I was travelling along ECP yesterday afternoon and saw a rainbow jutting out of the overcast sky. It was still drizzling.
I seldom look up the sky.....anyway, its always there!!
But when I was overseas, in UK, in US, I had a habit of looking up the sky. Probably because the weather is less predictable and more varied than Singapore's weather, especially during seasons change. At night, the stars twinkle brighter. Or probably because I simply missed home....
Back to my ECP ride. I look at the rainbow. It brought me back to Scotland. It was Easter and my classmates and I had planned for a Scotland drive up over the holidays. I remembered the poor old school days, we rented 2 Nissan March, 8 guys, 2 girls, 10 backpacks....all squeezed into that 2 little Nissan March.
I can't remember where exactly I was but along the mountainous Scottish rides where we practically see no end to the roads, we saw a rainbow. The weather was pretty much the same as while I was on ECP, wet, overcast and a little chilly.
One of classmate was lamenting that if you make a wish when one goes under the rainbow, the wish will come true. Well.....we weren't 3 year olds but twenty-somethings undergrads!!! Who would believe that!!! Anyway, rainbow is just merely a spectrum of light!!
But I.......secretly made a wish

....I wished for a 1st class Honours.

.....And it came true!!!
Then while on ECP, I wanted to make a wish too. I realised it is not so straight forward anymore!! I wanted to make wishes!!!!! Several things came into my mind. I wanted a strike Toto. I wanted to have a baby.....blah blah blah.....Then I decided on one......to be healthy. By then, the rainbow was not in sight anymore!!!!
Big Sigh!!!!...........The older you grow, the more aimless you are of what you want.
What do you want in life?
