I look like an over-cooked lobster now. I'm bright red from the arms down and my eyes are fast disappearing into my brownish face like they always do when I get burnt. I'm one of those RARE people who look icky in a tan. :(
Spent the entire day at Sentosa, though I didn't actually intend to. I intended to stay out at the beach 'til 6pm then come back home for dinner. I intended to STAY OUT of the water 'cause it's not really quite convenient for me to get wet right now. But what I did was to stay out 'til 10pm complete with dinner at Wilfred's place. PLUS. I did get completely and entirely soaked.
I love the sunset on the beach. I spent about an entire 5minutes looking out at the sea and the sun setting and just thinking and thinking and thinking about my million and one things before jumping into the water and swimming to the other side. Looking at the sun setting as water laps up to my toes is practically hypnotic. I have this dreamy far-away look on my face with spaced out eyes as I just soak in the whole beauty of the scene before me. I think I'm a very reflective person. Some people seem to love going out all the time, spending every single waking minute of their lives with their friends. But I can't do that. I need some quiet time to myself every single day to sit/lie down and think back to the day that's just passed. I reflect on those moments which leave me feeling slightly annoyed with myself, make resolutions to make the next day more enjoyable and savour those wonderful, secretive moments that leave me all warm and happy inside, even if no one would ever understand why I'm so appreciative of such things. And on certain days during the holidays, I realise I'd really really much rather just stay home curled up in bed with a book or lie stretched out on the sofa watching tv.
So yeeeess. After all the excitement of today that has left me feeling quite flushed and warm inside due to the fact that I've thoroughly enjoyed my day with Cheryl and Melissa and the rest of the group. I shall go curl up in bed soon and think about the day that's zipped by me like that and be very thankful for everything that's happened today. :)
