No Smoke Without Fire

I had gone to the costume shop in town to return my Pirate's costume and had decided to take a bus back home. I walked over to Bugis and boarded the 960 which was waiting there for me. I got on the bus, and true to form, I was asleep within 4 bus stops.

Sometime later, the bus stopped and the air conditioning system went off. I was like, "OK, are we at the interchange yet?" I cracked open my eyes and took a peek. We were somewhere on the expressway. I thought I saw the bus driver walk past my seat (on the outside) toward the back of the bus. My next thought, "Can sleep some more (c:" As I closed my eyes, I caught the smell of hot metal ( I hope you know what I mean) and I had to open my eyes again and look behind to see what was happening. I saw smoke.

"That's interesting!" One lady in the second last seat spoke up and said, "Can we pleased open the door and exit the bus. There is a lot of smoke here." She was so calm, I was impressed! "When we get off the bus, we should move to the front, aware from the danger." I was even more impressed. So cool.

Someone opened the doors and we stepped out. Within about 5 minutes, the next 960 came by, stopped and picked most of us up. Took that bus all the way home.

I was tired but happy.
