The Last Night in Rome

After Tivoli, we got back to Rome and went to bed. We were pretty tired. In the middle of the night, some guy walks in and he's acting very strange. Since he woke me up, I decided to watch him to make sure he wasn't going to root through my stuff, or anyone else's stuff. Finally, he got into bed and I went to sleep.

Later on that night, I was woken up again by some weird shaking. The shaking became pretty violent and lasted for about 40 or 50 seconds. After it stopped, I could hear emergency sirens and howling dogs. It turns out that I just experienced my second earthquake (which is what I thought it was, Sam and Iori weren't convinced until we reached Napoli). The epicenter was on the other side of the peninsula on about the same latitude as Rome, so we were actually pretty close. If I remember correctly, it was a 6.3 on the Richter scale and caused the deaths of over 200 people.

Soon after the quake was done quaking, I went back to sleep. Unfortunately, I was once again woken up by that jackass who came in earlier that night. I woke up to hear him, and then see him, pissing all over the window sill. Luckily, his stream of piss didn't crawl far enough across the floor to reach Sam's stuff (I warned Sam about the piss in the morning before he got out of bed). Then, this guy just stood in the middle of the room, swaying. That's when I realized he was completely hammered. The pissing on the window should've tipped me off but one of my friends (CHRIS) did the same exact thing even though he only had two or three beers (so he wasn't drunk). Actually, I think Chris was just sleep walking/falling off the top bunk. I've heard other stories where people wound up thinking their pillow cases were a toilet.

Anyway, that doesn't excuse this guy. He stood in the middle of the room for a long time. Then he went of looking for his bed (I think). He actually wound up passing out on the floor with his back against the bed of the only girl in the room, which I thought was a little suspicious. I stayed up watching him a bit after he passed out to make sure he didn't do anything. And then I finally went back to sleep.
