Perfect post title, yes? When it rains — because it’s been raining so much lately, it’s ridiculous. Now that kind of thinking is also quite weird, seeing that I should be used to rains especially at this time of year.

Or maybe I’m just saying that because it’s a pain commuting when it rains, and back then whenever it’s raining I just wait for my brother to pick me up. Now it’s either I get a cab (ouch on the pocket!), or I brave the tricycles (which leaves me drenched).

But such is life. Adventure, yes. Not always nice, but yeah, it’s okay.

Anyway, I owe so many promised blog entries, like my recent Cebu trip, my baking escapades, the muddy tree-planting experience and…so much more, but I’m just too darn busy with work, lots of NaNoWriMo stuff and of course new TV shows that are starting one after the other (one of the times I wish I can understand what HDMI cables are) that I couldn’t blog here properly. Save for book reviews which feel like I can churn out without too much thought (wow I am at that point already huh). Bah. I just need to finish PinoyWrimos.com for the launch and then I’ll be able to blog about those things I mentioned above. Gimme this weekend, I’ll get these done, promise!

Anyway, since it’s been raining on and off (and right now it seems like it will rain any minute, from what I can see from the window at my workstation), I leave you with this song from Paramore, the band I’ve been listening to lately. :D Can I just say I love Hayley Williams’ voice? The songs are so angsty, I love it. And I’m not an angsty person. :P

Enjoy!

When It Rains
Paramore
RIOT!

And when it rains on this side of town
It touches everything
Just say it again and mean it
We don’t miss a thing

You made yourself a bed at the bottom of the blackest hole
(Blackest hole)
And convinced yourself that it’s not the reason
You don’t see the sun anymore

And oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh, I, I never saw it coming
And oh, oh, I need the ending
So why can’t you stay just long enough to explain?

And when it rains
Well, you always find an escape
Just running away from all of the ones who love you
From everything

You made yourself a bed at the bottom of the blackest hole
(Blackest hole)
And you’ll sleep till May
And you’ll say that you don’t wanna see the sun anymore

And oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh, I, I never saw it coming
And oh, oh, I need the ending
So why can’t you stay just long enough to explain?

Take your time
Take my time

Take these chances to turn it around
(Take your time)
Just take these chances
We’ll make it somehow
And take these chances to turn it around
(Take my…)
Just turn it around

And oh, how could you do it?
Oh, I, I never saw it coming
Oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh, I, I never saw it coming
Oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming
Oh, oh, I need an ending
So why can’t you stay just long enough to explain?

You can take your time
Take my time
