Thursday
Szern’s believe it or not.
NUS had a fire alarm today!!! Yup yup! My block had to be evacuated. It was during immuno lecture break when the alarm sounded. Fyi, I was napping then. Wahaha! Told ya I was really really tired. Imran, our (very responsible and enthusiastic) class rep told us to grab our stuff and run. Hey hey! This wasn’t what we learnt in school, right? In case of a fire, we’re supposed to abandon our belongings and run for dear life. However, in our case, our bags were on our laps. So just shun bian grab our bags (and lecture notes) and run la! After all, according to liling, if we were to leave our bags on the floor, other people who were running for dear life might trip over our bags and fall! a very valid reason.
Anyway, I feel that weiling, liling and I are not only kiasu, but kiasi as well! we were amongst the first in our class to run out of the seminar room to the assembly area. Hahahaha! Well, I don’t want to die so early. And in school for that matter. Fyi, I was sharing to Adrian and desmond the day before that I don’t want to die so soon. At least let me get married first. WAHAHA! Ok. That’s besides the point. Back to the fire alarm…
We ran to the assembly area and noticed the lab people were wearing the “Fire Warden” neon green and orange vests and were holding on to some name lists. There were also boards that read ‘Microbiology Lab Level 2’ etc. everything was so well organized! One of the fire wardens kept looking at his watch. This lead weiling, liling, Felicia and I to speculate that this was just a drill.
Being girls, and Nursing girls at that, we somehow have this extraordinary power to get more information. Today, we eavesdropped overheard the fire wardens talking amongst themselves and realised the alram was the REAL deal! The drill should be in September! Woah! For REAL?!?!?! We waited a few minutes more and overheard (once again) that some alarm wire thing was screwed and so… you know the rest of the story. Hahaha!
Back to class we went (with our bags and lecture notes) and the ang moh lecturer praised us for our prompt action! ‘A+’ was what he wrote on the white board. Yea! I salute the fire wardens for being so ready and prepared in this ‘emergency’. A really cool experience. Admit it la. How many times have you participated in an emergency evacuation in uni? Haha!
stuff i ate today:

So yea, that’s for today. Somehow today feels like tomorrow. I mean, Thursday (today) feels like Friday (tomorrow). and i ate waffle for THREE consecutive days!!! man!!! Yup yup! Bye!!!!
