A place to share your voices with janis so she can write them into a new play. What does Canadian rain smell like? Stars, apparently.

just singing in the rain..

so last summer i was at churchill with my best friend and nathan..
(remember? it was during the street festival.)
anywhoo. i was in a wierd mood because of a boy. and then i saw said boy and yes, my mood went downhill.
so we were sitting there watching a street performer and then it started raining.
and nathan, being the pussy he is.(<3).. wanted to run for cover so as not to get wet.
but i was all in a crappy mood, so the rain was like a godsend.
and so i knew i just needed to just be in the rain and get soaked.
so me and jessicah (the best friend) started dancing in the rain and being complete fools.
and then, since it was like our anthem for when we felt something that summer we started singing i feel so by box car racer.
but really it was more like screaming it.
it was something like this.
i feel so MAAAAAAD.
i feel so AAAANGRYYYYY.
i feel so CHEEEAAAP.
so LOOOST
CONFUUUSED again.
and yea.
we were belting our lungs out.
and just running around in circles and splashing in puddles and stuff.
(with nathan standing there pretending he didnt know us).
but it was awesome.
and the rain only lasted like 5 minutes.
and it was exactly what i needed.
it made my day.
and it put me in a relatively better mood for the rest of it.
so try it.
next time your pissed off, or feeling like shit, or really happy.
next time you feel a strong emotion.
or just an emotion of any kind.
just belt out your favorite song while dancing in the rain.
it does wonders.
and hey, it might even be good for the skin too.
