My building floods... on the 3rd floor... THROUGH THE WALLS. Ceiling/roof is fine. However, water blows through into vents, gets into the heat/ac system, and has started leaking in the walls and floors. Paint is bubbling up with water underneath it. The carpet is soaked and nasty.
I am particularly disgruntled (luff that word <3) because my university took no precautions to cover vents that frequently flood during regular rain DURING A FREAKING HURRICANE. Admittedly it's not really a serious one, but it's raining hard here and windy. Rain will come into the vents.
Now facilities says... we will send someone in a few hours (4 am maybe?) to start cleaning out your carpets and stuff. Except that this means I will have to move my... fridge, filing cabinet, desk, bed, and dresser out of my room, and probably a few boxes of other things.
I just moved in a week ago. -.- I am pissed.
Also my internet connection in here is crap, and it will be a few weeks before they come install an AP in my room... which means in the meantime I have to go sit on the floor in the common kitchen to watch MLG.
I just wanted to sit in my room with fresh cookies and hot chocolate and play games and listen to music and talk to friends and stay dry and warm. qq
EDIT: 3:38 a.m. I was awoken to facilities banging on my door and a large water vacuum sucker thingy (technical terms here). Thankfully the guys who came are moving all my stuff out for me but it still is teh suxorz. t.t Maybe will be able to set up my computer again in the morning for some LoL. (can't stand playing sc2 if I'm going to be disconnecting or losing signal randomly)

Psi Stoooooooooooooooooooorm!
Um, you might as well look for a place to rent for a while. It sounds like the dorms there are crap quality...

 Hope everything gets straightened out. My parents basement flooded last year from a huge storm. Such a pain in the ass.

Hey, I live in Philly as well. And I got nothing. Funny.

I meant to post something supportive or anecdotal about flooding and hurricanes but I got caught up thinking about water bleeding through walls. 15 minutes later and a random youtube analysis of the shining- I got nothing.

I had a similar problem 3 years ago. The hot water tank in the apartment above mine had broken while the guy was on a few months vacations. I basically couldn't break in his apartment, and it was impossible to reach the guy. Because it was slowly infiltrating the walls and the ceiling rather than flooding, it couldn't be considered as an emergency, so I had to wait for 2 months...
My whole ceiling went moldy. T_T
