rained in
rain, rain go away…
have i mentioned that i don’t like rain? i used to love it back in college, the steady pitter patter of raindrops on the evergreen foliage made everything seem to come alive on campus. it would rain nearly every single afternoon in UPLB, and the writer in me reveled in the portents of gloom and doom that those downpours would bring. although i must admit that after some time i resented having to mop up the mud that i would bring in all over my dorm room floor.
it’s raining today, and i’m not in UPLB. instead, i’m at home, bored to death. for someone who hasn’t driven a car in nearly 2 years, i’m not about to go out in a storm like this one. self-amusement is today’s main preoccupation, and i can only play so much chicken invaders before going nuts.
being stranded in one’s own home may not seem so bad, but a person like me, who has not satyed at home since college gets stir-crazy after some time. i guess i don’t like it when the weather reflects what’s going on inside my head: this crazy, all consuming, quarter-life crisis that i seem to be wallowing in for the past few weeks is threatening to reach a breaking point.
i sure hope the sun comes out tomorrow, if not soon…
