20 Things I Miss About Being a Kid

Happy Wednesday, everyone! This post was really fun to write, and brought back so many memories! And yes, I know you're probably thinking 'Dude, you're 16, you're practically still a kid.', but I mean more like pre-secondary school -ish!
  1. Making shapes out of the clouds
  2. Walking down the street with your CD walkman like an absolute boss
  3. Dressing up in your mum's clothes and high heels
  4. Making up dances and performing them in front the crazy crowd consisting of your mum, your dad and your dog
  5. Getting excited because your birthday is only 364 days away
  6. Drawing pictures and sitting outside the front of your house with a plastic play till attempting to sell your works of art to passers-by
  7. Playing in the street with your friends all afternoon and then getting called in for tea #thenostaliaisreal
  8. Worrying that your eyes are really going to turn square shaped from watching too much TV
  9. Believing that if you bit the top off of a cola bottle sweet you could suck real coca cola out of it
  10. Creating a code with the kids next door that consisted of banging on the wall really loudly a certain amount of times
  11. Grieving the kids who failed Raven
  12. Shouting to your parents downstairs once you'd gone to bed to make sure they were still there and hadn't been abducted by flying space rhinos
  13. Trying with all your might to get to sleep before 8pm to avoid a visit from Wee-Willie-Winkie
  14. Believing that the sooner you get to sleep the sooner you wake up
  15. The biggest responsibility in your life was feeding your Tamagotchi
  16. 6am raves to High Five every morning on Cbeebies
  17. Scented highlighters were your life
  18. Strolling on into Blockbuster and hiring your fave movies on VHS
  19. A minute of appreciation for the Gameboy...
  20. Buying dolls and being disappointed because they never did half of the things they advertised
Hope you enjoyed the post! Have a fab week!

  1. I especially like #6 :D I would draw and make all kinds of creations, not quite realising that, if someone actually wanted a nice teapot or plate, they would go to a proper ceramics shop! I thought I had a money-making scheme going on! :')
    So true.
