I have to give taitai credits for giving me inspiration to blogg.
Erratic is the word. So is the weather, so is my life of late.
I'm sure all of you standing on this little dot in the world map will realize how quick the sky changes lately. One minute you can be melting under the scorching heat, another minute you'll find yourself trapped in some storm that shook everyone by surprise. Or worse, umbrellas prove themself useless and rain just hit you at every angle it can hit.
Before my tutoring yesterday, I was kind of worried that it would rain because the clouds were just so thick and heavy and low in the sky. As if it was hovering just above my head and I just couldn't help feeling that it would disintegrate into a mass of droplets anytime. But when we wanted to do make up PE later in the same afternoon, we had a big round sunny sun shining brightly on us. Great. After a 2.4km (I ran the whole journey ok, never slack at all. So unlike me) run my vision consisted of only ONE colour - red. Precisely the colour of the track. For a minute or so I was almost blinded by the track. I actually closed my eyes at certain stretches to save myself from further agony. We actually ran half a round before realizing we didn't do warm ups -.-" But we carried on...
Leg aches followed as a result of that.
It's time for today's story now. After GP all of us went to coffeeshop for ban mian. The sun was shining brightly, nobody in the right mind would expect a storm. Since all big tables were occupied, we chose the one at the side - the shelter was just able to cover Lele's head. I was joking about how half-wet she might get if there was rain. When we were still queuing for our orders to be taken, the sky rumbled. All of us went "Harrrrrr...." Then all of us hoped that rain would only pour after we finished our meal at least.
But no. You just have to be in the left mind to be right. Not long after that water splashed everywhere. A few seconds later, the seven of us(the exclusion of Suzzy who lunched in the canteen, most fortunately) crowded around a small table. Phew, at least we could dine in a demure manner, and not taking free baths in rainwater. When we thought all was well for us, wind blew. Strong wind blew, and blew the blinds up. In our direction. Sending more water droplets in. We had to pull the table further in so that Piao Lele and HP wouldn't be drenched. And when we looked up occassionally, there was water leaking from the ceiling. Not one patch, but a few. Oh my the coffeeshop needs renovation desperately. If not when the next storm strikes, I'm not so sure whether the outer part would still be intact.
Someone should really be innovative and redesign the umbrella. Because in such erratic storm, umbrella only provides shelter to your head. No, maybe not even your head, because nice hairdos collapse even with the umbrella.
I did something unglam during Econs. It wasn't on purpose of course, I would even say it was reflex. I left my phone on the table, and went to wonderland shortly after that. So I was playing with Alice and rabbits when a sudden earthquake shook me. I opened my eyes with a jerk, to find my phone vibrating violently and Kylie grabbed it to prevent it from sliding down the table. Now why was the table slanted anyway? Should report faulty you know.. Anyway guess what? I got a message asking me to wake up -.- Indeed I did! Argh and both Kylie and Aulia saw my unglam act of jerking suddenly at the arrival of the message. So I made Econs lecture today something that brings them smiles when they think of it again:) Considered a good deed right?
In addiction to 'STAR' (in case you haven't realized, it's the song that's playing now)... Just can't shake the tune out of my head.
Human radio.
