Elementary pa ako noon as I recalled, and nothing excited me more than rushing home after school to catch Meteor Garden. It was around 3 or 5 pm in the afternoon if I remembered. My youngerself lived for those afternoons, parked in front of the TV with my fellow friends, my family, neighbors. We are all thrilled to watch it. Super seryos namin lahat. Lahat totok na totok sa magyayari. Sa mga bawat galaw and the story. Sabay, miryenda on the sude pa. Pancit Canton, soft drinks, bread or even crackers pa. Wala pang Facebook, Twitter, TikTok or not even Instagram and Netflix that time. No Google to spoil the plot. And best of all? No major life stress. Just pure, unfiltered happiness. Life was really super good back then. Pure happiness overload. Which makes it even sadder to hear about Barbie Hsu, our beloved Shan Cai, at just 48 due to pneumonia. She was such a huge part of my childhood, and Meteor Garden will always hold a special place in my heart because of her. Thank you for the memories, Barbie. Thank you for rocking my childhood. Rest in peace.🥲🤍🕊️
