Fire!

This afternoon, I was sleeping extremely soundly (I went to bed at 9 in the morning) when I was VIOLENTLY AWAKENED by my Mum.

She was shouting "火烧啊!!! 火烧啊!!! 快点起来!!!" or something.

I was like WTF!

In seconds I jumped out of bed, grabbed my specs and headed outside my room.

Holy ****! My living room was FOGGED with smoke - thick poisonous black smoke. Every breath you take makes you feel like choking.

My first instinct was the fire happened in my house. So I rushed to open all the windows.

Bad decision.

Smoke FLOODED in from outside as I open the corridor windows. ZZZ.

It wasn't until later that I realized it was the next door flat that's on fire. (right next to my room)

Don't really recall what happened, except my brother and mother BOTH called 995. (They didn't know each other are calling. LOL)

I ran around the house switching off the electric sockets and the next thing I know I'm outside the flat with everyone else.

The whole corridor was covered with the awful smelling gas pouring out from the burning flat.

Police & Firemen arrived shortly, we were chased away as they cordoned the area...

ZZZ...

Wait wait wait...


Aftermath

ZZZ...

My whole house was covered with black soot.

We had to throw away all the food we've prepared, re-wash all the clothes, mop the floor, change all the bedsheets, etc.... ZZZ

It's just crazy.

According to the police, it was due to a short circuit from the fridge, which caused an explosion leading to the fire.

Liew....

This is the first time in my life I've experience a fire disaster...

Hopefully this will be as close as it gets.

=.=

Come to think of it, if there's no one at home just now, I think I will "up-lorry" liao.
