Fire fire burnt so high!

Actually, it was fire! fire! burnt so low! Last Friday, there was a fire at the basement of our office building. When it broke, I was out at Subway getting a sandwich for Pat. On my way back to the office building, as I was walking nearer to the exit that leads out to the office building, I could smell some burning. When I came out of the underground, I saw thick smoke coming out from the carpark entrance. I was thinking of just walking away but later, I decided to take a video clip of the situation to show my little fireman at home.
I saw many people already standing around the front of the building. I guess the fire alarm must have been activated. The first thing that came to my mind was "How to get my breast milk pump out of the office??" Rang Pat and luckily she is still in the office. She thought that it was just a fire drill and was really surprised that I told her that there was a REAL fire at the basement. Managed to get her to bring down all my stuff so that I can go home and express my milk. Friday was also Alexius kindermusik day so I really can't wait for the building management to give the OK to re-enter the building. Since it was still quite early... just past noon time, so I decided to go to some nearby washroom to express my milk. Hehehe! I went to Fullerton Hotel to do it! The toilet is clean and less people. After expressing my milk, I thought perhaps I can go home in a taxi. But to my surprise, the road in front of the office building was blocked. I saw a couple of policemen and a police petrol car parked at the road entrance. Urgh! no choice lor... go home by MRT lor. But before I go into the MRT station, I took a clip of the fire engines to show my little fireman!


Have to show my little fireman these video clips cos when I called Mr Lee to tell him what has happened, Gaby was in the car with him and he could hear the conversation over the handsfree set. So I have to get myself prepared for questions when I reached home.
