Alone in a dark room. But what's really happening?

I am sitting here in my bedroom, in the dark with only the light from the parking lot shining lightly into the room. As I sit here, I am thinking about 100 different things I need to get done and all the things that have changed recently for me. I am with my thoughts in the dark, not alone but connected with my worries, wonders, and hopes for this semester, and for life as well. However, as I sit here in the dark my apartment is actually buzzing with the sounds of the TV and the chatter of my roommates. They are watching Entertainment and playing UNO, continuing our roomie "bonding" night. All around me people in other apartments are continuing their days whether they're getting ready for bed, eating dinner, doing homework, showering, or just hanging out, our building is alive and buzzing.
