The Good Old Days Im dedicating this post to the late 70's and early 80's babies, read this shit and im sure you'll give yourself a fart on your face after reading it. Here we go boys and girls........ Signs that you are a late 70's or early 80's baby : - You grew up watching G-Force, He-Man, Transformers, Thundercats, Silver Hawk, Woody Woodpecker, Chipmunks and Mickey Mouse. Not to forget Ninja Turtles, Mask, Smurfs and Voltron too. - Girls watched Japanese cartoon like My Little Pony, "Xiao Tian Tian", "Huan Xian Zi" etc. - You grew up brushing your teeth with a mug in primary school after recess. - You squatted by the drain with all your classmate beside you, and brushed your teeth with a colourful mug. - Remember the days when the school nurse comes with a list for the dentist appointment, the sound of the drilling when your friend has a fill in his tooth. - You remember the packets of milk we get in primary school to encourage us to drink more milk ( it only cost 30cents per pack ). - In secondary school, girls go to the libary to borrow their favourite romance storybook. - In secondary school, girls altered their school shirt to shorten it and guys will go to tailor make their school trousers to the then fashionable "baggy pants". - During primary school days, the teacher will punish you using a ruler to hit your palm. - A bowl of noodles soup cost only 30cents in primary school days. - When you were in primary school, girls like to go to the bookshop to buy cute stuff such as animal erasers, various shape sharpeners, colorful notebook etc. - Hankyu Jaya, Great Wall, Yaohan deparmental stores used to be a favourite hangout for families during weekends. - In secondary school days, you buy the Bata TM Turbo or Pallas Jazz school shoes. - Internet? Email? What the fuck is that? - CDs? What the...? Cassete tapes were the norm. Movie tickets used to cost less than 5 bucks. - You never forget "Ti Kam" - When exams are over, the board game ( eg. Monopoly, Donkey, Transportation Comparison Card ) and hand held video games will be all over the class. - Your favourite sound is the bell. The ice cream man, the cream that tops Haagen Daaz. - Another bell is the recess bell, a time to get away from school work and eat the shit out of it. - Another time when there is no bell but all guys will anxiously wait for it...the PJ ( Pendidikan Jasmani ), PE time ( for football ). - Your favourite childhood games were playing "Guli" ( marbles ), five stones, five bottle cover, zero point, catching, Pepsi Cola One 2 Three and Police & sentry. - The best thirst quencher of all time is the yummy colourful ice tubes you can buy from provision shops for only 10cents. To eat them, break the tab and suck the shit out of it while holding the freezing tube. - All girls have a girl doll / strawberry shortcake, my little pony, pound puppy, while all boys have a soldier figurine or a rubber band catapult that shoots the shit out of everybody. - Once was the era whereby ice cream sticks were valueable items, then came the paper aircrafts, chalk fights. - Some even used matches to shoot and burn kids lanterns during MoonCake Festival. - And your favourite holiday was Lunar New Year. New clothes, Angpows, shopping , junk food and family outings. The majority of students in universities today were born in 1987 / 88, they are called "Youth". - For them, they have never heard of the song "We are the world, we are the children".And the "Uptown Girl" they know is by Westlife and not Billy Joel. - For them, there have always been only one Germany and only one Vietnam. - AIDS exist since they were born. - CD exists since they were born. - Michael Jackson is already whitened. - John Travolta is always round in shape and they cant imagine how this fat guy could be a dancing God. - They believe that Spiderman and Incredible Hulk are just new films. - They can never imagine a black and white screen for a computer. - They never know what is Atari or "Game & Watch". - They cant believe a black and white television ever existed and they dont even know how to switch on a TV without a remote control. - And they never understand how we can go out without a mobile phone when we were in university. Lets check if you're getting old : - You understand what was written above and you fucking smile. - Most of your secondary school friends are getting married. - You are always suprised to see small children playing comfortably with computer. - When you see teenagers with mobile phones, you shake your head. - You spend less and less time talking on phone with your friends daily. - When you meet your old friends from time to time, you talk about the good old days, repeating again and again all funny stories you experienced together. Print this post, frame it up on the wall and read it every morning when you wake up. [2:23 AM] |
