Flying away.


I’m flying off to Bangkok, yes, again, at 5.30pm today.


This time round, I’ll be going with Ying, in addition to Lil and Lun. I wonder what I want to buy from Bangkok this week. There doesn’t seem much to be bought as I’ve already bought what I needed when I was there in April and June. I’ll probably go to Kinokuniya and check out some of the books.


Know what? I’ll be in Bangkok this week, returning around 11.30pm on Friday night, rest two days, and then, fly to my brothers’ place in the morning of the 12th. I should be back in Singapore on Christmas night.


I’ll miss my family when I’m away, but I think that they’d understand my need to have fun. Poor little Glutton and Meerkat will be left alone when their mummy is away, but thankfully, Xue has agreed to look after them for me.

Jeans and cheeks.


My mum decided to take me over to my maternal granny’s (just for the record, I’m left with only one grandparent!) house to hang around today, so she woke me up at the ungodly hour of 10am. AARGH! Come on, who in the right mind wakes up at such an hour when she is on holiday????


So rather grudgingly, I went to brush my teeth, wash my face, bathe, whatever. I was fully dressed and was bending to apply lotion on my feet when my dear old mum, exclaimed so loudly that she gave me a start. Turned out that she had a bone to pick with my new Levi’s which was giving her a wonderful view of half my butt. Oops! I forgot that it was a super low-waist one that I bought the other day and somehow or other, I didn’t prepare her for it. She went on and on about how unsightly it was for girls to be thus attired and that people could see my underwear (which was well hidden anyway), etc… And if that’s not the worst, she started telling me about how rape cases came about, “Because of you, this type of people.” Sigh… MOTHERS!


Now, my little granny does not behave like my mum at all when it comes to my dressing. Like I, she understands that there are times to dress up and down. I know very well when I can wear a particular kind of clothes and you won’t catch me wearing jeans and T-shirt to work, unless it’s a Saturday or the holidays. It’s pretty cute really, because my gran was fascinated with my showing of butt. She even went as far as to say that I looked nice. Gran suggested that I should wear a halter or spaghetti-top with the jeans and match them with heels.


And people say that old ladies are more conservative! :0)

Profile...

Name: Cloudiy Skye / Cloudiyskye
School: Castle in the Clouds
Birthdate: 2nd October
Sign: Libra

A dreamy girl who perpetually has her head in the clouds.

Like the nymph who lives only for Apollo's daily traverse on his chariot, Skye is currently enamoured of this God-like persona on Earth.

Favourites...

What DOES Skye like anyway?

Skye's favourite flower is the Tulip. She feels that it is the epitome of beauty, despite the latter being hard to measure.

The sound of raindrops falling, the smell of the air after a rainfall and the rainbow after the storm are things that capture Skye's attention.

One thing she likes best is looking at the falling rain, especially during thunderstorms.

Know that...

Skye is an English Language and Literature student.

Her preferred subject in school is that of Pragmatics, because it's a FUN field!

She wants to be left alone to do her stuff, but is always interrupted by all and sundry.

Skye uses 3 mobile phones currently: Samsung Ice Cream, Apple iPhone 4 and Blackberry Bold.

Musings...

What is Love, actually?

Do you know? Could you tell me?

The writer, McCullers, once said that "the most outlandish people can be the stimulus for love".

For my part, I think that this is certainly true. Yet, to like a person who has no idea that you like him is pure agony!

In Gratitude...

Thanks be to God. For allowing me to pass everything well and to graduate on time.

Lord, I am grateful to you for having heard my prayers and helping me to obtain my Honours. I give thanks to our Lord.

Lord, in a world where failure is unforgivable, you have shown me that there is a future after that one failed attempt. I give thanks to our Lord.

Lord, you gave me strength to carry on when I was lingering in the shadows of uncertainty. I give thanks to our Lord.

Lord, at the time when others scorned and deserted me, you stood by my side and never once did you doubt me. I give thanks to our Lord.

Lord, for all that you have done for me and for all the prayers of mine that thou art wilt hear, I give thanks to you our Lord.
