I was waiting for the bus when... all of a sudden... it began to rain heavily. It was like... a really crazy rainstorm! I thought I had an umbrella in my schoolbag, so I kept trying to look for it. I was so busy looking for the umbrella that I didn't see a car coming. And it got water all over me! I was waiting like that... completely wet... for maybe almost an hour. Finally, the bus came and brought me home. I took a hot shower and ate some warm food. It felt so good to be home!
