Just last week, I was one of the many people here in Manila who kept on complaining about the sweltering heat here in the big city. It was so hot that you have to keep yourself rehydrated by drinking lots of fluids and keeping yourself indoors with the airconditioner turned on. It all changed this week...
Monday morning while I stepped out of the front gate of our house, I looked up at the sky. It seems to be cloudy today... oh well, at least it won't be hot going to work. It was a usual weekday afternoon, until I went out of our building to take my usual afternoon break. Uh oh.
It was raining cats and dogs. I should've brought an umbrella with me.
By the time our shift ends, my friends and I took our usual walk to the bus stop. We were not different to those people who wasn't able to bring an umbrella that time. Thank God for the underpass here in Makati.
The crowd was in a hurry to get in the nearest bus available in the stop. My friends and I decided to push our way to the bus available to be able to go home as soon as possible. The ride going to Buendia/LRT seemed long because of the impending traffic. I was lucky enough that my jeepney ride from Buendia to our home seems bearable.
As always, my mom scolded me for not bringing an umbrella. ^_^; I changed clothes, ate dinner and went on my way to our choir practice. I think it was my longest Monday for this month.
My friends and I learned our lesson. Yesterday, we brought an umbrella and true enough, it rained yet again.

looks like rainy days are here to stay for awhile. I get scolded too for not bringing an umbrella. Dont we all? Mondays always drift longer than any other days. A Leah theory, I guess. ;)
