Also I really like umbrellas. It's like "I have a roof! I carry it with me!"...Umbrellas always amuse me.
- John Green in Umbrellas Amuse Me: Observations from One Day in Munich
My day started too late. Too late means 11:00 a.m., which is too late considering that I should have been at university at 8:30 and promised my mom to call her at 10:00.
After some soup for breakfast, lunch or whatever it was I went to university, because the internet decided not to work again and I had to do some homework online.
I was there for nearly two hours. Sitting in the hallway, freezing. I love old buildings, but they are not fun in the winter. And if you're wondering why I was sitting in the hallway: You can only sit in the hallways or on cold stairs or in the library. There are no rooms to go when you have to wait or just want to work...old building...really old.
I decided to go home and as a left the building I stood in the rain. Oh rain, how much do I love you?
I'm glad it's raining and not snowing. I do not like winter and can't wait for spring. And mild weather and rain are the first signs of spring.
I was so happy about the weather that I grabbed my camera and an umbrella and went to a park to take some pictures. The only thing I forgot: It's january, which means the day ends at 4:30 pm.
So I stood there in the dark. I was a bit disappointed and the pictures didn't turn out how I wanted.
But I'm happy. And that's the important thing.
And I finally have a reason to share this quote. Love it!
Location: Burggarten Vienna in front of a Mozart statue. The big building in the background is the Museum of Art History, the only museum I like. The road between the park and the museum is the Ringstraße, a circular road surrounding the first district of Vienna. The first district is the one with all the main tourist attractions...
Note #01: I write down the location to educate you bit... :)
Note #02: If the rain isn't heavy I usually don't use an umbrella. I went to the Burggarten without using the umbrella. I used it for the photos and went back to the underground station without it... ;)
I love the rain, too!
ReplyDeleteI love the rain as well! I almost never use an umbrella though. :)
ReplyDeleteI don't particularly like steady, soft, long lasting rain, because I have a mild case of SAD. and it really drains me of energy. I absolutely LOVE storms though, and rain blown around with gusts of powerful wind... It feels so electric and real and ALIVE, and makes ME feel alive… man, I could use a thunderstorm right about now! XD lol. I now love umbrellas-I was actually given an adorable mini for Christmas by my sister, and I didn't have one for my car before so that was perfect ^_^. I was tempted to just open it up and walk around the house with it because it is so cute -^_^-. I can't wait for an occasion to use it!
