I lived in Block Number 32 until I was almost four years old. The building still stands today. The old cluttered shops have been replaced by new designer ones. So amused to find these good old enamel plates on the shelf!

THIS USED TO BE MY PLAYGROUND
Did you know that I used to live in Jalan Bukit Ho Swee when I was a toddler? My parents would go to work, leaving me with the granny who lived next door to us. I've lost count of the times that granny and I have visited Tiong Bahru Market and its vicinity. We'd have lunch. We'd pick out a small toy or a cheap snack. We'd shop for tableware and household knick-knacks.

对于固执的人,不要想改变他,反而要鼓励他,赞扬他,让他在错误的道路上越走越远。 世上有大多人宁愿喝着迷魂汤上路也不愿喝了良药而回头。少给固执的人建议,你的金玉良言不会换来一丝改变。坚持改变对方可能会遭人嫉恨和报复。你不如说两句漂亮的话,结个善缘。 成年人最顶级的自律是克制纠正他人...
