This 3 minute video gave me a blast from the past,brushed all those sweet cherishable moments of my childhood....I immediately felt like writing something about it and yep here it is...
Yaad hain woh din jab ham summer holidays ke pehle din hi apne naani ke gaar jathe the(remember those days when we used to pack our bags on the first day of our summer holidays to land at our granny's place)...Oh those are the golden days..gone are those days but what we are left with is only the memories to cherish.
Where to start I am filled with thousands of memories...each worth mentioning but then this post would be unending.
1 Rupee...yep 1 rupee that has very litte value now was our daily allowance which was 10 rupess in our X class ;) which would fetch us a handful of mango pieces and two chocolates :) !! Ha how can one forget the beautiful ice packed in a myriad of colours outside our school or the small shops which would sell a variety of chocolates our favourite chips...all within our budget.After our school we kids would wait for our homework to get completed and out mom's permission to go play and would jump off with glee into the streets only to return to the call of our mom or because we could no longer play....instead of an Ipad with those games and addicting stuff....Those were the days when Tom and Jerry,Scooby Doo,Popeye and Dennis were our favourites
Our birthday parties were not in Pizza Huts or Mc Donald's but in our homes with a cake(mind you not a pastry!!),cool drinks,snacks and Dairy Milk!!!The days when we used to sit glued to the Tv sets until Sachin is at the crease only to turn it off when he was out...days when we could communicate only with letters and eagerly wait for their reply and days when TRUNK CALL did exist!!!
Those were the days when Harry Potter was our fantasy and Howgarts somehing we all wished to come true :))...Those were the days when we could still enjoy our school without the combined IIT,AIEEE and whatever foundation courses right from class V.....days when we all friends would sit and chat instad of being busy with our cell phones messaging to someone far off without paying heed to someone beside you!!!
It's the generation of facebook,whatsapp,hike,twitter,instagram and what not...infact a tech filled world with little or no space for what we guys enjoyed as kids....Those were the days which will make us turn back and say Yaad hain Woh din :))
