Tornado Warning...AGAIN

1-22-10

So I was in the middle of watching my online class when I heard the sirens outside and knew that I was about to have to go to the dorm basement. So I paused the video, gathered up my homework, headphones and computer, grabbed my ID card and headed to the basement, all with the annoying voice alarm blaring.

In the basement I found an outlet, plugged in, and tried to turn on the campus wireless. Shoulda figured, but I discovered that it doesn't work in the basement of Thatcher South--so I couldn't watch the rest of the class. So I turned on iTunes and stuck my headphones in my ears and read for Arts and Ideas. I had the music up LOUD because the people next to me were giggling and watching Friends. I don't hold it against them, but some of us had homework that we were going to finish. :D

After about half an hour, forty-five minutes or so, I was allowed to go back upstairs. I watched the last ten minutes of class, finished reading for Arts and Ideas, revised my essay that's due today, submitted it to Turnitin, read for American History II, and then I went to bed. *sigh* I didn't get to go exercise because I was sitting in the basement because "a tornado has been spotted in your county..."

I am SO glad that it is Friday. Now if the severe weather can be kept to a minimum, that would be nice. Also, as a random thought, I am toying with creating a blog dedicated just to writing. I'll keep you updated on that.
