Fire At Novena!

(24)
Tuition given in the topic of Study Break from the desk of Miss Loi at 5:14 pm (Singapore time)

Updated on

BREAKING NEWS: A fire broke out at Novena this afternoon.

A sexy maths tutor was on her way to lunch in Novena when she came across this scene reminiscent of the ODEX street protest:

The SCDF Parade

2 x big fire engines + 1 x small fire engine
+ 3 x police cars + 1 x SCDF hatchback

Upon a closer look, the maths tutor was dismayed to find smoke bellowing from a coffeeshop (which incidentally was one of her frequent meal points). A poor old uncle from the neighbouring stationery shop was sufficiently alarmed that he valiantly tried to put out the fire himself using a puny green hose:

Poor Old Man

Burly firemen advising poor uncle (arrowed)
that his puny green hose simply isn’t gonna work.

By that time, the STOMP Brigade had arrived and taken up position:

The Stomp Brigade

Members of the STOMP elite armed with
mobile phones, cameras and
a professionally kaypoh mindset

As if on cue, several fumbling firmen (presumably interns) decided to entertain the crowd with their unique ‘watermanship’:

Blur Firemen

A new way of cooling the engine.
Blur Firemen II

Take that! For not returning the $2
I paid yesterday for your lunch!

After the short performance that elicited muted cheers from the crowd, all eyes were now transfixed on the main event. It was that moment the maths tutor reported seeing a terrifying figure straight out of a scene from a Korean horror flick:

Korean Horror Movie Scene

Can you spot ‘him’?
Korean Horror Movie Scene II

Eeeeeeeks!

Soon enough, the fire at the ground floor was put out by these heroic men. However, there was still something burning within a chimney (originating from a cooking hood in the kitchen) that may cause the fire to spread to the upper floors (that contains a childcare centre).

So the good firemen decided to treat everyone to a bonus high-risk display of hoisting two of their comrades high up in the air to extinguish whatever sinister object (probably the evil-looking figure earlier) that lie hidden within the chimney, much to the joy of the excited crowd snapping away below.

That proved to be the climax to this year’s Children’s Day performance. As the crowd started to disperse and the more forward-thinking ones amongst STOMP brigade began swapping in new memory cards, the maths tutor decided to hang around to find out more on what actually happened.

Her perseverance was rewarded and she’s proud to report this highly-accurate fourth-hand account obtained from eavesdropping on some aunties and uncles in the vicinity:

Fire Path

Cook start fire → cook pour oil →
oil overspilled → fire started →
cook panicked → cook poured water →
fire out of control → cook runs out →
forgot to switch off electricity →
fire got ‘sucked’ into chimney →
STUPID COOK! …

You get the picture. But most importantly we are happy to confirm that there had been no casualties (apart from one particular maths tutor missing her lunch) from this afternoon’s incident.

Though some unfortunate children from the childcare centre upstairs did end up with permanently scarred faces …

Scarred Faces

Scarred for life 🙁

Many thanks for tuning in and to our sexy maths tutor for bringing us this special report from the scene.

頑張って!!!

    Paddy, the heavenly stars must've been all nicely aligned on that fateful day. Astronomers have predicted this phenomenon may only happen once every thousand years.

    P.S. Hope you'd logged off 'naturally'. Sudden hasty actions may send a wrong signal to your wife that you've been surfing some undesirable sites!

    Hello Teacher Chlorine. From your nic, are you sure you don't teach Chemistry instead??

    Right now The Temple is 100% focussed on the O-Levels looming ahead. As such all admin matters i.e. (manpower, restructuring etc.) shall be considered after the exams.

    Meanwhile, as an honourable Level 10 Maths Guru, maybe you can help comment on some of the students' workings here 😀

    May Phua? Where? China Edition somemore. But Precious writes like she's from Africa no?

    HighwayBlogger, the first thing that came to Miss Loi's mind when she saw the nic was "Precious .... my preciousssssssssssss". And then instead of a skinny green creature she saw May Phua!
