.:: 幼い頃; Those Childhood Days ::.

Mood: Feeling nostalgic over the past.

Is it just me, or does everyone have

mixed feelings before going to college?

Before, I would've never noticed

that going to college was such a big step forward.

I mean, from the eyes of a 6 year old,

it's just like advancing to the next step in life,

like moving from primary to secondary school.

If so, then it should be relatively easy right?

Though I'm not against the idea of going

to college, (pretty excited actually),

at the same time, a small part of me

is hesitant and wants to stay at home.

Guess a child still exists within me somewhere,

I'm already thinking about how homesick

 I'll be when I'm there. Haha.

Though I do get the feeling that I won't be that

homesick once I adapt to college life,

I do know that college will change me,

in more ways than one.

So anyways, yesterday after packing

(in other words, adding a few more stuff into

my half-full lugage), me and my sister

youtubed all those cartoons we watched when

we were younger (like when she was 7 and I was 2).

There were so many cartoon titles that I have almost forgotten,

but once the opening song played, I could

remember the tune. :)

Like for example:

1. Where is Carmen Sandiego?

2. SWAT Kats

3. Double Dragon

4. Kimba the White Lion! :P

5. Ghost busters

6. Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers

(Okay this is not a cartoon, but I was obsessed with

Power Rangers once-- figurines, costumes etc)

In fact, I still remember my favourite rangers;

Tommy (White) and Kimberly (Pink)

Yes, I was a Power Rangers nut :D

7. Mummies Alive

8. Duck Tales

9. Scooby-Doo!

10. Gargoyles

(This one appears to be a more recent version)

God I used to be a huge fanatic of this series.

I remembered mimicking the way they walk

and stuff- haha!

Well, those were 10 cartoons that I used to watch in

the past, not including all those Disney classics;

Lion King, Bambi, Snow White etc

I miss them all so much!

In fact, I missed Gargoyles so much that I practically

watched 6 whole episodes on youtube

yesterday night and I'm continuing this morning. :D

Yes, the wonders of cartoons.

It makes me feel like building a time machine to

go back. But then again, who says that

we have to be 6 year-olds to love

all the cartoons that I mentioned above?

Guess I've got to quote Aya;

I can cry all I like, but I can never return

to the past. Even though I've become like this,

I'm still me. I want to like the 'me' that I am right now.

(Tears still threaten to well up whenever I

re-watch or even listen to 1 Litre of Tears' OST.

Yes, it was THAT touching.)

Well, UCSI, here I come.

Not as an adult, not as a teenager, not as a child.

Just as Me. Because that's all that I wanna be.
