Fun in the Rain~

Today I went to Itaewon to get a pair of pants and to meet two of my friends from high school. I had this plan for almost a month and then when I woke up it was pouring rain!! First, I hesitated about going out so I called and tried to cancel. However, somehow during the conversation the rain started to slow down. So, here I go to Itaewon!

First, I leave the house and it started to rain again so went back up to my house and closed the windows. Meanwhile, I missed the bus to the station. I waited about 15 more minutes and then the bus came. I got on the bus and went to the subway station. As soon as I got off the bus, there goes the subway. I waved goodbye and said, "Great, now i have to wait 20 more minutes." I was already an hour late from the original plan. Due to the rain we pushed the waiting time to an hour later. However, after the smooth subway ride I got to Itaewon and there goes the rain pouring all around me and my 6,000 won umbrella was not doing its job! The rain was coming through:(

One of my friends was already there that i have not seen in a year and the other one was soon to come. Everyone had arrived and now we had to decide where to go eat. the place where we wanted to go was too far because of the rain so we picked another place close by. However we walked 3 minutes and I was already soaking wet!! After having a good cheeseburger at a place called Geckos, we decided to have some coffee. We were walking towards Cafe Bene and it took about 8 minutes to get there. In that 8 minutes, i had the most fun i had in years! I love to play in the rain! I was splashing one of my friends and she was splashing me. We were chasing each other in the rain and having the time of our lives!

Finally we arrived at the coffee shop and as i was staring out the window at the rain pouring on an outside table, i thought to myself, " i have been using "being busy" as an excuse not to have fun but actually i was not having fun because i was lazy." Staying home watching shows on the internet, working on classses and doing the same thing every day, work, home, classes, shows, in whichever order you want to put it in. It became a ritual to me, work, home, classes, shows... every day was the same just with different clothes and a different show.

If I base it on the fun I had today, I would just love to jump up and have fun everyday. But, tomorrow is a brand new day and I do not know which side of the bed I will wake up on. So we will see how the having fun thing goes:)
