rain rain go away.

Ever since I was a little girl, I have hated [only] a few sounds.. 


Those sounds would be: running water, the toilet flushing, the water from the shower hitting the tub, and of course the sound of rain hitting the roof! 


Notice it is all water-related? It is because the first time I heard with my cochlear implant outside of the testing room at NYU's cochlear implant center [it was located back in 1995  at the Bellevue Hospital] when I was 5... It was at the bathroom as I needed to go. went to the bathroom. I had to go to the bathroom and my mom made sure I washed my hands. I have hated those sounds ever since! Even today, when I go to the bathroom, I make sure I turn off my implant. It's weird I know, but it is the only way I can cope .. If I don't turn it on, the sound itself is practically unbearable. 


As for the sound of rain, it's just annoying to hear drip, drip, drip.. clack, clack, clack [my interpretation of how rain sounds to me]. I just try to avoid hearing it much as possible, and it makes sense why my implant tends to be off during rainy days haha. I know I should embrace the sound of rain, but I don't think that'll ever happen, unless of course, i happen to be driving, being with other hearing people or whatever.. it'll be on.


On another note, waking up at 6:30am, has been EPIC FAIL. I don't know how i'm going to wake up next week.. Let's just hope I can do it!! aaah.

I HATE THE RAIN!

I AM A HATER OF THE RAIN!


The rain has done so much harm to my parent's basement over the years since we're in [kinda] a flood zone due to the way we're on the bottom of a [so-called] mountain! 


I just wonder why I drove to NH last night to see my dad up at the beach.. when he has to head home now? 


He just got a phone call from my mom saying she was up half of the night trying to clean the basement! It flooded again... for the first time in awhile... DUE TO RAIN! 


He has to go home to help mom clean and dry the basement.



My parents just had kinda fixed everything up! They put down a new ceiling, a new carpet, and most likely fixed the drain.. all to no avail! Now the carpet is going to REEK of a bad odor [whatever that rain smell causes it to smell]. 


I really had hoped it would never flood again!


The area I live in is officially a flood zone apparently, even though we live on the bottom of Avon or whatever Mountain!


This just sucks, and on top of that, I think I'm getting really bad cramps.. I have a three hour drive ahead of me to CT which just SUCKS!


ta-ta for now.

It's Thursday, and still raining!

" Rain Rain Go Away, Bring OUT the SUN and come back another day when it's needed!" 


I just want a nice, non-cloudy, sorta sunny day instead of another day of blahies & rain. 


Since I havent had work in like a week, I'm driving up to New Hampshire for the night to see dad up at the beach & do something for once... like eat clams?! yummy.. 


I'll be back tomorrow for another non-productive day in WeHa :/ 


Enjoy the rain haha. Blah.


seeeya.

Just a rainy day here in CT

Hi all! It is just blah outside today. Third day of the weather being like this. What have I done today? Hmm.. I obviously have not been very productive today as I have been supposedly napping and a few games of solitaire knocked me out!  



So much boredom, oh did I mention that I had to take a TB test? It's required for Camp Isola Bella for some reason (probably because of the children in presence of me).


[UPDATE to the last post]: 
I have to mention that the MAPpings so far has been alright, but I suppose it'll.... take time to adjust to? I don't like this... the whole adjusting thing. 

[UPDATE to the first post: jobs]
I finally decided to definitely work at Camp Isola Bella, because it's more productive that what I did today (obviously) and it'll give me something to do (other than making moolah, haha). 


This Ice Cream Parlor job is also quite unreliable- meaning they tend to cancel work due to the rain. The reason for this is because it's adjunct to a mini golf course, and customers won't want to come in and get ice cream due to the weather. A few might, but the owners won't keep me on shift alone because 1) i'm new 2) i wouldn't know what to do 3) i cant hear the damn telephone 4) ...


First Night: Sunday night [31 May], 
canceled Friday [5 June] due to rain, 
Second Night: Saturday night [6 June] from seven  to close, 
I canceled Monday for NYU [8 June]
canceled Tuesday [9 June] due to rain!!



I wonder what Sunday [14 June] will bring me :) hopefully not rain, but rather moneyy.



Hmm.. I don't know what to say, but I think I'm going to go workout at Big Sky despite the weather.

Toodles!

Peace & <3>
