My time capsule

The pictures below were taken on 1st Oct.  Back then, there were news about preparing a time capsule that will be opened in SG100 (http://news.asiaone.com/news/singapore/singaporeans-invited-choose-items-and-pen-letters-sg100-time-capsule)

I told Lynn and MIL very proudly that I have a time capsule of my own.  It is an old shoe box, that I use to keep sentimental stuff.  It was populated during my school days, and I have not added on anything after that.  The good thing about this box is that I can open it to browse through the content as and when I like.  Here's a tour of my time capsule!

Overview.  The orange container, which is a marriage cert holder, contains my parent's marriage cert.  When my dad moved out from my parent's Bishan flat home, he gave it to me for safe keeping for my mum.

This is the most 古董piece of item (excluding the 50 cent coin) in my box, and a very sentimental piece too.  A boy from P3 gave it to me (yr: 1983).  He gave me a love letter too, which should be somewhere else (I don't lose things easily). 
These are badges from primary school (brownies girl guide), secondary school badge and name tag, and JC choir badge
I kept this 50 cent coin because it says "1974". 
Some gifts from my secondary school and JC friend.  They don't mean much to me, but since they are in the box, I left them there.
A stuff toy from my secondary school best friend.  I got 2 more school boxes of stuff from her in my house. ....
A stack of post card, from the States, from my JC best friend.
Finally, the last input, from a friend from my Uni days.  A history that nobody, except my NTU roommate and a few course mates knew about.
 
( I just realised that I do not have an labels for my school time)
