How to Unclog a Cup of Ramen from the Toilet?

So I flushed an empty Styrofoam cup of ramen down the toilet in my dorm room.

Now, nothing flushes. What can I do to solve this on my own?

I've flushed the toilet several times, and it hasn't flooded yet, but I can assume it's rather down in the pipes.

Other than calling for assistance, what can I do MYSELF to fix this problem?

Update:

PS: I do NOT have access to the toilet tank. I'm on the eighth floor, and that's just how they decided to make the bathrooms, I guess.

    Discontinue flushing the toilet! lol It is stuck deep down there and there is nothing you can do on your own to get it out. Call whoever you need to, stuff getting stuck in toilets is very common especially in a dorm... maintenance will have to use a long snake like object to clear the pipe. It's really no big deal.

    Better hurry up and call before YOU need to use the toilet and have to go in a cup of your own lol

    You would need a snake to break the cup up. I would think you could call maintence to fix it for you....NO?
