Time moves pretty fast. Speaking of those days, I'm probably the last 20th century kid who still remember everything, before 21st century.

No much memory of Orchard Cineleisure, more of the old Orchard Cinema.

My son got me a large LCD but I seldom watch tv, gathering dust so I covered it. With internet so interesting who need the boring tv shows.

I don't play games much.

Nowadays I am glued to You-Tube instead of watching crappy Japanese dramas and childish game shows.The other I watched a documentary on retired war correspondants recounting their stories about the Vietnam war.

You can only get washboard, built into a bowl at Daiso nowadays.

But seriously.....with washing machines.....those footstools and washboard bowls thingy is like novelty items.

I had them. But left them brand new at last rental place liao. Really a hassle to move around with them when I am a nomad nowadays.

Thats because whoever is made to wash your clothes with washboard really hates you.

To tell you the truth sometimes I still dreamt of reporting back to camp and doing the training I used to do.Even on holidays in Thailand and Philipiines I would still go to the Police or Military firing ranges to squeeze a few rounds.

Not really most have more than six packs, full of wrinkles.

Just put up laundry to dry.

And changed out a new nametag for my old uniform.

Sigh.....times really have changed.

And sometimes......I really wish those admin fellas will stop being so 'creative' on certain aspect of our life, and for heavens sake really improve our lives!
