I remember when me and my childhood friends were playing 'engklek' *I don't know what is it in English :p tell me if you know, kay?* At that time, not only the girls around my age but also the boys were gathered together playing that traditional child's play. It was fun, my childhood back then. Everyday we used to play together, laugh together.
But time goes by so quickly. We're all grown up. None of us gathered together like before. All of us have our own activities. Some with their schools, others with their works. Only the boys (so did my lil' brother) are still in contact. Every midnight they usually have a chitchat at my cousin's stall.
So, uh, when I was remembering all of those memories, I felt proud of my childhood. Why? Because nowadays, only a few of neighbor's children would gather around and playing those traditional plays. Every afternoon filled with the noise of the children in my neighborhood back then. But now? It's quiet. Every child are busy playing with their Playstation or Nintendo or Xbox or whatever the name of those things.
See the picture above? Yeah, that's me playing 'engklek' when I was attended my niece's wedding in Linggau, on January 2nd this year. Me and my-sister-to-be-in-law were laughing out loud while playing it. Even my mom and my little niece wanted to join us although we didn't remember anymore the rules of this game, hahaha.
Blahhh, I miss that time, I miss my childhood. But it's difficult to catch up together again with them. Sometimes I wish I could go back to that time. Enjoying the childhood and never think about adulthood, haha. Why we have to grow up? Why don't we just be a kid forever? Why we have to be adults while adults sometime act like children? *peter pan syndrom =P* No no no, that's selfish, spoiled girl!
OK, we HAVE to grow up. ALL of US, not only me myself. Let's grow to be the best adults ever.
Everlasting love for u,
