At first, I thought that it was the alarm on my iHome going off. However, I knew that I had set the alarm for 6:45, and I had also programmed it to wake up to my iPod. I rolled over and saw Carrie out of bed and putting on her coat. I thought that that was a strange sight, until I saw the flashing lights. Then I knew \u2013\u00a0 the fire alarm was going off.<\/p>\n<p>So, all of the kids living in Hanselman shuffled (more like sleep-walked) outside, and waited while the Worcester Fire Department came in and found what had caused it (someone was cooking an omelet and forgot about it. No, I\u2019m not really sure why someone was cooking an omelet of all things at 4:30 in the morning.). When they determined that it was safe, we were all allowed back inside. At 6:45, my iPod alarm did go off, and \u201cBurnin\u2019 Love\u201d started to play. Later on in the day, Carrie\u2019s shuffle started to play \u201cWe Didn\u2019t Start the Fire.\u201d Talk about ironic.<\/p>\n<p>Today hasn\u2019t really been all that eventful. I have an Intelligence paper due on Tuesday, and it\u2019s assigned length is seven to nine pages. I\u2019ve been organizing and writing that paper all day. Tomorrow, I get to work at Kimball and then study for my Latin test that is on Monday. I guess it\u2019s only fair. I did have an extremely fun weekend last week. I\u2019m currently writing this paper at Cool Beans, and the view is definitely distracting me!<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll try to update as much as I possibly can this coming week, but I don\u2019t think I\u2019m going to have much time.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/holycross.blogs.com\/.shared\/image.html?\/photos\/uncategorized\/2008\/02\/18\/100_1568.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/me.holycross.edu\/blogimages\/100_1568.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"100_1568\" width=\"100\" height=\"75\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/holycross.blogs.com\/.shared\/image.html?\/photos\/uncategorized\/2008\/02\/18\/100_1569.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/me.holycross.edu\/blogimages\/100_1569.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"100_1569\" width=\"100\" height=\"75\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/holycross.blogs.com\/.shared\/image.html?\/photos\/uncategorized\/2008\/02\/18\/100_1571.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/me.holycross.edu\/blogimages\/100_1571.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"100_1571\" width=\"100\" height=\"75\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/holycross.blogs.com\/.shared\/image.html?\/photos\/uncategorized\/2008\/02\/18\/100_1572_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/me.holycross.edu\/blogimages\/100_1572_2.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"100_1572_2\" width=\"100\" height=\"75\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/holycross.blogs.com\/.shared\/image.html?\/photos\/uncategorized\/2008\/02\/18\/photo_15.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/me.holycross.edu\/blogimages\/photo_15.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Photo_15\" width=\"100\" height=\"75\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The dictionary defines \u201ccacophony\u201d as a \u201charsh, grating, or discordant noise.\u201d Yes, that word is the only one that suffices to explain what woke me up yesterday morning at 4:30.
