I remember learning typing on the big type writer, you need to press hard and the sound is very nice. To next line, ding ding, need big action lol. We learned it at Sec 3 I think, also learning short hand..like want to become secretary like that

Also study bookkeeping? The upper part of the ribbon in the type writer is black and the lower part is red?

Wah... your school taught you how to type and do short hand? So good. I had to learn to type by myself. No need for short hand... used to be able to write as illegibly as a doctor.

I didn't study bookkeeping then.. I m not sure on the black and red.. cant recall all even tho we went for exam for typing. I remember the typewriter that we learned at centre was big one and subsequently when mom bought me one hmm so much smaller..and think it was a beige color.

Not school..learn from outside. Yea, I think there was a period I thought I want to become a secretary. Btw, shorthand I don't remember at all now.

I went for some kinds of Pitman exam for typing before...very long time ago. During that time, most girls would study a few commercial subjects before came out to work. I even studied shipping documentation and inwards and outwards bills (Letter of Credits) in banking sector from some commercial schools. One school was in Bukit Merah Central, just same block with the polyclinic.

What is your interest? You want to work in a hotel? In a pharmacy or in an office as a secretary?
