Sunshine at last!

The past few days rained constantly because of Tropical Storm "LANDO". The storm was a hassle and a blessing I guess. It was cold and I had lots of sleep. It is nice to see the sun again,but there is another storm coming. Woot another storm! I hope there will be no power outage, strong winds and heavy downpour. One thing I like about rain is that the feeling of surrealism. Everything is dreamy, less people walking the streets and the calming sounds of raindrops. It may sound cheesy but try to listen to the Apo Hiking Classic "Pumapatak Naman Ang Ulan" Parokya Ni Edgar version. A nice song to listen while lying in bed. Hey I'm a bum and have the luxury of not doing anything.
