It drizzled today. In the early morning on the walk to school.

Not the heavy, fat type of drizzle.

But the delightful one. Like soft, slow spray coming from the heavens. Almost like morning mist falling. The type that doesn't leave your clothes wet or glasses smudged. But the type that you can brush off the tiny beads of water from your jacket with your fingers, and would love to take off your glasses and feel the fine spray on your naked sleepy face.

It seems like the little droplets of mist-like spray are so small and light, that they float slowly downwards instead of drop. So magical! To have these droplets floating down towards you!

On the topic of water, I shall say how impressed and amazed by the sprinkler system in US.

Before the school was built, a sprinkler system was set beneath the grounds, and every once a week or so at night, these little black tubes shoot up from the earth and spray jets of water to wet the turfs (turfs, not grass! Planted piece by piece! No wonder they are so nice to sit on!) around school.

It's even fun, having to time your movement so as to avoid their rotating sprays. Or to feel the mist of the spray that escaped from the main jet on you.

So much so that being the occasional childish me, I even stayed in the library late on Thursday nights because I know it is the day when the jets in Aldrich Park (the park I cross to go back from the library back to my apartment) will be functioning. And I just loved walking amongst the sprays of water, seeing how the droplets of water on the blades of grass makes them glimmering white under the lamps in the park.

Come on, I know some of you will even want to be playing in the sprays! =p Don't make me name =)
