Childhood Memories

I was chatting with a couple of friends, and came to the realization that I did a lot of stupid things in my childhood...

Stupid, yet incredibly hilarious things.

One time I used Tabasco as a makeshift lipstick... Now imagine a child going "Voilà! .... oooOOOOWWWWW!! *cries*"

Another time, my cousin and I thought it would be a brilliant idea to shave our heads. With razors. So we did, and later came running to our grandmother with bleeding heads. Good times, good times. Oh, and we poured rubbing alcohol on the wounds... cause the commercial said it was important to clean wounds...

I think I drank cologne once, because the bottle looked all pink and shiny (could that be the source of my hatred of all things pink?). To this day I'm not sure if that actually happened or if it was just a dream, or something I imagined. But I remember the taste (quite vividly), so...

I remember being fascinated by the anime Sailor Moon, so once I colored my nails black using permanent marker and danced around the living room. Not the craziest thing I've ever done, but still worth mentioning.

One time, another cousin and I were convinced that there was some buried treasure in the living room, and that our cat was the key. So we lifted the cat and blew in its arse, and went to wherever its tail pointed... Our parents later came home to the two of us trying to dig a hole.

Another time, me and the cousin from the shaving heads incident had a "water fight". We basically took some old mugs and threw water on each other. Naturally, this resulted in the breaking of said mugs, and shards of them being scattered all over the floor. I remember thinking, "Right, I better put my slippers on so I don't cut my feet." So I walked over the broken mugs to get my slippers. My feet bled.

I used to ride my bike around a cemetery... but that was probably my mum's idea.

Well, that's all for now. When I remember more, I'll post them here.

Like I said, good times... good times.

Childhood is the sleep of reason.
