Do you remember how when we were young, we play the so-called 'pop-pop' where you threw little paper-wrapped stones and it makes 'popping' sounds? I never knew how they work, really XP
Anyway, we bought for the kids to get into the Chinese New Year feel.
The proper way of playing:
1 Open box.
2 Tear open plastic wrapping.
3 Rumble fingers through hay and hold onto a pea-like thing wrapped in paper.
4 Throw it on the floor.
5 Scream happily when it pops.
But kids nowadays, they think that it is too boring. So they did these instead:
1 Open box.
2 Tear open plastic wrapping.
3 Rumble fingers through hay and hold onto a pea like thing wrapped in paper.
4 Pinch the pea-like thing between your fingers.
5 Scream happily when it pops.
They have other alternatives as well; putting it under the armpit, stomping on it bare foot, biting it.
No joke. Those little people of mine actually did them.
What has become of kids nowadays?
But upon realising that two of them watched Totoro uplift my faith in them a little. Just a little. Dude! Those WERE the days!!
Today I had dinner outside with the extended family, though not complete YET. ShiIan and JoLynn! How have they grown. I don't remember seeing ShiIan that tall when I saw him last year. Man, he's almost taller than me now. And he's not even 12 yet!!! I'm gonna keep this distance from him, so that they can't see that he's almost as tall as I am.
I was watching the music competition in Taiwan where our fellow Malaysian is competing. Was giving her support and all but all the little people ever did the whole time was imitating the singers and screaming and laughing and making fun of them. LOL. How ignorant. Yesterday, they even had singing sessions! Now, let's see how THEY fare.
Okay lah, they're good
