Daimaru was the cool place cause it has Kinokuniya. And in the east, teens including me would hang out at Parkway Parade esp near the huge waterfall area.

It's not a lovely island city anymore... I remember Singapore of the early 90s. It was beautiful. I'm from Europe and was living with my partner who was Singaporean. We had a modest life, not well off, just an HDB block but it was home and it was a lovely, simple life. During Ramadan, we used to meet up after work some evenings at Pasir Ris park at end the fast by the beach. I remeber being back there again on our last day in Singapore, laying on the sand and looking up at the stars deciding wether we had to stay or go. By the late 00s kiasuism was getting too close to our little world. Everything is more crowds, more materialism, more money, more designer bullshit. No time to live and be with loved ones. So we bailed. Do I miss Singapore? There's not a day goes by when I don't miss what my island home *was*. And it was home. No where I have ever lived has *ever* felt more "home" to me than our little HDB flat. I miss it like crazy. But you can't go back because it's not just a where, but a when. I don't want to go to Singapore now, because it would kill me inside to see what they have done to such a beautiful place. I'll never forgive the greed of the government and it's neo-liberal obsession, or the cowardness of those that let them do it.
