My love-hate relationship with the rain

Typhoon Falcon has hit Manila and it’s terrorizing the whole country again.

I had this love/hate relationship with rains and typhoons. when I’m still a student in a Catholic school, I always pray to God for a storm so that they will suspend classes for a day or two. It could also mean irky floods all around the Metro, blackouts if the storm worsens and no comfort food for the family.

When I’m still in college, It’s been a hassle for me to commute during the rainy season. Going to the university means having my feet getting drenched in the flood before going inside the university walls, only to find out that only selected classes were cancelled on that day, and the rest were..well we wait for the time before we learned if there’s a class on a particular subject or not.

…And little did we know that universities and colleges near our campus has suspended their classes for the whole day, crap!

But the good thing is, we still have our allowances for today, yay!

well anyway…

Now that I’m already working as an SEO individual, I still had this love/hate relationship with the rain…

Praying that the storm will pass, and pray that the higher ups will show mercy on us and inform us that we had no work because of the terrifying storm that makes commuting a living HELL for us all… and at the same time we love the refreshing and calming feeling of the rain after the scorching heat of the sun and the choking pollution from the PUJs and PUBs… and how the rain has helped us to sound asleep  because of the coolness that makes us want to cuddle something (or someone) while we doze off to sleep…

I love the rain and I hate it at the same time.
