ruI think we've got malicious rain falling on our humble uni. That's what I'm going to call it. It's not just normal, drippy rain, but it's rain that falls with a VENGEANCE.
It started raining today just as I walked out of my room. I had already locked up, and was late as is, so I didn't really have the time to go back and grab my umbrella and change my coat. But hey, no problem. A little rain won't kill me. So I get to class, a little drippy, but still, no problem. However, my glass lenses are pretty wet, so I whip out my shirt tail and go about drying the first lens.
Hm. Why is it the lens now looks extremely dirty?
From what it looks like, the act of cleaning my lens caused the coating on it, which has already begun to come off, to go into SUPER DRIVE and start coming off basically all over the lens. It now looks and feels like it's extremely dirty, and when I wear them, lights look like they have a green halo around them. I dunno if it was the fact that I used my shirt or that the lens was that close to going, or if it was the water, or what, but whatever it was, it makes me think it may be high time for me to get new lenses. In the meantime, I guess I'll be stuck wandering around as the secondhand superhero, Aura-Seeing Woman.
So after spending the class period squinting and trying to avoid paying attention to the pretty colors, we got back our herbarium projects (100! Yes!!!). I still don't know what I'm going to do with ten mounted plants. I thought about donating them, but the people in my class kept insisting that I keep them for some reason. Well, I have a bit of time before I need to decide, so I brought them home. If I want to donate them, I can just bring them back to class. It was sprinkling as I walked back, so I kept my head bowed and managed to get by without getting more water on my lenses. My project folder, on the other hand, wasn't quite so well-protected.
In my experience, when paper gets wet, it makes a water spot, might get wrinkly, and that's about it. The folder, however, was BLISTERING. By the time I got back it was covered in little blistery pin pricks that made the folder look like it had failed its TB test. It might have just been the paper it was made out of, but considering the incident with my lens, I'm more inclined that it was the rain continuing to cause as much mischief as possible. It makes me a little worried about what'll happen when I venture out to go to screenwriting in a little while.
Damn malicious rain.
