rain

What a cold day. A good one to some, alright to most, bad for the unfortunate souls. Mine happen to be in the last category, for reasons I am still trying to search for. Probably it's because of the lack of Vitamin D from the Sun, it's vital for me to get some exposure in the morning or my whole day will be moody (lame excuse). But really, it was pretty bad for me. Even worse for my sister. Us poor souls, I seek Thy mercy.

I got drenched a few times just now, which is really my own fault because I am too stubborn for my own good. I just have this thing against carrying an umbrella... don't you think it takes up so much of your bag space and very troublesome to carry the wet umbrella around? I don't care if some of you carry if because of defence reasons (e.g. use it as a weapon to deal with molesters), but there are really more convenient methods like pepper sprays! Another reason of why I don't really use one is that it doesn't make me feel very nice when I leave a wet trail of raindrops from my wet umbrella when I walk around in shops. & who knows! I might even trip on it. Umbrellas can be a health hazzard sometimes (yea to molesters too). I'd usually go for alternatives of umbrellas like a raincoat or something. I remember wearing a yellow one to school back in Indonesia. ... good old memories! The weather's making me feel nostalgic. :)

Speaking of which, raining in Singapore feels so much different than when it rains over here. I dread it so much whenever I sense the rain coming. The wind + the low temperature here makes it a very unpleasurable experience to have. It makes you feel more miserable rather than happy, which is what I usually get back there. You know how sometimes you have the impulse to run into the rain and start dancing like some mad hoboe and then you feel damn good after that? Yea, I get it all the time in Singapore... but rarely here. Unless you like the feeling of shivering for a loooong time even after you managed to get indoors. I guess snow's the thing for UK, not rain... which I got a chance to experience last week. I will update on it soon enough, with pictures! & a loooooooong story.

Well, after saying a whole load on (basically) rubbish, I missed out on the original topic: My bad day. I thought that it should pretty obvious by now that I am not a good story-teller. I always go out of topic and emphasize on the most trivial stuff and leave out the important bits. Sigh, what a shame.

& yes should I say this one more time: I am not a good story-teller.
