I'm paying for the latest adventure I had in the rain.
As you all know Typhoon Juan (Megi) came through the top of Luzon, it was referred as a super typhoon and we felt the effects here in Manila also.
Unbeknown to me I hate thought it had already gone by on the Monday I woke up and it wasn't too bad, overcast so still ok to go to school. No real updates on the TV so I thought pretty safe.
Anyways I got to Salceido Village and the winds had obviously picked up, after a quick dinner I headed off to class.
Whilst class was ending, we heard the rain and it was Typhoon Juan letting it's presence be felt by all of metro Manila.
After several taxis later who refused to take me to my home (about 15mins away without traffic) I finally got one and the rains seemed to subside.
So I thought it would be a great idea to get off at Burgos Circle to get some dinner for Rom and walk home. No later did I get out of the taxi, did it POUR hard from every direction. My poor umbrella couldn't take the winds so I thought it better to just simply walk in the rain. Except I was literally soaked in 2 secs - no joke!
I got home and Rom said 'what happened to you?' I said 'I took a shower'.... 4 days later I've got a cold :(
