<p>What&#39;s the most memorable building you&#39;ve lived in?<br /><span style="FONT-SIZE: 0.8em">Submitted by <a at:user-xid="6p00c2251cb63a8fdb" class="enclosure-inline-user" href="http://shelly.vox.com/">Shelly</a>.</span><br /></p></blockquote>
<p> Hm. There&#39;s a tie here between my university halls of residence, and my apartment in Germany. Neither were especially attractive or nice buildings in which to live, but in both I was surrounded by good people (and a few annoying people, too), who mostly&#160;became good friends.&#160;Living at both places has taught me to be&#160;a lot more of a sociable person.. I thought it&#39;d be impossible for me to survive living with a bunch of strangers for a whole year, let alone make friends among the bunch.</p>
<p>They had their share of annoyances, though. The first night that I was ever properly living away from home, at halls, a fire alarm went off at 3 in the morning, this particular fire alarm is placed right above your head, and perhaps the very&#160;loudest noise ever. In Germany, friends got into the habit of (when I was the only one living on the bottom floor of the five story building) stealing some crap from the street and leaving it on my balcony (once I found a defunct&#160;bike and another time, a rotating sign from a dentist with a huge bunny on it), or flashing lights through my window while I was sleeping. Very unnerving things to wake up to indeed.&#160;There was the occasional bout of wrestling on the corridor, too.</p>
<p>Many, many silly memories</p>   <p style="clear:both;">

I&#39;m a big fan of the eastern European/Russian accent, mostly for it&#39;s comedy value.&#160; If I were to pick a new accent for myself, I&#39;d probably go for a light Edinburgh-ish. However, I attatch far more value to the qualities of a person&#39;s voice, than their accent.</p><p>I encounter very few <em>voices</em> that I really enjoy listening to, whatever the accent. </p>   <p style="clear:both;">
