You know, some things that almost make me laugh are how the world is changing when I look back at what we used to do in the past. I'm not an ancestor, but I can see the significant changes from my childhood to now.

When it comes to technology, we have various home appliances that make household chores easier. But just imagine how we used to manage back then. Take ironing clothes, for example.

I remember when I was in school, we could only afford a box iron (don't let the name deceive you—it's basically a charcoal iron). At night, I would go to my neighbor's kitchen to find charcoal so I could iron my school uniform. We did have electric irons, but most of the time, we would iron our clothes at our neighbor's house. However, you can't always go to someone else's home just to iron clothes.

This charcoal iron brought its own set of challenges. The charcoal could stain your white clothes at any moment!

Now, with electric irons, you can control the temperature. Has an iron ever burned your clothes before? 😂
