Year 2006 started with rain, and it never looked back.
Rain-saturated days ensued; rain starts and ends your cold days. Sometimes you get a feeling that this is the winter Singapore gets, no snow but full of rain. No bitter coldness but a sense of numbness to the surroundings. No fireplace but no need of the air-conditioner. No outdoor activities but school continues. It gets so terribly cold, especially at nights when it has been raining for whole days, that I just dive into the comfort of my sheets and surrender myself to whatever dreams that followed.
But this is not winter. This is just the monsoon season.
The rain makes everything surreal. It fogs up the physical and mental abilites of a person. It makes you sit at home and comtemplate of all the things you could have done. (Trust me, I am actually watching the raindrops trickle down the window panes as I am typing this.) But I believe that it also brings hope. The rain washes away all the bad memories that have gathered over the last year and cleanses the thoughts of people.
So to everybody reading this, start the new year on a new slate. Enjoy the warmth of your friends, your families and your loved ones. Most importantly, don't hate the rain. Enjoy the rain.
