           ~What is going on? The sun has not risen since the day before my last entry. All the power on campus has gone off and it has been pitch black everywhere. I am writing this by candlelight. My dorm mates left to go home to their parents four days ago so I have been by myself. I'm starting to want to go back to Utah for right now to make sure my parents are okay because they haven't been answering my calls. I have just run out of food but I don't want to go outside. I have been hearing strange noises coming from outside my door. The handle keeps giggling like someone or something is trying to get in. I have seen and heard people panicking running around trying to get things trying to get home to families. People seem to be going crazy here. I don't want to leave but I know if I don't I will die of starvation. So I go to the door, look around to see nobody there and make a run for the stairs, out of my building, and to my car.
