the story of the mikao's world raindrops
(and other misadventures)


once upon a time in a far off land called saskatchewan, a girl called michelle, who was a fair yound maiden, started a blog. and she wanted and tried to make her blog cool. so, she set about restructuring a template, adding personal touches, and changing the colours. but, even after all of that, she still felt something was missing. her template design wasn't quite perfect. it wasn't quite enough.

somehow, the hero of our story stumbled upon falling snowflakes on another website, and found the html at dynamic drive to do it. so, waiting ever so patiently for the first snowfall, she kept the link. then, when the first snowfall came, she set about installing the html into her template to celebrate. but, not being too particularily technically adept, she couldn't figure out how to change the html script to be snow instead of rain.

but, the fair young maiden decided, the rain didn't look all too bad after all. in fact, it matched her accidental template colours quite well. in fact, she realized, that pretty much the whole look of mikao's world was serendipitious, a fortunate accident.

our hero has thought often about maybe changing her template, but as of yet, she still hasn't. she's thinking that a major life change would be needed in order to warrant a template change. but for now, her life is pretty steady. she's been doing the same thing since her blog first began. but we can be sure that there will be major life changes in store for our fair young maiden. just not quite yet. so, hence, the rain continues to fall.

and so, that is how the rain in mikao's world came to be. in fact, it has never stopped raining here. but our fair young maiden has always like the rain (minus the puddles... fortunately the rain in mikao's world never puddles, it's the best kind of rain).
