The ruler used to be transparent, after many many years (~25 years), yellow became its new dresscode. This ruler has been with me through most of the exams in school and even after school, just like the one which i had a few days ago.<\/p>\n<p>Together with it are the small size stapler, mechanical pencil lead box and the &#8216;usual&#8217; brand of eraser which the 1980s kids are familiar with! All these have been with me for more than ten year!<\/p>\n<p>Things change, people change and the years pass us by, it is these simple little things which made me look back and smile at the wonderful memories i&#8217;ve had in school.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/asimplehappiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140601-194505-71105527.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone \" src=\"http:\/\/asimplehappiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140601-194505-71105527.jpg\" alt=\"20140601-194505-71105527.jpg\" width=\"428\" height=\"321\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A question to you: do you have something which you have used for more than a decade?
