{Its that time of the year...}

The time I lock myself in the house all week.
I forget the fact that I have friends and a life outside of school.
I start to become literally attached to my computer.
My eyes are tired from reading.
My brain hurts.
I overload on caffeine...

YEP, Its Finals Week!

I have three finals tomorrow, and three on Friday.
After that, I promise I'll be back in the real world!

Did you ever see the movie The Red Balloon?






Its a magical story about a sweet little boy named Pascal, who is befriended by a good-natured, cherry-red helium balloon. It follows him to school, waits for him, and follows him home again.
France, 1956ish?
I must have watched it hundreds of times when I was little.
Just took me back a little bit. :)

I love the rain.
Its been raining all week
(well, when I say all week, I mean about ten minute downpours a few times each day... its Idaho)

Let the rain kiss you.
Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops.
Let the rain sing you a lullaby.
The rain makes still pools on the sidewalk.
The rain makes running pools in the gutter.
the rain plays a little sleep-song on our roof at night -
And I love the rain.
-Langston Hughes
