International House Fire drill?






So, at bout 3 pm the fire alarm went off, but everyone assumed it was a drill, so a lot of ppl didnt go down.

I took my camera, went to the bathroom, then went down.

anyway it was super loud, but basically we went down n were told to stand at one corner on the sidewalk.

Thats it, they didnt tell us anythin, just go stand there pls.

I was like im sure its a drill, so i went to ask them if i can call the firemen :p but it turns out they were coming anyway.

so bout 20 minutes later they show up, n walk casually into the I house.

Were outside so we cant c anythin, but it didnt seem like anything was wrong.


15 minutes later they let us all in again. n i ask if it was a drill


LOL! they dont wanna admit it (or somethin really went wrong)

but they were like no its a fire alarm not a drill.

Im hopin its not a fire alarm, cuz the way we acted we would have been swallowed up by real flames.

Thats the downside of having so many firedrills (there were 4 last semester i heard), ppl just tend to think everythins a drill.

so i basically took pics while i was waitin outside.

- i think it was a drill cuz the firetrucks took so long, n they didnt have their sirens on, and when they got there, just calmly got out n walked in.

  1. It stinks when someone's making popcorn in their microwave and burns it. That's all it usually takes to set off the fire alarm. Just be glad you're not having to get out of the building in the middle of the night, in Indiana winters!
