With Halloween right around the corner and everyone itching to have a great time, now is the season for noise complaints and annoyed neighbours breaking up your fun! It doesn\u2019t always have to be this way though, and you can have a perfectly harmonious and fun apartment party while taking the concerns of your neighbours seriously \u2013 even if they may be jerks. Here are some easy ways to get people on your side so even if you are a bit loud, no one will want to break the party up.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re just having a small gathering of four or five friends, you obviously don\u2019t need to tell anyone because you won\u2019t be making lots of noise. That being said, if you\u2019re going to have a big party, it\u2019s best to let everyone around you know it might get a little noisy. Tell them ahead of time, either by door-knocking or passing a letter under your neighbours\u2019 doors. They\u2019ll appreciate the forewarning. Consider taping a few pairs of ear plugs to each letter as a cheeky, but thoughtful gesture.<\/p>\n
One of the easiest and most effective ways to get people to be on your side is to include them! We live in a time where we only really interact with the people we already know, so why not branch out a bit and try to make a few friends? This works especially well if they know you aren\u2019t a crazy, inconsiderate neighbour (see point #1), and can make your relationship much smoother. Who knows, you may even make great friends!<\/p>\n
Even the greatest parties need to wrap up and move on at some point, particularly apartment parties. You do need to be respectful of the neighbours\u2019 rights to a reasonable amount of sleep. Rather than partying in your apartment until 4 am, head out at midnight to your local bar, pub or club and finish the night off somewhere that your crew can be as loud as you want.<\/p>\n
Look, you\u2019ve got to show your face in your apartment building after the party, so you\u2019re going to keep things at an acceptable level. Fights, keg stands and actually jumping around to Jump Around are fine in res, but not in apartments. Have fun, but don\u2019t be a jerk, and you\u2019ll be fine!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
