End of an Era: Visiting Boh Geh Uncle Canteen One Last Time

Sitting outdoor under the trees As bus 117 rolled through Seletar, Singapore's modern aerospace hub, I took a moment to just look out the window and enjoy the unusually serene greenery. My destination was 398 Piccadilly,  home to the legendary Boh Geh Uncle Canteen or Canteen 398 . I wouldn't have rushed down this week if not for my dad. He had forwarded a picture of the canteen from a friend's group chat with a urgent reminder: 'Go visit and record down the place before it's gone!' Since I live nearby, I knew I couldn't miss out (or FOMO maybe). With their last day of operation officially set for 18 September 2026 , I headed out on its final week to experience this rustic piece of history for the first and one last time on 14 September 2026 . Will never see such sights in Singapore again Stepping off the bus onto Piccadilly felt like stepping straight into a time machine. Hidden within distance from Seletar Camp,   Boh Geh Uncle Canteen  isn't just an o...

I'm yet again...

I finally receive my membership card and vouchers today... Thank God!  Can start stocking up more of Eu Yan Sang products.
Have consumed Gold Label Bak Foong Pill few years back after Mummy's advice.  Then my guy also started taking their products like Heat Expulsion Granules, Ning Shen Pills etc.  Whatever.  It did good to us so just continue with it.  I guess with the vouchers, I can buy my pills.  Finish already!  Hmm...

I paid a small sum to join their member.  At first, I feel silly but if this is one of the ways to good health, I don't mind. Apart from my usual exercising regime, diet and personal self being play a part...

Time flies... Less than 2 months, is 2012.  Is yet again, a time to spare on New Year resolution.  Well... Will do it real soon... Meanwhile I bought a planner for 2012-2013. Hahah.. Just nice. If I'm accepted by SIM RMIT, this is of some good use for 2 years, which is the duration of my course.
I used to buy one every year during my poly days. So it seems like a tradition for me, personally.  My colleague said nowadays human use iPhone instead of pocket planner.  I was thinking then if that is the case, for what companies come out with all these.  That's yet another social problem.  Everything from iPhone.  24-7.  Days pass and human will forget how things started out initially.  Anyway, I am someone who likes to indulge in reminiscence.  Like I have MP3 player.  If I get myself a iPhone, what will be the fate of this MP3 player?  It has been with me for coming 2 years.  Haiz... So I shall continue using it.  I am a weirdo too.  I like to have my own way.  So even if others tease me, I don't give a damn.  Cos there is stubborness in me. Wahahahhaha... Good Night World.  Is Friday in 34 mins time.
