childhood antics

we all have those unforgettable (or even recently discovered hidden chapter) childhood years that we're either proud of, can't believe happened, or just plain wish we could scrape said part from our history.

isi dong kalian tendy & lalat kalo lagi senggang! kapan2 kalo ketemu versi tulis tangannya buat koleksi eike~~ total point-nya bebas mo dikit/banyak.

boy's version of paradise/hell:
1.  my parents told me that i'm one of the poster child for hibernating bears. ayah even said that when bunda gave birth to me, i was so still the doctor thought i was dead. turned out i came out sleeping. one slap to the butt and i was bawling. 
(huh.explains why i hate hate HATE being waked up.)

2. pretends to sleep on most trips, so when we get home, i get carried inside.
(don't we all).

3. recently ayah told me that when i was about 3-4 years old, every time i didn't want to clean up my toys after playing, he'd put my most favorite ones in a (clean) trash bag, dramatically throw it in the (just cleaned) trash can, and leave the least played with for me. said my face of horror was a real kick to him. after i cleaned up then he'd return it and said he found them somewhere.

4. my first indonesian word was 'globok' (goblok). 
ayah got one of the nastiest glare my mother could summon. 

5. at the end of preschool year, they made my class (only.the others did something cooler.) do a girl-boy dance. enjoyed making the crepe-flower-paper-plate hat, repulsed by the dance, became "that-kid-who-cried-and-got-carried-off-stage" from my year.yeah. 

6. when i was 4-5 years me and bunda had a routine: at vitamin time, i get to drop them in her mouth. one day, bunda was doing her make up and postponed the routine, so i waited with her vitamins on the table. got bored, started to jab the squishy fish oil ones up my nose. shrieked with glee. turned it into a game of ''how far can you push it in then pull it out". at some point it went in too deep and got stuck. tried to pull it out by trying to flick it out with a pencil...it went deeper. waded over to bunda, "bunda your medicine went up my nose". she ran me to the hospital and payed for the most expensive 2 pieces of tissues of our life for $200. we never played that game again.

7. i was the smallest among my baby friends, so my aunties genius solution so that i won't get lost was to tie a balloon around my waist to easily  pinpoint my exact location between the 'ruckus'...in their tiny-ass home yard.

8. really loved cheongsams & poofy princess dresses as a kid. got both and wanted to wear eother one to the mall. evil aunties gave me two choices: wear them and stay home  forever or not wear them and go to the mall. went to the mall sniffling.

9. there was a period that i was exited for halloween but didn't really know what to dress up as. so for the first day of pre-halloween at my preschool my mom & aunts dressed me up as jack-in-the-box. i got pissed and decided i wanted to be a princess.

10. the next day they let me wear the damn princess costume. felt like a sissy, fucking hated it and i think i cried a little. nearly ripped off the jack-in-the-box costume my little cousin ended up wearing (that bitch).

11. my greatest childhood achievement: one halloween dressed with the most perfect costume ever, The Hot Dog.
which friends insisting that said costume is a different being altogether, ranging from  a butterfly, a banana and a peanut.

12. was the classic 2B pencil the next year. complete with the pink eraser for a hat.
