Let it Rain

It's almost summer. Oh pardon me, it is already summer. Graduations had been held and Summer break had finally officially begun. And lately I've been taking in liters and gallons of fluids to quench my thirst and parched throat. Have you ever had that feeling that you know you are thirsty but no matter how many glasses of water you had drunk you still feel thirsty and that you simply ended up feeling bloated as well?

It's pretty crazy. I normally feel that these past weeks. Might be because of the summer heat. I always feel parched.

But good thing we had rain showers for the past days. I remembered one time, I had written a journal when after such a long time, rain finally arrived. We can call that the first drops of summer rain for it to sound melodramatic. After all, rain tends to make one's mood sappy and melancholic and sad...

Anyway, it's nice to rain once in a while. I just hope there's no storm coming in. Hmmmm...this is so weird. I am talking about the weather.

Bad sign.

Oh, let the rain keep falling down cause it won't stop me from getting where I'm bound. Maybe I'm crazy. Maybe it's too late. But I'm gonna make it. Don't care what the skies say. So oh, let it rain. Let it rain. Let it rain

we can pray for sunny weather but that won't stop the rain.

Sometimes I wonder what's with rain and sad moments. Most of the melodramatic scenes we've seen in movies involve rain. I remembered a friend telling me that it's a certain hormone in our body that is usually triggered by the coldness brought about by rain that is responsible for us getting sappy during rainy days. I really don't care about those hormones. I have only one explanation why people tend to be sappy during these times. We could somehow identify with rain. Rain is like our tear-drops. As if, it's heaven who's doing the crying for us. Alright, I know that too sounds sappy.

It's suppose to be summer here in the Philippines but I guess there's some storm hitting the country. It's raining really really hard outside and I like it that way. It will not only trigger my sappy side, it will also give me a good night sleep which I've deprived my self these past few days. I'm hoping to make up for those sleepless nights tonight. The only problem would most likely be the moment I go home and it's raining. I hate bringing umbrellas and naturally I did not bring one today. But with a weather such as this, it seems like change is a must. As the song Please don't stop the rain by James Morrison goes, "And if it' s going to be a rainy day there' s nothing we can do to make it change. We can pray for sunny weather But that won't stop the rain. You're feeling like you've got no place to run. I can be your shelter til it's done. We can make this last forever. So please don't stop the rain. Let it fall. Let it fall. Let it fall. Please don't stop the rain."

I've always dreamed that one day I too would get to have that moment when some guy will make some way for me not to get wet because of the pouring rain. Of course there's the obvious way of him bringing/holding an umbrella for me or that sweet moment when he would take off his jacket and place it over my head or even that stupid but lovely gesture of placing his hands in my head as if his hands could stop the rain from soaking me. Those scenes really makes me dreamy.

Snap back to reality. I hope it'll rain the whole night (minus the black-out) so I could sleep well tonight.

I badly need sleep.
