A walk down memory lane

this got to be the most meangiful post til now
it is about yesterday
not that going for tuition and linette's birthday was boring
but yesterday was an important day in my life
not about playing soccer and injuring my leg in my new mizuno boots
but about visit the house i grew up in
or at least spent the first ten years of my life

the view from my house, one that i was used to

after i played soccer, i took a bus back to my old house where my dad was packing up stuff as it was about to be torn down. we sold the house in wat u call an en-bloc sales. which basically means the whole place will be demolish and new buildings will be build on the land.

i missed my stop, either delibrately or destined, i got to walk a longer path back in, one that i used to walk everyday, one which was the only one i knew for a long time. i tried to cut through the grass patch that i used to, the one behind my classmates house. forgotting that it was gone, there stood three new terrance house. gone were the mimosa that i used to step, gone were the woonden planks that i used to cross the long kang.

i walked round the street, finding the roads farmilar but yet the house were new and renovated, bartley sec school which appear when i was primary two was expanding and looked frightening huge and out of place in my quiet neighbourhood. i also notice that the mango tree growing near the grass patch was gone too. the female papaya tree was still there but it was one that never bear fruits as there was no male tree nearby.

i walked past the empty security post and the guard house which i used to play hide and seek, the see-saws behind it was gone too, it is now and extended area for the BBQ pits.

i decided to head upstairs in search of more memories, on the second floor i tried something that i did everyday when i was young. i climb the stairs using the hand rails which allows me to complete one flight of steps with one pull. it was suprisingly easy, probably because i am taller now. the rails felt wobbly, they either aged or i was getting fat.

more shocking thing was to be seen when i saw the door, it was old and definately doesn't look like the one when i left it. it is the one on the right.

it was open when i arrived and i went in to see my dad sorting out junk. i took a slow observatory tour up the steps to the next spilt level and down that ten metres corridor that i got the scar on my right shin. i discovered that all four toiilets were in a very bad state, something i would not have allow when i was staying there. my grandma's room was totally empty and i did not wish to step in and think about her. i head my room after i discover that the toilet that i used to bath in was tarnish and was burned about three years ago.

then i went to my room, to dicover that the cupboard that i use to put my clothes was still around, it was broken and all, but i can recongise it, i found a can of spray paint in my mum's room and use it to vandalise my wall, it was to be torn down anyway. i took a few photos to show u guys how high the ceiling was.

after which i went to look at the split level and the kitchen, wat memory of the first place i took the plunge literally from the top of the cupboard at the split level and the first place i was locked in by a moment of folly on my part.

As i was leaving i took a few snap shots of the place for keepsake, the same scene which i will try to keep in my head for as long as i can. the same sight will probably never appear before my eyes or anybody's for that matter.

i waited for those coconut tree to grow until they could reach my house on the fourth floor and i could the coconuts from my window. they finally did but it will all be gone soon.

just before i finished this post, this is the picture of the guard house and my dad's car beside it. i wanted to post this yesterday but i was too tired after soccer, i slept at 7 pm last night, hence it was late. oh well got to do TJC's chem sometime soon before chelski vs LFC.

7:18 pm

Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start now and make a brand new ending. Sometimes someone says something really small, and it just fits right into this empty place in your heart. Turn your face to the sun, and the shadows fall behind you." The less we look with our eyes, the more we will see with our hearts. Everyone's a star and deserves the right to twinkle. I'm not beautiful like you. I'm beautiful like me. Tomorrow is always fresh, with no mistakes in it.
