Walk down memory lane
yikes. i just cant concentrate and get down to mugging. todayy was absolutely sianified that i decided to check out one compartment of my drawer, which contains lots of stuff that i kept since ages ago. haha. was really amused by some of them so i shall share them with u all and see if u ppl r amused too. (:

see the "By: Tan Chor Kiang"? yepp! but i didn't do the whole of it haha. i remember we spent many many arts and crafts session in P3 or P5 doing cross stitching. basically i suck at it lahh. have to stare so hard at the holes and what not. i did three of the balloons then gave up le and my mum helped me do up the rest coz i was just so cmi @ cross stitching. :P anw the message on the cross stitch says "make time for laughter". yeahh. we should all try to smile more. (:

These postcards are places I have been to when I went on an exchange programme to Japan in P5. The ancient Japanese castle looks so cool I wish I can live in one! (: haha. and i went to this volcanic mountain called Mt Aso. You can really see thick clouds of steam pouring out and it's very cold up the mountain but you can feel the heat of the steam. Sadly I didn't go there in winter. How i wish i could get to witness the scene in the last postcard - a wintry Mt Aso!
But the postcard above shows a whole herd of COWS, which i did see. there were just so many of them at the bottom of the volcanic mountain and i got to ruffle the head of one of the cows. (: so i just realised i have actually posed beside a real cow before.

hmm. haha. if u cant read chinese the above chunk of text just means i am very pro. :P jokingg. this bookmark is one of a series of bookmarks made by our pri sch teachers to wish us luck for our psle. we got a diff personalised bookmark for each day of our paper. cool huh! really appreciated their hard work. (:

was extremely amused over this set of figurines which is still hiding in my drawer. haha. to think i was playing with them 2 world cups ago. and now the world cup's back. how time flies. :/ the creators of the figurines could have been more creative thoughh. we dont see all the players in a marching pose on the fields do we? :P

evidence that i was a voracious reader back in my pri sch days. i think i read over 1000 books in 2 years. im serious. we had certificates awarded for a certain milestone number of books which we had read and a quick total showed i read over 1000 books from P1-P2. haha. and this collar pin is awarded in recognition of me being one of the top readers. quite sad that i dont read 5% as much now. ):

these photos were taken in sec 2 when we were assigned a proj to take pics of buildings which are geometrically appealing. -.- haha. i rmb doing this project with
hulin and
zhenghao. aft that we were supposed to do a website featuring these buildings. and that was how i got to know
nat coz some rg girl said shes veri zai at site building and so i got her help to do up our site. she was quite efficient coz an hr later she got a professional site up and running. (:

that wasnt the last time i worked with
nat. this badge brings back lots of memories. guess most of you should remember this. (: VULCANS!

i literally LOL-ed when i saw this. i must have been reeeally young at that time coz i this handwriting really sucks. my only explanation for this was that there was an elections going on and i wanted to vote so badly. so yeahh. :P
and this is only one compartment in my drawer. wonder what other treasures lie in my drawer, though each year my mum will make me throw away 10% of it. but its really fun to dig out the stuff in my drawer and have a good laugh over them. stress relief while attempting to mug. (: hope u all enjoyed looking at those items in my drawer like i did! ;)
