525,600 Minutes

I should've looked for Seasons of Love earlier; it's such a nice song. Well, glad I managed to listen to it. It's like been set on repeat for a few hours on end already.

Klow's already posted the song lyrics on his blog previously, so I shan't bother doing so again. But it does make you think, doesn't it.

Went to KAP, Bukit Timah Plaza, and Pei Hwa on Saturday. Damn, everything's changed. Where's the Waffletown I ever so loved to go to when I was a child? Oh yeah, next to Barker. >_> Where's the ol' arcade which I never went in but always wanted to check out? Gone. =\ What's there now? Like 5+ maid employment agencies take their stand there. What's this Bukit Timah Plaza now? I'd be scared to go there as a child, seeing those swarms of people trying to get a maid. =
Pei Hwa is the same. Everything's so modern now; it doesn't have that Chinese element it had back then before it renovated. =\ Where's the secret exits? The small hole at the back gate where Yu Min, Gid and I sneaked out through? (Yes it's small) The area at the side gate where one could climb over the walls and sneak out? The stone-laden path where we played that game? The simplistic facilities which we lived with? The monkey bars far out at the end of the field? Now instead there's that darn Westernized fishpond at the centre of the classroom block, and the classrooms stack 7 stories high. Like, damn, dude. This is a SAP school! Seriously, Western Modernization + Embracing the Chinese Culture = Giant Banana. =\
