We used to do a lot of silly, hilarious, and ridiculous things as kids. Here is a list of some of the common silly things most of us may have done in our childhood. Hope you can relate to many of these.
1. Eating chalk or chewing erasers: Ever tried this weird snack?
2. Mom’s dupatta- superhero cape: Ever dressed up using mumma’s dupatta and pretended to be a superhero flying around the air (running around the house).
3. Imaginary games: Ever made up your own games like “The floor is lava” or “treasure hunt”?
4. Weird food combinations: How many cold drink combinations have you made and drank? And how many times have your experiments tasted just disgusting?
5. Prank calling: Calling random numbers and talking with different accents. Well, some of us do it now also.
6. Impersonating celebrities: Ever imitated your favorite celebrity and try to mimic their dance moves and dialogues? Dressing up like them and acting like them the whole day.
7. Bunked classes in school: Ever bunked class and went out of school by jumping from some wall or some secret door.
8. Mimicked teachers: Mimicked the teachers we hated the most and made our friends laugh.
9. Creating imaginary worlds: Almost all of us have created a different world/ planet where we were princes/princesses, superheroes, etc.
10. Playing “Ghar Ghar”: This is for girls. How many of you have dragged and forced your male friends or brothers to play this with you?
We used to make up a lot of fictitious scenarios filled with innocence and silliness when we were younger. It was so much fun back then but now that I think about it, I realize how silly I was!
This is my last blog of this semester. Meet you next semester. Keep exploring until then!
