How To Obtain A Forbidden Party Room

A new semester has begun and that means new hall-mates. Several people have moved out of our hall; however, we have only regained a few. It has come to our attention that we have an empty room in our midst. When someone with very little personal space is presented with an unused space (that just takes a little deviousness to obtain), they are driven crazy with the idea that it is going to obvious waste. We have come to the conclusion that we MUST at all costs get into this room. There were several plans we concocted before coming across the winning idea:

Failure #1: Trying to move into the room. Not all the way of course. We simply tried to switch rooms on the internet so that it would register us as an occupant. Then, go to the Cannon Center, say we got locked out, they look it up, oh look! it's our room. That didn't work. For some reason the room is completely unavailable. No one can get in it. Extremely inconvenient.
Failure #2: Trying to pick the lock. Just so you know, YouTube videos lie! You can not just simply wiggle your paperclip around and BAM! your lock pops open....no....We sat for maybe twenty minutes "wiggling" the paper clips around with absolutely no success. Moving on.

Failure #3: Master Keys. We figured maybe the Cannon Center doesn't keep separate keys for every room, so they would just have a master key. It would make sense. If kids didn't know they were getting a master key, there would be no problem. So Katie went and asked for a key to their room and then attempted to open the door. It was not a master key. Next.

Failure #4: Fake Out. Since they ask us what our room is when we ask for a key, maybe they don't know and it isn't registered in their computer. Unfortunately, the computer is smarter than us. When I said I needed a key for 2113, the attendant gave me a funny look and asked if I meant 2118. Of course I did- it's just been a long week. We had to sit around the corner for five minutes because we didn't feel like walking all the way back only to return a few minutes later. Fail.

Failure #5: Kicking the door down. It would be a tad too obvious. Plus...we just weren't able to.

Failure #6: Excessive Pleading with the door....'nuff said.

Finally we have come to our winning scheme! If I do say so myself, this was quite brilliant and well put together. It may even blow your smerfs out of the water. This will take quite some explaining. I hope you are ready for this:

Winning Scheme: (this is what should've happened) First an I.D. card was slid extremely far under the door. An RA was retrieved. She opens the door. Person 1 goes in to get the card. Person 2 distracts RA by asking her a question, successfully pulling her away from the door. Person 3 sneaks in and hides in the wardrobe. Everybody walks out, RA thanked and gone, person 3 opens the door.

Instead, this is how it really happened: We retrieved the RA. She was very interested in how it happened and how the card got so far into the room. She opened the door, but refused to move from it. Person 2 approached, but RA continued to stay in position prohibiting Person 3 from sneaking into the room. As Person 1 walked out of the room, a magnet was secretly slipped over the key hole. Despite the fact we were sure she would see, even as she looked to turn out the lights, it went unnoticed. Later, we covered the key hole with clear tape to make it less obvious.

And that my friends is how you are able to obtain a party room in which you can learn the Hannah Montana Hoedown Throwdown in. My recommendation? Skip steps 1-6 and proceed right to the last. It will save you several hours on what once was a Saturday night with many possibilities. I wish you success in all your future devious endeavors! -Jessie
