your best memories/favourite things about being a kid

AnnieDreams · Post by **AnnieDreams** » 1/7/2005, 4:25 pm

I only played Spice Girls once or twice. We didn't know enough about them to make a decent game out of it.

I used to play sailormoon a lot. and Spiderman. And Pokemon. And when I was younger, Power Rangers. And when I was really little and had no friends, me and my sister and our next-door neighbour (if they would let me play) would play Cowboy's and Indians, except usually without the cow-boys. We used to wear headbands, and these shirts my parents had from the sixties. And Cops and Robbers. And Littlest Pet-Shop, and random make-believe games.

I miss being little...

My friends didn't appreciate the greatness that was Sailor Moon.

Losers.

my sailor moon card collection kicked ass!

i believe you can still find them around, if you ever come across those little red azn vending machines with the dials you turn.

in japan, yes.

but somehow they thought that the rest of the show was cool for kids in North American, so they took out all the porn.

I used to play Sailor Moon a lot, too! It was pretty awesome... I always played Jupiter, because everyone else hated green. they said it was a boy's colour :lol:

i was probly the only 6/7 year old kid who played with boys (not sailor moon, of course

), and didn't care about boy/girl colours. :lol:

I've seen Japanese sailor moon, and it was pretty devoid of hentai. I remember it being better than the english version, but I don't remember how. I was in grade four or five at the time.

Uh... then maybe it was the children's Japanese version :wtf:

Cause she's definitely naked a lot in the original. And bones that stupid mask guy a lot.

I recall playing Beast Wars in the winter. We would crawl around in our snowsuits at recess, and then we'd 'maximize' or whatever they said, and we'd all have guns carved out of blocks of snow. it was awesome.

we also made these bases in the snow for fighter planes and spaceships that we made out of blocks of snow.

and on occasion we'd be wolves or something.. and power rangers. and then we played this ninja game that i made up after having played Tenchu for the ps1.

Mr Benn
Pigeon Street
Bagpuss
The Flumps
Postman Pat
The Magic Roundabout
Count Duckula (a veggie vampire

)
The Mysterious Cities of Gold (though I wasn't so young for that)
and lots more!

I guess its time for me to contribute my thoughts to this thread:

Listening to Tom Petty every weekend when i when camping with my dad
watching the Little Mermaid every day of my life until I hit 1st grade
camping
and uhh.... growing up listening to Matchbox 20, goo goo dolls, third eye blind and all of those other nostalgic 90's pop/rock songs
