I Have a Question

Is there anyways to get some privacy at my place, my neighbors are always talking loud in the halls and i cant get anything done. Im in school and i cant even do homework here. I have to wait till i can go to the college library, shes very hyperactive and will talk to anyone she sees out in the halls, I dont feel like i can really do anything cause its not a crime to talk but she has a loud voice and it might be quiet for 5 minutes but then shes out again, she'll go in and out all day long constantly talking, she rarely goes out so theres no break there. I cant just move cause its hud and im out of work, I might have a job soon handing out samples in stores so that will be a big help if i want to move or at least get away from her, i just find it exhausting to hear someone constantly talk, I run a fan but i still hear her, i already wear earplugs at night so i dont want to wear them during the day too. it hurts my ears. any suggestions? and anyone else going thru this, i think i have ADD cause i cant tune her out.
I don't think it's ADD, some things are just annoying. I usually say "it's not the first half hour of the neighbor's dog barking constantly...". Just to relate, I've had neighbors from hell. I hate to say this, but if there's no legal recourse, then there isn't much you can do to remove her. That leaves things you can do:
1. Noise cancelling earbuds, etc. Since you don't work, not sure how you can afford these.
2. White noise generators, you've tried a fan, the simplest one is to blast the "static" on a radio (I had a friend who did this). There are some for free on the 'net.
3. Talk to the super about relocating. I know you said you can't "move", but there must be other locations within HUD.

Ask her nicely don't talk in front of my door. If that doesn't work tell her can you tone it down few decimals If you have to talk.

Politely ask her to keep it down because your uncle Vinnie is visiting from Jersey. You might throw in some quick mention of "Hoffa" and see if they'll shut up.
