Rain and Water Saving Tips

It rained the other day. I woke up and heard the soft pitter patter of raindrops in our gutter. I didn't know if my brain was teasing me because the rain hasn't graced California's thirsty ground in an awfully long time. But, as I pulled up my blinds, the marvelous sight of wetness was there. I was jubilated and so excited. The rain really gave me a wake up call that our water is sacred and scare and we must treat it that way.
 It is environmental week at my school (wear blue and green on Wednesday!) and so in honor of that and the rain that came to say hi, I compiled a list of ways to save water!

Ways to save water:
1. Take shorter showers


 2. Eat less animal products It takes more than 2,400 gallons of water to produce 1 pound of meat, while growing 1 pound of wheat only requires 25 gallons. You save more water by not eating a pound of meat than you do by not showering for six months!

 3. Turn off the ater when you brush your teeth


 4. Spread the word about the drought! Even if you are not in a drought you can still save water! (Please do!!!)

 5. Wear green braids (just kidding)

6. Be  conscious of your water usage!

Nine months later I emerge with the hopes of being vaccinated soon. FUcking hell. What a trip. This pandemic is going to require a lot of processing in the future but for now, I want to share and record some things I am very proud that I accomplished over this period of time. I was able to help start and run a campaign to eventually get my high school drama teacher who spread the rumor that I called the cops at a cast party which ruined my social life at that school while stalking me and my friends and constantly trying to get me in compromising and damn disgusting and gross situations. His charm to his superiors and the gaslighting and abuse of students has been heavily weighing on me in a way I have yet to fully deal with. I spoke out in high school and was silenced, threatened, and made to feel unwelcome. Yet the internet and living in a whole separate continent does wonders for confidence. I helped create a petition, gathered testimonies, and launched this campaign with my friends

Rainy Night Writing

There is something quite different about writing when it is raining outside than when it isn't. I despise my frozen toes and fingers, yet I love drinking chocolate almond milk with banana bread. It seems almost enchanting, like creativity is plopping on your rooftop. Writing in the rain, so odd. Writing in the rain It is like laughing during a thunder cloud, in perfect harmony with nature, rhyming and paralleling the weather, writing in the rain, creativity pours from you, as you hear the pitter patter, you wonder where the drops will all go, writing in the rain, a clean slate to begin again, a downpour of ideas, soon to come again, I love writing in the rain.
