Today at school we had a fire drill. It was nearing the end of first period. The students (myself and numerous others) awaited the freedom ring of the school bell. It was a symbol of our 5 minutes of chaotic liberty. But it did not come. Instead we were greeted by a horrible sound. The sound which makes other horrible sounds sound good. It was a very bad sound.
<Sound made by the most obnoxious fire alarms> was all that could be heard. Surprisingly, neither student nor teacher was thrown into a disarray of alarmed shock. Nay, they seemed more annoyed than anything. Regardless, we made our way outside of the “burning” (it wasn’t really on fire) building only to be told minutes later that, “Students, you should now be going to your second period class.
If you have a horrible story about this drill or any other fire drill, send them to me (Andrew Nemeth) at andrew@projectnemetn.com.
Now I’m off to go watch Heroes.
P.S. “Save the cheerleader; save the world”
