"i can't tell you what i learned from school, but i could sure tell you a story or two..."

last night i was crawling in to bed pretty early [[around eleven]] because i have class at 8, when i heard my roommate rachel scream, "kali! kali!" i personally thought it was another "devil bug" in our apartment and that it was nothing i needed to pay attention to. [[devil bugs are mutated caterpillar-centipede-spiders. we have an infestation]] the next thing i hear is, "HELP! the toilet is EXPLODiNG!" i just burst out laughing and ran across the apartment to rachel and liz's bathroom. there is water everywhere. we weren't quite sure what to do because what kind of college student has spare towels you can use to clean up POOP WATER!?! as we are discussing what to do about this dilemma, the toilet makes a gurgling noise and starts shooting water out the sides! we are all screaming like madmen [[except liz, who clogged it. she wouldn't come out of her room]] our only thought is, "run down the hall and wake the RA! she will help us!" well, we didn't think about how our RA has a baby and it is midnight...she didn't answer the door. so we went to get the 2nd floor's RA. after knocking about a hundred times, her husband opens the door. now he is a big man and he looked really pissed. [[my theory is they were in the middle of some quality husband-wife bonding time]] rachel explains to him that our toilet has puked all over our apartment and the water is coming out into the hall [[which is false. the water wasn't even close to the hall]] so big RA husband man thinks its a bigger deal than it is and starts sprinting down to our apartment while calling mario the maintenance man about this "emergency". to make a long story short, we ended up with lots of angry sleepy people in our apartment when they saw the toilet wasn't as bad as they thought. our manager and her drill sergeant husband even came because they thought it was bad [[which is bad news by the way. you do NOT want the sergeant and his wife in your apartment.]] mario was PiSSED. i'm pretty sure no one will believe us now if we have a real maintenance emergency. we are the girls that cried wolf [[or toilet explosion]]. we were super bummed about having to clean instead of sleeping, so our crazy neighbor jace did a nice little pole dance with the mop for us to "3 by britney spears" which pretty much made my night. it was worth an exploding toilet: i laughed so hard. he said i'm not allowed to show anyone the video but i'm still uploading it. don't tell him. so yeah anyway, we ended up having to go to walmart at about 1 a.m. to get cheap towels, bleach, and a mop to clean up our disgusting apartment. i got to bed around 4 i think...and no, i did not go to my 8 a.m. class. i LOVE COLLEGE!
i got ATTACKED by our new mop!
rachel was having a hard time accepting she had to clean her bathroom
kali, jace, and whitney pretty much just sat and laughed.
oh jace...
