Remember.....

I really try to remember when was it that the weather was so humid and hot. Simply can't remember a time when the days and nights are so hot.....and also i have to bathe 4 or 5 times a day. The moment one step out of the bathroom, the sweat glands start to work. So better sit under a fan to cool off first before one gets drenched in sweat all over again.
I went out to the garden this evening..and most of the plants are so limped for lack of water. Luckily there is no water rationing or else most of the plants will just withered away for lack of water. I wondered how people can survive in times of draught and the weather is hot. It is so blessed to live in a country where we are not affected by earthquakes, typhoons, or periods of draughts. Landslides.... yes in the rainy seasons. These landslides are generally caused by deforestation and the cutting of trees for development, so the authorities say. Anyway, can the cutting down of trees and deforestation cause such hot weather? I don't know.
Meanwhile, we just have to learn to adjust and to accept this hot weather stuff will be here to stay. Tomorrow will be another day and the hot weather will be here to stay.........

Remember.....

Last Sunday, 4th April, i met some of my classmates, seniors and juniors at one of my classmate's house warmning party. It was indeed nostalgic....meeting so many of them after more than forty years. Many of them i couldn't even remember their names or their faces. A few of them i could remember their faces but not their names. Some i could still remember their names and make out their faces. Just imagine! We left school in 1965. We are the boomers. Many of them are millionaires in their own right, having done very in the field of business, real estate and so on. They have indeed done very well in life and very generous too....contributing much financial help to the schools where they had studied in their childhood. A few of them truly live up to our school motto..'Live to Serve'
Besides the good food, wine and beer were free flowing. This is one night i realized that time is so short. There was so much catching up to do amongst the seventy or eighty of us. It seemed as if it was yesterday that we all left school and now that we meet again, all of us are already in our sixties. Many already have grandchildren! Many too have regain their single status. The next round of gathering i wonder how many of us will be able to attend...........
