Rain Rain Go Away

Nothing is worse than having to walk outside without an umbrella when it rains, at least, when the temperature is not that warm yet. That was me today. Because of my sleeping habits, I stumbled out of bed this morning, realizing I was late for a class and thus did not think to bring an umbrella. And of course, it was pouring outside as I was getting out of my first class. What's worse? This wet madness continued on for the rest of the day, rendering me completely helpless in trying to prevent myself from getting wet. The last thing I want to feel is wet and cold at the same time. But guess how I felt for the majority of the day?

WET AND COLD!

First, I tried to salvage what's left of my straightened hair by putting my hand over it and trying to cover as much of it as I could (unfortunately, I didn't wear any hats or shirts with hoods on them). I gave up as soon as I realized my hand was pretty much drenched in water and that it probably wasn't helping much.

And since I did not know it was going to rain today, I wore flats. FLATS! The worst shoes in rainy, wet weather because they go up the shortest, allowing water to flow in and out freely. So no matter how much I tried to avoid stepping in puddles today, my flats were inevitably soaked. And running to catch the bus at one point without looking and stepping into a deep muddy puddle, splattering water onto my jeans and soaking my feet definitely did not help.

No rainy day ever looks that enchanting...
