"sweet, refreshing rain!"// late night ramble edition two

Whoever can guess what movie that quote in the title is from wins...a virtual high five! :)

"Well...I'm back." (guessed the movie? you get a high five too). No, I haven't fallen off of the face of the planet. I'm still here, alive and breathing after taking an unannounced break to finish school. 

I had to finish science, history, and economics, as well as write a report on the right to bear arms...gun laws and gun control etc.

It was good to delve into the subject of government and legislation and write out my thoughts on the subject of bearing arms. I actually began to enjoy researching and watching debates. I'm glad to be finished now though. The  realization that I've nearly graduated from high school (I say nearly because my paper still needs to be read and graded) hasn't really hit me yet. But, I'm excited. Yes. I'm excited to end one season of my life and begin a new one. I plan on further studying subjects of interest at home and also focusing on getting my driver's license this month!





one report writing night... :)

Today was a good day.

The weather started out dreary and dark with the cloud cover. It was strange because it was dreary, yet warm out. I spent the day writing letters. hurray for pen-pals and snail mail! I read a bit as well. Ishmael and Self Raised are SO interesting. Self Raised is keeping me on my toes. Read about them here and here. I'm loving getting back to reading again.

This evening, it began to pour rain! It was gorgeous outside I ran in the rain with my sister, Emma who is always ready to do those kinds of things with me. She wanted me to pretend I was Colonel Brandon and she was going to be Marianne. Oh that dramatic scene with Colonel Brandon yelling "Marianne!" over and over again. No, we didn't do that. I thought it would be just too strange. So we ran and laughed in the rain instead. Good plan. :)





When the rain stopped, it left the such a glorious sky behind.

Ah. I was in love. So beautiful, so peaceful.

Such a perfect way to end the day.



I'm glad to be blogging again. It makes me happy.

How was your summer? Comment and tell me a favorite memory, perhaps?

Blessings!
