<p>If your roomie didn´t sleep much. Let´s say she usually did work or whatever (not in the room) until 3 or 4 in the morning then came into the room and went to bed quietly on school nights. Then got up at about 7 in the morning, got ready for class quietly, and left the room.</p>
<p>Um...that would basically describe me last year.</p>
<p>Well...I would work til 2 or 3 if I was on a deadline...other than that I was just up goofing around. But yea, that's me.</p>
<p>It wouldn't bug me if my roommate wasn't in the room while doing her work.</p>
<p>But my roommate last year stayed up late doing her homework last year (3 in the morning was common) and I go to bed early (by midnight most nights) so I had a lot of problems with it. If she hadn't been doing work in the room, I would have been asleep and never would've noticed.</p>
<p>Hey......this is not a problem. I had a roommate who stayed up all nite many nites and went to bed at 9am or so and slept all day. I frequently stay up all nite and work.....well until the wee wee hours. What is usually a problem is the alarm going off repeatedly for the not so easy or willing to get up people. Late hours are not the problem.....early risers are not the problem.....the alarm is the problem because few kids get up right when it goes off.</p>
<p>That's my roommate right now. I don't wake up when she comes in late, but sometimes she can be a bit loud in the morning, but she's usually pretty good about trying to keep the noise down. It doesn't really bug me at all.</p>
<p>no</p>
<p>just be as quiet as you can, and bring a flashlight, so you can find something you might need when the roomie is asleep without turning on the light.</p>
<p>also, going to sleep while someone is typing (+ desk light on) shouldn't be that bad. Afterall, it is their room as well, and they should be able to work on their computer when they need to.</p>
<p>As long as you're not loud, I don't see why it'd be annoying... Lights bother me, but not once I've fallen asleep, so... not weird.</p>
<p>Yeah, just so long as you're not making a ruckus in the room, it's not a problem. And as long as you don't have a freakishly loud alarm clock that you don't wake up to (I had a summer roommate who had to wake up at 5:30ish every morning for health reasons, but she didn't hear her alarm, so I had to get out of bed, shake her awake, and then go back to bed for another few hours of sleep... every morning. But that's okay, she was awesome in other respects and we totally got along -- I consider her proof that roommate selection does tend to work out OK).</p>
<p>Most people are pretty cool about it. I only know of one person whose roomate made her leave the room to write a paper so at 2 in the morning she was across campus in the 24 hour computer lab because her roomate apparently couldn't sleep because of light from the computer...even with the computer facing away from her. But yeah most people are cool with it, just don't become a snooze button addict</p>
