Rainy Days and Wednesdays

"... let the rain fall down and wake my dreams" -- Come Clean, Hillary Duff

Rain is pouring very hard outside....

As far as I remember, the heavy rain started at around 2 in the morning. I was still half-asleep then, thinking of what word problem will I give in my exam that was supposed to be given this afternoon. I just brushed it aside ang just went on my slumber.

But lo and behold! The rain was STILL pouring very hard when I woke up at around 6:30 am. I just saw my cell phone vibrating wildly because of a phone call from a student (namatay lang kasi nag-empty batt na 'yung phone ko), and I found myself reaching for my headphone radio. According to the reports, it was really that worse outside.

Well, I had no choice but to run to my favorite computer shop (no, not that "Tech" thing anymore...pindot-pindot na hehehe...) not really to "enjoy" the rainy day but to notify my students via "Chikka" that their exam today is postponed. Well, I'll also enjoy myself here as long as I can hold on to my bladder he-he-he...^_^

Hmmm...come to think of it, this is also a blessing in disguise for me. I could start checking those long overdue midterms bluebooks in my Math 17 and 53 classes (100++ bluebooks in all), and finish typesetting my share of the manuscript of the new Math 17 textbook. Well, and have some time to snooze in the office maybe....

With those things under way, I can still enjoy my day today amidst the cruel weather outside...

Oh, well, so much for the word problem....and so much for the exam....

...and the rains ^_^
