I don't exactly know where you are. I live in Suwon, South Korea currently. It is almost 5 pm and Friday.
Upon waking up, I realized that it was murkier than usual outside. Then, I recalled that it was supposed to rain this weekend. And yes, it was drizzling and I very much like the sound of the raindrops hitting upon the ac fan and trickle down the ground at 8 in the morning. I just hoped to keep myself under the blanket the whole day, but I had to come to work, of course.
It is a gloomy Friday and I can't like it anymore than I do right now. At this moment, there are no important concerns of mine and thus my mind is quite peaceful. My work is fine, my personal life is fine.. On a day like this, that is, serene, peaceful, gloomy, I would like to stay home and watch movies with my lights off. Being under the blanket and relishing my favorite chips would be so ideal and perfect.
When I was in college, I used to love rainy Saturday mornings. This is so because on Saturday mornings there are not usually many students running around on campus. In particular, if it rained, it is nearly impossible to see people on campus at even 9 in the morning. Being a diligent and studious student, I'd still wake up at 8am on any Saturday morning and head down to the library. And on the whole way over, you don't come across anyone, but just wind, sun, sometime rain and snow. It was so peaceful. What's more, once you get to the library, it is almost like you are in a deserted cave. No student would come to the library that early on a Saturday morning. And walking up to the fourth floor and approaching my favorite spot, still you don't come across anyone. Sitting down on a chair, looking out the window, you feel like you own the world.. not in a very possessive way.. but in a hmm very lonely and yet heart-full way.
I hope it rains tomorrow when I wake up. I would love to feel the feelings that I did when I was in college... Days like this, a little bit of solitude soothes and comforts you.
