Yes, I know I’m obsessed with the rain and I write about it
wayyyy too much. And it’s another one of my
I-just-WANT-to-write-a-blog-post-so-I-will moods. But please, I HAVE to talk
about it again. Pwetty pwease! It was just too epic. Okay one of the overly
used terms here. Epic! Amongst others. But I digress.
So, six of us were sitting at one of my favourite parts in
my college campus. It is a projection which overlooks the valleys and the hills
in the distance. It makes me feel really light and springy, and it’s ironically
called ‘The suicide point’. Well, because one slip, and you might just fall.
But even then, the maximum damage that you can do is break your bones, or
worse, your phone. Anyhoo, the sky was considerably clear and the air was
pretty calm. And then, they emerged.
Ze clouds. They approached from one side of the sky like huge,
sinister dementors, gliding ominously in the sky. They looked like brobdingnagian
monsters, and gigantic dragons covering the sky as we screamed “Oh my GOD this
is SO epic duuuuude!” And then. It got better. There was a storm; there was the
most terrifyingly loud thunder and the most powerful lightning I have ever
seen. One half of the sky was completely dark and curtained by the black
clouds, while one side was still bright. It was like nothing I’ve ever
witnessed. It looked like aliens were taking over the sky, (Independence Day style) or better, it seemed like it was going to
be the end of the world. It gave me chills. It felt unreal. I couldn’t believe
anything like that was even possible.
The next instant, I felt a thick drop on me.
IT.HAD.STARTED.TO.RAIN. That moment I knew I was not going to run under
shelter. As my friends ran to stand under the shade, I just stood up and looked
at the view. It was like the rain was saying, “Fine, get out of my way, but let
me happen.” Another friend and I, stood there, arms outstretched, soaking the
water in, feeling the drops on our faces, and for the first time in days, I
felt utterly, and blissfully happy. (Zomg I’m happy just thinking about how
happy I was)
The teeth clattering, the sneezes, the shivers, the unmanageable
hair, were all worth it. The lightning and thunder
continued, and after I was all dried up after a hot water shower, I just sat in
the balcony and listed to it. After dinner it rained again, like cats and dogs
and dinosaurs and almost flooded the area outside the Coffee shop. We sat
there, felt the spray on our faces and had hot chocolate. I felt so relaxed,
so, so, so EPIC :D
Sometimes you know what I feel? I feel that I don’t mind
going into mind-numbingly, suicidal phases of mind, if the opposite of it means
this carefree abandon, and joy. And this reminds me of
Calviiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin!
Okay you know what? I have a three hour long 80 mark Photography
exam tomorrow. Gulp, yes, I know. But I’m too happy to study :D It seems so trivial :P
I'm just so ecstatic right now and I have no idea why :D
I love long walks, and long talks, and discussions over hot cups of tea, and chocolates and random texts and everything everything EVERYTHING. I love the things I don't love because they make me realize how much I love the things I love. I need to bite someone.
Oh my god I need to get myself tested :D
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! :D
