we'll stay 18 forever.

just changed my layout. didn't know how to do that earlier.

sometimes i think that people forget how beautiful rain can really be. woke up at 5:30 this morning, and it was still dark, so i couldn't witness the beauty in its entirety just yet.
then i went to school and they shuffled us outside for band but it was raining. we sat there under the pavillion and i was just dazzled by the awesomeness of the rainclouds and thunder. it was just so overpowering. i was laughing with my friends, but my eyes kept drifting back outside. i felt the strongest urge to just drop my clarinet and run out into the rain and dance and play and sing, just like when i was a kid. the smells of the damp pavement, the cool moisture of each drop, the thickened air, everything just seemed to come rushing up to me at once. i was just itching to soak myself.
we finally were told to go back inside, and my heart sank. if i could just have that moment forever, those few minutes when nothing else seemed to matter and i could just stare out into the lightening, i could probably achieve eternal happiness.

i think i should start bringing either my SLR or my camcorder out on the weekends with my friends. i need to document these days.
they just seem too good to pass up.
