Water stops

Is it usual that water stops two or three times a month in apartment complex?

I remember one time when I was a freshman at JSU, the city's pipe busted and for the next five days or so while they was fixing the pipe and refill the tank, there is no water in my dorm. That means no shower.

It was nasty. It was a week of final exams too. I had to study hard, go to class to take the tests, and I could not take shower. But since then they haven't had trouble with water supply.

I woke up around 9:30 a.m. today, it was a little late comparing other days but it was a good sleep. I don't have to wake up early because all my classes start at 7:00 p.m., but it's better to be up early because I can use more time for study or whatever I do.

Then I notice there was a paper notification on my door yesterday about water stop for the main water line repair. It says water stops from 9:30 to 3:30. So, I could not take shower this morning and I decided to stay in my apartment to study.

I think this is fourth or fifth time they stopped water since I moved in in August. It's like twice a month. One time was inspection by the city, so it was necessary. But it would be better if they could have fixed with one water stop.

I don't know what's wrong with main water line, but hopefully this time the water problem is fixed and everything goes without water stop.
