BACK IN THE DAY ...

BACK IN THE DAY ...

Close your eyes... And go back... 

*Before the Internet or the MIRC 

*Before semi automatics and weed 

*Before PlayStation 4 or X-box 

*Before the 5 hours of homework you put off every night... 

..Way back... 

*I'm talkin' bout hide and go seek at dusk. 

*Police and Thief 

*Cycling with buddies

*Kites 

*Kunda Kundi 

*Guli

*Hula Hoops 

*Chopping

*Happy Meals 

*Getting the privelage to sit in the front seat of the car 

Wait... 

*Watching' Saturday Morning cartoons

*Like Thundercats,He Man,Woodywood Pecker, Tom & Jerry and etc

*Or what about spirit of the coin,batu seremban,bottle covers and etc

*Who could forget Donkey,Snap and etc

*Or the teenage mutant ninja turtles, scooby doo, and Power Rangers, 

*Christmas morning... 

*Your first day of school 

*Bedtime Prayers and Goodnight Kisses 

*Climbing trees 

*Getting an ice cream off the ice cream uncle,sticky candy from the uncle on the bike and hammer,junk food from roti bhai uncle and etc 

*A million mosquito bites and sticky fingers 

*Jumpin' down the steps 

*Jumpin' on the bed 

*Pillow fights 

*Runnin' till you were out of breath 

*Laughing so hard that your stomach hurt and you almost peed your pants 

*Laughing so hard that you did pee your pants 

*Being tired from playin' all day 

*Your first crush... 

*Rainy days at school meant playing "Pepsi Cola (Stepping on shoes),tic tac toe and etc 

Remember that? 

I'm not finished yet... 

*Big Gulp from 7eleven and milkshakes from Mcdonalds 

*Giving your friends a ride on your handlebars or spokes 

*Wearing your new shoes on the first day of school 

*Class Field Trips 

*When getting high was swinging on the swing-set 

*When Rm1 seemed like a million, and another 50cents is a Miracle. 

*When your parents took you to McDonalds and you were so cool. 

*When Toys r Us overuled the "mall" 

I want to go back to the time when...

*Decisions were made by going "bird stones and rock" 

*Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming, "do over!" 

*"Race issue" meant arguing about who ran the fastest. 

*Money issues were handled by whoever was the banker in "monopoly" 

*Catching fireflies could happily occupy an entire evening 

*It wasn't odd to have two or three "best" friends. 

*Saying cuss words were referred to the "F, B or S - word" or h-e double hockey sticks. 

*Being old, referred to anyone over 18. 

*The only real heart break you had was when your mom wouldn't buy you that new toy 

*Nobody was prettier than Mom 

*Nobody was cooler than Dad 

*Scrapes and bruises were kissed and made better 

*It was a big deal to finally be tall enough to ride the "big people" rides at the amusement park. 

*Going to movies at the theatre was a dream come true. 

*Abilities were discovered because of a "truth or dare" 

*Spinning around, getting dizzy and falling down was cause for giggles.
