Setting off the alarm

Hello all.

Sorry i haven't posted for a rather long time, i have been.......busy, i guess and haven't had the time to do any thing on the computer. Now to my post......

It happened yesterday, and let me assure you, no one was expecting it. See i had just gotten home from a debate/swim party and had gotten hit a couple times by a water gun, so, i decided to take a hot shower and watch a movie. My parents had gone to evening service and i for one was not to hot on the idea of getting out of my comfortable pjs to accompany them. Besides, i thought, they'll have much more fun without me. I was right in the middle of my movie when they came home and suddenly anounced that we, me, mom, dad and my brother, were to go to the Halpins house for ice cream and that it was non negotiable who was going and who wasn't. I regretfully shed my comfy clothes for something nicer. Upon ariving i realized that it was just to be us and the Rowlands who would be attending. When Catie arrived(Michelle being to lazy to get out of her pajamas) we all, me Catie, Atalie and her older sister, sat on the couch, at a loss for what to do. Suddenly i hit upon a brilliant idea. Why not go over to the church and dress up using the drama rooms costumes?? After getting an, O.K. with our parents, we quickly got our sweatshirts and hurried over to the church. Catie and Atalie went to the the front of the church to try the doors there while i took Michaela around the back to try the doors there. ''Its open!" i heard Catie yell as she and Atalie dashed inside. Hmm that's weird, i thought as i followed them. The moment i stepped inside the building i knew something was going to go wrong, and sure enough, the churches alarm went off. Now when you think of alarm you might think of a small beeping that lets the police know that someone has entered the building, but no. This alarm was loud. So loud that when my sister set off the alarm off a different time, she was half way home and could still hear it ringing loudly. I didn't stop to find out what would happen. Doing an incredibally fast 3-60 i pivoted hard and started sprinting away with Catie and Atalie hard on my tail, the earsplitting shriek of the alarm ringing in my ears. Wondering where Atalies sister was i quickly turned around and saw a white van that was about to leave the parking lot stop by the church. A man climbed out of the van with a set of keys and stalked over to the churches office where he let himself in and turned off the alarm. Dread seeped into me as i realized that our rescuer had been the schools principle. With head bowed i quietly led my friends back to the church and apologized. I told him that i had no idea that that would happen, and that we were very sorry and would never do it again. He was very understanding and was quick to forgive. So i had an interesting evening and made myself a mental note to never EVER go into a building after dark, even if the door is wide open. You never know what might happen. =)
