It's pouring once again now. There was a moment of silence before this second wave of tears from the sky came. I still have mixed feelings regarding rain, especially when it falls in huge amounts. On one hand, I love how it washes away all the gross chemicals that fill the LA air, but on the other hand, it makes me unable to sit in the glorious warmth of the sun's rays. It would definitely be great if the sun could shine most of the time and the air could small wonderful most, if not all, of the time. But as pollution and overcrowding remain difficult issues, such a place probably doesn't exist anymore on earth.
Being inside listening to the pitter-pattering of the raindrops on the window calms my nerves. It's rhythmic pounding is actually soft, very much the opposite of the drilling and hammering that still went on yesterday in the morning. Apparently, the next door's bathroom is being fixed, and the workers I guess want to get it done as quickly as possible so they started at around 8:15am. But since it's pouring today, I don't think they came. Unless they finished! That would be great. Another positive point of rain is that the apartment complex next door probably won't be holding an outdoor party! Last night wasn't as horrible as some of the other parties they've had, but they were still being loud enough that I had to resort to listening to my ipod again to drown out the sounds of their shouting. Just so loud at midnight and for who knows how long.
But it's nothing now. I don't feel annoyed thinking about it anymore. It makes me think that the rain is not only washing down all the chemicals floating in the air, but also washing away all the extreme feelings inside myself. I don't feel sad, happy, annoyed, longing, etc... I just feel okay. Flat. That sort of feeling, if that's even clear.
