It rained today. It rained so much that I finally gave in and purchased an overpriced, twelve dollar umbrella from the campus convenient store. I don't know why an institution that snatches thousands of dollars every year (and rising!) sees the need to charge an obscene amount of money for mundane items like shampoo or umbrellas, but they do.
Our environment is very influential on our moods, but it's funny how weather patterns one day induce one feeling, while another day it becomes something completely different. A blizzard on Christmas morning is ideal, and when it comes to school snow days there is nothing more satisfying. A wintery wonderland while attempting to make an eight hour drive home is less than exciting however. Same holds true for the rain. I love rainy Sundays. Sunday has the wonderful reputation for being lazy and I love the ambiance of pitter-pattering rain drops on my window while I am inside with my nose in a book snuggled up in pajamas and moccasins. Today I didn't like the rain. Stranded in my wet walk from class to class all morning without a hat or hood...I didn't even have proper footwear on! Silly me. I think I'm going to get into the habit of checking the weather each morning.
