   Hum...-wha?...is it dead?
Happy Mid-day to you all!
(That is if it IS midday where you are o_o)
Well, I got the thunderstorm I asked for last night. ^.^
Only it happened at 3 am this morning -.-'
Such is the luck of evil...
It was quite beautiful. I heard all of my favorite thunder strikes, rumbles and shockwaves.
I have always liked thunderstorms even when I was little. Most other children (like my older sister the screamer -.-') become completely terrified during them, but not myself. A faint memory comes into my mind of my father sitting in a chair next to the wide, sliding glass doors in the kitchen; his massive frame silhouetted by the lightening...
But I think I like storms the best beacuae I always dream better when it's storming outside- And when I say 'better' I mean more nightmarish and vivid! ^.^
Infact, I'm quite lucky that one of my hall-mates asked me to watch her futon.
As the storm began, I was having this intense dream where I was trying to fight off a re-occuring nightmare force that has plagued me since the age of 7. I'm not quite sure what it is- it is a living black mass of evil that has made almost every attempt to consume me. Last night- it was trying again. So picture if you will, myself, tossing and flipping about the bed struggling and clawing with basically nothing, then a loud lightening strike goes off. Jolted from sleep, my body instantly springs into the upright position, but my latest flop plus this momentum sends me tumbling off the edge of the bed just as my eyes pop open and before the blank look can reach my face. THUMP! - oof!
The next thing I know, I'm laying on my side on the futon my limbs flailed every-which-way.
Pulling the scattered pieces of my mind (and myself) back together, another rumble reaches my now attuned ears. I turn my head upwards to look out the half opened window and watch the lightning rivet the sky.
"Lightning.." I whisper with a child-like awe, completely forgetting for an instant the peril I was just in.
Then, my mind comes back to me and I start removing myself from the futon, piecing together how I got there.
I climbed back onto my bed and laid on my side staring out another window and watching the world brighten and then rush back into darkness, and waited for the thunderous sounds that followed.

My alarm goes off. I fall back to sleep..
MUST WAKE UP! my mind screams. I sit upright again, this time avoiding a fall to the futon adn realize that I have less than 30 minutes to make it to Math class!
O.O Oh crap!
Somehow I managed to maek it there with time to spare.
The world outside is vivacious and bright. Nature rejoices after a storm, it becomes cleansed and healed. The birds won't shuttup for anything! >.o The squirrels run around like they're on speed. Event the worms won't stay in the freakin ground. And there are plenty of puddles to play in ^.^
[[>.O My little sister won't stop IM-ing me so I can finish this!!]]

-.-' I wil have to finish this later.

Much Love,
