The Spring of 2006.
When spring comes, something happens. And all's right with the world.
Spring does something to all God's little creatures as it sneaks in on the long hard winter. Everything comes alive again, and everything actually makes an effort to live. In winter it's like, 'I dont really care if i die because i'm so cold'. People are napping on the grass in the sunlight, playing frisbee/football/soccer in the fields, the birds have ressurrected, and i feel hot in my sweater. It better be light-sweater weather for a while man... OR ELSE WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TO ALL THE SWEATERS I BOUGHT HUH?
All you critters in Singapore cant possibly comprehend fully, this magical transformation; to be able to wear slippers outside without your toes feeling like they're going to fall off from frostbite, to realise that the sun actually gives warmth, the joy that overwhelms you when you remember that trees really are green. With the perpetual summer there, the fact that the sun is warm is painfully obvious, slippers are staples, and the trees in your neighbourhood will respire as long as the world shall live. Be thankful, darlings, for you dont know what evils the cold has in store for you (unless, of course, youre trapped in a Cold Storage refridgerator).
Anyways, what i want to say is, WHOOHOO FOR SPRING!, swishing her pretty skirts over dusty old Hamilton, reminding us that life really is worth living after all - even when one is having her period.
And HURRAY FOR EXAMS IN SPRING!!!

Waaaaaaaa, reading your entry made me feel like i'm reading a story book. It's full of wonderful description. Because i just got out of my super cold room and went to the toilet, a mini winter changed into a mini spring (:
Oh well, but i guess when i go overseas and study, i'll be feeling the same thing as you. Not yet, but soon, like in 4 years ):
Anyway, push on hard your your exams, /ignore all the crap that is distracting you, just mug mug mug. I'll pray that GOD will give you loads of wisdom (: Taaaaa for now...
Hehe, spring please. (:
