Is it me or is it Singapore's sky? I've been observing the sky for the longest time, since last week. I observe everyday. On the bus, while walking home, or when I'm in the school library taking a break from doing my work. I realise that whether is it sunny, cloudy or rainy, the sky is always so beautiful. These few days in particular, the skies are purplish and sometimes yellowish, just before the sun sets. I tend to bring my G12 out more frequently these days because I thought it would be nice to capture the lovely colours up there. Of course, the clouds are always a plus point to the beauty. I'm not sure if it's the same in places out of Singapore, but I am sure it is. For technically speaking, we are all under the same sky, right? I just thought it's weird. It took me 21 years to realise that we've always been under such beautiful sky and we never learn to appreciate it. Mother Nature is really gorgeous. Have you noticed it? Maybe it's time.
This CNY, I realised many things. I realised I have always envied families who go out as a whole for CNY visiting, or those who invite many relatives and friends over. I realised I am very afraid of the coming of CNY because CNY simply means watching movies and slacking at home for me. I love to watch movies, there is no doubt about that. Perhaps I just don't appreciate the latter because there is so much to face head-on. I hate the silence or otherwise awful hurlings at the dining table. I hate how I need to pretend to be hospitable to people I dislike. This year, I hid in my room when people I did not feel comfortable with came, then I was accused of being stubborn and impolite. Sometimes I really wonder if being myself is of imperative or being polite is. Whichever the case, I want to confess that I really feel tired and unhappy this CNY. The worst is that I feel that no one can understand because everyone I tried to rant this to tells me I should go home because it is CNY after...
haha yea the sky looked exceptionally beautiful when there is a rainbow! :)
