Play It Aloud

Halo to all.

As my 1 1/2 long holiday draws near to the end, I decided to add in another blog before returning to school. Also, if you're wondering about the title, and thought that I was referring to fondling melons to trigger that heavy breath coming out from you (And maybe those melons too, if you fantasize hard; That's what she said.), then I'd be grateful you knew our great innuendo minds think alike. :D But seriously, the title will reflect on my next Throwback Nostalgia, which will be written here. I will now recount on what we call Children's Biggest Obsession, known as...

TOYS

You know, during my childhood days, I really looked forward to both my Birthday, and Christmas. Why, if you ask? Because, I would receive countless gifts which contain new toys! I really am thankful of their offering of happiness they had given to me. What's better is that I got to play them with my friends. It was more than just a fun memory to remember. :) Maybe I should name, and describe some toys in detail, just to let you know that I got the whole store room filled with my toys. Alright, here we go.

One of them was called Tomy Trains. They involve connecting train carriages, train tracks, and bridges. What's new tech about it (During that time, I considered it advanced.) is that the trains can be battery operated. So, with a slot of a battery and off it goes journeying through the blue train tracks towards the red bridges and fences, and tunnels, just like what a real train does. Perhaps that was why I also made a custom build that replicates how the MRT stations here look like, instead of blindly following what the original design showed on the toy's box. My mind was that creative indeed. ^^

Another was called Bionicle, whereby it involves the building of such mechanical heroes, by connecting the different parts of their body together (Arms, legs, torso, weapons etc...). When you get to the end of building them, I could really see how badass they look. Furthermore, they are not those typical stiff action figures you see nowadays. You can turn and move their limbs to create a heroic pose you wanted to see. What was also cool about them is that you can even go further to a creative extent and combine them together to form one ultimate hero, similar to Transformers. Today, all the Bionicle toys I had built still stand strong, and united in one my house shelves, and they all to my eyes still look badass. >:D

I had a large set of remote-controlled cars as well, and I could remember clearly when I brought it out of my old house to test it out. I may not exactly describe how I feel whilst it vrooms through the park, but I definitely can say that it bore similarity to controlling cars during a free drive in the Need For Speed games. It was real slick. :D

Moreover, I had built houses and monster trucks, out of Lego. All those hard work just to construct them really had paid off, because when I looked at them, I felt that I made such a masterpiece, just like Halo (Can't help stopping what I wanted to say here. XD). Like those Tomy Trains, I made a custom build with such building blocks to create ships and ferries. Maybe, it was because of the time I went to Harbourfront to board a ferry to travel towards Batam, Indonesia to enjoy a luxurious holiday with my family. If you're curious, that took place in the Year 2000.

Last, but definitely not the least, I had a complete Doctor Toy Set. This was one of the reasons why my ambition is to be a Doctor. This set is similar to the ones you see in both hospitals and clinics. With such toys, I tried to replicate scenes that depict the doctors' busy work, like surgeries and patient examinations, with the help of my friends. I gotta admit, thanks to that, I became aware what it means to save lives, which was why I joined a Co-Curricular Activity during my Secondary School days, which involves humanitarian service. As humans, we are to help one another, regardless of whatever situations occur. To me, I think of that as a motto to 'Being Human'. :)

With that, I shall end my forth entry to my Throwback Nostalgia. If you remember any toys you had played with during childhood, remember it well, because they hold one of the most powerful memories of childhood. And when you have kids one day, make sure you offer them as gifts during various special days of the year. They will definitely see the happiness of childhood the same way you saw many years ago. :') You know what analogy can envision that sentence better...? How about giving them your old toys, and see it for yourself. :)

Alright, my next school semester will start tomorrow, and I gotta be honest, I prefer this semester's schedule to the former. Oh, I almost forgot to say this, but because I chose a particular specialization, I ended up shifting to a new class. You know what that means; New beginnings, new classmates, new awkwardness (Well, maybe during the initial weeks, lololololol.) but maybe... *Blushies out again* a new significant other to my life. After all, the girl who I used to like is already taken, and I have no right to interfere like a douche. Thus I will hunt again, until I find myself a target to pounce towards. :3 May the lucks be ever in my favor.

I may intend posting one last Throwback Nostalgia next week, but I will see first if I have time. Okay, gonna enjoy the remaining hours of my holiday to its upmost maximum. Hmmmm... that almost sounded like climaxing. Hehehe! XD I really have weird thoughts, no? Till then, see you starside.
