Down memory lane..
At one point in time they were the most precious posession of mine. Now, they're merely insignificant dust collectors. I wonder what are things gona be like in the years to come. Will i be sweeping dust off the items i hold so dear right now!? Recollections of the past came flooding back.
Now this is what u TRULY call a phone book yeah!? i couldnt do w/o it back then without it, i wont know who paged me. What number to call etc. Back then, ppl had "pager Codes". Mine was 22. or was it 02...!?!? Cant even put a face to some names in the list!
I had this green lil book. To keep track of WHO i liked, Who was interested in me.. my "boyfriend" (the type who just take acc u home on the bus w/o even holding hands) etc. i cant believe i wrote "WARNING" on the back of the book... The names appearing on that book were slightly traumatizing as well.. I CANT BELIEVE I LIKED THEM!!!! hahaha... i mean... oh nevermind. havent seen those ppl in years anyway. Some guys made guest appearences, others repeated appearence.. hah. They never paid attention to me AT ALL! it was always the prettier girls tt get the attention.
the BROWNIE handbook Nope. not a book of recepies... it's the "girl guides" that "BROWNIES"... the primary school brown lil things with an akward ribbon, dancing and skipping around a mushroom whom they call the toadstool, chanting lil rhymes about being faries, gnomes, pixies... learning how to sew, pack bags, sweep floor... hahaha.. Ridiculous. Absolutely.
Lets see.. my VERY first pager. Max Uno Plus or smthing of the sort. Remember buying it after my then best friend owned one. She brought me to this Shop at jurong point MRT. and i even had to change the billing address to hers! Had to smuggle the pager here n there.. finally.. i got busted. (as usual). By then, this pager was already spoilt... guess what... they bought me a New pager! WoW!! coolness! Moral of the story!? y hide!!!!!!!!??? tell the truth!
I've got MP3s, voice recorders..... aparently still in not too bad condition. and that pink thing there!?!? it's my very 1st version of a PDA! hah!.. it stores tel numbers.. dates to remember.. bday... and most importantly! it had this feature called the love calculator. it calculated if u and another person's compatible.. wow... u bet how often i was fiddling with that stuff!
SEE!!! i was once int he student council k!!! No kiddin! i was there till i got kicked out due to some police case! hah.. still remember forefieting an overseas trip to taiwan with the vball team. Depressing. damn.
Some vball medals we've earned over the years.... Finally understand what they mean by it's not the RESULT. but the process. Being in the team definately made me grow. It was somewhat an identity that's tagged to my life forever. i was a jurong vball player. we're well known to be good in that sport. to play till nationals every year. Champs for divisional w/o fail. (are things still like this now!?!?) The 12 girls in the team. Xiuyi, myself, Jiayin, Rach, Leeying, Jinwen, Jieqin, Huiming, Tingyi, ChieSing, Chunrui, XinLun. we'd always be known as vballers of the same batch. No matter which path we take in life.. we'd have the common identity.
LOL... this... is my D&T work of "art!".. I have to admit. the concept is mine. Dad drew it for me. Waikit did lots of it too.. the guys each helped to file, buff, drill, lacquer etc.. They did most of the work. i went hopping from 1 table to another getting them to do bits n pieces of it for me. thanks to my mates e.g. waikit, chen han wei, eusoff, wyne ho, matthias my pal, kyaw lin, jiemin, desmond sum, even jinping.. guanghong.. etc.. They helped most with the above WORKPIECE. as for the girls? they were struggling as much as i was. haha. y cant they have more home econs class for girls!!??
Need i say more!? its a MUST HAVE back then.. JPG sehhhhhhhh.. haha.
i will not be seen carrying it. i WILL NOT.
Mum and i painted that cow... as for the 2 bunnies.. its undone.. left with the back grnd.... The dalmations were done when i was... in pri sch!? thereabout. there was this open exhibition at raffles city, the THEN sogo... very first art wrk.. heh.. No idea how i went about making that beady bracelet either!!!!
"Polly pocket says hi!!!!!!!!!" They were my 2nd fave after barbie dolls. Guys are prolly goin "UGhhHhhHH" after reading this. heh. **note the gender difference ppl** If u do share childhood memories of these toys, u're prolly my jie mei now and not some horny ass with raging testerones.
Miss Goh Jin Wen gave this 2 me. She prolly dont remember tho. P & C note behind tis bookmark. More importantly, it signifys that in SOS situations, she's a phonecall away. That was back then. Now, she's still always online larh!! hahahaha. dont 4get our book/coffee session when u're back.
Name Cards were an IN THING for primary sch girls. Ranging from writing em, printing... EVERYTHING. Younger days were filled with imaginary ownership of being rich and owning credit cards.. Dad's expired cards. It seems like ive gotta wait for an eternity b4 im able to get my credit card. Finally at that legal age. I rather go back to that immaginery state. Today, 10 over years from my first contact with credit cards, and i'm still broke. Confirm waste time. The last pic of 2 cards, were given by an ex bf. Heh... spend spend spend spend spend. make it an ex ex ex ex bf. =P. See my point?? good things only happen in the past! haha
Im forever obsessed with hair removal......... bought that from TV innovations or smthing.. Rest assured. it's in the dumpster already. no way am i trying that on now!
Now there was this really sweet guy... We never got the chance to be together. It started out with him bullying me.. pulling my hair.. etc. Then, i found out that he likes me. So what they say about boys is true!!! the more they bully a girl, it means they are fond of them!! :S *weird*
Whenever im attached, he'd confess his feelings. When im NOT attached. he'd NOT say anything. we call that "ying cha yang chuo" dont we? He's the sweetest guy ever. Why? For a GUY, he really made me things, and does things that touches my heart. I dont want expensive gifts! i just want something that comes from the heart. Every single gifts of his are made with extra effort. Not things that $$ can buy. Years down, i look back, what have i got from my ex bfs?? Dont have much pictures.. my comp crash too often. Not many presents either. I dump them.. its the cards and lil gifts which i keep. Guess many guys dont see the point. arghhh.. forget it. since u cant get me things that touches my heart.. Get me expensive things then!!!! hah. *being a bitch is what girls are known for*
A pity that he got together with a buddy of mine. Guess he's finally forgotten about me after that 3 years of hide n seek.
Never understood why guys dont like me, always like other girls.. My self esteem was always at an all time high. Looking at the pics.. it's only NORMAL that they didnt like me larrrr... hahaha. More hideous pics stashed away. *shudders* :P
B-A-L-L-E-T!.... dancing.... just because i look nothing like a graceful swanlake dancer, doesnt mean i wasnt one. *hmph* ren bu ke mao xiang. a casette tape to PROOVE it.
