Well, we've been getting hit with a ton of rain due to the typhoon hitting southern Asia. I usually walk the mile to work, but this morning it was just pouring (as it had been all day yesterday), and I was the only person on the streets without an umbrella. I thought I'd go by the grocery store and get one but they were closed (open till midnight but closed at 8 in the morning. weird). So I rode the bus, but I was already soaking when I got on it. I hadn't ridden this bus to school before so I was kinda taking a chance. I got a little scared when it made a turn away from the road that I normally take to get to school, but it turns out it takes a different route to the school.

After school, I came home and took a little nap. I've been very tired recently. I got up from my nap at 6:45 and decided I needed to go for a run if I was going to be at all useful for the rest of the evening. So glad I did. As soon as I got outside, there was a perfectly clear, big rainbow coming from near the park where I was going to run. As I ran towards the park, I noticed a lot of people taking pictures of it with their cell phones. It was an amazing sight and was captivating everybody. When I got into the park, I was out of the tall buildings and trees so I could see its full beauty. The top part was not visible, but you could see a portion of the other end coming out of a mountain top to the north-east. At one point, the main section looked as if it was coming out of this big church across from the park. I wish I had had my camera.
