Do you still remember your childhood? Do you still remember the time where you don't need to think of anything, where your mind is just filled of a thought on how you can escape in your mom eyes just to play with your friends. When they thought that you are sleeping but the truth is you are not. When your mom fetch you in your friends house and she has a stick in her hand hidden in her back ready to hit you when you move closer to her. Do you still remember the feeling of being hit by a hanger, slipper and "walis tambo?"

I experience this all, my childhood is full of scolding ang pain from hitting me but still the happy memory is there. I won't exchange it into anything, because in my childhood I experience those what a child should experience when your just a kid, not like in this new generation where thier room is their playground and thier gadgets is their plaything.

I will tell you the story of my Childhood, the one I remember the most and it is full of scolding but full of happy memories too, full of friends and no dull moments.

I am Ruffa, 15 years of age, and I believe in the saying that, "Love is Blind, Time is Gold, and Simplicity is Beauty," and I ......... Thank You!, I am the 3rd child of my Parents, haha. I have 3 siblings, my Sister, My Brother and the eldest Sister Brother, he's a she now, lol. My father has a sister, so she is my Auntie, she is a Tomboy so there is no change for her to have her own child because unfortunately she likes a she too. My auntie has a partner, I call them Mommy because that's what they want me to call them, so she has a partner they were together for a long time, not until our Creator take her.

They were together for I don't remember for how many year but, it's very long because they were together when they were just in their teens. My Mama is pregnant with me, when they decided to adopt? No, no, not like that it's like they just get me to be their daughter, there is no paper or any law involved, because my Auntie said that, if I decided to go back with my real mom I can freely go, if only I want it. And my real mom is just my neighbor so I can see her everywhere here, and when I don't like our viand in my Aunt's house I will just get some viand in my mom's Carenderia, lol. They get me by mom "Pagkahugot palang sa sinapupunan nya," that's what they say, and the truth is, I am not suppose to be their child because my Auntie wants a boy as a child, I am not their first choice I am just an option!!! Huhuhu. But my Mommy Me insist that I should be the one, she wants me! My Auntie can't do anything about it and so here I am, I don't why, why my Mommy Me choose me, but my guess is that, it's because of my "Overloaded Cuteness" he he he.

Back to my childhood stories, I just tell you a brief history of my life, like 1% of it haha. Anyway, so I became my Auntie's daughter, but minus Mommy Me because she had this breast cancer and that kills her, I was just so little that time and no memory of how it happened but, I remember her face still.

When I was a child, I was always scolded because I am a veryyyyy hard headed kid. I love to play always. We have a bakery before, my Auntie I call her Mommy F. She told me their story about how they able to put up a bakery business, and it's because of their diligent and persistence they work hard for it. My Mama and Papa is working in her bakery while me, well I also help too, like putting a bread in a plastic. They also deliver their bread into places, but not that far way away places. And whenever they have a delivery, they will always leave me in the bakery together with their worker and my siblings.

And this is what I always do whenever they have a delivery....

Whenever they have a delivery, the blanket that we are using to protect our product from heat,I always get it make it as my dress, yes, just like that in the picture above this. I love dresses when I was a child because maybe my Mommy Me always buy me a dress, and she always want me to participate in any event that is for children, maybe they see me as her doll because, well I can't really blame her because of my overloaded cuteness that is why, but that is just guess haha charr.

Aside from the blanket, my shirt or my uniform, because elementary here has a very long skirt, I always fold it to make it look shorter then I will put a clip in the back and then I will walk in the pathway and sway my hips side by side just like in the cat walk, haha. This is not the end of this, i still have more. Sometimes, I will make my little brother dress up like me and we will play together, and then we have a neighbor, he is one of my childhood friend but I was older that him just 2 years. We will play together, the 3 of us, walk like a model and when we don't notice my Moms arrival, tago na us. That's is one scary moment haha, when we see us like that, instead of helping outside the store, here we are playing, yari na.

So, I should be in the store but because I love playing, I don't stay outside, I just play inside until my Mommy F came from their delivery. Whenever I hear the sound of her Tricycle, I know the sound of it, even if it's still far from the store, that's where I will stop playing and fold the blanket that I used and go outside like nothing happened, haha, she is so strict so I am so afraid of her. But she will still discover it because I forgot what I need to do and I will get a scolding from her.

I still have more, even if my mom get mad at me, or hit me sometime because I am really a heard headed kid, I will do it again and just accept the scolding as long as I get to play with my playmate and I am happy.

Growing up, I was in high school when I stop wearing a dress, I don't know. I have this thinking that "I want to be cool" like my mom, I didn't even notice that I was idolizing her. One time, because I want to be cool, I thought of "I want to have a moustache, I will look cool with it!" Then, because I want it, I shaved the little hair I have there. Another one is I shaved the hair in my legs and this is the result, I really can't wear a skirt or dress now, huhuhu!!! And I don't want to shave it now because, it's itchy once the hair start to grow again.

Since then, I never ever wear a dress, except when we had our JS prom, I had too wear one, for our grade huhu and when we have to perform in Mapeh, I can't remember but I think it's in Mapeh.

Find me if you can. Look how akward I am in that dress, and it's pink seriously, I don't like pink I want black and white but I can't ask my Mom to buy me another dress because I am shy to ask her. So I just settle myself with that, I can't be choosy, it's for my grade.

If I can time travel back in time, if it's possible, I will go back again to the time where I am just a kid and just happy and contented for what we have.

You didn't have a happy childhood if you didn't experience the, bao hair.... Hahah.

This is the last, hahaha. I get this in my storage, I have a lot more, I have 4 big album full of our memory like events or celebration, so even if I didn't remember all of my childhood, I still have a copy, a physical copy that I can look at once I become old.

Bye bye!!

How about you? How's your childhood memory? What is your best memory as child?
