Preserve it!

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

went to safra for lunch today, with Javen and Niki. :)
on the way back, i noticed the dragon playground was gone.
oh my goodness, i thought. its... gone. G-O-N-E, for good.
the dragon playground was featured in Royston Tan's film, Old Places.
not the one in Tampines, sad to say. /:

it's... sad.

all of them are disappearing at sucha fast pace.
you may see it today, but you might not get to see it tomorrow.
it really upsets me, alot. because i just dont get it.
all these old places carry a meaning, and bits of memory in everyone.
tearing them down is like taking away a part of you.

"Every time we go to the places we feel very sad,
like you see old playgrounds where nobody plays
."
-Roystan Tan




there's no turning back, so i beg you to stop...
