Kids
June 13, 2010
Today as I walked along Bugis Junction, I saw – at the bus stop, an elderly with her young grandson (approx. 7 years old) sitting at the seat. I somehow felt my heart beats slower, felt touched when the grandson just took out his handphone, photographed his grandma and said: “Grandma, see? how does this look? you look great right? Come, let’s take a picture together…” Grandma shied away though.
And when I was about to board my incoming bus, the grandson switched on his ipod, (yes, his ipod) and Michael Jackson’s “Heal The World” was on! Then, he sang along with it. Kids nowadays, really up in technology. But what I was more surprised of, is that, kids are really expressive! Especially in today’s era.
“Are these two seats taken?” (with perfect English)
said a little Western girl with a smile (never fail with the eye contact)
And there I was gesturing and saying, yes, Go Ahead~
