Midnight Surprise
I just returned to my room after being forceably removed....The clock just hit 12:00. I was turning things off, putting away books for tomorrow, and generally getting ready for bed. My headphones were pumping out my new favorite song, Mae - sun (the acoustic version to be specific). Then a shrill tears through my noise canceling headphones.
What the hell?
My roommate and I look at each other. "what is that?!"
People start popping out their doors. There's a flashing light in our common room. CRAP, it's the fire alarm. Outside, the ENTIRE DORM starts flooding out. Over 1000 people. We stand in the cold Berkeley night, the moon barely visible through the overcast sky. I felt miserable for the girl I saw who was caught in the shower. Her hair was still soaked and she must have been completely frozen.
The police arrive. Then the fire department. They search almost every room for the source. Is it a real fire? Is this just a drill? Almost after half an hour, we are all let in. We are informed of the culprit - a bag of burnt popcorn.
