Vicky23  +  228757 Thu, 25 May 06 02:52 AM international  children's day is coming soon. i has no right to celebrate this day years ago. now the only festival day for me is women's day. though i am not a kid any more, i have no kids now. in parents' eye, i am a always a child. but the society force me to be mature. sometimes when i look back the years passing by, i could help miss the happy and carefree childhood. sunny day, blue sky, funny games... i had nothing to worry about. every school-free day is my holiday. and the spring festival is the most happy getting-together, cos we get new clothes, delicious food and what's more we get lot's of money from the elder. the fireworks is exciting too, as well as the long celebration started at the new year's eve until fortnight afterwards.

	nona the brit  +  229320 Fri, 26 May 06 03:06 PM It's funny that when you are a child you can't wait to grow up because you imagine that adults have complete power over their lives and can do anything they want. I think that is one of the biggest shocks about growing up! Looking back life seems so much simpler as a child but I also remember plenty of upsets and stresses, they seem unimportant from an adult viewpoint, but at the time they were hard. Still, I do wish someone just gave me pocket money and that I could have 12 weeks holiday a year! nona the brit Joined on Wed, Sep 22 2004 England Veteran Member 11,713 The name says it all.

	Janissary  +  229733 Sat, 27 May 06 11:53 PM I wonder if there is anyone who doesnt miss his childhood. I really want to come back again those years when I used to play from morning to evening and the time when the only thing that bothered me was just a candy or toy that wasnt bought to me.Now,i can see the life is fraught with hardships for everyone except children. PS.By the way, as far as i know children's day has already passed. hasnt it? it was April 23 . Is there any other date for it that i dont know?

	Vicky23  +  230053 Mon, 29 May 06 05:23 AM i can sense that you might have done some wrong when you are kid. who didn't? men makes mistakes, letting go kids. i made horrible mistakes in my childhood. it took me years forgiving myself. for a long time i feel regretful and i considered myself a bad child. it must be one factor effecting my present characteristics. now i am modest and cautious, because i am trying to make no mistakes, or rather, make less mistakes.
