Raining until 6

No, I haven’t really been neglecting this blog. Days after my exams were free and relaxing (albeit quite dull and boring, as holidays could tend to be), but without much vibe to write anything decent I’ve been leaving it aside. There’re a couple of entries which I’ve prepared, but it’s not worth posting (all of them nonsense, like this one, only more nonsensical).

The rain had been very intense these few days, full of vibrant rage and immensity. This evening at 3 the sky turned dark, the most maleficent clouds I’ve never seen in a long time shrouds the supposed zenith sun in a swirl of dark menace. The rain lasted well into 6 p.m. or so, its dregs of soft drizzle and occasional rumble of thunder left in its wake. Multiple times the house was thrown into darkness, the power jumped as lightning tore across the sky (thanks to the increased sensitivity of our fuse), and my car alarm was constantly blaring as thunder pounded like a mad elephant with paranoia (stupid sensitive car alarm). Astro became incompetent to provide any service at all, leaving my dad in a cursing state for voiding us of our American Idol and Thomas Cup coverage. Thankfully we still managed to catch The Simpsons at 6. Laughter could lift the grimmest of gloom.

Amanda was having a debate today (I believe). I just realized I haven’t called. Ju Ee had asked if I would go and watch the debate. I didn’t, but suddenly I thought I should be. Then again, my presence there wouldn’t mean anything. It’s not like I’m someone significant anyways. Still, there’s a certain weight whenever I think of it.

Goodnight people.
