Our house alarm

Just a fun story about our first week in our new apartment. actually, to be specific it was our first night and we were still moving our stuff in at 1:30am. I was in the shower when suddenly the house alarm goes off. so i jump out and derek is running around like a crazy person saying 'sorry i pressed the panic button'. apparently there is button right by our bed which derek had pushed when he was moving things around. to our annoyance we knew nothing about the apartment yet never mind the code to shut the alarm off. so for five dreadful minutes this piercing sound filled our apartment and those near us. we hadn't even introduced ourselves to the neighbours yet! thats not going to happen now. anyway so our frantic making up random codes and pressing every button on the keypad didn't work, but it stopped after the longest five minutes of our lives.

eventful, and not that surprising is it really?
