"Fire!"....where??

Otherwise the Hub, where we live, is veeery nice and cozy. Big beds, modern kitchen and en-suite bathrooms... you'd think that a messy kitchen would be gruesome, but there's something even worse - the fire alarms! In normal flats they'd actually function as they should, when there is a fire or a looot of smoke, but here it's not at all like that...

In each room there's a fire alarm, and it's not just any fire alarms, they're the really sensitive ones. When for example somebody in our flat cooks/burns food or makes toast, the fire alarm goes off. When somebody in another flat in our staircase burns food or makes toast, our fire alarms go off...and it's not even only the alarm in the kitchen, it's in every single bedroom, every time! ...so imagine yourself waking up to some reeeally annoying beeping sound, and there's no way to switch it off! Aaargh! Actually it's just as annoying at other times of the day, 'cause it goes on like forever...! Sensitive stuff - guess some people should learn to cook? ;) (probably jinxed it now, tomorrow it'll probably be us :))

Not a day has gone by without an alarm going off somewhere on the premises... Today when we got home from uni, the residents in staircase E stood outside in their pyjamas! And we were coldish even with coats on... Can't wait for the winter to creep up on us...guess we have to sleep in our ski outfits to survive the fire alarms :) haha, some kind of student life, huh? ;)
