must be wondering what on earth am i doing blogging at this ungodly hour of the night... well, i can't sleep and NO, i have not gone mad. was awaken from my sweet slumber by my dear housemate who set off the fire alarm about half an hour ago. i havnt a clue what he burnt... probbly toast... but deffie he burnt something. the house is reeking of something burnt. and that's coming from me, the girl who's having a 'leaking' nose and can hardly smell anything. *sigh*
so there i was, peacefully asleep, unbothered by my cold or coughs, dreaming of my prince charming... and then, "BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!" *sigh*
what have i done this time??? or not done... :p
he seems to be waking me up from my sleep really often these days... or mebbe it's becos i've been sleeping soo much, no thanks to sudafed.
it's been about a year since i was disturbed in my sleep by the fire alarm. i remember camden court and its' ritual "at least once a week" false alarms. and i can seriously say that it often occurs somewhere around this time... it got so frequent that at one point, i can almost predict when the alarms are about to go off. well, ok fine... not predict, but i know... why? cos the culprits seem to live right above my flat... everytime, just about 5-10 minutes before the alarm rings, i would hear a stampede and doors slamming. *sigh*
i remember having to put on warm clothing and then do the walk out into the cold... and then see that there are SOME people who are fully dressed and holding a cup of coffee... WOW! fire alarms go off and these people can get fully dressed and make themselves a cup of coffee... i don't know how blind the resident co-ordinators were but seriously... don't u think these people are suspects?! yes, i agree that they could be not asleep yet when the alarm goes off... but still??? *sigh*
one thing i noted was..... during the hols, there would be NO FALSE FIRE ALARMS. no alarms ringing at ungodly hours of the night when most people have gone home and the only ones left staying there are those who can't go home cos home is just tooo far away.

*hmm* now what does that say???
there was a point when i gave up going out... i just locked myself in my room and kept as quiet as a mouse until my flatmates came back. unfortunately, that caught on too and soon, my whole flat would not go out anymore... *lol* we did get caught once... but that was when we were so stoopid not to hide. *gosh* so notti!!!
yes, there were times when the fire alarms ring for real... ie, someone forgot to turn off the stove and thus, burnt a meal; someone sprayed perfume/room fagrance/hair spray right below the sensors; someone set off fireworks in the corridor... yeaps, u read that last one right... someone really set off fireworks in the corridor!!! oOh.. that's when the fire engines really came... my goodness, at the speed they go, people don't die in the fire, they die from being hit by the engines! :p
oops, i floated off... anyways...
yes, there were times when the fire alarms ring for real but on a ratio, for real v false alarms would be like 1:100!!! geez... and u would think that these people would be more civillised. don't they have anything else better to do?!
anyways, that was the past... i'm no longer staying there so i'm no longer afflicted by that. until tonight that is... *sigh*
heyy... wait a minute, i can take yet another sudafed and then i can sleep! it has been past 4 hours since i last took one... *hmmmmmz*
(p/s : i might have been talking nonsense... pls understand that it's 3am edi and i can't sleep... but, lo siento!)
one dance. just one.
