Episode summary
Yan Kit. A swimming complex that was once so popular, a two-hour limit had to be imposed on its visitors. What is left of it today is a place of abandonment that has been waiting for new life for almost a decade. Like the days of our youth when we felt invincible and believed that we could be anyone we wanted to be, many of us grow up to find that we have wearied ourselves out, and have lost this sense of the endless potential of life.

We're halfway through the series now! To everyone who has been following Unseen/Unsaid, have a hug and an awesome big thank you! :) Do leave us some hellos!

Episode summary
The playground is a place of magic for any child, a land where worlds are created to be anything an imagination can muster. Alas when age catches up with us, we grow distant from these places that used to be so dear to us as children. They are like our grandparents, who have sat quietly through the years – looking over us and watching us play, people whom we remember to be a big part of our lives when we were kids, but whom we sometimes forget about as we grow up and start to live our own lives.

Episode summary
This railway station has been on our soil for decades, but yet for the longest time, it did not belong to us. Despite running faithfully every day for more years than some of us can remember, we have always labelled it as foreign soil. Similarly, the many foreign workers that ply our land are always struggling to find their identity in a country they have looked to for hope, but could never call their own.

Episode summary
HDB flats are a ubiquitous sight in Singapore, but we do not pause to look at them, and realize that every block and estate has it own uniqueness. Within its walls, these flats hold the stories, hopes and dreams of many. They are just like your everyday, under appreciated housewives ­– someone so intimately close to our daily lives, yet someone whom we tend to take for granted.

Episode summary
These traditional bakeries/confectioneries have survived longer than most of their competitors into the twenty-first century, and only a handful of their kind remain in business still. Rain or shine, day or night, we can count on them to deliver the goods. The dedication, consistency and monotony of their craft is reflected in many of our working parents, who have chosen to give us the best selflessly, no matter how difficult the process of raising us may be.
