Can you spot Me?















Time really flies...

It all seem like it didn't happen too long ago. This is a picture of a class outing back in primary school. I still remember my teacher's name- Miss Lye. But she got married when she taught us and we had to call her Mrs Chia instead. Wonder how she is doing? I still have images in my mind of me and my classmates rushing down to the canteen during recess, and playing Hantam Bolah using Pong Pong fruits ( We had lots of pong pong trees in school). There was this guy who likes to compete who can eat the mosy chilli... How I used to always play "One Leg" during free time... Don't think many ppl know what one leg is... Don't think kids play that anymore. Also buy all the Dragon Ball cards with 20-cent coins, hoping to get the 闪卡. I still have my dragonball cards. What a carefree life I had then? Life was a no-brainer...

Ushering the year of the dog, I'm really starting to get nervous about my age. Freakin 24... I reflect and look back on what I've achieved so far and it struck me. Nothing. There are so many regrets in my life and so many things that I wished could have been this or that way... But it's too late now for some of those things. If only I had been bold in getting what I really wanted. I can never go back now... I feel suffocated when I ponder what and where I will be at the next year of the dog... Wang! Wang!

The feeling of getting old really hits me when I start conversing with Year-Ones. Somehow, I just can't seem to really connect. My jokes aren't funny to them. Their jokes aren't funny to me. I don't even share the same kind of childhood as some of them. They really make me feel that I am of a certain age now. I feel like expired can food or Ba Hu(肉松) that has lao hong(漏风)- no longer fresh. Out-dated. No longer tasty.

我要我的青春。。。 回来吧, 我遗失的时光。。。
