Lost
I tried to make coffee from the beans that Shayna had. I was wondering I could just boil water and put the coffee beans into the water and let them soak. Shayna showed up as I was doing this and she said I had to ground them up. So I did, but when I tried to pour the hot water over them the filter moved and so I just got a bunch of grounds in my water.
Later on, I was still in Kresge East and some kind of battle was going to take place. Part of it may have had to do with spilled coffee beans. The balcony was just a big plank connected to all the other houses, and we were very high up in a canopy. After the battle was over, there were corn kernels everywhere and I was going to leave after I swept them up. I went to go take a shower. Everyone had orange bath towels and we were all fighting to get into the door and shower first. I realized that this wasn't even my own house and I could go take a shower in my bathroom.
So I went out the back door of this person's house. I tried to go in the direction where my house would normally be, but since I went out the back door everything was switched around. I wandered for a long time and was just getting progressively more lost. All the while I am in a bath towel. It was night when I started and I was climbing over balconies and asking people where to go. This black security gaurd lady asked me if I needed help and so I asked her how to get to Kresge East. She tried to explain it to me, but kept tripping on her words and would say something then realize she was wrong. I got fed up with her and started being kind of rude, she said she would come with me to help me find it. I apologized to her for being rude, and said that I wasn't mad at her, I was just pissed off about this whole situation. She said she understood and we started walking.
We were walking through the Cowell Apartments and they were like the ones near Kresge, but absolutely packed with people. They fit about twice the number of apartments into the same space, and some of the apartments on the first floor were actually shops and resturaunts. The streets were crowded with students, mostly surfers and pot-smokers and the like, and I noticed that these apartments were built right on the beach. The surf was huge and people were walking out to it from the street. I decided that this has to be the best housing on campus, and that I really wanted to live here. The security gaurd lady and I decided to cut through a shop.
We went inside, the security gaurd lady now had a stroller with a baby in it. And were going by windows filled with brightly-colored stuffed animals. I could see the baby looking at all of them, and she started to smile. I commented on how cute that was. We got to the end of the store and came to a stairway on our right, and a way out to the main street on our left. The stairway looked like it led into the apartments, and I didn't know where the main street would take us. I was very very scared of choosing the wrong way, remembering how easily I got lost to begin with.
