random rumination

The sun has finally asserted its dominance. After three days of Fork-ish overcast to rainy skies and feeling like the abandoned Bella, today the air was warm enough to lure Bjork out of the house and groom itself in the garden.
The rain came early. While we were enjoying bowls of hot congee at the school cafeteria to dispel the creeping cold, little did we know that three key cities in the province were already under waist-deep rainwater.
Back in the days, this is the time for cold breezes from the north, winds strong enough to lift our skirts, dry earth and sore eyes. The weather bureau forecasted more rains to come until March which meant going to the beach may not be a perfect get away this summer.
Oh, where to go?
