**PLAYING IN THE RAIN...**...is so fun!
I forgot how it felt like to *frolic* in the rain, wrestle with friends, and sprawl out on the puddles until last night. It's been so many years since I've done all that.
I didn't think of getting wet in the storm (there were lightning and thunder) after the Student Music Recital. So, we were stranded in church.
Tibe-tibe je, Shimona ran into the rain with her arms spread out. I took off my shirt (
eh, I got singlet underneath, okay?) and joined her. Then, Abednego came with us. We
cacatwalk under the rain. So funny one.
Later on, Robert (a Theo student) and Aaron arrived with plastic bags. Like, we expected *umbrellas*. We sloshed water at them until it became a war of puddle water. Then, I wrestled Robert, WWF style. Being stronger than I am (but I bet I'm more flexible than he is), Robert managed to tackle me down and forced me into the *ankle deep* puddle.
Tibe-tibe je, he cried, "I now baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son, and of the Holy Ghost!" My undies were soaked through!
All the wrestling and splashing was fun, but tiring too. We're not as young as we used to be. Oh my. I just made it sound like we're so old already. I'm not even in the twenties yet :( So anyways, Aaron and I just sprawled out on the ground like it was our dorm room. It was so cool to feel the raindrops on my body. But got one thing
stupii la: the rain also went up my nose. That was so uncool.
It was (according to Vivian) rejuvenating. I felt so good after that. Well, emotionally at least, because I did come down with a lightheaded sensation. But I'm not sick today! Sort of. I'm just sneezing more than usual. I don't have the flu, though. More like there's something bothering my nose.
