breaking and entering

finals.

at EBC we have two weeks worth of hard core paper writing and test taking. needless to say, late nights are the norm at the end of the semester. however, simi valley is having a study-environment famine.

if we stay home, we fall asleep
we have been kicked out of the donut shop
dennys is grose
starbucks is closed
red motorcycle
power outlets are necessary
danny needs to sleep, so we leave

one night, emily and i (beth) were working on our teaching cirruculums for Theo I at danny parkers house, but since all of the guys needed to sleep, we felt like it was appropriate for us to leave. we really needed to keep working , but we had nowhere to go. i suggested that we go to my sister's house in chatsworth. so we got a bit of gas and headed over to the valley..

we pulled up to the house and realized that we had forgotten to call and ask to come over :/ I used emily's phone to call my sister, but she did not know the number so she didnt answer. i then walked up to the front door and jiggled the latch to see if it was open. nope.

i decided to go around to the back door, which is usually unlocked, and carefully walk in, gently wake my sister up and tell her that we were going to use her kitchen table to study.

so far so good: i walked through the back gate and peeked in the back window. there was a computer with a you tube video going, a cup next to it, and a blanket still shaped like the butt that had just gotten up off of it. whoever was there must have gone to the bathroom, so i walked in....

as i roll the sliding glass door closed behind me, i hear emily g. (sister's roomate) yell "GET OUT!" she comes around the corner with a shoe raised high above her head, ready for action. two seconds later, once she realizes what is going on, she falls to the ground and we all start laughing...

when i shook the front door latch, they heard it and went and looked out the front door. when the did not see anyone, they moved thier attention to the back yard where they saw me (dressed in dark colors) moving carefully past the glass door to peek in the window. they were for sure startled, but relieved to find out that it was just me.

we all got a kick out of it, woke my sister up with our screams, and then got to work on that teaching cirriculum

haha, the next night we caved in and went to dennys to finish our papers
