Reminisce the Good Old Times

Hi, it me again!!. Knock!, knock..?! Did I get yr attention?
Today I had a topic for u all to ponder..(Older ppl do reminisce the gd old days?) n discuss?.. Wat changes had made in the life.yrs definitely!!
I meant. It maybe the place that u used to love (now dun cos someone decided to reconstruct it, thinking it is a great idea), or situations u been b4, relationship (bgr, yr buddies?...enemies??.. Yr childish acts??!!!)
I had agreed alot of changes were made here n there in my life, ehh,..I think me old already liao.. start to rem those olden times.. hehahhah.
Lived in teban for all my life, hey..Used to study tat ulu Pandan Pri. (Heard nw facing shortage of student intake?) Tat sch Deserve it rite...nowadays parents kaisu, everything must be gd. Of cos everyone wan a gd sch..Who wan a near sch nw... Not like the olden days...cos parents hardly cared whether their kids could make it to univer.. Jt placed their kids nearby for the sake of convenient.. (The sch: My old sch, jt had to work hard in improving student grades than kept on revanotin the image of the sch ;P)
I still rem tat time there was even a lady who help to carry the signboard for the students to cross the road to one of the entrance of my sch.. Later it tranformed.. decided to use cheap labour telling students to stand at traffic post, pressing the button plus the teacher standing hovering there like an eagle...
Goin to PAP kindergarten tat time was a dread... teachers were so fierce..
Scolding.. scold scold.. slapped yr hands with a wooden ruler. U would even think that our punishment was their pleasure(even pri sch do tat). On my way to kindergarten, I alway passed by the "quiet" ghost NPP..."no business".. So rural.. Wonder how they passed time..slp?... Jt happened to see them once in "action"; rescued a dumb cat (who one day decided to climb up a high tree, later got "jelly-legs" in jumping down)..Hehhahh.

Lantern festive, I remembered usually the older kids would burnt lantern/ played candles, fireworks n crackers (which we used to play till some stupid kids want to hurt themselves then kena ban!! together with chewing gums) n the swings in playground...the old slide with the wax left all over n around after a day of celebrating of "burning" lantern festival. Speaking of tis, nowadays still got ppl go to that lone Chinese Garden to see the so-called beautiful lanterns (the place decide to go for fees during festival if not usually free to go).

Swimming pool at my place, Teban??... Sigh...lousy facilities at first got canteen later dun know why dun have liao, n become down n out..ppl nw go for fancy rides lah..
Last time, I used 2 to go to do some errands down by afew blocks, Blk32..now changes so much although it seem to have mre, better facilities, but nvr like wat it used to be lively, mre like a ghost town I could say. No crowds anymore, it seems that not every new thing must be gd. Last time we used to enjoy the gd food there, then came the renovation. Things had changed even the hawkers were gone..replaced by some new hawkers who seem to be in their first tender yrs..even some shops still stay but nvr did the crowds went back. :(

Children ahh.. reali got wild n futile imagination .. Hahha I did rem c n hear abt the story of the rope in sch(buries near the entrance of the sch), daring students would go n tried to pull (like tug n war) but no use, it refused to budge, .. Rumors the someone hang themselves at tat tree (cos at tat time ppl believed the trees with heavy shades, may had spirits hang around..Sigh..Who believe?) Even toilets at the 3rd storey were complained of ghost huntings, dun know whether if it was true cos ttat time we used to have class-by-class doin the maintenance of sch grounds..
I rem the old times when pri 5 students got to have camping in sch grounds.. We get to slp in the lousy classrooms n stage..awfully freeze at dawn cos our tents got wet. We got so excited to spend the nite, talking til wee hrs..Then grumbled when we had to jog the reservoir at early morn for morn exercise (6am?), kena teachers said we deserved it (hey the teachers got to slp in air-con lib leh: unfair!) ;P we got to drink a veri watered-down Milo done by our teachers (like water plus the Milo smell onli not even the taste!!) n curry (one had to stir n stir to c if there is any ingredients.. guess.. Not much budget leh)...even got hse practice...P.E lessons..either the gers got to change in the classrooms or toilets).

Sch times were fun.. Those days..we played more than now kids study alot like swallowed the whole dic.(sg smartest kid).. Recess seems to be more worthy in sch day to us than lessons.
We played throughout the time instead of stuffing ourselves. (kids nw favor fastfood..then came the "fatty" tuff club..last time where got these.."funny weird "programs).. ttat time if u were selected, ppl gave u all kind of looks leh, with nicks like "piggy" boi/ ger.. made them embassed (no one wan to go leh, in end, skip class. In the end, the club was unsuccessful: so little "members" who did turned up) . Of cos now...the numbers enlarged leh..by so much.. From the most loving ahlmas(who I seen) serving their precious grandchilden drumsticks everyday without failing to the kids nw hogging the fast food restaurants (with alittle mre money, a so-called self-conscience of hygenic..all of sudden, sg becomes a "heaty" place tat ppl need aircon to surive..?? Since when hawkers will serve the poisonous food, as if fast food dun..? As if the hawkers ppl dun care abt image??.. Rem when there were times any rumor of virus get in food, the fast food restaurants r the first to ensure ppl, n slash the price..b4 u can light a match..of cos..hawkers cant to do..(in first place they sold cheaper leh..if slash like fast food...they survive wat?)!!.. idiotic!! Of cos, there was times when hawkers decide to do it when economics is down ($1 chicken rice etc..NW even got economic beehoon; breakfast)
(Playing marbles, zero-point, hopscotch..five stones were the games we play during lunchtime) even " eraser" games (flipping of erasers)hehah... ppl would buy the whole box(cost abt 10cents each) c who got the most number of erasers in the end.. Bookshop was our fav place.."alot of new n cool things"
ehh..Nw..ppl played computer games.. Internet(You name it. the kids will show u all..point out to u, or even show off which equipments they have nowadays to fight against the boredom of lives n endless tuition plus sch work!) n playstation PS. Nt just ttat..must mention it to be PS2..or u will be poorly titled to be not in latest stream of fashion..or Xbox.!!. Capcom games we played are kidish they say..poor graphics.. Go n c the final fantasy u will know what are "cool" graphics if u dun know any of them. Or esle they will categorize u as history.
If u still buy Receiver, u will be considered old-fashioned. Hey, man ..they will say y not get a mp3 player (like creative's newest child on the block, tat can stores a few thousands of songs like museum).. Nowadays...kids tend to be stuck at hm more tune to playing pc games than ever going out to have a nice gd game n have a sweet refreshing sweat. Internet is popular..so do the dangers it posed. Porno graphics are so easily accessed so do ppl get interested in hacking, cool..having fun..(getting to c a MNC breakdowns / get interrupts in their daily routine), making our parents in turn become more protective, fierce eagles hovering over n around n around us. Commit suicide doesnt seem to a big deal anymore..seem to be an easy way out when ppl overcome with stress.

I noticed there are newspapers reporting teenagers get stuck with huge heavy phone bills, coned by ads, getting to know mre frnds n popluar..usually are guys leh..hehhaha..not tat I say they(guys) r stupid. but u seldom c gers clocking this amount by this kind of ads. one of my guy frnd told me that there is two different lines for the different sexes. like if u r a ger, u get to call by tis nums. U will eventually speak to the guys..around..this applies to bois..mm...but some companies dun charge gers cos its' a business tactics jt like pubs having ladies' nite to attract guys to come. it is the same..all I had to say is cool ideas, wonder how much my guy frnd spend, but luckily he is not hooked to get himself in debts..;)

tat all I had said, folks..how abt u? say yr views leh..Jt veri sorri if u get so sleepily abt such a lengthy one piece of topic..:P
