My earliest childhood memory is of my kindergarten days. As with most lower middle-class families, i attended the PAP Kindergarten in the HDB heartlands (in my case, the Kim Seng area).

It was a lazy sunday afternoon at home. My bro and me were having some fun teasing Granny. She loves to play with her grand children.
