Before the days of Gardenia, we used to buy our bread from the local bread shops.

A picture of the old old long gone Bread Factories. It has been left like this for the longest time!

Urrghh. Not something that we should be very proud of, but in today’s The Star Online, at http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2007/4/22/parliament/17516265&sec=parliament (while the link still exist) there’s a news report.

Guess what, I did not check the name of this block now. Is it still Blok Budiman? It was during my time. I realise I did not take a photo of the front where it had the block name.

This is from the back, where at my time, the blok baru is located

This is the back stairs.

This used to be class rooms, looks like it is used for other things now.

Further front, the Koperasi is now located here!

Zoom in view of the Koperasi.

The front staircase. Arrgh.. we used to climb up with out heavy school bags.

Suddenly thought of Mrs Wang Lock Soon. My English and Arts teacher while I was studing in this block. I think it was Form 1 then.
