5 things I miss about my Childhood
Long long ago, when dinosaurs used to roam the earth, Wanna Be PhD and Jen had tagged me to write this meme. So ladies and gentlemen here are the top five things I miss about my childhood:
1.) Ability to Dream
As a child, I was able to dream. Dreams that werent rooted in reality. Dreams that were obstructed by viability. Dreams that werent gauged against probability. Dreams then were just that, dreams.
2.) Innocence
Though this one has been to done to death, it is still on top of my list. Remember the times when we could take things on their face value without having to worry about what it REALLY means? Remember when you could take compliment from someone without having to wonder if it was going to be followed by a “but” or if the person was actually looking to put in a request soon?
3.) Ease of please
As a kid all it took to make me reach the zenith of extacy was a candy bar and an icecream. Honestly, give me a candy bar, and I was the happiest kid on the block for the whole day. Today, I dont think even a personal jet would suffice.
4.) Sleeping under the moon
As a child, I used to spend my vacation in my maternal grandparents place. The whole family used to sleep under the open sky in the middle of the front lawn. Someone or the other always had a story to tell. Now, the whole place is a concrete mess.
5.) My Stickers
During my formative years, I used to frantically collect stickers. There were 3742 of them. They got lost when my parents moved to a different city about 6 years ago. I have landed myself in hot water quite a few times trying to create a “wall paper” of stickers.
last but not least, I miss not being told that I suck coz I didnt write a meme :-p
Lets see.. I tag Hulai, Vixen, CompassioNAT, and Anastasia.

Here are the 5 things I miss, even though u probably don’t care. It’s Friday I’m bored so cut me a break. 1)Laying on the concrete in a bathing suit when we just got out of the pool. The concrete was so hot and we were so cold. 2)riding my bike with no hands every where I went without fear of being killed by motorists 3)boys and the way they used try to fumble to hold my hand on the way back from playing “Truth or Dare” at Kevin’s house 4) “Truth or Dare” at Kevin’s house. 5)band-aids fixed everything that hurt
