we grew up watching Transformers,
Thundercats, Woody Woodpecker,
Chipmunks, Mickey Mouse, Jem, Mask,
Ninja Turtles, Voltron, Baja Hitam,
Ultraman n not forgettin POWER RANGERS
n BUGS BUNNY!!!and anderra yippa mice?
:), McGyver ?
had to brush our teeths during recess
at primary school? had to hold plastic
cups, line up with your classmates side
by side and start brushing our teeths
at some open area… or maybe near some
drain??
do you still remember that we had
‘dentist’ rooms where we had to have
our
teeths check?
not to forget our ‘program minum susu’
in primary school.. everybody is
suppose
to buy like cartons of milk that costed
30 cents.. and you would see everyone
drinking it everyday…its d UHT
milk…
the teachers who would want to punish
us must use yellow rulers to hit us on
our palms?? 1 metre length..
that a bowl of mihun soup or some soup
only costed 50 cents at the school
canteen…
went to some sundry shop near the
school
or to the ‘roti’ man waiting outside
our
schools so that we can buy junk food
like chickedees, mamee, ding dang with
some toys in it, ‘Ti Kam’, ice-cream
and
we would play games like monopoly, uno,
old maid, and all other card games like
that…
another fun time would be during
Pendidikan Jasmani. the boys would
play football while the girls would
play netball… and it would be like we
were playing in the world cup…
but of course. the best would be main
guli, batu seremban, bottlecaps, ice-
cream sticks, ‘Pepsi Cola
one-two-three’, Cops and Robbers, main
kejar-kejar duduk,getah… and for the
not so active, those kind of ‘book
games’ where we would use buku latihan
to draw and ask our friends to play…
do you remember the ice-cream tubes
which are actually ice and colouring
that are sold for 10 to 20 cents.. the
colourful ones.. where you usually bite
off the top to glup it down.orange
tastes b best..(pop-ice)
what about days when we felt like doing
naughty things such as folding papers
so small to make ‘lastik’ amd shoot
each other… how about throwing
chalks??
back then, micheal jackson was just
turning white.. and still had albums
coming out.. compared to CD’s, we were
listening to tapes that sold for RM9.90
…
in computer class, we were still using
black and white computer moniters..
played ‘Atari’… maybe SEGA or
NINTENDO..
well, are we all getting older or what?
1) if you understand what you have read
and you are smiling…
2) we have friends from school that are
already married…
3) we shake our heads everytime we
see high school students fussing about
their handphones in school..
4) we don’t hang on phone with our
friends for hours a day talking about
nothing…
5) when we meet back with our friends
from time to time, we feel excited and
happy talking about old times, the
funny ‘adventures’ or stories that we
experienced as a kid..
6) last but not least, that when you
read this, you would think of all the
happy & sad memories that you have
experienced when you were still a kid…
