What was supposed to be an anonymous blog is anonymous no more.
All thanks to the super big noses and mouths of Convent girls [how typical and predictable], who have to poke their noses into other people's business and spread the word.
So if you have any news you would want to travel faster than CNN/BBC, find a Convent JB girl.
Speed guaranteed, but facts may be twisted.
Fire!
It happened in the middle of a Tuesday nite. My roommate was asleep, I had just given up battling level 12-6 of Zuma and about to climb into my cosy bed...
Suddenly, a loud knock that sounded like the person knocking wanted to break my door down gave me the shock of my life. "Buka! Buka! ...undeciphered words".
I was rudely awaken. Even though my eyes were dead tired, I switched on the lights and then rushed to wake Jelina up and told her briefly what just happened. A thousand thoughts raced through my mind.. I hesitated to open the door. My gut feeling told me we shouldn't open the door yet. Loud knockings can still be heard on every door down the floor.
Jelina who was possibly still half asleep was about to open the door... when a horrible thought came to my mind.
"OMG! Are they having a sudden spot check??!!"
I hurried to stop her from opening the door.
"We should hide the kettle!!!" I said. (it is illegal to use an electric kettle in our own room)
With movements like the speed of light, i unplugged the kettle and hide it in her cupboard (during a spot check, no one is allowed to open your cupboard). Looked around the room once more for anymore illegal things that shouldn't be lying around. Satisfied, we opened the door.
A guy's voice could be heard shouting, "Buka! Ada api!!" An alarm ringing could be heard in the distant and something stinking could be smelled in the background.
Fire?? FIRE!!
Panic and confusion overtook all reasoning. Quickly left our room, but before closing the door, i saw my laptop on the table! Cannot leave it!! Should I take it?? It's now or never! Life or belongings is most important now?? People were leaving their rooms in a hurry.
Then, some guy from the Fire and Rescue Dept shouted, "Tutup semua suis!"
That's when everything became clear. This was all a blardy hoax!! -_-lll
It was simply a stupid fire drill! Aargh!!! All this commotion was for nothing. They got us out of our beds and disturbed our precious sleep just to laugh at our sleepy faces.
We went down, lined up, and was lectured. Bla bla bla...
Jelina was talking with BoonSin & CiXiang our floormates when out of the blue, she asked me,
"Hey... Just now when u hid the kettle, was there any water in it??!!"
"Omg! I think there was some left... But don't worry, i hid it upright."
We broke into peals of laughter...
"Wait a minute! Jelina, did u bring the keys out when you closed the door just now?"
"Nope. Did you??"
HahaHaha!!!
In an emergency like this.. the first thing that came into our mind was actually the kettle!! =P
Gosh... and the worse thing is, we didn't even think about our keys when we left the room!!! That was the gazillionth time since we started living in that room that we forgot our keys. Thankfully, we knew how to leave a spare key with ChinYee otherwise we'd be sleeping outside our room that nite.
The moral of this story is, there's no necessary need to forgo your beauty sleep when someone knocks on your door in the middle of the night. It could very well be a false alarm. Haha... =P
However, you should always be safe than sorry. ^o^
