If you are Msia's 80s baby,read through this, 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 teeth during recess at primary school? had to hold plastic cups, line up with your classmates side by side and start brushing our teeth 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 cost 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 monitors...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 and would think of forwarding this to your old friends that you have known since forever... i'm sure they would have a huge smile on their face after reading this.....
p.s: if u feel u're one of them who experienced this, repost this to share it wif ur frens... ;)

Instead of email-ing it to others, I decided to share it with everyone... Man I love this POST!! I still remember those days where me and my cousins would lock ourselves up in the 'playroom' and play all sorts of games! From masak masak to master master, to town, school, and many other stuff our minds could think of... Come to think of it, we were really creative! haha... Nowadays, kids are like glued to the computers, PS3 (no longer PS), Nintendo DS and the other chunted COLOURED versions...
Remember ice and fire? and that ring-a-ring a roses or something... hahaha... Teng Teng also was a favourite past time we played... I seriously missed the good old days...
When I was in primary school, Std 6, my class teacher was really strict with us. I still remember she used to punish us whenever we did mistakes in our tatabahasa and karangan formats... One funny event that I will never forget was when she gave us our first ulangkaji test in class for BM... After we finished our test she said,'Ok. Tambah semua markah. Ada sesiapa yang gagal?'... No one stood up because we nobody failed... Then she rephrased her sentence to ,' Makna gagal saya adalah markah bawah 80.' We were all shocked of course... Like 99% of the class stood up except for one boy. lol... All queued up in the front of the class and had to place our hands on the teacher's table where we were 'chopped' with the 1m yellow wooden ruler... It did hurt a lot! But thanks to her, I got an A in my finals! haha... Thanks Cikgu Hafizah... =)
Gosh! I feel so old now... swts... Met up with my cousins the other day and what did we talk over dinner at Delicious?? Well, our childhood! What we used to do to past time when we were younger... Oh!! I remember when we used to collect stickers and had sooo many sticker books to organise the different types of stickers... haha... We have the pasar malam kind, furry, shiny shiny, laser stickers, and etc... We would trade them, kind of like sistem barter...
Go and meet ur with whoever u used to spend your time with when you were young. It's so fun reminiscing about the good old days... It will leave you with a large smile on your face =)
