Epoch's Dorm

[epoch]

Epoch walked into his dorm. It was decorated in Christmas stuff. He had a small tree that plugged into the wall. He plugged it in. His dorm wasn't very big, but he didn't mind. He had a bed, a tv, a gamecube, a bookshelf, a dresser, a desk (which housed his Dell). He had one window. His room was decorated in posters of all sorts, mainly of blown up pictures of his family (who he never saw b/c they lived in Ireland). He had a digital clock that was on his dresser. The room was painted white and the curtains were a darker shade of white.

Epoch had been here for two years, so he knew the routine. Epoch had pictures of home on his dresser. He always looked at them. He was tired from today's classes, and he wasn't hungry, so he decided to hang around his dorm for a while. He started to play Gamecube. He played MVP Baseball 2005.

As Epoch played Gamecube he felt as if something was wrong. He looked at the digital clock. "Oh my god!" he said. He went and changed into a navy blue shirt and some black pants. He was going to be late for dinner at Ms. Frost's apartment. He rushed out of the dorm, gamecube and tv still on.

Rand opened the door to his dorm. He was suprised to see his tv and Gamecube on still. He laughed. He went in to the adjacent bathroom to take a quick shower. He felt nasty after eating so much.

After he had finished his shower he went and lay down on the bed. He pulled out his Algebra Book and started to study.

[epoch]

While Rand was studying he realized he had another thing to do. Where is that paper? he thought. He went over to his computer desk and pulled out the drawer. He pulled out the Science Paper.

"I knew I was forgettin' somin". He went to Micrsoft Word and began to type.

Rand O'Ryan
Science Paper

The importance of the rainforest biome.....

[epoch]

He finished the paper in about thirty minutes. He was a quick typist and he came up with ideas pretty quick. He decided to draw. He drew a self portrait.

He messed up and crumpled the paper. He decided to turn the tv on. He went to HBO and began to watch "What's Eating Gilbert Grape?". It was about 40 minutes into the movie. He plopped down on the bed.

[epoch]

The movie ended with the house burning down with the huge mom in it. Rand's stomach gave a low rumble. "Dern, you'd think I wouldn't have to eat for a week the way I ate at Ms. Frost's apartment!" I guess i best go to the kitchen to eat somethin'"

Exits to kitchen

Rand entered the dorm with a quarter eaten sandwich. He went over to the tv and turned it on. As he was turning it on the sandwich slipped out of his grasp. He quickly extended his hand and the sandwich stopped about 3 inches away from the white carpet. He picked it out of the air and continued eating.

He flipped thru the channels until he got to "Whose line is It Anyway?". He looked over at the digital clock.

1:12 am.

"Oh, well. I'm not too tired." He threw away the napkin that he had his sandwich on and sat down on the bed and watched tv.

[glow=blue,2,300]Rand watched tv. His eyelids kept getting heavier and heavier. Soon he drifted into a deep sleep. The tv was still on, and he only had one blanket over him. He slept.......[/glow]

[epoch]

[glow=black,2,300]Rand was awakened in the middle of his sleep. His eyes were groggy and the tv was still on. He reached down and picked up a fallen remote. He clicked off the tv. The room grew darker. He looked out of the window, the street lamps were glowing. He lay his head down again. In seconds he was asleep. The remote fell out of his hand again.

He dreamed of being back home, playing backyard baseball. It seemed so real.....[/glow]
