ACK! HUGE fire near palm springs!Today at school, I heard that there was a fire in palm springs, and I didn't think much of it at first, but by the time I was in PE the sky had turned orange and there was a funny smell in the air. At snack break the sky darkened and The ashes were visible in the air. By the time Britney and I were at lunch, the smoke was so bad that people weren't allowed outside the lunch area. By the time I was moving from my 6th class to my 7th, I had to cover my face with my sleeve it was so bad. On the way home, it was aweful! I just got inside, and I got a sore throat just from walking around outside. But, on the bright side, the fire didn't get over here!

yeah, it was horrible. the fire is pretty close to my house, so like at 7:00 am, there was smoke at my house. i found out that 3 fire fighters died during that fire. they said it started at 1:00 am by arsinists (lol, i don't know how to spell it). i have a HUGE headache from the smoke, and my throat hurts, and it started to make my lungs and stomach hurt. it also got REALLY huge from the santa anna winds, it was SUPER windy in the morning

|
Lia
|
yeah, probably.
|
britney

nope. they said it was definatly arison earlier. and obviousley it was cuz it started at one am, and like a fire can start in the dark? i don't think so
|
Lia
|
yeah, seriously, lol, maybe it was just htat the guy was confirming it again to assure people of it?
|
britney

| .:Anna-Bella:. wrote: | | yeah, seriously, lol, maybe it was just htat the guy was confirming it again to assure people of it? |

| .:Anna-Bella:. wrote: | | reeally? whats your time? mine is 8:45 |
first time it was like 10:45 =P then it was 9:00, but he accidentley said 9:56 or something, i know i was 9:00 cuz i was RIGHT behind this one kid, and he told him that he got 8:56, what's up w/ that?
~~~
btw, it doesn't smell outside anymore, but it is windy, so it might be smokey tommorrow
|
Lia
|
yeah. last time i KNEW my time was 8:20, but he counted it as 8:45 becuase he said that in the order i had to be later, but it was just because alot of people were in back of me and he got it mixed up. I'm number 23rd in running out of 60 kids.

yeah, but u said it's impossible to get under #20, cuz there are so many fast people, so there is like 20 fast people right? but that doesn't really make sence, cuz that's like most of the class, so doesn't that mean like ````````never mind (sorry for all those weird things, i don't know how they got there, i accidently bumped the keyboard and they automatically got there)
|
Lia
