Day 4 of this Sensenbrenner Life.
I have officially decided to blame the Sensenbrenner on the corruption of my phone charger. For some reason, after plugging the charger into the wall in the Room, the charger will no longer charge the phone and instead comes up with the error message "Unauthorized Charger". Inconvenient? I'd say so!
Other strange things have been happening as well, for example on Sunday night I had my alarm clock set for 7 AM for Monday morning. Not changing the time, I thought this would work out well for the next day, when to my surprise, my clock did not go off at 7. Luckily I had gotten up on my own before this time so as to not be late to work in REH. When I walked by the room later, I realized the alarm was going off and rushed to change it, noticing the alarm had been set for 8 AM. Hmmm.
I continue to stay going here in the room. On occassion, a door will slam or a person will yell something inaudible to the floor or a 'friend' down the hall. Of course everytime this happens I jump, making this a rather uneasy place to simply relax for long periods of time. I have tried to no success to develop some sort of friendly connection with the other inhabitants of the floor, who seem to keep to themselves as well, and will not respond when you even say 'hello!'. Village attitudes? I think not.
I was fortunate, however, to have been invited over to my fellow REH worker's apartment to play Disney trivia, a fun-filled game which makes one realize that there are more Disney films out there than you think! This does show that yes, there can be entertainment in this place, however, I am quite sure board games are a regular occurrence in the Village.
Yet life continues, and the realization that soon it will be June,with only two months until this temporary exile will be over.
Lesson of the Day: Double check the alarm clock before falling asleep, even if you did not tamper with it, mysterious things happen here.
