The Little (Wet) Things

I've been working more or less nonstop since my return from break, and it was nice to have a release last night ... in the form of going insane in the rain with my main friends. (Yes, the "main" was only added for a 3rd rhyme). I was reading Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, when, appropriately, lightning illuminated the sky. One of my friends went outside to wait for the rain to hit our dorm, so when it actually started pouring I went to go check on her. It had been about a minute of rain, but she was already soaked at this point. I ran up to bring some friends down to watch, and it soon turned out that we were all outside dancing and having fun in the rain. It was a nice physical cleansing, of sorts, and a good emotion release. It was a break away from any usual relaxing activity, and one that involved nature.

We were outside for about 40 minutes. In that time I felt relaxed again, more sane - ironic though it may seem - and at peace.

I hope you can all find some wonderful (wet) things to relax with along with your friends as the semester progresses,
