When I Was A Kid

Bachpan ke din bhula na dena..... aaj hase kal rula na dena.....
Really a great song from "Deedar", sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Shamshad Begum, written by Shakeel Badayuni.

I remember some of the days when i had joined school(kindergarten).... I remember that I was not having much friends...though there was a guy with whom i used to sit during the recess time.The funny thing about that guy was "fryums" were his daily food in his "dabba".That's why i used to call him "Abdul bhungda(word for fryums in gujarati)" while sharing my day at school with my parents.

These are the days when (people say) the human is the most innocent during whole their life....i don't know either it's 100% true or not....... But i remember my chat with my mohalla(street) friends....
"friend1: do you know a human can also fly
me: yeah i know
friend2: I didn't know that!
friend1: Yes, we can. But we need wings to fly.
me: yeah, but very big wings that are not possible for anyone to create.
friend1: And we also need to jump from tooooo tall building that are not easy to build.
friend2: Is that why we haven't seen any human flying?"


These types of chats were common during those days.And some silly challenges were also given to each other in specific time.Kids love to make things bigger and powerful than they actually are(just like women ;)).
Let's skip some years and move to the days when i was in 3rd or 4th grade...actually it was my summer vacation.....that i spent with my uncle's house.... far away from my parents and my home....may be it was my first vacation apart from my parents.I was supposed to feel lonely without my mumma and daddy but I actually enjoyed those days.... I was not knowing what i would be in future but at that time i became a game creator....

"Me and my cousin and my cousin's cousin created a new game called "adventure" to pass the boring days of vacation. I still remember the game.There were three character in the game (obviously because we were only three players to play the game!) "THE HERO, THE DEVIL and THE FRIEND(who was imprisoned by devil :D )" the hero and devil had a fight and as per our plan the devil had to loose the game(no choices were left by writers of the game :p) and thus the hero succeeds saving his friend."


I don't think my co-players still remember the game. Or may be they do. But I'm the one who is never ever going to forget those golden days when i was a kid. :)
