Last year I lived opposite Jubilee Campus, which was a good 200 metres away, therefore I had the view of the campus, without people being able to see me from that distance. .. well.. between myself and the campus, were some unsightly Gas Towers, a train line, and industrial works, however we'll discount that.
I was used to getting changed freely with my bedroom curtains drawn..except for that one unfortunate time when I was woken up at about 2am by some people who had the audacity to be working very noisly on the trainlines. I walked to the window to observe the situation, and they noticed me in the window.
Turns out that I happened to be naked at the time (I sleep naked). They saw.. what I can guess.. as everything. I was hoping that the mirror on the window ledge would conceal my breasts, but it just didn't turn out that way.
Anyway, now I live opposite another block of students, and its intruguing to see what they're doing etc etc, but I continue to forget that they can easily see into my room, especially at night when I'm getting changed and have the lights on. Sometimes it looks like people are staring for ages at you, but if you look closer, it turns out that its someone's back that you're looking at.. or possibly even some misshapen curtains.
Well, at least I'm living on the top floor. A friend (who shall remain nameless) had a boyfriend last year who lived on the bottom floor. Sometime during the evening, they decided to get down to it, forgetting that the curtains were open. Her boyfriend's flatmates took this opportunity to invite a select crowd of people to view the 'spectacle'.
Thank god that wasn't me!
