have u learnt dance no. 40?

haha... if not, u can learn by looking at the 29 figures on H6.
uh, pardon me, but this dance seems to involve only the upper body, so i think it'd look quite stiff and weird. (guess what? u can even try to do it while sitting down!)what a couch-potato-friendly dance..yeah yeah!!

hehe.. last night i took the NR7 home, and i passed by orchard rd, SMU campus, the national lib, my old house at kallang (there is going to be a new expressway right next to the block). i remembered i went for a NDP at the stadium when i was still quite young, and we walked back through some dark alley and the Geylang lorong 5. there were creepy old houses on both sides of the road, and we wouldnt have gone this way if not for the crowds of red and white also walking the same way. for some weird reason, walking along lorong 5 to home was one of my most vivid ndp memories.
perhaps it has something to do with it being my first live ndp, or maybe just becuz i've never walked along a dark road in my life yet.
well, unfortunately, the creepy houses and lorong 5 have made way for the new expressway, and the place has become a huge open area with a 4 lane road. no more crawling cars along the narrow lane, no more tree branches ready to grab unsuspecting passers-by.... and no more creepy shadows. no more lorong 5..

oh..n the expressway has also devoured in its path my mosquito-infested park where i learned to cycle ard sharp corners, before i graduated to east coast park. those mosquitoes were really something. each bite swelled up to a 5cent coin size.
(do we seriously need another expressway? but this is just a pointless ques.... the whole thing is just a very typical example of development.)
just leave me to preserve my memories...
