strange occurrence #33

the other day i was chatting with d via yahoo messenger before heading off to school. i was downstairs sitting at my little table where my laptop is. i had music playing through itunes. bascially my typical morning. while chatting with d i suddenly heard some korean guys voice. the sound was coming from my apartment. to be more specific it sounded like the was the person was upstairs. they've be doing some construction or something upstairs so i thought that maybe they had accidentally busted through the wall. then i realized i hadn't heard any commotion so that couldn't be it. thats when i came up with the idea that the tv turned it self on. as i climbed the stairs the voice got louder and louder. when i reached the top i noticed that the tv was still off. i started to look around the room. as i looked up at the ceiling i noticed a litte yellow speaker thing. upon closer inspection i realized that the voice was coming out of that. yes people, i had some voice like a morning announcement at school talking to me through the ceiling. my phone starting ringing. it was horace. i started laughing before i answered it because i immediately knew why he was calling. he heard the voice too. of course the two of us are coming up with all these different scenarios for what he was saying, the main one being that everyone needs to evacuate the building. it was kind of creepy having this random voice come out of nowhere. i've never heard of nor lived anywhere that had such a thing. apparently all of the apartments must have them. of course there was no evacuation. i realized if there was we would have heard people running through the halls. at school we told jk about the incidient. he said they were probably making an announcement about some function or something happening in the building. thats kind of a bizarre thing to do but then again we are in korean after all. still it was weird. and the fact the jk made it seem like such a common experience made it all the weirder. now it makes me wonder if there are little hidden cameras throughout the apartment. perhaps there is some crazy old korean guy in the basement watching and listening to everything we say or do. didn't this happen on melrose on time. someone was hiding in the ceiling spying on amanda. it makes you think huh. so far i haven't heard anything else come out of the speaker. hopefully that will be the last. and if its not maybe next time i'll be prepare but i doubt that.
