Yesterday's Downpour

So yesterday we had our inaugural dinner club at the Vaudeville Theatre in town. I shall reserve my review of said place in another post, just wanted to actually comment on the rain that came pouring yesterday evening. It's steadily grown colder in the last few weeks, which is normal considering it's winter time now. But i think yesterday's downpour, following a very dismal day was the first winter downpour we've had in weeks.What could I say but that it brought back memories of chilhood back. I used to love our monsoon rains when it would hit us in the months of October and Feb ( or is it April? I'm not sure, I sucked at geography as a student). Our house have been flooded a few times while I was growing up, the heaven would literally be crying nonstop for days, pausing to collect itself for only a few minutes before starting again. I remembered clearly how I had to play rescue ranger and help my mom transfer the rabbits from the pen onto higher ground - into the guinea fowl  pen ( noah's ark...heheh)
Anyway, woke up this morning and yesterday's downpour inspired me to haiku my thoughts down. As the wisests of wise keep on telling us: practice makes perfect. And so practise I will.


Winter Downpour

Evening downpour
City roads become rivers
I run across the street

Drum, clack, hiss
Sings the ground where rain kisses it
Beautiful music

I stand in silence
listening to the sound of
the rain; mesmerised.

Seriously ..I heart this artist

my sister has a fascination for Japanese men. I suppose we all have our fetishes, we can all dream. But seriously..

Jackson Rathbone is soo f-ing OMG OMG hyperventilate material. This, coming from a 30 ish woman. I know.. sounds so sad but there are just some really beautiful people on earth that you just can't help but talk about. And he's definitely one of them. And for this reason, I am willing to make a fool of myself online..
if you don't know him yet - well you are either very square or very old. Which is it? Haven't you seen Twilight yet???!
( and many moons later i.e now when I finally revisit my site...what about New Moon? Okay wait for Eclipse - which is coming out in July of this year and apparently his hair looks even worst there!)

I try not to be a fangirl like my sister, but he is an exception. Why? Because he's beautiful (seriously, his hair ( not the fugly blond wig he wears in the movies that made him a household name but his real hair..)  is half of that beauty... who can wear a fauxhawk and still look absolutely gorgeous? Apparently he can..and boy he does look good wearing it. Choosing not to post a picture here but google it and see for you yourself.

But above and beyond my immature fangirl fawning - you gotta give credit where credit deserves.... he sounds like a seriously talented artist ( acting, music, written word...) and he likes Haiku. ( this last one just does a number to me... haiku? No ways...)

And that sexy allegory/ simile ( what ever you call it) word play with Tequila - Whiskey - Lust - Love on Glamour. Damn...wet my panties sexy hot as F#$@ answer.....
Haiku is just by the way a Japanese of poetry writing. I love it because it's all about capturing the essence of the moment, and second - it's Japanese.
