my mind is in a whirlpool as i ran away in the rain.


i was on my way to an event when it started to rain (downpour in fact). since the distance between the bus stop and the venue was only about 300m, i decided to dash it through the rain.

i've never been too particular about being caught in the rain. i was never sick because of that anyway. besides, carrying a brolly that weighs half a ton in my bag is such a chore.

no prize for guessing what happened next.

within 12 hours, i caught the bloody flu.. urgh. what's wrong?! all along i thought my immune system is strong enough against rain eh.

as i sneeze and wheeze, somehow a bad premonition tells me a fever is on its way.. damnnnit.

i never knew fear could reach such an extent. fear - even by the mere mention. just stay away.
