it's the first day we have had rain in los angeles in months. i got caught in the rain waiting for my friend to get out of class. we wanted to ride our bikes back to our house, but my brakes don't work in the rain. i tried to ride but i almost took out a few pedestrians and had to slide my feet on the floor to stop, like a Flintstone. most people i saw were running to get out of the rain, but not me, i was soaking it in. the rain drops on my tights looked like sparkles, so lovely. my friend somehow pulled a muscle in her cheek, so she couldn't chew. we decided that the best remedy for that, and the rain, was some pho at Noodle Planet. i think it would be hard to find better pho outside of vietnam. tonight we are going to make an apple pie. i love days like this.
