Birfffday! :P

So, Monday was my birthday. Yayy. Unfortunately, Mondays are my busiest days. Not yayy. I went to class and failed a quiz, ew. Then I went to a two hour meeting, which fortunately got out a bit earlier than scheduled. So following this meeting I sat with a friend of mine and discussed life and all it's eh-ness lately. After using up an extra hour than I had planned, I came home to a ridiculously decorated room. (best roommate, ever, let me just tell you!) It pretty much made my birthday.

This followed a text from a friend of mine, in effort to keep me from going to my room to soon and ruining the surprise, to go to her room after my meeting. Well I was carrying ridiculous amounts of things such as: a box of stuff, papers, a wrapped 5 Hour Energy from said friend I discussed life with, a water bottle and other miscellaneous items. So, naturally, I wanted to take all this to my room before I ventured to anyone's room. So I get to my room, and I see my beautiful door decorated in birthday streamer! I then walk into a room where I'm greeted by a roommate saying "You would have ruined the surprise! You're supposed to go to K's room!" Well, thank you for the birthday wishes!

I then sat at my desk working on homework, only to get bombarded with people throwing about 25 balloons in my room by people yelling "Happy Birthday!!" This was fun. My day ended sitting in the lobby doing homework with one of the RA's in my hall, and almost died! I'm just getting over being sick, so I have that awful "getting-over-being-sick-so-I'm-going-to-cough-up-a-lung" cough. It's not fun, and I almost died!

Then, it hit midnight and became my friend's birthday. SOO I bombarded her with a text, facebook wall post, and wishing her happy birthday when I ran into her in the hall. She's one of my best friends, so hopefully she didn't mind to much! :) tee hee :P

So this was my birthday, and it was.. well, it was a Monday! :)

Fire Alarms.

Let me just share with you my love of fire alarms. They're the most purposeful use of my time... NOT. They're one of those perks of living in college dorms that just so happen to never get mentioned, ever. That is until you're minding you own business at midnight, nonetheless, and you hear BEEP BEEP BEEP. Thank you college kids that don't know how to use an oven properly. You'd think people of this age were capable of being trusted with fire, but apparently you'd be thinking incorrectly.


Perks you're told about for living in Freshman dorms:
You meet tons of new people - True.
You will have lots of new friends around you - probably not, these people are the same people you see every day, and once freshman year is over how many of those people do you think you'll still talk to? Exactly.
Moving on...
Study rooms open 24 hours - Yes they are, they're also usually occupied by people listening to music and/or talking with friends sitting next to them or on Skype.
You get all the information you need through your RA's - This one is a true one, unless you get unlucky with a crappy RA, but that's unlikely.

And so we move to perks that usually aren't mentioned:
Fire alarms in the middle of the night - They happen, and it's especially fun when it's ridiculously cold outside.
The pleasure of community bathrooms - You'll hear they aren't that bad... FALSE. These bathrooms are miserable, think about having to walk about three miles to go to the bathroom when you wake up in the morning having to pee like a crazy woman... NOT FUN.
And then there are roommates - They tell you roommate's aren't that bad, this is also incredibly incorrect. While I love my roommate this semester, I had two not so awesome roommie's last semester. I'm pretty sure one wanted to kill me and the other was just a psycho, crazy lady.

So back to my point about fire alarms, they're like the spawn of Satan. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP... stuck in your ears yet? No? BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP... wanting to pull your hair out yet? Well, just for good measure BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP. I'm sure you can hear those damn fire alarms in your head now!



Ahh, fire alarms in the middle of the night. Did I mention how much I love them? :)

Hi !

So after sitting with my friend for weeks as she's keeping up with her blog, I decided to write my own. It seemed like loads of fun! So I shall sit here and divulge all my inner thoughts in writing to the mysterious readers of the internet. Sounds like a good time, right? Yeah, I'm really not so sure how this is going to work out. You're welcome along on the journey, and I hope you enjoy the random and completely useless inner thoughts that will eventually make it on to this page.

Welcome to my new blog, let's see if this works! :)
