Roof Adventure 2 & 3

Well, I haven't been keeping up with my blogs, which I need to, so this is a double whammy. I have had two other roof adventures since the last story:

-The eldest of the two happened last spring, my last day here on campus before returning home for the summer. My closet of a room had a huge window overlooking a closed-in hallway that connected Providence Hall and the Chapel. So, yes, I technically live in a church (more or less). So, Sarah and I removed the screen and, without much thought, we escaped to the roof. This act had been on my mind all year but was always out of the question, seeing how Sarah was my RA and lived right next to me. But, being the last day, we decided to be deviant. We did a few sprints over to the chapel connection, sprayed some silly string off into the bushes, and then went back in.

This may seem dumb and not a big deal, but it was actually pretty big because Sarah and I were and still are on probation for seran-wrapping a car. But, that's another story.

-The second adventure just happened this weekend, actually. Our new boss, Sarah W. is pretty much the best boss ever, and so we had to show her some of our old stomping grounds (as RAs). The adventure started out as a drug bust, in fact, and ended empty-handed. We searched the bushes for bongs and such, and then, decided to see if we could still get on the roof. Trevor and Sarah R. (from the other adventure) had access to a roof access code (yet another story), and the code was still good. So, there the four of us were: crawling up the roof hatch. When we reached the top, we peered over the edge and held a short vigil watching for students heading toward the bushes. It ended abruptly when a car pulled up, and we had to hide. We soon retreated in fear of being seen, and then, fired.

I just realized that many of my stories have to do with possibly getting fired. Hmm...
