Than Thaane Thantha Thaane......

It was 6.30 am (give or take 5 or 10 minutes), 3rd September 2010, and i was watching a movie on my laptop; There's Something About Mary (how very queer of me). And lo and behold, it started raining. I didn't realise at first because I had my headphones on but i saw trees billowing outside my window and i pulled the gadget off my ears. Sure enough, it was pouring!!! I got up from my bed and headed for the window; the smell of nature and without warning, a gush of wind hit my face. I took in every bit of it. I opened my eyes and carved a wide naughty grin... WHY NOT??? I can't do this at home because parents would think i am mad... Here, on campus however, there's nothing stopping me...

I immediately took off the briefs i was in (i decided it was a warm night to sleep in shorts), put on the pair of shorts i used earlier for my evening jog and tip-toed out of my room being careful not to wake GJ Kind Boy up (if anyone of you are still wondering, i always sleep with at least a singlet or a tank top on). I walked hurriedly at first, excited but at the same time a tad worried if mother nature was teasing me (a chance like this was too good to be true). Then, the adrenaline rush worked my pace up to a small jog and I eventually broke into a run... I ran with flip-flops on my feet, right out of my dormitory building and straight into the lake garden situated right across the road next to it. There are trees, grass, a walk-way, some street lights, and animals (birds, monitor lizards, tortoises, and fish in the lake), all of which always made my jogging a lot more pleasant, if it was not already.

I spread my arms out and let the magic begin... Scores after scores of Tamil movie songs begun to constantly ring in my ear;
I twirled,
I shook my hips,
I skipped,
I hugged lamp posts,
I caressed trees,
I collected raindrops in my hands and threw it up in the air,
I jumped up and down countlessly,
I sat down on the grass,
I ran up and down like a lunatic,
I was enthralled, exhilarated, and I never felt so alive!!!

For a full 30 minutes (again, give or take 5 or 10 minutes), I was a child again, nothing in the world mattered...

You see these kind of things in movies and people saying that they love doing these kind of spontaneous stuff but really, I for once never have had such an experience...
It was like I was on my own movie;
I was the star,
I was the audience,
I was the drama,
Mother Nature witnessed it!!!
