Une Bonne Soirée

Sorry...using simple english but u get the jist...translating to french ever so slowly...

Il était environ neuf heur et demi. Ma colac et moi n'ont pas envie de rejoindre nos autres colocs dans une partie. Donc, nous nous sommes assis sur le canapé et nous avons lu á propos de notre voyage au Quebec le journ suivant. Nous sommes passée une observatoire la soiree derniere quand nous allions The Chasse Gallery. J'ai la demandé si elle voudrait porter ...

We saw an observatory the night that we went to the pub and I asked her whether she would like to dress up in black and try to sneak into the building with me. We didn’t dress up in black but we did make it out to the observatory.

There, outside the building, we bumped into two security guards. They told us in French that the building is only for lectures and that the telescope hasn’t been working for five to seven years. We went into the building after they left because we wanted to see it for ourselves. It was a gorgeous building with a spiral staircase. We went up the stairs. The wall way was completely empty. The classrooms were all locked. Every other light was on. We tried opening some of the doors. Finally, my roommate found the room that leads upstairs to the telescope. The door was locked though. We contemplated several options. We don’t have anything to pick the lock. We shouldn’t break the glass. We turned off some lights so we could peer into the room better. We saw the spiral staircase leading into a dark hole, some posters and a desk. We decided to explore the building some more. I noticed that there were security cameras above us so I waved at it.

It was a lab building so there were emergency showers and eyeball washers out in the hallway. We descended some stairs and found ourselves underground. It was dark and hot. The hallways were super narrow and the ceilings were low. It was kind of funny watching my roommate knocking on doors seeing whether they're hollow or not and creeping about like they do in cartoon shows. I walked behind her kind of nervous. I kept anticipating someone to peek through those glass windows or a guard walking around and finding us sneaking about. At the end of a hallway we saw a man sitting behind a computer with his feet up. We walked across that room and my roommate took a drink of water from the fountain after it and said “task accomplish”. We walked back and away from the man.

The floor plan to this building is like a maze. We ended up in this tunnel: this underground tunnel that connects all the buildings together. This place was super hot. There were white washed walls and pipes everywhere. There were some desks and office chairs. We heard noises and I was reluctant to continue. But my roommate looks like she is having so much fun. =). So I followed her, whatever her decision was. She continued. The tunnel came into a split. We had two decisions. I looked past my roommate and saw a black figure walking towards us. I whispered, “there’s someone there’s someone there!” So we scurried into the second tunnel. It led us to the basement of the gym. I sighed in relief hoping we could head out. We tried all the doors. There’s another video camera here. We tried the door that would open to the outside. It was locked from the inside as well. So we had to return to the tunnel. On our walk back we saw a map on the wall. As I was looking at the map my roommate found a pair of sunglasses above the frame and tried it on. She asked me how they look on her. I laughed and said it doesn’t really suit you. She said too bad and placed it back. We took the other tunnel where the guy was walking. We found some stairs and I took them. Don’t get me wrong. I love these kinds of adventures but we’ve been in there for about forty minutes then. I was holding my dictionary close to my heart and bouncing about behind her. It was fun. There’s this one room with a dumpster and a dark pathway to the left. I thought to myself I don’t want to get in there and heard my roommate say something and I screamed out no. We laughed. I was pretty freaked out then. I can’t explain this any better in words at the moment.

So we took those stairs and it led us to a familiar building. We knew where to exit to get back to our residence. We had to past the security guard office though. As we passed we tried to look normal. He said something to us in French that I couldn’t really make out. Then I realized…he said he was watching us from that building to here…and he said to my roommate…those sunglasses looks good on you!


Classic! It was so much fun and we laughed so hard. We saw another student when we were walking back to campus and we had a talk. She was going to a party. People are still partying at this hour. It’s kind of nuts cause our bus for Quebec leaves at eight thirty tomorrow morning. I should probably sleep. Good night everyone!
