My world is whole again - the dorm has life once again.
Anyways, I've got alot t'say t'day, so I'm gonna give you "Mini-Subjects(R)"! Enjoy.


I'm Only Happy When It Rains
It rained today. ^_^
I like rain.

People often look at me weird when I say that, but really, I LOVE rainy days. I LIKE the way the sky looks. I mean, have you ever taken the time to look at the sky on a rainy day? Sure it's a cold grey color, but have you noticed the clouds themselves? I think it's so awsome watching clouds streak across the sky, almost faster than it seems they should go.

But that's not it. The light is different on a rainy day. It's a change of pace from "good" weather. Yes, the shades may be darker, but they're brighter, too. I mean, really, take a look at the world before you decide it's miserable. ^_^

But that's not it eaithet. Have you ever noticed how alive you can feel when you're being drenched in rain? Or how nice it is to get warm and dry again? Or just the spendor of watching a rainstorm on the front porch for hours?
That's not it either. It's indescribable.

I like rain. ^_^



It's A Wonderful Life
I love my life. I mean, I don't know why, it's not like I never complain, but I love my life. I mean, I donno - I didn't go home for Thanksgiving, but in a sense, I didn't ever leave, either. College is good. There are things I wish were different, and that kind of stuff, but even given that, I love my life.



"Coincidences"
If you've known me for long, you know that I always believe that things happen for a reason. i don't believe much in chance or fortune, or what have you. Mind you, I don't believe in fate, either, but that's beside the fact.

As testement to this, take Claire - me and her get along really well (REALLY well ^_^). and we've only known eachother for, what, a SINGLE month? Maybe not even. And besides that, but she is my friend's college roomate's friend from home, who we just happened to bump into at an Anime convention. Coincidence? I think not.

Then there's Tara. I met Tara at orientation cause she's from a sizable family herself, and so our mothers talked. As cool as I think she is, we never really talked much after that.
Anyways, I got a job about a month or so ago at the JP2 Center. A week ago, I was working on the 2nd floor art galery (which meant I was ticking by the hours reading my book. ^_^). Anyways, the girl comes up, and atomatically I tell her 'If you have any questions, I'm here' and so she goes off. Anyways, she comes back asking what this fresco thing is, and I explain to her that frescos are painted on walls, in plaster, and so they took it off the wall and basically skrewwed it over.
She laughed and said she didn't know much about art, and I said neither do I - I'm a CompSci Major at CUA. And she suddenly perks us and askes "Do you know Tara?" And I said, yeah, I think I do. And she tells me how she's a good friend of Tara's from back home, and has been TRYING to get in touch with her, but doesn't know how.
So she gives me a note to give to Tara, and old friend of hers whom I barely know. And all of this happened spontaneously at work. Coincidence? It gets better.
The next day I go looking for Tara. After class, I head over to Campus Ministries, where she works. Of course, she's not there, she works in the morning, not the evening. But I head around the corner, cause I gotta get money from the ATM. And, surprise surprise, I see Tara. So I tell her the story, and give her the note, and she tells me that this really means alot to her, and she really wanted to get back in touch with this girl.
Coincidence? I think not.



Food for thought.
Words to live by.

Good night, and Godspeed.
