What happens on the hallways stays on the hallways.

Bizarre things I have recently seen in or around one UNC dorm or another:
A girl struggling to break open an oddly-sturdy piñata in the form of a monkey, right outside my hall door. When repeatedly hitting it failed, she tried tearing off a string that was supposed to burst it open. The poor party favor instead came apart at the neck. Candy was yielded, eventually… but at what cost?
Two stray black shoes, one about ten feet from the other, in an apartment complex lobby, with no other people in sight.
A mixed jumble of two discarded newspapers — one Herald-Sun, one News & Observer — strewn lengthwise across a bathroom doorway. The mess remained for about sixteen hours with no comment.
A mysterious black cat wandering about the buildings of my neighborhood, which invariably runs away the moment I make eye contact. (I met a different, much more cuddly-friendly one today on a different part of campus, wandering around in the rain. He didn’t seem to mind the weather.)
