Reminisce... the 80s and 90s

I am indulging myself in all those reminiscence.. From 80s all the way till recent. I am sorry if I sound as if I am so old (I am only 22 year old, basically still considered 21 cos birthday not over yet) but those days in the past makes me hope that I can go back, just like the current 9pm show, 变奏曲. Jun Jie (by Christopher Lee) manage to go back to those times and change everything that is going to happen. How I wish I can go back too just by throwing one S$1 coin into the pond (its illegal to do so lah). Anyway, who recognises the pond? Can you guys tell me so that I can dive in and take the S$1 coin. I am sure they have alot of NGs so I bet everytime they throw one, I dont think they will dive and take back the coin. Maybe right now in the pond, there are so many coins for me to take lah, at least can become rich for this mth. Hahahah.


Talking about those past, although its over but those memories are still so clear, as if all these just happened yesterday.

  • I remember the days I use phonecard with different kind of pictures printed on it.
  • I remember the days where we use FARECARDS instead of ezlink card. (shown below)

  • I remember those primary school days we are only given 50 cents each day for recess. (To my horror, recently I went to this primary school at west side, the canteen charge a girl with plain rice and egg S$1.10!)
  • I remember the days in primary school where we have school bus to catch in the morning and after school.
  • During recess(pri), we always play catching and each of us sure fall down before and bleed at our kneecap.

  • I remember at age of 10 or before 14, few of us actually went to Orchard before. (right now, it seems so common to the youngster)
  • I remember we got our pager first in 1999 or 2000 and subsequently in 2000 or 2001, Nokia launch its 3210 handphone. Although in the 80s and 90s we have this bulky handphone produced by Motorola (see below, manufactured in 1983) but seldom uses it. Take a look at the pager our dad uses before. Remember?


  • I remember those days where we look nerd in those big spects.

I can only remember these few. Any of you guys got some other 80s or 90s stuff? Just tag my blog and we discuss together ok. Hahah.

If life is all round, and I can go back anytime I want, I guess it would be a bless man. To be able to see someone you missed alot. To get to know somebody's life on how they live in their past (like someone whom I wanted to know badly!). To see what the individuals do during their free time. To take a look at my teachers in primary school (one old chinese male teacher passed away). To do.... ALOT OF THINGS!

Sooner or later, we will have floating cars (Shanghai have floating magnetic train), flying man and woman (attach to some flying engine lah), working at home (but office hours), phoneless (some scientist implant those chips beside human's and uses brain wave. It works!), able to fly to other planet and visit them just like us going to zoo to see animals (it will be routine as if we take train to work daily and charges will be cheap for sure!), maybe some super heros might really appear??? Who knows man but one thing for sure is, THE FUTURE WILL BE EXCITING AND CHALLENGING FOR US TO TAKE IT.

Awaiting...

Bye peeps.

March 2024

Have the sudden urge in wanting to write an entry with my new nuphy60 keyboard. It just makes you feel so damn clever when typing away. The tik tik tiak tiak sound from the keys truly makes you look more clever. Just looks... Well, I have completed one travel with my friend and went Sydney, drove up to Brisbane. We did stopovers at Port Stephen, Port Macquarie, Coff Harbour, Byron Bay, Gold Coast and then to fly out in Brisbane. The whole trip took us about 12 days. For those who chanced upon this blog, I would suggest to only  drive when you are travelling out  of Sydney. The parking and tolls are insanely expensive than our carparks (exclude MBS lah hor) and ERP. Got another upcoming trip and it would be my last trip. Why is it a last trip? Well, I have been accepted (verbally only, waiting for the black and white) to study Masters in Social Work with SUSS. School is gonna start in July 2024 and honestly, I doubt I will have the time to go for long distance travels. Its gonna take 2

Emptied 2022, New 2023

 Time now is 1.48am. Just out of the blue, I recalled I have a blog. I thought I have done an entry in 2022 but .... Well, 2022 has been a horrible year. I don't need to pen it down to remember this 2022. My first HR inquiry done in my whole entire 10 years of work life. I had alot of anger at the beginning but with support from very close friends I deemed, I am trying to let it go. I do not think I will ever forgive nor forget. But honestly, whatever that has happened in 2022 was one of the greatest lesson given to me, although not the worst though but yes, it can be like my top 5 lessons learnt. 2022 has also given me plenty of opportunities not just at work, but building relationships with friends that I deemed worth the effort and time and in return, indeed, relationships turned better. I truly appreciate to these friends who has appeared in my life, making my life so interesting. Well, 2023, I have done my travelling. Finally get away for a 3 weeks long trip to Eastern Europe.

Ending 2023 with no bangs (but I got fringe)

 I have been trying to keep my blog alive, at least for myself and not for readers (not as though I got readers). The first half of 2023 was a hell ride. I think the only good thing that has happened during the first half of the year was my 3 weeks of Europe trip. I was asked to reflect the issues that has happened way back in 2022 during my 3 weeks trip. Of course, travelling alone, I had lots of time to myself in reflecting the matter. It took me till near end of this year to come to realisation. Well, better late than never! I was in a relationship for a brief period and I am glad that has ended. Though I did not wish to be in that situation, however, I cannot have any control and it is very unfortunate that it happened. Its probably quite clear to me that I would prefer to stay single and just be by myself. Second half of 2023 consist of more excitement, with my sprained ankle, I did not do the Mount Kinabalu climb however it was a good trip for me, to explore Sabah abit and I have
