Those were the days my friend

Thanks to Daniel, I found myself reliving my childhood by watching 'Gremlins'.

Classic! Although some parts, watching through adult-ish eyes, are pretty cheesy. But still a classic. Aww, they don't make these kind of movies like they used to, do they?

I love the part there the gremlins party at the bar, and also when they watched Snow White in at the cinema, with that shiny bling bling and funky disco moves. Hilarious! And the part where Billy's mother puts his father's inventions to good use by 'juicing' and 'microvaving' the gremlins.

Or maybe I'm just easily entertained. Which is a good thing, because I'm never bored, and therefore, (hopefully) never boring.

Other news, there's nothing much to do here in Essex. I've already been to Southend the last time I was here, and visited the longest pier in the world (I think), and thats about it.

Was thinking of flying over to Aberdeen to visit a scottish friend of mine, but he's busy doing summer coaching and so cannot meet up. And my cousin is back in Malaysia. So shall wait patiently until Yuen Li announces whether he will be free for me to visit him in Nottingham next week.

I'm going to Robin Hood county!!

Does anyone remember that Disney Robin Hood cartoon? The one where all the characters were animals? I used to love it, especially the singing chicken.

And does anyone remember Jem and the Holograms, the cartoon? My Little Pony? Maya the Bee? Care Bears? Thunder Cats and Smurfs? And does anyone remember the times where there was always a moral at the end of the show?

I just watched Rugrats on tv with my cousin just now and its so different now, isn't it? Some cartoons these days should be given an R rating, methinks. So violent sometimes.

What happened to those good old days when children were just children, and everything was so innocent?
