The Oreo Bar

THE OREO BAR

this happened on the 11th of August on a particular Tuesday.

I rushed down to BBDC after school and during lesson, i feel immensely hungry. i thought to myself that 'hey there is a petrol kiosk beside the school, why don't i go there and buy my orea cookie choc bar like old times when i was in Crescent'

(background info: used to go to the petrol kiosk beside Crescent with my bunch of mates and stuff ourselves with unhealthy food. and yes, i don't adore chocolate but that bar is an exception (other than my beloved toberlone and my favourite M&Ms) because i can munch on its orea bits PLUS its thin. in any case, my yearn for choc comes in at most once a month haha)

so i pray and pray for lesson to end. When lord & behold, lesson ended, i found my hands on the above product ASAP.

as i munched it at the busstop, it doesn't touch as good as I had imagined. is it the manufacturer? is it the change of packaging (that looked the same but is so much more easier to tear open)? is it because it is bought from some weird NTUC petrol kiosk and not Shell? and then i found myself munching it quickly just to 'finish' it off. (>.>)

It was then that i realized that sometimes when you look back to the past and you think about the happy feelings you had back then and you thought that perhaps you can just 'go back' even for a short while to feel the exact same euphoric feeling, you will realize that it may not be so afterall. Feelings could not be replicated across the same period of time and even if they do, it may just be so very briefly. It also could be the fact that maybe I did not as deeply love the orea bar as maybe the bubble tea.


So! I realized with a pang that dang, my childhood could not be retrieved. =x and moved on with life happily. trilala~
