as i stepped outside the building, the rain poured on to the streets n it sounded like a million ppl were clappin tiny claps that just amplified to make it sound like many claps, k i dunno wat i just typed but i m sure that is somethin for the readers to wrack their brains against. anyways, the buildin entrance was quite crowded my bus mate (who lives in the buildin next to mine) had come to my stop, she said the area over there was flooded, so she had to come to my stop...n so we waited with our heavy bags hung up on our shoulders givin me jolts of pain that finally convinced me too take out my bio nt bk. i knew that rain could be expected anytime, so i bought my handy plastic file ^^ (yah so i m lazy to go buy an umbrella got a prob?) but we were standin under a shelter n checkin out this wierd shop under my building called multimedia shop, apparently its been opened for quite awhile now but no one usually enters the shop, cuz it has the wierdest merchandise to sell! -_- anyways this is not bout the stupid shop but how global warming is starting to affect our dail lives.
so anyways, after 15mins most ppl started to become restless n agitated. the teachers who lived on the street behind me came my stop (since their street was flodded too),so after 30 mins of waitin with this annoyin bak pak n chatterin my teeth in the cold, my friend's mom got pissed n started phonin the drver. his response was...the way to our street is blocked so he wasn't gonna pik us up...
so thats like more than 15ppl only at my stop!n there were others at other stops! sothats like 30-40 ppl in total (includin us). so seein that i had to wake up at 5:30am n ruin my sleep, n endure my skool bag that seemed to be filled with dumbells, i felt stupid standin in the rain n waitin, u know i can now sympathize with those ppl who have been stood up on their dates. it feels horrible. so ahem my friend was gonna go to skool later with her dad round 8 n offered me a ride, my mom was like forget stay at home its rainin hevily outside, but i dun like to miss skool (yah call me a geek, but i m too lazy to copy stuff later) wen i came out by the situation had become worse than before the pavements were being slightly overflown by water, the traffic was horrible forget the main roads, the streets n service roads had been completely congested! i saw my 2 sis n bros walkin towards their car sulkin as they thought by goin to work in this traffic. ps the reason y i didn't ask them to drop me was cuz all 3 of them work in different areas n i would just be another burden for my bro, plus it was more convenient for me if i went with my friend. but then seein the traffic n all i just decided to just skip the skool, my friend asked me whether i was sure, i was hesitant for a moment but then i cant bear the traffic! i read online on gulfnews that one guy took 7 hours to reach his workstation! (reached at 3pm or sotmehin)
so i gleefully went bak to my house n my mom had that 'told-ya-so' look on her face. n then she goes like 'as i said its useless goin to skool today'
sometimes wen i think bout it, it seems too wierd that my mom is discouragin me from goin to skool while i m debatin against her with all the possible reasons in my mind.
anyways this just a random old song on rain although its kinda sad but i like the sound of it sometimes it feels soo soothin after hearin continous 5hrs of rock music or rap.
but if u wanna listen to a more happy tone then here u r
