what do you miss

I ask questions now. It makes things harder to appreciate.

 

i'm still a kid...probably won't grow up for a long time...its impossible to grow up when you have halloween parachuters and throw them out the window and still be amazed at how they glide through the air and get caught in trees.

 

I miss the magic of experiencing things for the first time. I also miss how years seemed to take forever to pass, and now they seem to pass too quickly.

 

oh that is so true!

 

i played ninja turtles too! i was always raphael, he was my favorite one.
did anyone ever play super mario? i would be the princess and my brother and his friend would be mario and luigi and save me while i sat in the clubhouse playing with barbie ^.^
hahaha...there were some good times in my old neighborhood

 

hehehe i didnt 'play mario brothers except on the nintendo at a friends house.
i remember being real young and playing cowboys and indians tho... haha that was kinda fun.

 

I miss hanging out with my big brother. I miss being a trouble maker and not getting caught. I miss my grandparent's and staying with them on the lake. I miss thunderstorms. I miss swimming and fishing. I miss the times when my mom was single and it was just the three of us.

 

I miss my family

 

Hahaha! We used to have this octogon shaped rug in our entryway at our old house, and I used to walk around the outer edges of it ENDLESSLY! I would get so dizzy but I'd just keep walking in this little circle....I don't know why my parent's never sent me to a shrink!...Oh wait, they did....

 

Oh God, I miss having no worries... wow.

 

That's definantly one of them... People tend to look at me funny when I do it now...

 

Hahaha!


Anyways, y'all, it seems kind of depressing to be sitting around, thinking about the "good ol' days". Things weren't perfect. I admit, it was nice to be little and carefree, but I'd never want to go back there. I can do so much more now, I can understand so much more. The world is more complex, and that isn't always a bad thing. We must always continue to move forward, no?

 

Tru dat, Kay-tizzle.

 

I miss exploring the creek behind my house. Digging trenches, building forts and fucking around on construction sites. Those were the days.

 

I miss playing and pretending but I have a 2 year old now so I still have fun...but not the same as not having to worry about anything

 

There are quite alot I could complain about in my childhood, but I miss fishing with my brother, living with my step-grandmother during summer vacation (she died about 17-18 yrs ago) and not having to worry about paying the bills.

 

i consider my childhood tell i was 18... it gets very different and complicated when you hit your 20's you will see ,then you too will miss those days.

 

Going to my grandmother's house was magical. When my mother went back to to persue her Bachelor's degree, (while working full time) and my father worked down town, my sister and I would spend a couple nights a week at her house. I miss fighting over what movies to rent, and our, "adopted", grandfather taking us out for ice cream. I miss having my grams help me study for my vocabulary tests and constantly asking her to give me harder words. I miss her making us french toast while we watched the Smurfs. I miss the times when she was on a bowling league and how she would take us with her and give us money for arcade games. I miss my whole family going out to eat after church on Sundays at our old standby. I miss playing with my cousins. I miss wishing that I was grown up, as I am now wishing that I was young again.

 

i love reading all of these comments. it's cool to see a little bit about you guys.

 

That's true. I realized that my childhood slipped away when I was 19. That's when real life slapped me across the face with a rude awakening, and my innocence was ripped away.
