chicken pox #44

ok, so you know that smell is the sense most associated with memory
and well i've always known it
but i was just like yeah yeah
just something i know
but i totally realised its true
i had a bath
and i have some pinetarsol bath oil that i have never used
and i used it
cos my skin has been kinda itchy and bug bites and stuff
and as soon as i poured it out
i remembered when i was five
when i had chicken pox
my babysitter (side note: yes sort of, i mean she did take me home from school everyday and stuff, but not as in the babysitter in the western way, more of an asian way, so it was this old lady my mum knew from church and she had many adult kids already and she constantly helps people take care of kids. funnily enough my uncle actually got married to one of her daughters a few years later (i think it was 6/7 years later, they weren't dating when i was babysat). and i was the flower girl for their wedding, and also when her son got married. let's just say i'm a very experienced flower girl. haha. ok, back on topic, so when i say babysitter i mean it in a family/close friend sort of way) well, when i had chicken pox
she must have bought pinetarsol for me to bathe in
cos i distinctly remember the smell.
like DISTINCTLY.
thus, i had a revelation that smell is really the most associated with memory.

the end.
