Big rain
Hot 2 |
It was raining heavily at 7 a.m. when most people were on the way to work. Though the weather bureau still does not officially declare the arrival of rainy season, it has truly come in advance. This year’s rainfall is relatively larger than previous years which has already caused many of southern areas flood. The downpour definitely pained people since the roads were all stagnated with water that everyone hardly walked. I am considering why we have so advanced modern metropolises yet enjoy no benefit of public construction. Since the capability of drainage, the negligence we mostly do not care, is one of the important measurements for a city’s completion of infrastructure.
In less than half a hour, most sections turned into oceans and rivers. Only buses could be available and became that main vehicles carrying people to work. The drainage wells always pale in terms of water flooding over roads. There were news reportedly several years before, some drivers were caged and drowned to death in cars by accident of being wrong driving into seemingly shallow puddles.
I like rain, while do not have a sense of romance with such a big one. Some colleagues complained the rain made their shoes wet. What a awful morning. This scene is usually supposed to happen in hot summer days, but it just came. Didn’t know it would be as huge as like that and did not know when it pours down. The umbrella is only comforting to bring in case of the unexpected rain, because under that condition, it almost saturates most parts of clothes, even a rain cape can not help escaping that occasion.
We sometimes claim ourselves wise, somewhat ironic, it humiliates us back when we are talking of nature.

- I always wanted to take a photo or video of a girl walking in heavy rain but never had the chance to do that. May be you can try that but make sure you don't get yourself wet and cold.

- It is easy to build a city or town, but it is not that easy to complete all those ancillary facilities like drainage. Nature is powerful and when it hits, it can hit hard. Heavy downpours can cause sudden flooding, muddy roadways and soaking everything. It is a regular sight to see those ladies holding their high heel shoes wading through the water on the way to work.
When it rains hard, even an umbrella is not of much use. The raincoats are leaky. Those polythene socks which protects the shoes from getting wet are quite useless. There would be a few more months of heavy rain, so let us get prepared for that.

- That scene is quite romantic and elegant. And a picture of that rainy image is vivid for imagination. Almost every time, I feel quite cool in mind since the rain makes me calm down.

The picture of a girl walking in the rain by holding an umbrella can be sometimes caught in the Lake here. When I go to there for a walk, I always see some good scenery there and many people are taking pictures. Since the good environment brings inspiration for art creating, some models also join the army of lake photographing. Especially, in rainy days, it is surely romantic to run into some of girls with umbrellas. If possible, you might see some of them when you visit here someday.
It is said there is going to rain heavily, and the weather bureau has warmed people to be careful when they go out.

- Especially those days, rainy and cool, not so hot. People feel cozy to go around there. I feel lucky to live in this land where is nice. Sometimes, I can even run into some couples are taking wedding pictures. Because almost every spot around the Lake is so fit for that. Considering the order of tourists and management not everywhere is allowed for couples to take pictures, there are several designated places for them to photograph.
