Ulaaaannnn....

It's been a long time since I intentionally let myself get wet under the rain.  When I was a child, I would go outside whenever it rained.  I'd run under the rain and feel the water pour down on me.

While going to Rustan's (or was it while we were in Rustan's...?), I told Karla I wanted to intentionally get wet under the rain.  What happened after was not in my plan.

After grocery shopping, we found ourselves stranded in Rustan's.  Rain was pouring hard.  We waited for the downpour to lessen.  While waiting, Karla bought a small-sized popcorn from Holy Kettle Korn.  We finished it off and the rain was still its usual self.  Karla opened the 2-in-1 hopia package she bought.  We almost finished the one in the 2-in-1 package when the rain decided to be kind.  For a while.  It showed its deadly self while we walked towards the trike station.  Before we started searching for a trike, we just burst into laughter.  Actually, I was the one who started laughing.  What's supposed to be a rather annoying situation felt too weird and absurd.  My shirt was almost wet.  My pants got heavy because it was also wet.  It took a while before we got to ride a trike.  Two had Ateneo stickers, but they refused to let us ride.  After waiting for a couple of minutes, one of them agreed.  It turns out he did not want his shoes to get wet.  So he drove us to our destination.

We immediately took a bath when we got back to the dorm.
