My Generasi, Your Generasi?

Recently, there is this hit video on Facebook, "My Generasi". I recalled back what I did back in my childhood, playing Batu Seremban, the rope skipping game, and most of all, I missed Pepsi Cola. I used to play that with my friends during recess time.

Those days are just like a blink of eye, as if it just happened months ago. I believe child nowadays don't spend their childhood like how we used to. Video games, PSP, xBox, iPhone, iPad, are what they are talking now. They talked about Angry Birds, Angry Birds and Angry Birds. I really wonder what's so best about shooting the pigs. I have to admit that their era is different from us, even cartoon these days has gone so differently compare to those days. I am quite shocked that kids nowadays don't know about Popeye The Sailorman. I mean, Popeye is like a classic right?

Luckily, they still know about Doraemon but they don't get so addicted with Doraemon like how we used to be.

Also, Tom and Jerry. I remembered my brother and I used to wake up early during the weekends just to watch cartoons. We love Tom and Jerry a lot and I still do now. What do kids nowadays do during their weekends? It is whether tuition classes or attend art class or music class. Sometimes, I really pity them a little because some of the parents out there really demand too much from their children on academic aspects. They are just children, don't you think it is a little too much? They should enjoy their childhood!

Tom and Jerry, never stop fighting

Power Rangers? Talk about Power Rangers the children might call you outdated. The superheroes nowadays are Ben 10, Transformers and some I don't know what they call. 

Different color ranger has different ability!

The other superheroes such as Ultraman, Spiderman and Batman which I don't think they are still on air nowadays.

Scooby-Doo! I wondered if it is still showing on Cartoon Network. Cartoons like this should really be aired on television because it actually can help children to learn and think. I used to guess and bet who's the culprit with my brother. We watched almost every episodes of the Scooby-Doo. 

Scooby Doo, where are you!

Martin Mystery is also another nice cartoon mystery to watch. 

The Team

There were also plenty of girl cartoons back then such as Powerpuff Girls, Totally Spies and also Sailormoon!

There are still many cartoons that I watched during my childhood, such as Totally Spies, Sailormoon, Crayon Shin-chan, Dexter's Laboratory, Inspector Gadget and many more. As comparison, I think that cartoons nowadays are getting little as time goes by. Most likely it is because it has been replaced by technologies and games. 

This is my generation, how about yours?
