Yesterday around 230am, my family was wondering why
there was smoke in the house. My father went out to check
I followed him downstairs. We took the lift down and when the lift
door opened, we saw this huge fire at the dustbin area.
Which was directly in front of us, the smoke engulfed the air.
& he still wanted to press the lift up to the 10th floor LOL.
Okay , I think everyone should know this , but when there's a fire ,
do NOT take the lift .
It was our mistake to take the lift down in the first place.
Later we went out to the road and saw some boys on their bikes,
they were shouting in a chinese dialect "Fire" to the residence.
They also called the civil defence force and police.
Since my dad and me did not bring a phone, we had to climb
the staircase to the 10th floor and inform my mom and sis.
When we reached, they were up and both changed their clothes.
We tried going down by other staircases, and we met some other
families escaping.
We all stood in the road, seeing the fire melt down by the firemen.
Then this one guy came out to us, say we cant use the lift,
too smokey. Had to climb the staircase again back home.
Where I was puffing and panting.
Overall I think my asthma acted up, and hell that
my sis and mom changed their clothes before going
downstairs. ( I was still in pajamas - Tee and shorts )
Bad experience, smoke made it hard to breathe.
My sister still can say (when we arrived back home)
that it was so "thrilling" & "exciting".
She should have went down the lift with me and see that darn fire.
She also asked if this news could make headlines. Obvious reply is no.
My father said that if I & him were burnt in the fire , then
it would be in headlines haha.
Imagine, "Two burnt, in HDB fire"
But dear readers, I do not want to end my life yet.
Not yet. ;)
