Fire Fire

OMG, I can't believe my luck today. I actually set on the fire alarm, and it's not a false alarm, it nearly did turn out to be a fire. Well the story goes like this......

I was heating up some soup on VERY LOW fire in the kitchen and came back to my room. Soon, I forgot about it and when the fire alarm rang, I could see smoke coming out of the kitchen door. Then I remembered!! SHIT!!! I forgot to turn off the fire. The kitchen was filled with smoke(windows shut) and visibility is nearly zero. At that moment, I took a deep breath and rushed into the kitchen to turn off the fire. It was an absolute disaster.

Soon, everybody was out of their bed and outside in the cold. It was 4.30 in the morning!!! In the morning!!! The soup was boiling for more than 3 hours. Sigh....... bless me. Even the fire brigade came and the whole waiting period lasted for more than 20 minutes. As expected, at the end of it I received a lecture from the security people and they even took my name down, presumably to report it to the University office. Guess I'll be expecting a hefty fine there and what makes matter worse is that it's gonna be in pounds. I so wanna cry now sigh......

Oh well, I just finished typing an apology letter to be sent out to residents of other flats who were forced to evacuate. Hopefully I don't get a backlash, at least not a big backlash for that. I mean it's an accident right? Or actually more like a careless mistake? Soon, I'll be the black goat of this flat. Pretty unlucky huh?

What have I got to say? I just feel terribly sorry.......
