A couple months ago, there was a fire a few blocks from my house. Everything was covered in ash. It was put out pretty quickly though.

A couple years ago, I was on a camping trip and was evacuated when a huge fire started coming our way. It was the closest I'd ever been to a really big fire. The flames were coming over the mountains that were like half a mile away.

My friends who go to UCSD and UCI have been evacuated cause of the crazy storm of fires that are devouring California right now. It's pretty nuts.

I used to like putting things on fire when I was younger. Pieces of chopsticks and stuff. I liked the smell.
