Wet day yesterday

I couldn't blog yesterday, because my parents pulled down all the plugs, getting ready for the big moving day: today. But I can say one thing about yesterday: It was MISERABLE! I stepped out of my front door to go to skating class yesterday, and as soon as the doors closed, I turned around and found myself face to face with a rain storm. I didn't have the keys to go back inside, because my parents are going to drive me back. I though, oh well, grabbed my umbrella and stepped into the pouring rain. Not only were there huge puddles to avoid, the roads were obstacles as well. They were only just shallower than a flowing river, and I have to find the shallowest place to cross. Before I got to the skytrain (just at the intersection), I found that the biggest intersection I had to cross, had two metres wide of a river I had to jump over. Obviously I couldn't do that with a heavy trunk, and I landed right in the middle. My right shoe was completely soaked, and I could feel the water squishing in between my toes. When I got to the skytrain, my hair was a little wet due to a tiny leak in my umbrella, my backpack and skating trunk were all wet, and everything from my knee down was completely soaked (also due to having to dodge the water the passing cars produce). I asked a police woman if I could borrow a phone. I phoned my dad, and he decided that he could take me to skating, although I'll have to miss a session. I went back home and waited for my mom to come home to open the doors for me.
