Not another typhoon

Though sometimes I secretly wish that more typhoons would hit Luzon (for the breaks in classes), I do not want to see another typhoon come too close, at least not until I finish raking the leaves scattered on the yard and driveway. Typhoon Santi came early Saturday morning and dumped most of the leaves off the trees and onto the yard. Leaves were everywhere: on the trees, the lawn, and the driveway, stuck to the windows, and inside garden boots that were left outside the whole night. One of the neighbors piped up, "Maybe we need another typhoon to blow all these leaves off our lawns."
Smart!
But a rake or walis tingting would do the trick. With an inexhaustible supply of manpower, the yard, driveway and the other gardens would be leave-free in a couple of days.
So please, not another typhoon.
