Drama On Second Floor

So today is a day like any other I am strolling through campus causing mishap and rampage like I normally do. However, today something happened a bit out of the ordinary. Usually my shenanigans go sadly unnoticed by the general UST community, with the exception of select individuals with highly developed taste for eccentric social experiments. There I was walking from the underground ramp. That is where I spend most of my time hustling, making amok, and living the vagabond lifestyle. However, there is just so much underground rebellious work a guy can handle in a limited amount of time. Thus I decided to protruded from my below the surface hideout and do some "normal good college student stuff", things such as pudding slip and slides. As I walked into the elevator I noticed something different. Someone had draped blue fabric on the wall. Now elevators have always intrigued me. First of all they are pretty much the most awkward places to be with a stranger. Thankfully there were no strangers for me to awkwardly ask what floor they are going to then stare at the door praying it will open soon. However, there was also a video camera in the corner. This video camera has been an object of wonder and amazement ever since I began using the elevator. Why is it there? Who is watching me? Is that to prevent people from having dance parties and playing twister in the elevator or something? (Something by the way I'm still planning on doing) So curiosity decided to possess my body for a short period of time. I looked straight into the camera made a face and moved the blue blanket over the lens. "That will teach them to spy on me!" I said as I indignantly walked out of the elevator. Only a few hours later I receive this email which I will copy in its entirety. It turns out some sadistic freak does watch me while I shake it in the elevator. Even worse they know who I am and can identify me! Here is the email I got...

Mr.,

Today our camera in the S. Residence north elevator showed you covering the camera with the protective blanket that had been put up for move out. (The blanket was put up to protect the sides of the elevator from damage.) In doing this, you created a safety risk for those who use the elevator, mainly the occupants S. Residence. Please be more respectful and thoughtful in your actions in the future.

Thank you,

So of course I responded.

Dear Laura,
How about you get a life and stop spying on me! Doing so you would be more respectful and thoughtful in your actions in the future.


Thank you,

Me
Indignant Resident of S Hall
You know my Room number
and Phone Number

Because you spy on me.
