Kids

LaLA..lalalaLAAAAAA

Last night, the Usual Suspects and Shob gathered at Suzie's Corner for a very late dinner after watching a series of short plays at our highschool (to which Han brilliantly directed one of them entitled "Room"). As we chowed down our food and drank cheap drinks, I could not help but feel overwhelmed from visiting the place which I used to refer as ISK"Hell".

It has been six years since we graduated! I shouted. Shit, we're old! We're almost thirty!

Immediately, Khaylis and Zales grumbled at my matter-of-factness, and told me to shut up. In order to reassure ourselves that we are indeed still very young, we went on to tap into our inner kid and reflect on how much we enjoyed watching great shows such as :

1) The Smurfs.
"Can't believe they even had a gay smurf," Khaylis said.
"Which one?" asked Zales.
"Vanity Smurf."

2) Transformers, and how much I wanted to buy the robot which had a tape-deck feature on its chest "because I thought if I bought that robot, I would get many robots with it. Was I wrong..."

3) Jem, and how Zales would make pink paper stars as earings, hoping that Synergy would change her clothes.

4) CareBears, and how I pointed out that I used to think that the animation was brilliant back then. "Now, I realised that the colors are too sugary, and what's with too much pink?!!"

5) Voltron, and how Khaylis and Zales always wanted to be the pink princess.

6) And how we secretly currently watch new shows like Sponge Bob, Lizzie Macguire, The Amanda Show, All That (old seasons) and That's So Raven.

It was 11 pm and was time to go. Can't believe tomorrow's Friday, I said. Don't wanna go to work... Because, deep in my heart, I would rather wake up in my pajamas, drink milk and eat sweet Oreos, and swith on the tv to watch great morning cartoons. Like how we all joyeously used to do.
