i had a 9 o'clock meeting last friday but past 9:00 when i went to the venue, the door was locked and no attendees were in sight. there was an announcement of work suspension actually due to the heavy rains.
i therefore took the opportunity to go to the bank. i was supposed to go monday yet but i couldn't squeeze it into my schedule.
there was only a slight drizzle when i left our building to walk to the bank. yup, i just walk. i don't bring the car; i don't take the available public transportation. the weekly walk to the bank is actually my ONLY form of exercise : }
so there i was in the bank and it was so quick as there were more open counters than there were customers.
from the bank i went to KFC just a building away to buy the food requested by my officemates.
from there i again walked back to our office. guess what, halfway and heavy rains suddenly poured! the umbrella could only protect me so much and i was getting wet from foot to mid-thigh!!!
i entered our room wailing, 'waaah! my legs are cold...'
my officemate who plays badminton offered me her sweatpants.
i declined saying i could bear it.
she says if i don't change then veins are going to appear on my legs.
really??? yikes, borrow please...
she shows me two: a pair of full-length red pants and a mid-calf white one. i don't really like red so i went for the white. then my wet pants i just hang in one of the tables inside my room. i then went out but just within our office as i looked too casual even for casual friday, haha
going back to my room i was struck by the sight of my pants hanging from one of the side tables on the left and my regular desk straight ahead. i laughingly told my officemate if the roving guard checks out my room with me sitting at my desk, he might think i am sitting in there with no pants on. ooops, hahaha...
