Lockdown for Meth Explosion.

Around 2:45 today, the time I walk into the locker room and see all my home girls on the cross country team, our assistant principal was waiting outside the doors. He said we we're all going to get dressed out then report right outside the doors as fast as possible. From the locker room doors, you can see the gates that lead off campus, or off the court yard. They're usually opened for the football players to get through, but not today! Something was up...! Five minutes later, over the intercom, we are notified we're on a lock down. Haha! YES! No practice! Soooooo after hearing the announcement, none of the girls decided to dress out. We report back to Mr. Munoz (assistant principal) and he tells us to head straight to Ms. Hart's room. We get there and find the whole cross country team in there. Boys and Girls. We're just chillin' in there like we would for a regular lock down. We didn't have to sit and do work like usual though because we were technically at a sports class.
The bell is about to ring for school to release at 3:40. Just then at 3:38, our assistant principal comes over the intercom and says we will NOT be getting released at our regular time. By now, the whole school was freaking. Something serious had to be happening to keep us AFTER school. Yeah, not cool!
Once again, Mr. Munoz comes over the intercom. He said we would be releasing students ONE BUS AT A TIME! Oh my gosh! Are you kidding?! Seriously, it takes forever just to get the bus kids to go. Then he comes over the intercom a last time and says we will have to be individually checked out by our parents to leave the school. So yes, you can imagine how fast kids were telling there parents to get here through texting and calling. Within minutes, 500 parents we're scrambling at the front office with their ID's out. Apparently you had to prove to them you were they're parent. Ridiculous!
My mother finally comes, after being held in my school for about 40 minutes, and we drive and see the line to get inside of parents. Easy, a quarter of a mile of parents. EASY! It was crazy! As my mom and I were walking to the car, we asked a police officer what was going on. (They're was easily 10 police cars there) He said that less than a mile away, just down the street actually, was a meth lab explosion. The hazardious waste crew, or whatever, hadn't come and fully taken care of the area so that's why we we're being held in school. Creepy!
I came home to find my grandmother, told her the whole story. She was a teacher and said that lockdowns we're scarey when she was teaching. She said she had them all the time. Haha, she said it was because she taught at a scarey school. Hahah! Oh Grandma...She also said that to have a meth lab so close to all these mormons was weird. But then she also said that those kind of people put those houses in the least unexpected neighborhoods. OH MY FREAKY! I was freaking out.
I hope no one was hurt. Hopefully, I'll see some of this crazy stuff on FOX 10 News tonight. They were the only news station there I think...or thats all I saw.

So excited for late start tomorrow! YAY! No a-hour. School starts at 10:10 and gets out at regular time. Cha Ching! Also, meet tomorrow at Kino. Stapley, we're going to do amazing! Eating pasta tonight with the MVT swim team, yum! Last exciting thing, MY AUNT JULIE COMES IN TOWN! Basically, shes one of my favorite aunts of all time!!!! So freaking excited!
