It's 10:40 AM and I've been awake for over an hour. Which is not normal because I A) am in college B) don't have class and C) didn't fall alseep until 5:00 or so last night (I was working on my transfer application. And taking care of people.) So why am I awake? BECAUSE A FIRE ALARM WENT OFF AT 9:45. And we all ended up crowded outside in our pjs and ballet flats (the unlucky ones were barefoot, wearing their underwear and a blanket) where we lolled about for a a good fifteen minutes. The smart kids who had remembered their keys went off to the dining hall while the rest of us waited until we could finally troop back inside. As soon as we made it up to our floor (the third) though.... It went off AGAIN. Eventuallly that stopped too, and we all returned to our dorms to feel sorry for the adjacent building as we could still here their alarms going off. What I wanted most was to crawl back into bed, but oh no, that was not about to happen as some sort of construction involving power saws had begun directly outside my window. So I went and got some OJ, and now here I am about to explode of exhaustion and cold. But on the plus, I was the only girl who wasn't hung over, and now I have an excuse to stay in my pjs.
