Grandma 's old house


My grandma use to stay at this building, she is the main tenant and sub rent units to others. There are friendly and unfriendly people staying there.
Those green windows are an icon. Part of the house - the door and the staircase brings back a lot of memory. If i had not miss the bus stop, i would not have end up here and took these picture. When was the last time i had fun here? Think it was 20 years ago. I miss this place.....

This picture is taken directly opposite my grandma house. It used to be a coffee shop, there is one fruit stall managed by an old ah peh. I loves his papaya and agar agar which comes in various colours. By then we pay only a few cents for them. Of course the money is sponsor by grandma.




The old tiles of the floor. This place has not changed much.

There use to be a stall selling fish ball noodles, the uncle was a very skinny man.


At the back of the house, there is this long staircase that will led to the ground floor. This photo was not taken at my grandma's house. My grandma house only has 3 storey, not so high. The tenants usually hang out their laundry to dry at the staircase. On the ground floor is a storage area where is dark and damp. Mother use to treaten to put me and my brother there if we are naughty. I use to be afraid of this place as i thought someones dead body might be store there. hee :)
