Although the rain brings a welcome relief from the heat, it brings its own set of woes too. For one, because the classrooms in our school are not found in a single building, teachers and students have to go walk some distance to get to other function rooms like the laboratory, music room, canteen, etc. And with the rain constantly wetting the floor and the walkways, the whole transferring from one room to the next has become an elaborate obstacle course. Second, because acoustic was not the most significant consideration during the creation of the classrooms. the classrooms suffer from instant background rumbles and noises from the rain especially when it is pouring down really hard. Teachers valiantly fight but often end up losing their voices, during these times. Third, because teachers still have to constantly instruct, demonstrate, and transfer from one room to another every 45 minutes, we can’t help but sweat (sometimes even profusely) despite the cold brought about by the rain. The oil, which stays because of the low temperature, traps dirt, chalk, and other things in the skin from the air, thereby promoting acne and other skin infections related to oil accumulation.

I know the rainy days have their ups (coldness, no classes, etc.), but rainy days sure have their downs too.

Oh I can’t wait for Christmas! Hehehe!
