Happy Sunday!!! We've got some more childhood questions again this week. Here we go!
1. What do you miss most about being a kid?
I miss just being carefree and not having any real worries. Kids never have to worry about finances, vehicles, cooking, fixing up the house, nothing! I hate that I wanted to be an adult so bad and now I wish I could go back to watching Saturday morning cartoons and playing outside with no worries of anything bad happening.
2. Did you have a nickname growing up? What was it?
Hmmm, I don't really think I did. My full name is Victoria, so usually family called me Vicki or Vick. My mom used to call me Vicki-Poo. :)
3. What was your favorite thing to do at recess?
I honestly don't really remember. I do remember when we were on the little kids side of the Elementary school, we used to play in these cement tunnel things. They are long gone now. What a shame!
4. What did you want to be when you grew up?
I really wanted to be a teacher or just a Mommy.
5. Did you participate in any school activities?
I was in band from 5th grade to my senior year. I played the flute and then started playing the oboe from 9th on. I was also a cheerleader my senior year.
6. What is the funniest thing you did as a kid that your parents still remind you about?
Well, I don't think it's too funny, but when I was 4 or 5, I was playing with a kernel of Indian corn and for some GRAND reason, I decided to stick it in my nose. I was crying so bad and so my parents rushed me to the Dr. and he removed it with tweezers. I'm a genius, I know. Kahle thinks this story is hilarious and he loves to tell it like he was there. Crazy kid!

I'm with you on number 1! I totally regret wishing I was a grown up, if only! I still watch Saturday cartoons though, I'm not that grown up!
ReplyDeleteI agree that I miss being carefree. I think I am the only person who didn't get something stuck up their nose growing up...maybe that means I have big nostrils?!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it great how our parents can take something we remember as traumatic and make it a funny story? My mom stuck a penny up her nose and my grandmother still tells it and cracks up about it...LOL
ReplyDeleteWe can still be carefree ... we just have to get everything else done 1st ~ lol
ReplyDeleteVisiting for Social Sunday ~ cute blog!!! :)
Dropping in by way of the Link up and I totally miss being carefree and worry free. No bills, what's that like? And I can't believe I forgot to add that I always wanted to be a Mommy.. because I thought about that often. I used to tell everyone I Was born to be a mom.

I am with you on #1. I want to go back to watching cartoons and riding bikes. Bills are for the birds.

Wasn't this a FUN link-up this week?! LOVED being able to think back on my childhood and read on others, too - The lack of responsibilities is a big one for me too - how nice to live care free! We didn't know how good we had it! ;)
