The clocks just turned to 9am,
maybe some minutes past 9 by now. The wind is howling away and the gloomy
weather makes we want to climb back in bed and close my eyes. But, I’m in the
library. Yeah, I’m an early bird nowadays. It’s still ever so dark outside, and
the wind has probably reached 90mph. I battled the wind and made my way in. Its
called dedication, I need to be motivated to be dedicated. So I am armed with a
fruit salad and pomegranate and blueberry juice. The windows, so called “double
glazed” ones, are trembling as the wind hits them. To make matters worse I am
sat at a computer near the window. So it gives the impression of shattering any
second. Sirens are blaring as emergency services race to the rescue. The ring
roads are full of chaos. Umbrellas are unable to take the force thus people
would rather get wet. Yeah, it’s raining and its ever so windy. Too windy, rain
can be dealt with, in moderation though. There’s no way to get rid of the
wind. A cyclist fell off his cycle this
morning, he looked hurt. He didn’t actually fall but was blown off by the wind.
Just imagine the chaos….
I walk over a bridge and past
shrubs to reach uni, I usually bump into a squirrel or two in the uni gardens. Today
I didn’t see any :( I
wonder where they hide in such horrendous weather. They obviously have natural
habitats, but the wind is ever so overwhelming. Trees and bushes have fallen,
heck a cyclist fell. I try to get a glimpse of the view outside, but the landscape
has disappeared amongst the fog and mist.
I shall write a more colourful
post, sometime soon. I have some ideas lined up.
Cheerio till then :) x
