rain, rain go away

the rain's just been pouring hard all day and somehow, my mood just gave in to the cold breeze.

i was in indonesia with cha, rems and janeth for the weekend. yesterday's weather was great for a beach weekend getaway. the sky's just bright and blue, and we did enjoy some pictorials by the beach, some swimming at the resort's pool, and an outdoor, fancy dinner. life's little luxuries ;)

then sunday came and everything was just dark outside. we were scheduled to leave for singapore, by ferry, so i was worried how the ferry ride might go. but that was not all. that morning after breakfast, we were set to enjoy a ride with a buggy to tour around the resort's vast golf course. however, the overcast spoiled our plans. twas just too cold to go out in the rain. so instead, we just sat down at the hotel lobby and waited for our bus to take us to the ferry terminal. what a more exciting alternative :(

as soon as we got to singapore on a safe ferry ride, the weather hasn't changed. twas pouring as hard as it was in Bintan island. this just shows how near singapore is to that island of indonesia. nweys, our struggle didn't end at the ferry terminal. we had to wait a pretty long time to get a taxi. well, we have to wait at the taxi queue (as that's how things always are in singapore). it took us about an hour before we fnally got a cab.

cha and i hurried to buy some food for a christmas party with former NSP colleagues. however, we didn't get to attend the party. when i thought the clouds were giving in to the sky, the rain just continued to pour harder. it was impossible to go out already, so we just gave in to the exhaustion from the long day. so instead of being at the party, i am now weighing if i should just get some sleep or blog. guess what i chose? :D

nothing really came out as planned, thanks to the weather.

rainy days like this just gives me the lows. even if i know i'm really okay deep inside, loneliness could be magnified to some extent when it's pouring outside. well, a cold weather is best when there's someone to cuddle with. but if that's not possible, might as well treat yourself with a rich, hot, hot man ... errr, chocolate drink, home-delivered. yum, yum! (i'm thinking about the choclit drink, honest!).. but i won't mind if the drink comes with the hot delivery guy! :p ... wishful thinking, that's all it's going to be.

back to my melancholic thoughts, there's really nothing i can do about the gloomy atmosphere outside. i might as well savor the cold breeze by sleeping early, and cuddle with my fluffy-fluffy pillows and wool blanket to keep me warm. besides, life's not all about what's missing in it. right?

as the song goes, "rain, rain go away, the world is waiting for the sun" (by breaking benjamin).

there's always a bright, sun-shiny day to look forward to! the thought would have been really uplifting if only tomorrow's not a monday. :(
