CHILDHOOD

Reading this from Fred's, it brought lots of memories coursing through my mind. It reminds me of those carefree, worry-less days and when every small thing is an adventure waiting to be discovered.

I remember when Tora (cheap toy in box + like 9 ketul of chocolate coated biscuit) was first introduced. and how excited I was when Dad brought me to town (small town of Song, Kapit). We walked from our home to the town and Dad bought me Tora (a G.I. Joe type figure inside) and a dress for the school concert. Bear in mind that money was rather tight in those years, so the treats were a rare luxury for me.

I remember how disappointed Mum was when she saw what I did to my new homemade dress (Sorry, mak) . Being a tomboy-ish girl, I ripped the dress to rags within 5 hours. That's the last time Mom made me waer a dress at home. Heheh

I remember when I punched the dentist. Not sorry for that. She gave me a lifelong phobia for anything to do with dentist.

I remember when I was unjustly caned ten times by Mdm Susie Wong with a rattan cane as big as a thumb. She was angry at my Dad (Dad was the headmaster). I swear I'll cane her if I ever meet her again. Biar dia rasa...

I remember when Sis and I used to quarell all the time whenever she's back from her boarding school. When she's away, I will be pining and missing her. But when she's home, like cats and dogs.

I remember how my brothers used to 'manja' and also bully me at the same time. Still does :)

When Dad and Mom forced me to drink the vile yucky herbal whatever to cure me :(

When Dad force me to makan nasi. Drama crying session every night :(

When they force me to makan ubat... until now, still does :(

How I hated any food that's green. Sayur lah tu...

How I cannot play atas rumput due to my extremely sensitive skin. :(

Mandi kat padang banjir :)

Nestum + Sirap

Chased by the turkey

My dogs and cats
