Rain on the tin roof woke me up around 5 this morning. Figured it was a nice time to read and make rice atole. Besides, the bug noises were bothering me and i kinda wanted to see which irritating and possibly gross insect was flying around my room. Never found it.
Walking down the road to the bus stop i met a teacher from a nearby primary school. As we maneuvered our way around the mud and puddles he told me that the rain was disturbing them because the day scholars don't go to school when it rains.("Disturbing" here refers to anything/anyone that causes problems or is a source of irritation)And since most of them are day scholars at this primary school, there were hardly any students at all. Teachers don't have time to repeat the lesson, so when the rains do stop and the students come back to school, they are potentially missing a whole rainy season's worth of information!

ReplyDeletei would rather wake up to the sound of rain
on a tin roof
than creaking of wood from the weight of snow!
scary~~~
i love rain!
okay, let me rephrase, i love rain when i am inside reading, listening to music,
drinking a cup of tea...
Are day scholars students who do not board at the school?
Are most day scholars because boarding is expensive?
In general, do most people stay inside during the rainy part of the day?
Or do you see a sea of umbrellas?
or as pauline would say~ "umbarellalas"
stay dry, and watch the puddles!!
