I don't wanna grow up...!

... I'm a Toys 'R' Us Kid
... They got a million toys that I can play with!


After handing in the final cashflow today, I decided to reward myself a Rhumba. Hence, I drove to Mid Valley, since my friend wanted to catch up on the latest gossip over coffee... However, I was so dissapointed when I saw that they have covered the Rhumba on the menu with a white piece of paper.. No more Rhumba?!!! Nooooooooooooooo......!

Ok.. ok.. enough of being a drama queen..

After the gossip session, I accompanied my buddy to get a birthday gift for his 3-year old cousin. We went straight to the toy heaven - The Toys 'R' Us!

It has been ages since I last went into the store.. And as I roamed the isle, I cringed at the memories of my childhood.. All those childhood toys.. syoknyaaa...

I remembered playing this game every time I go to my friend's house after school during the primary school days. She used to have great collection of board games. Besides Risk, Mouse Trap, Boggle, UNO and Snake 'n' ladder, we also loved to play the Old Maid and Happy Family playing cards.. Do they still have those playing cards ah?



Apart from the traditional batu seremban, bottle caps, guli, skipping rope and lompat teng-teng, another one of my favourite game used to be the pick-up sticks. I can spend hours just playing this game. Sometimes we will perform some silly techniques just to collect as much sticks with the highest points. Oh.. such fun days...



However, now they have come up with more interesting board games, incorporating the latest movie series such as Star Wars, Harry Potter and The Lord of The Rings. My sis owns the Special Edition LOTR Monopoly set which has an interesting twist to the regular game. And today, I've found another interesting LOTR board game that had made my buddy drool for it... Imagine a full grown-up man drooling over a board game.. hehehe.. Not a pretty sight for sure! Eh, dude, if you ever decide to get it, don't forget to invite me over to play ya.. nak main jugak! *winks*


After drooling over all the newly improved board games, he finally decided to get the cousin an electronic drum sticks. It is an absolutely cool toy for a kid... With just a single flick on the wrist and a push of a button, you can create various drum sounds. I was actually enjoying myself playing with the stick, while roaming around the store.. And I bet my darling friend will have a full go at it tonight before wrapping it up for the cousin.





So, what kind of toys did you play with while growing up?
