two rain crazy lunatics
i woke at the urgent calling of my roommate.......'it's raining...use ur raincoat as i'm taking ur umbrella'..i was still groggy...although it was morning 10:30,i was sound slleping..the constant steady sound of rain was acting as a tranquilizer..but hearing the news i really woke up as i left my raincoat a few days ago in my lab n was always forgetting to get it back..my typical laid back attitude...anyway the only option left to us now was to share my umbrella to school....i got ready at a lightning speed....n then two of us set out with one umbrella between us to school..both of us took a change of dress with us..it was raining really hard..we took precaution not to get more wet than necessary....new york city's drainage system is not equipped to deal with this kind of rain..so the road was turned into small rivulets...n we had to work really hard to avoid them..i was wearing a pair of flipflops as they r easy to remove once when i reach school..all of a sudden one of it took flight..it washed down in one of the rivulets and took a ourse of its own...forgetting all about getting wet we ran after it......by rthe time my adventurous flipflop returned to me both of us were soaked to bone..forgetting all about the umbrella now we made our way to school......using the now functionless umbrella as a parasol we just made our way to school singing at the top of our voice ........by d time we reached school both of us wear thoroughly drenched in the rain......but gay as a jay....made our way to lab..changed our dresses and set to work..but will remember this morning forver..one happy carefree moring when we bathed in rain without a care for the world...........
