think about it, im sure u have compared ur life now to the life u used to live. maybe sec sch? maybe pri sch? kindergarten, im sure, for some of you. now.. lets do a comparison on mine. this is gonna be interesting if u wanna know abt me. (:
life now is.. well.. to me its just something i go thru temporarily until the rapture.. then my life ends and i get a new body, and i go to heaven (: now in my life, i go to school at 7.15 every morning, reach at 7.30. i fall asleep in almost every lesson although i do my best to stay awake in all of them; but to no avail.
now, i consider myself pretty distant from my family.. most of my time is spent in my room, or outside with friends. i guess for everything, there's a price to pay. now, i find myself more complex, where i can think about issues without compromising on many other views. with age, comes wisdom. do u agree? can a child be as wise as an old man?
that was a sidetrack. now back to the comparison. now i find myself sleeping so late i can hardly believe it.. time just flies like tomorrow is always coming in 5 minutes. at the table with my grandpa, i find myself at a loss for words.. i used to be so close with my grandparents when i was young.. now they never have time for anything else anymore, thats fine.. they need to enjoy their lives (:
now, i love rain. i love the rain for a reason i will elaborate further later.. i just hate lightning..
well, what happened to my life?? lets compare it with life before this.
Life during sec school.. i can still remember being quite close to my grandparents.. waking up at 6.40 every morning to reach school at 7.. i bathe and get ready very quickly. (: i remember tms av crew. such a big part of my life. oh well (: times pass.. i'd mix with my great buddies.. back then there were many more guys.. oh well, yups anyway, usually i'd be slacking.. could never find the courage/strength to fall asleep in class.. was always awake, paying all the necessary attention.. oh well. times change.
and i used to love the rain.
life in primary school.. i wasnt used to the waking up early, so i would sleep on.. until my mum dragged me out of bed literally. back then i lived in tampines.. i slept in my parent's room.. so their room had this toilet. bathtub, but it got removed later on.. but i used to fall asleep in the bathtub while bathing half way.. after it was removed, i learnt the skill of falling asleep while standing up.
i would sleep while having breakfast, forcing my maid (she's been with me since i was 4 months old. we're really close. i cant bear to call her a maid.. but how? domestic helper?) to feed me mouth by mouth.. and in pri 1 i would cry everyday in school. cry non stop. i hated school because of the chinese teacher. we used to have chinese everyday- i still rmb.. she threw one book of mine out of the door, and the other out of the window and made me pick them up..
anyway, i loved the rain in primary school. i would play in it (: it was cosy..
kindergarten.. its surprising how i can remember details so far back, but i cant even remember the simplest things now.. i wasnt used to the early waking up either.. and for some reason i HATED school. i would get so afraid of it till i had fevers, had stomach aches, all sorts of nonsense.. i would vomit every morning in fear of going to school.. when i reached i would MAKE my grandpa stand outside the door until my class ends.. that's why im so close to him.. we would do EVERYTHING together.. but now.. sigh.
and u guessed it. i loved the rain..
life before this? i only remember this thing i used to sit in.. i lived at frankel avenue then- siglap plain.. but the only memory i have is that thing i used to sit in all the time. there were 3 balls on the table attached to the thing i sat in. i could move around in this thing.. and it was like my permanent residence. i still have a picture of it somewhere.. when i find it i'll show u guys or something..
im not sure, i cant remember, but im sure i loved the rain.
As i blog this, its raining right now. heavily. guess what? i love the rain. i love it tremendously. even though i was caughtin it, it was fun. and i literally played in the rain until lightning started striking, and the thunder came almost immediately after that.. it was so simultaneous and loud; the thunder.. and i remember hearing this loud loud loud burst. very high frequency one. high pitched. not a low rumbling thunder. but a high sharp piercing thunder. it was scary..
but i still love playing in the rain. i would have played just now.. despite the fact that i may fall sick.. i remember i used to get home extra early on rainy days, just to change into home clothes so that i may run out onto the landing outside my room just to play in the rain, stand there.. i brought my classical guitar out once just to play in the rain to see how it felt.. and i regretted it.. my guitar rotted- u can see its condition now..
but i love the rain. i just love it. the feeling of coming in drenched.. and taking a shower immediately. the feeling is just so liberating.. the cold rain and the cold shower.. just so refreshing.. and the cold gush of wind everytime i stand outside when its raining. i just love it. i love rain. so much.
i love rain. do not be deceived by my title. this post is just all about my love for the rain. i simply adore the rain. its sad to know that rain can kill people.. floods.. but its great to know that rain brings to us more life than death. without rain, no plants. no plants, no food for us/animals. no food for animals, no animals. no animals, no us. rain gives us all life. and more life than that of destruction. i just simply love the rain.
rain down, all around the world we're singing.
rain down, can u hear the earth is singing.
rain down, my heart is dry but still im singing.
rain down, rain it down on me.
