Exercise machines, my exercise machine making weird banging sounds, distant music
1. 3/7/12 12:30 am My suite on campus
2. The sounds farthest away from me are people banging on the floor above me/my ceiling and talking.
3. The sounds at a medium range from me are my suitemates laughing in their bedroom and the t.v. that is on.
4. The sounds closest to me are my HVAC running heat and my clock ticking on the wall. I can also hear my breathing.
5. The general sound level is somewhat low and the activity is moderate, but there is a mix between sporadic and steady sounds.
6. I would describe this sound environment as “distracting”.
7. Three sounds essential to this sound environment are my suitemates laughing, the people above me making banging sounds, and my clock ticking. These are the usual sounds I hear from my room when trying to go to bed.
