Feeling this on a Monday
Want some sun, want to get outside, want to take some photos, want to see my friends. Been sick and miserable :<

We hear the playback and it seems so long ago
Yesterday I got to hear this tape of my brother & I when we were really little, probably when he was five and I was two. My ahgong recorded us on this actual tape recorder!! I don’t have the slightest memory of this machine and never knew it existed, so imagine my face when my ahgong plugged everything in and pressed play. I didn’t think it would work, how dare I. Then two seconds in, I hear this voice which I don’t recognize as my brother’s. But it’s him and I couldn’t stop laughing – he was singing rhymes and it just doesn’t go with who he has grown into now, heh.
This short clip begins with me wailing and if you listen closely, you can hear my brother laughing in the background. Then you hear my ahgong laughing too, in real life. He goes on to ask in mandarin, whose voice is that and I say, I don’t know. He hears my brother’s voice and says it’s “kor kor” (which means elder brother). My brother goes on to say “mei mei” (that’s me) and I say “kor kor” (which is what I still call him today) then he asks if I wanna sit MRT which is the term for our train system here.
Pretty fucking amazing.
