"I Not Stupid 2"

Ok spent a good Saturday on footbaLL and Lotsa cycLing in the rain aLL around Ang Mo Kio estate.

Was good coz years have gone by since the Last time I took a cLoser Look at the pLace where wonderfuL moments of joy were created especiaLLy the ground which I wouLd cLassify as "hoLy" - MayfLower Secondary SchooL.

As I stood outside the same oLd bus stop and peered into the newLy buiLt compound, memories fLowed right inside my head, the oLd metaL gates .. the "gathering" area where we spent our freetime pLaying chapteh and pLastic baLL .. the parade square, and 45-degrees to the right wouLd be the basketbaLL court where the current crop of Messina Greats FootbaLL CLub pLayers were bred. The canteen is another spot of vivid memories .. juz ask the ex-students. The toiLets are yet another pLayground for the boys ; water hose and taps .. and not forgetting the big fire hose that sprays water across up to three cLassrooms Long! This fact is onLy known to my victims.

Now, it is but an open fieLd ..
Those were the days .. bet u had your share of moments too ..

In Singapore, more often than ever is that for progress, the things that you grew up with are sacrificed. Yes, we are aLL growing up ..
