FIRE drill

I was told that there would be a fire drill today at 1:10.  At 1:05, an alarm sounded off with a Korean voice giving us what I assume were directions on what to do.  My coworker and I walked out of the school (we took a longer route to the back entrance) to find a group of teachers outside talking.  I couldn't understand most of it obviously but I could decipher teachers yelling "FIRE!" with a raised, flapping hand and the insueing laughs from everyone else.  After a minute outside we returned to the lobby of the school because the drill didn't actaully start for a few more minutes aparantly. The fire jokes continued until finally one of the faculty pulled a fire alarm and everyone grabbed their nose, covering their mouth, and ran/pushed through the door we had just re-entered.  Some of them continued to yell "fire" as we escaped the building. This time, we went over to some big bleachers and stood while a man that I assume worked for the fire department placed this can on the ground that sprayed red smoke into the air.  Of course, we were downwind from the can, so the "fake fire" blew right into our faces and smelled TERRIBLE/i assume caused cancer or something.  Then we watched and applauded as some teachers used fire extuingushers on the can of smoke (which also eventually blew up to sourround the spectators) and another "put it out" with a fire hose. All the while someone took pictures of us standing around, as well as our saviors with the extinguishers and hose.  To conclude a fireman (again, I think...) spoke to us for a while and we went back inside. 

It is the last day of exams so the students did not have class this afternoon but there were some playing sports near where we practiced this drill. They also had no part in any of it.

I feel safer now?
