thunder shower

I finally took a shower in the monsoon rain. It's amazing that in a place so hot the rain can be so cool. I stepped out from under the covered walkway and let the big fat raindrops slap against my face and chest. Within seconds I was soaked, and I felt really cold for the first time since I got to Singapore. Taking a shower in your bathroom's okay, but there's nothing to get you feeling quite as clean as real, cold rain.
