I'm feeling a little nostalgic....:rolleyes:

What are some of the things you miss from your childhood? Here's a few of mine:

1. I miss playing blind man bluff with my sis and bro
2. I miss having water fights with all the neighbourhood kids
3. I miss midnight munchies with my dad
4. Climbing trees and playing hide and seek

*Note to all: There will be no fighting, rudeness or petty bickering.... DO NOT SPOIL MY HAPPY MOMENTS!!!!*

We all spent so long impatiently waiting, thinking the day would NEVER end, and now I can't think of anything better.

I know a bear that gives awesome bear hugs.... :rolleyes: Roh_Chris where are you?????????????

Things I like about Wisebeardman:

1. He has a weird AV
2. He is rather funny in his replies
3. He has a dry sense of humour which btw, I appreciate and love
4. He participates in threads without giving away too much of the person behind the computer screen

There... it may not make up for the words and actions of others in your past but it's a start:)

Dude lighten up. In the 32 years of living on this earth, not one of those days provided one good memory? Seriously. Come on.

*Gives a bear hug to wisebeardman* There you go, brother! :D
Sorry I broke your bone. I'll find a quack on CC to take care of that. ;)

My childhood memories -
1) Having ink fights with my unruly bunch of friends. Yes, we used to smear blue ink (which we used for our fountain pens) on each other. My parents used to wonder why I sometimes came home with ink on my shirt.

2) Playing hide-and-go-seek with my church friends while all our parents were doing some work. We used to clamber over trucks, cars and trees and hide even inside unused drains.

3) Playing with my box of LEGO and Funskool toys.

4) Having a bruised knee or elbow. I would chase my friends over the classroom furniture, in the restrooms or on the playground. Once we knocked over a huge can of water and the entire corridor was full of water. What did we do then? We made paper boats.

I was such a naughty kid in school that my parents dreaded coming for the 'Parent-Teacher meetings'. :p

Being more social with schoolkids and playing games like man hunt or digging up for worms (for the most part I was a total tomboy as a kid). :p I get mad when seeing kids using these gadgets as their childhood past time or worse for when the parents just want their kids to shut up in a public place.

From a Lauren Talley song:

"So many things I thought would bring me happiness
Some dreams that are realities today
Such an irony, the things that mean the most to me
Are the memories that I've made along the way"


My memories, hmm...

Getting wood for the stove. Dad always wanted me to get slabs, but they got harder to get to as the winter went on. Why did he buy so many sticks if all he wanted was slabs?

Mom making chicken-&-dressing. I always bugged her to put more sage in it. One day she got tired of it and gave me a small pan to wind up with as much sage as I wanted. She made me eat it too. I never, ever, ever bugged her about that again.

The whipped cream incident. My brother was confident he could eat two cans of whipped cream. He was so confident that my mother bought two cans, shot them both into a bowl and let him have at it. There was a lot left over... but I and sis got to finish what he couldn't eat.

My first grade teacher. She actually cared that we learn something. I would always fiddle-fart around for most of the day, then do all my work at the last minute. One day my estimates were wrong and I didn't get finished in time. She made me stay and finish, then she drove me home herself.

For some reason I remember a metal 50-gallon drum that was in the yard. I turned it over on its side, got on the top and "walked" it all over the yard.

The stilts... I wish I still had a pair of stilts. I could walk for hours on stilts. This skill has no practical application but it was fun for some reason I still can't explain.
