umm, you switch the circuits off and then you switch them on and everything goes back to normal. :| *Shakes head*

You overloaded the circuit and flipped the switch in the breaker. Just go find it and switch it back on. It's not a hazard; it's supposed to do that.

It's probably in a closet or something. Should just be a relatively large metal box hanging on the wall. Open it up and see if the switches are labeled. If they are, just find your room and switch it back on. If not, look for tripped switches (facing the opposite direction of the others) and flip them. Maybe you'll want your parents for that because if you flip something that shouldn't be turned on (something not yet connected, etc), you'll probably end up wishing you didn't.
