I Miss My Childhood!!!!!!
I know it's quite late to be watching one of the movie of the years, but when you're someone who lives at a boarding school and then when comes back home on vacations to study for the coming finals for more than three months before them, you don't get time to watch any of your favorite shows OR movies. I'll be turning seventeen this year and Andy from toy story three is also seventeen. I saw the toys in that movie and it reminded me of my toys, my childhood days and how it was sweet and smooth when all was so better and everything seemed so easy. The movie made me cry, I'm sure it made many people cry too. I mean, just check out the way the guy was attached to his toys that he didn't want them thrown out. And the toys loved him so much.
But the most emotional scene was in the end when the guy who grew old enough not to be playing with toys was playing with his childhood love(s) and how he described the characteristics of each and every toy so wonderfully. And the small little girl to whom he gave the toys was so enigmatic, SO CHILDISH that i missed my childhood desperately. But the gone moments can't come back now, i miss my childhood days.
When i used to go out playing in the forests that aren't there any more (courtesy of becoming civilized), when i had friends who would come over to play (now everyone's busy studying). When i used to eat handful of soil. When i used to run around the house crying cuz my mother wasn't listening to me cuz i wasn't listening to her and she wanted me to wear the sweater i didn't wanna wear. When i used to make mud houses and all us friends would light little candles and bring out our miniature tanks and army stuff and call the mud houses our castle. When we used to climb up the trees and jump off calling ourselves crows and monkeys and what not. When all the family get-togethers would be fun and all the cousins would raid the shop by the house. When we bought a stray cat or dog to our home and get scolded by our parents. When we would eat the paste off the top of the matches. When i broke the camera taking pictures of my feeding bottle. When i hurt my knees and elbows daily. When i used to cry in the mall when my mother won't let me buy the toys i wanted.
I hate growing up! But it's life. Now all i can do is enjoy the remaining childhood of my little brother. And i hate my boarding school for making me miss seeing my little angel grow up. I love him so much. And whenever i look at him, Taylor Swift's song "Never Grow Up" comes to my mind, which manages to describe childhood very efficiently. And whenever i listen to it, my little brother gets so bothers by it that he says he wants to throw the monitor of the computer away. Like that'll stop the PC from playing it :)
TAYLOR SWIFT: NEVER GROW UP (Lyrics)
Your little hand's wrapped around my finger
And it's so quiet in the world tonight
Your little eyelids flutter cause you're dreaming
So I tuck you in, turn on your favorite night light
To you everything's funny, you got nothing to regret
I'd give all I have, honey
If you could stay like that
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
I won't let nobody hurt you, won't let no one break your heart
And no one will desert you
Just try to never grow up, never grow up
You're in the car on the way to the movies
And you're mortified your mom's dropping you off
At 14 there's just so much you can't do
And you can't wait to move out someday and call your own shots
But don't make her drop you off around the block
Remember that she's getting older too
And don't lose the way that you dance around in your pj's getting ready for school
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
No one's ever burned you, nothing's ever left you scarred
And even though you want to, just try to never grow up
Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room
Memorize what it sounded like when your dad gets home
Remember the footsteps, remember the words said
And all your little brother's favorite songs
I just realized everything I have is someday gonna be gone
So here I am in my new apartment
In a big city, they just dropped me off
It's so much colder that I thought it would be
So I tuck myself in and turn my night light on
Wish I'd never grown up
I wish I'd never grown up
Oh I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up
I could still be little
Oh I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up
It could still be simple
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
Won't let nobody hurt you
Won't let no one break your heart
And even though you want to, please try to never grow up
Oh, don't you ever grow up
Oh, never grow up, just never grow up
I LOVE MY LITTLE BRO
