Rainy Season Saga

My story begins on a Tuesday. Actually it ends on a Tuesday too... but anyway. It looked like rain all day. But it wasn’t till I was trying to leave that it actually started to try and rain. So I grabbed an umbrella and started on my quest to get back home, excited to get to use an umbrella. As I took the gravel path home (opposed to the street) I realized it wasn’t even raining. Why was I using an umbrella?? However, I got to the street and suddenly it started to rain. Two minutes later the bottom came out and my Converses were no longer blue. Within ten minutes my skirt was totally soaked too…. Let me just say, puddles are fantastic! But maybe even more so in actual rain boots….??

One more thing I just have to get out there. I love rain!!!! Actually, let me change that, summer rain. Not such a huge fan of rain in the winter. But here if it's not raining, it's hot and sticky. So really, I'd rather the rain.

Sharon (my Japan mom) freaked out when I got home. Why hadn’t I called to get a ride home?? She wasn’t convinced when I told her I had this thing for walking in the rain, (as in loved it!!).

Side note; I’ve really had a hard time getting along with Sharon. But God’s been so good, and I can tell that Sharon's and my relationship has really grown, and I feel really close to her. :D
