There's a saying "Never meet your heroes". We can update that to "Never Google your teen crushes". Laugh

mmm I remember this! it used to be 50 cents for a pack and it was actually considered quite expensive since 50 cents could also buy me a bowl of noodles back in primary school. Big Smile

Before JCube, we had Jurong Entertainment Centre. Always thought it was an iconic building of the west because of its colours and highly visible location.

I read the headlines of this article and was reminded of your post. Smile

Even the somewhat new JCube is going to disappear and something else will take its place.

Maybe a few years from now, people will be talking about how they miss JCube. Laugh

Straits Times just did a nice feature on the history of the MRT ticket/card, think some of you will enjoy it. Big Smile

I think EZ link cards will also be nostalgic soon given the move towards new payment types.
