A Fire in our building!

Hello! I’m alive! The craziest thing just happened. It was about 02:30 when my boyfriend walks out into the kitchen and says he smells smoke (?). I instantly think I’d left the stove on but it seems to be coming from outside. When we look out we realize there’s 3 police cars and 3 fire-trucks standing right outside our building, infront of our entrance! :0

We start getting a bit scared since the smoke felt pretty heavy, it smelled alot like burnt plastic and it made my eyes sting a bit. Our initial thought was to grab our stuff; keys, cellphone,  the cat and get out of the house but when we opened our door to get out in the stairwell the smoke was so thick that it looked foggy and the smell started coming in to the hallway. Ok, by now it might seem like there were flames in our appartment, but it wasnt quite that bad. The smoke was starting to scare us tho, so we called 112 (Swedens ”911″ number) to ask them what the hell to do since the stairwell was so smokey and they told us to just stay inside.

My instinct was to keep my shoes and jacket on and for some reason fill a bucket with water. It felt safe >_<. The fire-trucks and police cars went away just about 30 minuits ago and now it 05:00. I have definately not been able to go to bed while they still were outside. I would expect to get some typ of information when something like this happens, but nothing! What if it was a huuge fire, how would we have known how big the risk was? We had no any idea of how big the fire was or where it was burning. I think it wa pretty close to us, just a floor or two close to us. I hope no one got hurt :/.

Me and my boyfriends are going to go out for a little walk soon to see how things are looking from the outside. I leave you with some pictures, because, ofcourse when you are facing a scary situation like this the first thing you think  is ”ooh.. I should put this on my blog!..Just need to take pretty pictures..” :D
