My continued adventures with the fire alarm
Even though my school is ranked #12 on the Princeton Review's list of worst college food, I've quite enjoyed our meal selection over the past few terms with very few exceptions. This year it has been even better, because they recently hired a new pastry chef who is just... guhhhh... I think she is dedicated to making sure every new student puts on the freshman fifteen! I have to remember to limit myself to one tiny slice once a day at the most, but it's just so hard to resist. At dinner tonight I was due for a piece of chocolate cream pie, and man did it look good. The moment I got back to my seat, fork in hand, poised and ready to treat my taste buds, the flippin' fire alarm just HAS to go off and kick us all out! Whhhhy???! Man!! In hindsight I guess I should have just taken the pie with me, but my brain has been conditioned to resist any urges to remove the dishes from the dining hall, and it simply did not occur to me that there might be some moral leeway in this case. So my poor uneaten piece of pie was left behind... I waited in the lobby for about fifteen minutes before giving up and coming back to my room. My stomach is sad :(
ETA: Just so this post isn't all doom and gloom, I went by the library today to pick up the North and South DVD. Hmmm, I think we can all guess what I will be doing this weekend! Unfortunately, I also have a paper to write for Saturday, but Richard Armitage should provide a nice break for my studying.
