I was too far ahead. You were always ten steps behind me. I thought you were someone else.
If anytime this past school year I have used the word perfect it was a misnomer, because for the first time as a college freshman at Olivet I felt my truest self emerge. Today was lovely, and I was in Eden. The air was cool. The sky was grey. The earth was covered in lush emerald greens.
I felt romantic, and beautiful. I gathered a bouquet of flowers to give to some starry-eyed girl, or maybe my future husband. I wanted to make someone feel happy. Not many people were out, but I kept searching, feeling so happy and so sad. Suddenly the skies grew dark and thunder echoed in the distance. Raindrops fell slowly at first, but quickly gained intensity. As the sirens went off I walked slowly with my eyes glued to the sky. (I love storms!) I came inside upon the beckoning of some unknown voice within williams. I wandered around from window to window, and left shortly. But as soon as I came outside a man told me to find shelter because there was still a tornado warning out. So I went to Ludwig where I engaged in a theological discussion with Dave and Steven. After that I went to Kelley to read Joel, which is a very exciting book. Then I played piano and finally came back to my room to clean and listen to PoisontheWell. PTW=a perfect way to end this day.
