Because I hadn't Written in so Long....

We just had the loudest, scariest fire alarm of my life (we're all safe, false alarm, just a big pain in the ass).

So, the smarter kids (read: not me) made a point of grabbing their passports on the way out.  I'm not that good at planning.  I had my key and a sweatshirt and THAT IS ALL.  If this building had actually gone up in flames, I'd be trapped here forever (technically, I can think of worse fates, but still).  I feel like this has been an important life lesson: ALWAYS GRAB YOUR PASSPORT!  Or, don't burn popcorn in a dorm (really, it's a twofer).

Okay, I'm gonna try to go back to sleep.  Yes, this is a futile gesture and I'm well aware of that, but it's either that or find a pub that's open.  And it's a Monday.
