Notable Memories
























This used to be my file's front cover. No expression, so using "Airbrush" I filled up pair of eyes & a faint smile.








Bus ride back home, staring out @ the busy traffic.

My mind wander, wander to those memorable moments- good, bad, or both. & some, I recalled while blogging this entry.

Cancerian trait, I have superb memory for such details:

, Chinese characters handwriting practice.
Kindergarten Chinese teacher complimented me for good effort & gave me a kiss on my cheek.

Yellow dirty little fellow.
My mum sent me for drawing lesson. My Cousin Kelvin & I were in the same class, it was a "See who is faster"contest. I did the outline first, with black crayon & smeared yellow crayon over my drawing of a duck.

Bullheaded since young.
I was 10, didn't wanted to take instructions from my makeshift guardian who complaint erm ... no, feedback to my mum on my defiance. To protest, I remembered not eating for days & having hit till my knuckles bruised. That was the last time Mum gave me the cane.

Good habit.
I used to jog with my dad. Clad in my jogging attire & my Minnie Mouse waist pouch, I joined my dad for my first jog @ reservoir. I gave up when I reached the first quarter of 4.8 km. Haha. Now, we're on different jogging schedules & lately, I haven't been doing so.

Red Ant & Bird shit.
These are the classics of secondary school days. The red ant was @ the edge of my collar when my best pal discovered it. Intended to shoo the perilous insect away from me, instead she accidentally shove it into my uniform. It bit me & I cried out "shit" in midst of National anthem.

After band practice, with my 2 juniors walking to the bus stop. I was almost near shelter, when bird shit drop on my nose ridge. Human instinct, my fingers touched the shit & I looked @ it in disgust. I stopped my Juniors to ask for tissue & they DISAPPEARED instantly & came back laughing non stop.

First Ktv session with Ade @ Violet.
In those days, we didn't have mouse to click or easy to navigate Remote ctrl. You had to browse through a very thick file & select the song with input of a super long code.

Push cart business @ Meriden
Short-lived venture. Wholesales Nail sticker & sourcing for consignment prdts for sales. Stressful but it was a fruitful experience!

Clubbing @ Zouk & Phuture
Party till 3am, attend tutorial @ 8am. Work hard, play hard.

Amazing X'mas party
I never knew I could be part of amazing race. It was a party organized by the department committee.
Hitch a ride from passing lorry to train station, distributing Mentos to strangers, joining bands to form a skipping rope, eating curry puff & then solve a puzzle to the destination.
I say it's the best game experience of my life!

"Ten years down the road, I bet you'll still remember this!"

My favourite phrase: Those were the days.
