Rain, Rain

So it’s been raining almost every day for the past two weeks here in Guelph. After looking at the forecast for the next few days I realized that there will still be a lot of rain in the upcoming week.

What is it with Guelph and rainy autumn weather? I assume it’s going to be spring that’s wet and rainy, but fall always seems to catch me off guard when I don’t have a raincoat or an umbrella. Thankfully, I’m armed right now with all my springtime rain gear… it just seems that I’m missing out on all the wonderful colors of fall when the leaves are so wet, brown and soggy. Whatever happened to colorful and crisp?

For those of you who are feeling like me right now, here’s a gorgeous and inspirational video on the rain. Watching this makes me feel much more optimistic… a new perspective can make dreary and rainy weather a lot more bearable.

Speaking of rain – me and the boys had our grad photos taken this Wednesday! We booked this date a month in advanced, and of course is had to be raining throughout the day. What’s worse is that some of these photos are taken outside. With the scenery and the trees the professional grad photos usually look gorgeous…but I didn’t realize we’d be taking them in the rain! Surely enough, we went out for the photoshoot armed with umbrellas. I’m hoping my hair didn’t frizz up into a mess with all the water and wind.

We took an adorable picture before we went to the professionals though:

 
 
Here are all five of us in the University Center, looking all fancy for our expensive photoshoot. Don’t we look so cute and charming? I love it when guys get dressed up and wear ties. 
 
The current plan is that this cellphone picture is going on the mantelpiece if my hair turns out to look like a shag carpet in all the grad photos. Actually… I love this picture so much I might just print it and stick it on my wall regardless.

  1. Hiya! Quick question that’s totally off topic. Do you know how to
    make your site mobile friendly? My site looks weird when viewing from my iphone4.
    I’m trying to find a theme or plugin that
    might be able to resolve this problem. If you have any recommendations,
    please share. Thanks!

  2. Very nice post. I just stumbled upon your weblog and wished to
    say that I’ve really enjoyed browsing your weblog posts.
    After all I will be subscribing in your
    rss feed and I’m hoping you write again soon!

  3. Can I simply just say what a comfort to find somebody that actually knows what they are talking about over
    the internet. You definitely know how to bring a problem to light and make
    it important. More people have to check this out and understand this side of your story.
    I can’t believe you’re not more popular given that you most certainly have the gift.

  4. Very good blog! Do you have any recommendations for
    aspiring writers? I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.

    Would you recommend starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there
    that I’m totally overwhelmed .. Any recommendations?
    Bless you!

  5. Hmm it looks like your blog ate my first comment (it
    was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.

    I as well am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to the whole thing.
    Do you have any tips for novice blog writers?
    I’d certainly appreciate it.
