Complicated

Nov 4, 2009

Saturday was Halloween and i went out with my classmates for a drink.. initially wanted to go night safari but it rained in the end. What a shame! So later went to Clark quay, where the clubs and pubs prevails. I cant put the pics here.. i dun understand, the pictures just cant load at all. I'm so pissed. I ordered a lychee martini and the others ordered something else.. We really had such a great time we took so many pictures... That was the second time i celebrated my Halloween. But indeed it was memorable!

Saw the little renovation below my block.. makes me think about the little me in the past that used to play at the playground. Thinking back, the playground, although was not well designed to adhere to the safely for children, but it enables us to grow healthily in the neighbourhood. My playground used to have a monkey bar, and i was so good at it that i became famous among the kids in the neighbourhood to be the "monkey boy". The playground has two slides.. where we can jump from the great height to the soft ground all the time. We used to have kids gathering to play with different kids in the neighbourhood, different races and age. It is a place for playful kids to play... I still remember there was a time, a girl named atiqah lived opposite my block. (not the friend i have now) She had very long hair, and i used to think her hair makes the most attractive mop ever. Haha! Just kidding. But honestly i had a thing for girls who has long hair. We played together most of the time, we had catching, ice and freeze, blind mice... all sort of games. And there was a time we played blind mice, i accidentally touched her butt while i was blind folded. . And my whole face turned red. Ever since then she always make fun of me by saying i touched her butt. But well.. its all in the past. No more neighbours like her. we are all grown ups. I cant possibly go around playing blind mice and touch ppl's butt.
Times changes so fast. Now I'm 18. Things changes around us too. Beside the playground is a small patch of sand. In the past i used to play "GOLI" marbles on it. Now the patch was covered by grass long ago.. The playground now transformed into some place where infants can be safe while playing. Everything is so low.. so well protected. Hard to climb and jump. No fun at all!
The 2005 onward babies wont even know what is a goli. Even if they know, they won't know how to play them, or what is the uses already. Kids nowadays dives into the pool of IT.. No live at all. Hitting the mouse hard and staring the computer screen all day.. i got nothing to say.

But well, while we are busy planning the things carefully what we want to achieve, mostly material satisfaction.. we kinda forgot about how people from the past. How did they thrived. I realised the more u yearn the more burden u have. I want my mind cleansed... Now treating the biggest worry as something minor. Somehow needing a short break.
