that's not going to accomplish anything - the rain won't stop just because you throw a tantrum. *the rain doesn't care.* so make the best of the situation. what i do in such situation is go for a quick walk in the park (because rain has its own awesomeness),or just lie in bed reading a good terry pratchett book, listening to the rain beating on my window。
没什么可抱怨的,雨不会因为你抱怨而停止,老天才不在乎。这种情况下我会到公园里散步(因为雨也很有魅力),或者躺在床上一边读terry pratchett的书,一边听着雨水打在窗户上的声音。
make the most of what you do control, and don't worry about what you don't。
将你能掌控的事情做到最好,但也不用太在意不能左右的事情。
