I was talking abt childhood memories on my way back from sch v wanxin. Coincidentally i read this from my fren.. edit to suit my own childhood...

we grew up watching Transformers, Doraemon who speaks malay (TV3), Woody Woodpecker,Chipmunks, Mickey Mouse, Jem, Mask,Ninja Turtles,Ultraman n not forgettin POWER RANGERSn BUGS BUNNY!!!
had to brush our teeths during recessat primary school? had to hold plasticcups, line up with your classmates sideby side and start brushing our teethsat some open area... or maybe near somedrain??
do you still remember that we had'dentist' rooms where we had to haveourteeths check?not to forget our 'program minum susu'in primary school.. everybody issupposeto buy like cartons of milk that costed30 cents.. and you would see everyonedrinking it everyday...its d UHTmilk
the teachers who would want to punishus must use yellow rulers to hit us onour palms?? 1 metre length..that a bowl of mihun soup or some souponly costed 40 cents at the schoolcanteen... add one fishball u hv to pay 10cents more...
went to some sundry shop near theschool or to the 'roti' man waiting outsideourschools so that we can buy junk foodlike chickedees, mamee, ding dang withsome toys in it, 'Ti Kam', ice-creamandwe would play games like monopoly, uno,old maid, and all other card games likethat...
another fun time would be duringPendidikan Jasmani. the boys wouldplay football while the girls wouldplay netball... and it would be like wewere playing in the world cup...but of course. the best would be mainguli, batu seremban, bottlecaps, ice-cream sticks, 'Pepsi Colaone-two-three', Cops and Robbers, mainkejar-kejar duduk,getah... and for thenot so active, those kind of 'bookgames' where we would use buku latihanto draw and ask our friends to play...

When I visited the Toy Museum, I also recall many of my childhood. My favourite show was Power Ranger, favourite game is "shoot rubber eraser" and "Pepsi-Cola". And guys usually played Digimon.
Wa I realized that Johor life is quite different than KL life other than those in front of television. =p
I had a very funny childhood.
When I was in standard 1, I guess I was quite hardworking coz I managed to enter the second best class in the next year. Believe it anot, I actually remembered some of my standard 1 classmates and 2 of them have been my secondary school classmates for 4-5 years (basically every year). One has been quite close coz we play games like crazy.
But I don't watch TV3 Doraemon ler, I only read Doreamon comic, damn the stupid book la, I'm still reading comic now. It gives me horrible textual memory and incomprehansible malay speaking ability.
Ya ya I did remember brushing my teeth on the ground.
I don't remember dentist room in my primary school. I had a very effective painless cool and sweat way of plugging my teeth. When my teeth starts to move, I will chew chewing gum and that really helps as anastatic so that when you put the gum directly on top of the teeth, and press it hard, only mild pain is experience and once you removed it, the teeth will follow the chewing gum to be removed. Imagine I removed 3 teeth with this method. Cheap (20 cent only), effective (sure can pluge one), tasty (chewing gum ler), healthy (you think anastatic is health ah), and fun (it's chewing gum!!).
But one thing i would like to mention, I didn't eat as much junk fun as other people. That's why I never develop the habbit of obssesive junk food comsumption. (Hey please, how I maintain my body so that I can avoid fat at all time)
FYI it is 3.5 inches floopy disk....
Haha I still remember my class duty roaster when i was in primary school. ALL THE SAME arranging tables and chairs. Very good ler. Except in standard 6 la, I was the ketua kesihatan, where I actually scold people for not doing their job, and I was the only person who can enter class freely during breaks =)
