Everyone knows that I have been in a fight with my room recently. Allow me to describe some of my battles.
The Battle of the Monsoon
This battle was unfortunately won by the rain. It was me and my room against the rain and a hole in the ceiling (located unfortunately right above my pillow). My mattress and pillow both were soaked, which resulted in one night of sleeping on the dry half of my mattress and one night of sleeping in another room.
You can see the bucket used to keep the rainwater here, and you can also see the demonic light that is commented on below. that blue light is so evil.
The Shocking Battle
Once in a while, my light would shock me. I would normally just allow this experience to augment my fear of buttons that I have developed while being here. So I ignored it for a while, until the shocking became extreme during the Battle of the Monsoon. I was convinced that there was no compromise; the light would have to be exorcised of its demons or I would have to perish in the battle. After continuing its shocking streak, the light started a new strategy: staying on all of the time. The off switch became both an ineffective way to stay shock-free and turn things off. Luckily, I was armed with my magical hanky, which allowed me to take the bulb out without shocking myself or burning myself. However, the battle does not end here. Last night, as I was getting ready to go to bed, the light shocked me without me touching it. “that was the last straw,” I screamed! And now my light has been fully exorcised, as you can see in this picture.
Update: My light has been fixed by an electrician and now is functioning properly, just in case you were worried about me.
