Had a very amusing day yesterday.

Went out with Jani and Nikki to J8 for lunch after much persuasion on our parts for Jani to come along. Had Long John Silvers (probably 5th time in entire life. don't fancy the fried food much.), talked some about curly hair, and pretty relatives. Then went to Mrs Field's and bought cookies! Some Black Superfudge thing for Jani, the White Chocolate Chip one for Nikki and the Butter Toffee one for me. Munched on cookies and walked around J8. I tried on some shoes. There's a nice Bata sandal! Wish I had had enough money to purchase it then. But then was put off by Nikki laughing at my feet or legs. Hmph. -_- I didn't even want to know what she was laughing at. Hate my legs. Okay, shall not digress into ranting about physical image. Am beyond all that by now. Anwyay, also, looked at iPods and walked around Watsons.

After all that, started to walk back to school. It was cloudy. Was drizzling. Minute droplets that were hardly felt at all.

Saw a boy carrying an umbrella. Nikki made some comment about him being a weakling. Then. It started to pour.

Madness broke out. We made a dash for the bus stop. Then laughed till my stomach hurt. And consequently, the moment we stepped out from any shelter, it started to rain heavier and we concluded it was Nikki. She is accursed. It was hilarious, really. Then we made our way through the labyrinth that is RI and waited for Jani's PRC friend to bring us an umbrella.

When the umbrella, a singular object, came, it was small... and slightly battered. And when Jani opened it, it sort of fell apart. The canvas came off the wire frames. And I started laughing again, because it was like something out of a comedy. It looked like a torture device, or so said Nikki. We managed to hook the canvas back on, somewhat, and laughed all the way back to RJ campus, huddled under that tiny umbrella. Skirt got completely drenched.

Had a really, really nice laugh.
