昨天，我在新戏院观看了《悄逝的记忆II》。这是一部关于林厝港区的一部纪录片。 在朋友告诉我片名之后，我连故事摘要都没看就一口答应他一起观看这部纪录片了。
《悄逝的记忆II》… “这部纪录片应该是讲述作者所消逝的记忆吧？”我心想着。可是看了之后，我觉得如果把这部纪录片命名为《即将消逝的记忆？》，应该会更贴切…
影片制作者翁燕萍在2006年获知政府即将在林厝港兴建度假屋和香薰治疗浴(Spa)设置后便再次回到林厝港，去了解这个发展项目和农场经营者们的心情。
在观看这部纪录片时，作者所给我的感觉是，她想保留童年记忆中拥有乡土气息的林厝港，不想让它变成另一个人工景点。可是，我的疑问是…她记忆中的林厝港已经不在了，她想保留的是什么？她制作这部纪录片的意图又是什么？新加坡地少人多，而且政府还想把人口增加到六百五十万人。可供农业用途的土地应该很少吧？把休闲与农业综合在一起也不见得是件坏事？
很欣慰的是，作者在制作这部纪录片时，终于领悟到她必须面对现实的残酷。她终于接受了事实 - 她记忆中的林厝港已经不在了，不应该那么的执着。
我想面对现实应该是唯一途径吧？我童年记忆中的笈岜小学已变成了办公楼，就读的达善中学旧校舍和前国家图书馆也被夷为平地。滨海湾也已人去落空。我们的集体回忆就那么的消失吗？当然，这一切的变迁是我们无法停止和控制的…
为何不把记忆平凑起来，让下一代看一看我们所经历过的新加坡呢？
I am now doing a practical for the Civil Service College's New Media Communication course that I am attending at the Singapore Management University. The assignment given to us was to snap some pictures in 1.5 hours and to create a blog post. Well, the "adverturous" Ah Seng decided to go all the way to Esplanade to do some photo shooting.
I came across this mini exhibition, with the use of Crocs, at the underground passage which connects Esplanade and Citylink. Cute isn't it? They are done by a group of kids and teenagers, I think.
Dark clouds were forming by the time I stepped out from the SMU Administration Building and by the time I reached Raffles City, it was already drizzling. When I was walking back, it started to rain pretty heavily... Ok.. I snap this video because we need to upload 1 video online... hee :P
More pictures will be uploaded on victorgraphy this evening :)
