So you know that moment, right when you've been caught doing something you shouldn't have? The adrenaline rush... the thoughts of consequences..
Thankfully... this tale does not involve the cops or being pulled over *phew*
So my PA (Peer Advisor) on my dorm floor got this insane flashlight at costco... 10 million candle power... that's BRIGHT, you don't want that shined in your eyes even if you're 100+ feet away
Well, being a bunch of guys, we decided to shine the light on the dorm farthest away (almost a quarter of a mile) and we lit the building up. I hadn't been with the guys the last two nights, but this was in fact the third night that someone had been shining this light on the building at about 2am!
Our biggest mistake was to stick around... we stayed there for 20 or more minutes, which spelled doom for the few of us left. A couple of guys from the campus safety and security office came up and asked us to hand over the light. Apparantly they got over 50 calls about us waking people up! OOPS!!
We had to wait around for the Assistant Director of Residence Life to show up... he lectured us for a few minutes about how we should learn a lesson from this...
I think our saving grace was that some of the guys in the other building were playing "morse code" with us too... Which the security guys saw
All in all, the end of the consequences will be a little mark on our records and a talking to... that's it! *grins* Ah, the joys of college
