Growing Up In Geylang: Little Giant Me
http://growing-up-in-geylang.blogspot.com/2012/08/little-giant-me.html
Growing Up In Geylang. Wednesday, August 22, 2012. There's a zinc roof that covered our 'cellar' in Geylang. Well, it's not exactly a cellar but a common landing where our three-storey high back spiral staircase ended. This staircase was our fire escape and led to a back alley downstairs. Its landing had a door to keep unwanted visitors out. They reminded me more of tiny prehistoric plants than the tall swaying kampong variety. From a distance, they looked positively toy-like. There's a 'World Cities' ex...

Growing Up In Geylang: Eating Out in the 60s/70s
http://growing-up-in-geylang.blogspot.com/2012/08/eating-out-in-60s70s.html
Growing Up In Geylang. Thursday, August 23, 2012. Eating Out in the 60s/70s. In this blog, I have written about food my Cantonese mom had dished up while I was growing up in Geylang. There were times when she preferred not to cook and we would then tapow from kopitiam zhichars and street hawkers. I was often the errand-boy as I liked to cycle. It beats walking from lorong to lorong. I could also take shortcuts through the many backlanes linking them. Along Sims Avenue would come this chwee kueh seller wi...

Good morning yesterday. You wake up, and time has slipped away. And suddenly it's hard to find, the memories you left behind. Remember. Do you remember? Paul Anka, Times of Your Life. Friday, February 27, 2015. Return to Batu Maung. On the trip back, we decided to take the ferry instead of the Penang Bridge even though the latter was faster. I was hoping to catch a glimpse of the beautiful sunset which I saw in December 1970, and which I blogged about here. 27 February, 2015. 27 February, 2015. An old fr...

Good Morning Yesterday: Memories in a Tin Cup

Good morning yesterday. You wake up, and time has slipped away. And suddenly it's hard to find, the memories you left behind. Remember. Do you remember? Paul Anka, Times of Your Life. Sunday, August 20, 2006. Memories in a Tin Cup. Recently I had the pleasure of attending the book launch of The History of Changi. Well, it didn't take long before I discovered that army trainees have a huge capacity for liquid and that the mug actually wasn't excessively big at all. On a more serious note, I find that many...
