It’s another quiet Sunday night, outside the wind is blowing
at least 50 mph making the rain drops seem like hail. I start sprinting towards
socialize hall dodging the pellets of rain only to find someone inside laughing
at me and three other people because he was watching us through a window.
Awkward. Red, Black, and I all hand our ids to desk guy to check in and we head
on over to group room number one where we find two other girls.
A very
important college holiday had recently occurred two days before, Halloween and
everyone seemed to be telling their stories of what they experienced. Blue was
showing everyone videos that she took of curly when she was what seemed to be
under the influence. Curly kept laughing and so did everyone else in the room
when the videos were sadder to watch than funny. Desk guy noticed how loud it
was getting and walked by and told us to settle down in a joking voice, warning
number one. Since his tone of voice wasn't that demanding everyone had just
continued on with their conversations once he walked away.
Almost thirty minutes later the room gets even
louder than before. So much for my Sunday night homework grind theory that I
had from before. There were about 6 or 7 girls in the room but it sounded like
all of campus was smashed into one room. Conversations about the weekend
continued to go on and it seemed like they were all trying to one up each
other. One person would tell a story, and then the next person tried to tell
their story slightly louder making it seem like it was better, and this cycle
just kept on going. Then, warning number. Glasses came into the room with a
strict attitude to set everyone straight. She called people out for not doing
work like people are supposed to (but never happens) and ordered everyone to
take out some piece of work. A whip had been cracked down on socialize hall
tonight.
After
glasses had finished scolding everyone, the room was back to a silent chatter.
Even though they weren't as loud as before, no one wanted to face the wrath of
glasses again so they all agreed on just doing their homework for the rest of
the time spent in the group room. The room was peaceful other than the
occasional grumble about how daylight savings messed someone up and that had
concluded the hour and a half spent on this live Sunday night.
