(no subject)
I just had an image of myself, 5-10 years in the future, staring out a large window / sliding door (presumably in my apartment) during a downpour, not looking at anything in particular. I found it really soothing - I love being inside when it's pouring rain, and sometimes I even enjoy being outside during storms, at least when it's not too cold outside. I'm hoping this summer is filled with rainy Saturdays where I can just watch DVDs with friends in my apartment, not having to worry about homework or other trivialities.
Exams aside, I've been feeling pretty melancholy recently - not in an uberdepressed sense, but more peaceful, with a touch of sadness. Talking about the Japanese internment camps in WW2 on MSN today with my British/Japanese/Korean friend Maz brought tears to my eyes. I find crying an intensely powerful experience - even though I do it too much, in my opinion, I'd rather have it that way than be the cold person I was five years ago.
