"Mi Vida es de pelicula!"

I have to say being a Meteorology student should make me more aware of the weather on a day to day basis but it's not that way. Let's begin with a few instances where I've had issues..... OOH today is a good place to begin. I forgot my umbrella being that it is a 60% chance of rain today, yea not smart.... So I get out of class and it's pitch black outside and I am riding the shuttle bus, I take out my neck badge (with credit card and license in it) and run out of the shuttle under sprinkles of rain. As I got to the train station I realized I left my neck badge in the shuttle! Yes exactly what you are thinking, I ran out across the street in front of very angry morning drivers (who are in a hurry to get to work because they woke up late and think it's every one's fault) who then stick out their not so nice fingers at me and let me tell you it's not the thumbs up, ear picker or the pointer.

I yelled to the shuttle bus driver STOP! and he stops for me to get in, I hurriedly tell him I have forgotten something and make a poor guy stand up who hits me in the face with his folder as he stands up for me ( of course purely accidental- or was it!?) Guess what? I don't find it, it was not on the floor or on the chair, as I turn around to get off to see if I find it on the floor, I see the shuttle driver halfway down the block heading towards his next destination with me in it! Of course I couldn't make more of a scene than I had already done, so I waited to get off on the next stop. I get off on the next stop and it starts pouring cats and dogs, or at least that's what the water felt like as it came down on me. I yelled to the sky "God I bet your having a big laugh huh?" and of course at that moment harder it came down.

I finally got on the bus with squishing shoes and dripping clothes and said well I'm going to be late to work so I might as well take my car (as I leave it there in the train station and take the train everyday) So under the rain I start walking up and down looking for my car and then a lady asks "are you leaving?" and I said "yes but I can't find my car" (Erick parks the car I don't) and yes she laughed at me (picture me drenched still walking under the rain with all my bags "looking for my car") She must of thought I was crazy.

So I said forget it I'll take the train, I heard the train coming so I started running into puddles and yes.............. I fell and so they laughed, I held back my tears and held my head up high as I squished away. All I can say to you is don't forget your umbrella, have money for gas, have a cell phone ready, and check the weather everyday! Or if you are like me then make sure to wear your water proof clothes, shoes and definitely makeup!!!
