Things I've long forgotten

Guys, if you havent joined facebook, you might have missed out on some fun stuff which I admit even a 27-year-old like me will find childish, but just can't stop indulging in them.

Remember the retro games like Pacman? you can actually play them there, and it really is fun to be playing a game as old as you, with memorable moments coming back.. I remember the first time I saw PacMan was at Genting Highlands Arcade. Everyone was changing their notes into 20 cents (ringgit) and jamming in those PacMan machines. Of course there were other games like Contra and stuff, it really is a challenge recalling what I have played when I was 8 years old. Remember I spent a 50 cents on a mini-train which moves around in an 8-figure track, and it went on for 30 minutes without stopping! Nowadays when you play these kiddy ride, 2 minutes is all they give you, and halfway through the song, the vehicle will stop.

I am particularly impressed in the applications add-ons, and never knew that PHP programming can be so powerful. All credits to the staff who did it.

Also happened to find a group that was really interesting: "if you were born in the 80's in Singapore". http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2719435179
Here you can capture memories of the 80's, like the cartoons in those days, the panini stickers we buy to stick on the album book, the snacks we eat (Kaka esp.), and the electronic handheld games we loved (Western Bar!). So for people who want to collect all these stuff, you can probably post some comments there.
