rain, go away

the weather is so crazy right now. i want to hide under my blankets and hibernate until it's over. i had the day all planned out-- sleep sleep and more sleep! sleeping is best for weather like this. but my mother dragged me out of the bed with her playful voice and a hug before lunchtime. i felt like a little girl but then again, she always does that.

i'm at the outer living room where there are humongous windows in place of walls. i can see the outside behind the flimsy curtains. the trees are swaying aggressively-- swish, swosh, swish, swosh.

at least we still have electricity and dsl. cable is temporarily down.

for once in my life i want the typhoon to go away because i have better things to do. hey you, come back another day. :(

trivia: did you know that the Philippines is one of the most badly hit by man-made and natural calamities? it's sad. i thought it was Bangladesh. and this storm Milenyo is the worst typhoon in twenty years to hit the country. this summer there's El Nino and who knows what's going to happen next year. it's not that i'm anticipating it. i'm dreading it.

i have a month to write a kick-ass essay for some kick-ass reason. i'm researching and taking necessary steps to write a good essay but i'm still dumbfounded by how to actually start. maybe after midnight because i think and write better during ungodly hours. i have little confidence but i will be the biggest loser to not give it a shot. i really want this.

i am seriously hoping that the astrological assumption that what Leos want, Leos get is true.
