farthest- the cars driving on the slippery and wet roads, the hum of the heater/Ac in the Hammer Lab, a student snoring in the back corner

middle- the noisy computer monitor that is clearly broken, Mackenzie off to the side with her sound project, the printers going off near us

close- my keyboard clicking, my music in my ear, my stomach grumbling

general level- almost nonexistent

1 word- ghost town

3 things- clicking keyboard, Mackenzie in the Background, The rush of the cars outside us.
