Fire!

A bit of excitement happened at school today. The fire alarm went off... Man, it was loud. I had to cover my ears until I walked out of the building. Only a handful of people emerged from the building,... oh yeah... today is October Break. Anyway... as soon as I was outside, the fire truck and the emergency vehicle arrived, then a cop car. That was quick, less a minute of response time! Impossible! A few of the professors and I jokingly said that there must have been a conspiracy going on. Anyhow, after a few minutes had passed, we got the "all-clear" signal to go back into the building. The excitement was really over-rated. It turned out that one light switch caught fire... well actually more like smoke all the way. That's it. No fiery fire or splashing water. So much for an excitement.
