Yes, you read the subject line right; there was another fire. I know, I know, I just wrote about Monday's fire YESTERDAY, but hey, don't think I'm writing about the same fire again. I'm talking about last night's fire. x_x

So, I just finished taking a shower and it was about 8:50 or so and I was putting on my sweatshirt and stuff and then I hear Noelle and Lauren screaming that there was a fire and to GET OUT NOW! and I was thinking, 'Holy shit! Is it in their room?!~' 'cause they were screaming and stuff. So I just grabbed my keys and phone and left 'cause yeah. I wasn't about to stay to grab other stuff if the fire was in OUR suite.

It was freezing cold outside. Sucked ass. And yeah.. I was just talking on the phone and talking to Charis mostly.. Then later, Charis left to hang with friends and I was just hanging with my suitemates.

The fire was worst than Monday's. It was in building 8 again and Brooke was the one who pulled the fire alarm 'cause they were watching a movie in their room and then they smelt smoke, looked out the window, and saw the tree right next to the window on fire. From what I heard other people saying, it was on the third floor and/or the wall between building 8 and 7.. Yeah, something like that. Okay, it started in the same suite as yesterday's fire, but this time, the whole building was on fire.

A lot of people are saying it's electrical, that BOTH were electrical, even though they're blaming the girl yesterday for smoking and turning off their smoke detector, but from what I heard other people saying, she wasn't even in the room at the time and the fire started from her mattress. x_x

So yeah.. we were just standing around outside forever, then around 9:45, they let buildings 7 and 9 back in, so we went back, but OMG our suite was horrible-smelling. I can't believe they let us in so soon, when yesterday, it wasn't even as bad and they wouldn't let us in for hours! x_x

Just went to the guys' suite to hang out and was just talking on the phone and stuff.. Later on, around 11:15, Noelle told me that Charis' room didn't smell at all and that I could stay there, so I went to check it out and yeah. There wasn't even a hint of smoke in her air! @_@ That's so weird 'cause my room had a bit of smoke smell in it and my room is a bit further away. o_O But whatever.. Went to brush my teeth and told Charis I would brave my room 'cause it wasn't that bad, but yeah.. And I ddn't really want to inconvenience Charis, you know, so yeah.

Hard to fall asleep last night 'cause the firemen and trucks were still there and being all loud and there was still smoke smell lingering in the room, so yeah.. But I guess I eventually fell asleep and when I woke up, I felt rested. I think it's just 'cause I haven't been getting real sleep in the last few days, so yeah..

So yeah.. two fires, in a row, in the same ass building. No matter what they say now, no one will believe it's anything but Stenner's fault. 'Cause, I mean, seriously! If they blamed someone for smoking last time and evicted them and are charging them and stuff, you'd think people wouldn't smoke in their rooms RIGHT after a fire, so yeah. And the fact that it's in the same building as the day before? Exactly. I feel so bad for the people who live in building 8.. They must be scared for their lives now.

There's no way I'm living here next year. I dun know where I'm gonna go, but hell no am I staying here. It's too dangerous and I'm sure a lot of people think the same.

If there's a fire today, OMG.. I might just die from this. I mean, WTF?!~

So yeah.. no internet 'cause either they cut us off or the fire got to it.. Will be posting when I get to school, I guess...

Fire...

So last night, I was already in bed and everything and talking to [livejournal.com profile] bobbleheadvi and it was about 11:00 and people were being freakin' loud outside and I was thinking, 'WTF?! It's only Monday!' and stuff and was wondering why no one was quieting them down and then someone comes into our suite and is like, "Everyone evacuate! There's a fire next door. You have to get out now!" And when she first started talking, I was like, 'Huh.. Maybe I should get up..' and laid there for, like, another 30 seconds before getting up. I mean, seriously. If someone had the time to come up the stairs to tell us to evacuate and no one in the suite even believes her at first, then it must not be that serious, right?

I totally had enough time to change if I wanted, but I was like whatever and just went out. It was cold and smoky outside and it sucked. The fire was in the building next to ours and the two buildings are connected, so yeah. It was in suite B, from what I heard, which is on the right side, connected to our side, but B is on the ground level, so yeah. And yeah.. I don't get the point in evacuating us when we were all still just standing in front of our building. I mean, seriously! But yeah.. Really smoky and gross and eww. Was out there forever just standing around and talking to Charis, Kitto, and Stephanie.

So around 12:00 or whatever, basically everyone could go back to their suites, but the people in suite A in our building ((suite below us)) and our suite were still told to stay out. x_x So went into B 'cause they invited us to hang if we couldn't go back in.. Just sat around their common room for a while, then decided to just go to our suite. Went up and in and it was smoky and stuff, but mine and Charis' room were okay 'cause we had our doors closed and windows closed. The others had their windows open and stuff, so they went to the guys' suite.

Changed my clothes 'cause I felt like I smelt really smoky. Then was just in bed and then about five minutes later, the custodian came in, knocking on all our doors 'cause we weren't suppose to be in our suite yet. x_x So, seeing as me and Charis were the only ones in there, we had to leave and was just sitting around outside in the courtyard area. After a while, we decided to just go to the guys' suite to hang out until they let us back into our suite, so went up and was just sitting around in their common watching Beverly Hills Ninjas. Finally, they let us back into our suite around 1:00.

Tried to sleep, but it was hard 'cause it was a little noisy still and the fire trucks were still there with their lights on and my bed is right by the window, so I see that. x_x I don't think I got much sleep. =(

My chest feels all stuffy and stuff from the smoke.. ARGH! I mean, it still smells, you know.. And just because my room was mostly safe didn't mean there wasn't smoke still lingering and stuff and coming in from the hall and all that..

I feel bad for the people who couldn't go back to their suites.. I dunno where they stayed, but yeah..

Matt said that the room that had the fire is completely trashed.. Like, everything. That sucks ass. And it was a double too, so yeah. =/


I need to get working on my drawings now.. Will go to the library around 10:00 or something...

8:13 // Saw a shopping center and then the Modonna Inn.

8:16 // Exit on California Blvd.

8:19 // Went to Carl's Jr. to get food. Ate a breakfast sandwich.


And that concludes what I wrote. Anywayz.. After that, went to Stenner Glen and by then, it was almost 9:00. Found Building 7 and someone opened the door, so went in and went up to my room. Started filling out the move-in paper, then the RA came and I went and got my keys and my parents started moving in my stuff. Then spent the rest of that time between then and 1:30 moving things and organizing and yeah. Hella tiring.

After we finished, went to Cal Poly and checked in for WOW. Got my wristband and everything, then went to Yosemite Hall for the Honors Reception. Ate some cookies, then some lady talked a little, then had to take pics. After that, played a "Getting to know each other" game where we just introduced ourselves, where we lived, where we're from, what our major is, and what cartoon character we want to be. I was near the end. I just said I wanted to be Hello Kitty since I was wearing a Hello Kitty shirt. XP After that, it was 3:00, so went and picked up my textbooks, then went to the bookstore to get my architecture kit thing. After that, went to stand in line to get my picture taken for my PolyCard. Damn, hella long line. x_x
Got my picture taken at 4:00 ((waited an hour!!)), got my card, then went to go eat again at Carl's Jr. Got a Carne Asada Burrito. After that, went to Albertson's to get milk and to get a Perferred card, then went back to my room and then my parents left. It was 6:00.

Been writing this post and listening to music and occasionally chatting with people since that time. I need to take a shower soon, but I'm kinda scared 'cause yeah.. I don't know. Never done this before, ya know.

I'm really tired, but I wanna read and do some stuff online.. BLEH!

Tomorrow, need to meet my group at 9:00, so gotta get up a bit earlier to get food. Also need to fill out my paperwork for Stenner Glen.. BLEH!

Okay, gonna stop this entry now. It looks all long from my.. transcription of the journey, or whatever. XP

So we didn't walk today 'cause we were lazy asses. Got up around 9:00 or so and ate.. Got ready then left around 10:30. Went to Kearny and then talked to SGM a bit then hung with [livejournal.com profile] bobbleheadvi. Apparently, SIB had a meeting and all the other peoplez either went to that or were too busy talking to teachers or whateverz. Obviously we ((read: [livejournal.com profile] aznearthdragon since this was all her stuff)) were the ones outta the loop and we wasted our precious time going to school. Around 12:25, we left. That was about an hour and 45 minutes down the freakin' drain. AND no freakin' meeting. I guess they had one later on after we were gone, but I don't know what to think 'cause [livejournal.com profile] bobbleheadvi told me that there was another meeting tomorrow. S'not like we're [livejournal.com profile] aznearthdragon's gonna go though 'cause one, it's freakin' 20 minutes away by freeway; two, gas is hella expensive; and three, apprently no one cares that we actually have to TRAVEL there as oppose to living about 15-45 minutes of walking away ((that translates to about anywhere between one to five minutes of driving local for those who can't think)). So yeah.. I say screw them. Whatevz.

Anywayz.. after that, my dad came to pick us up and then we went to Costco. Bought jackets -- me and [livejournal.com profile] aznearthdragon both got brown ones, haha. It's okay though since we're not gonna be living in the same place.. What a sad thought... ;_;

After that, went home and just read and listened to music.

Gotta my room assignment in the mail. =O I will be living in 7C6 @ Stenner Glen. It kinda sucks though 'cause they don't tell you who your suitemates will be.. I wanna know 'cause I don't really want hella loud or partying suitemates, ya know? But I was stupid 'cause when I signed up, I forgot to check that I wanted to be in the 24hr quiet building. x_x Oh wellz..


[EDITED (08-22-2006 @ 8:56 PM PST)]: Forgot to say that [livejournal.com profile] bobbleheadvi brought me cheesecake that he made and it was GOOD. XP
