Driving in Lethbridge is unlike an experience that I have ever witnessed.
It's windy (ofcourse) and the weather is practically endless in its never ending endurance in its attempts to shove me off the roads whilst crossing Whoop Up and into the river. When we finished shopping and went outside again, the environment had changed drastically. We were driving back home towards the university when Shaun pointed out a plume of white smoke in the distance, and from where we were standing, it looked like it was coming from out school year home. We raced home and realized that it was coming from behind the university. We drove around to attempt to find where the source of these billowing clouds of noxious gasses were coming from. As we drove towards the outskirts of the city, peoples fences were blown completely down, ever single piece of debris was blowing against the car. There is never an traffic in Lethbridge, but today it was like 5pm down Deerfoot. We saw the fire and went back to res. Shelbeh let us in and told us that bad news, some other cars in parking lot E were unfortunately parked horizontally to the wind and as a result, the windows had blown in. I drove Shelbeh over to her car, and her window had blown in too.
Then we heard on the news, from other friends living off campus, and from our Ra's that the fires had got out of hand due to the wind and we were on standby. Well, everyone started running around panicking. I am not exempt from this however, I was running around trying to get as much information as possible about what he would have to do. Kendall said get a bag packed and be ready to leave if things did indeed get out of control. Well, you all know me, I was ready and packed to go in 2 minutes flat. (My mother taught me well). I had all the possessions I would need to last, with the wind conditions and location in my logistics. Emma had three bags, twe of which were filled to the brinks with shoes (highly practical).
We then got the warning that we did not need to move, even though there were six fires around Lethbridge and a storm warning. After all that excitement, Will Smith came down and proposed a movie. 28 Days Later. If in 28 days, I look back on this day and the events of this movie came true, there will be no force great enough to prevent me from smacking him up the back of the head.
