I love to eat my mom’s batangas lomi during rainy days.

While others tend to sip a hot bowl of Bulalo or fall into a deep slumber, I prefer to release my singing prowess in videoke! I’m the weird kind of guys who will face the rainy days in a good way. I will sing my heart out in the rain making me awake in a bed weather! The good thing about singing(Videoke sessions)while it’s raining is you can’t disturb your fellow neighbors (The rain is muffling my chaotic voice) and gives justification to why the heck it’s raining as my Lola would put it, “Kaya pala bumabagyo eh, kumakanta ka na naman!”
~Nothing beats videoke on a rainy day! Instead of grabbing that umbrella why not grab the mike and sing your heart out! ☻

You know those people who associate rain with sadness? I’m one of them. But it’s not necessarily that kind of sadness that dampens your spirit that I connect with the downpour. At times, it’s one that just makes you look back and stare at reminiscence straight in the face. Which isn’t always a bad thing. It’s that silent moment when you hear the thudding of raindrops against the roof, or the crumbling of clouds to the sound of thunder, or the beating of your heart when you were still a kid, nothing more. That silent moment you claim as yours. To reflect and rethink about things past, present, and future.
In this moment of self-immersion, I typically find myself ruminating upon things which I’d like to dismiss as a little stranger and more random than the usual musings one can have during a doused weather. For instance, thinking about Claire Danes, whom I’ve forever frozen in my memory as Juliet. I’d imagine her to be that fine-looking lady with cherub wings, walking towards Leonardo DiCaprio, now walking towards me, now touching my face with her soft pale hand, and everything, pristine and porcelain, is, at the same time, phantom-like. And I’d start wondering: what could she be doing right at this very moment I’m attempting to reach her through thoughts? Is it raining in her side of the world? Is “Romeo + Juliet” playing on someone else’s laptop? How about “Kissing You,” how many have listened to the movie’s OST today? How many of us could be sharing these same contemplations?
Usually, at times like this, I end up writing a poem or a song, which I will not finish. I will find myself hurting a bit from an imaginary pain whose roots I will never trace. However, no matter how weird or disconnected it sounds, I will feel an epiphany of sorts submitting to all these haphazard meanderings.
When it rains, I try to seek connections among experiences. No matter how vague, how volatile. No matter how real or unreal; how small or significant. It’s a healthy way of waiting for the sun to come out.
It’s a brand new day.

Rainy days are noisy days, so I do my quiet time with the Lord with coffee and Bible! ♥

I simply like to go out and dance in the rain. It may look and sound weird buy yes, I did it a couple of times with college friends and office friends before. It felt like we’re so free and we’re shooting a movie. like Step Up or a romantic movie. Fun times!

My favorite rainy day habit is I gather all my scary books like “50 Ghost Stories,” “Almanac of the Uncanny” published by Reader’s Digest or the “Encyclopedia of the Strange, Mystical and Unexplained.” I read it and sit myself near the window sill while I’m alone in my room; the rain is pattering with occasional bouts of thunder and lightning and outside I see darkness behind our neighbor’s trees. And beside me is my flashlight just in case all of a sudden in the middle of the story or climax the lights would suddenly go out. When I do this, I quickly absorb the stories and feel what it’s like if I’m one of the characters in the stories I read.

When it rains, I am opted to visit the banks of Marikina River. Equipped with rain coat, umbrella, rain boots, money, and courage, I regularly visit the Marikina River because of Ondoy. I am a survivor, proud rescuer, and witnessed the wrath of nature.
Now, I am assisting everyone and warns my fellow Marikeños to evacuate and higher level. Lending my strength, ability, even load to call their love ones, and courage to others to be strong. Because Filipino Spirit is not Just Waterproof but also, Happy!

My favorite Rainy Day Habit is to go to a resort/hotel because this is usually the time when there are less occupancies and rates are really lower. I got to enjoy quality bonding time with my hubby, while we just relax, chill and just hang out. We enjoy our stay to the max while it also costs us less than the usual.
