Gimme Umbrella!

rain rain rain... grrr. bad weather. i hate gloomy weathers because number one, me is very lazy. i don't like carrying umbrella in my bag!! and number two, my laundry is piling up! and when i do attempt to wash them, they have this sickening dampy feel and non-sun-ed smell!! where's my sun? and number three, my office cubicle transforms into a freezing Cold Storage. boo, i miss the sun! miss it LOADs.

just this morning, i decided i better be safe than sorry. went up to my drawer, pulled out the small red umbrella which served me pretty well during the cold autumn showers in Melbourne. i smiled to myself as i placed the umbrella in my bag thinking to myself, yay! i won't be stucked in heavy rainfalls because i have my pretty umbrella.

and true enough, when i got out of the train this morning, it was raining cats and dogs. and as usual, walked the sheltered pathways to the bus stop and rushed for the SBS bus. when i alighted at the bus stop 50metres away from my office, it was still raining quite heavily. how glad i was to have brought my umbrella!

to my embarrassment, as i unfold the pretty red umbrella, it suddenly dawned on me that it's been years since i opened it up. the wires were coming off and the button's breaking apart. worst still, it has holes! -.- i ended up singing, raindrops are fallin' on my head through the 50 metres journey to work this morning. of course, not literally!

yes. i was drenched.

moral of the story?
