So here in Jeddah, KSA, rain is one of the very few things that gets us all worked up. That's right, the people who inhabit this huge, dry desert get happy over just a droplet of rain.Take what happened today for instance; we (students) were going through this day like every other until that moment we saw some clouds appear in the sky. And in less than an hour, it started raining. The school would later inform us that we are to leave early for some reason (obviously the rain). Although it may not seem like much, but to us here, it makes us feel like we are actually going through a change of season, even if it is just a sprinkle of water. And to some (many, actually) others, it means more vacation and early dismissal from school. At least we're all happy, right?
