loving you always ♥
I remembered how life was when i was younger. I was born in Tampines Street 42, I could still remember the HDB mansionette which i used to live in for a couple of years before we moved to a condominium at Mariam Way. I loved the life there as it was back then. There were like 3 bedrooms on the upper floor and it runs along a corridor before leading to a flight of stairs to my hall. Its a huge elongated hall which stretches the dining area to the living room. From young, my parents used to emply a domestic helper to help us with house work and stuff when my siblings were still studying and i was like 4-5 years old.
So when we moved to Mariam Way life changed, Seemed rather monotone at first cause i missed my neighbours. Especially
Bryan and
Loraine. Till today.. we kinda lost contact cuz they migrated to Perth. So its like, life sucks for sure now that i know they were gone. So i made new friends there, there's
Daryl and
Nickholas living just on my left,
Bryan,
Benjamine and another living on the 8th. Were fun guys at first when things got nasty when we started sneaking off each other's pokemon cards, well those were the days i swear to you. hahas sneaky lil bastards innit? LOL. So i used to swim a lot cause we had a swimming pool, and its where i learnt how to swim. The depth goes as deep as 1.8 metres but i used to be around 1.7m plus or so i cant remember i had to tip toe to get my head off the surface of the water. So i stayed around the 1.4m section to be safe lmao.
During the construction of another convo just beside ours. An event took place. Its something not many would know about and it was classified, wasn't in the news though. There's like a 13 foot long 5 foot tall bomb found just half a klick away from my block, along the field by the side road which leads in the construction site. Called the army, extraction unit and the police, there's like a whole company of men down there the extraction point. They dug a pretty deep trench, enclosed the bomb (its a world war 2 armed bomb which probably failed to go boom!) in it and fill the trench with dirt. A couple of mins later it went BOOM! Freaking loud, somewhat like those you see in a movie just the dirt don't go flying sky high. Pretty much it. Dad took a vid of it i see if i could find it in the archive i'll put it here.
Played lots of Squash and sometimes Tennis with a couple of mates and i remembered how i got trashed badly by my bro-in-law when we played squash. dad joined in too if i remembered well that was a couple of years back so yeah memories do get washed off. Then DAD decided to buy another house this time in the Central so we bought one in Geylang. Those of you who doesn't know about property probably gonna think that Geylang's a crap place to live in. Its a 15 min journey to town and you tell me its a crap place? =P hahas no offence but yeah i love that place its where i'm living now. So we rented out our condo and moved to Geylang instead. its where i'm living now. lovely!
