6:30

The fire alarm went off at 6:30 this morning.

We could of just ignored it.

But that isn't how I was trained.

I was taught that when the alarm goes off you get outside as quickly as possible. So I grabbed my sweatshirt and my roommate and we evacuated the building. We were the first ones out. And luckily not the only ones. Otherwise that would have been completely pointless.

We still don't know what happened. All we know is that there wasn't a fire. Which is a wonderful thing. All my roommates got out of the building. That was also good. We know what to do in that situation. So this morning wasn't a complete loss. Of course it was freezing and we were outside for a good 20 minutes, but we now know what will happen if there really is a fire.
