When we were young

Promised my tuition kid to take her out after my exam so off to the ice-skating rink we went! Despite being surrounded by teenagers and kids half my age, ice skating is quite an exhilarating activity especially when you imagine yourself skating on a lake instead of a Jurong East arena.

It was only when we took neo-prints that I felt OLD. I was completely flummoxed by the new breed of neo-print machines which came complete with overhead lightings, seats and different cameras for half body and full body poses. Unlike the $2 neo-prints I took in sec school, these came at a hefty price of $8! The fun part was decorating the neo-prints with the touch pen provided. Evidence again of Japan's unparalled technological advances.

Accompanied the kids to the arcade next. I have to admit that I haven't outgrown arcade games and relish a round of DDR or rhythmic beats at the percussion sets. This brings back fond memories of my Taiwan trip when Yivon and I shot hoops nearly everyday and played at the arcade till our hearts content!

Oh I didn't go to the new Kallang rink. Was too lazy to figure out how to get there.
