Using Cartoon Characters To Recall Our Childhood Experiences
Have you ever associated some TV shows with your routines? Like when a specific show is running, you immediately remember a certain routine from the past?
Thanks so much, lovely peeps! ✨❤️
My colleagues and I had this as a topic of our conversation during a meeting. After discussing the agenda, we looked for an icebreaker. Usually, we opt for the 250 icebreaker questions and the wheel of names to pick who's going to answer a certain question but a colleague dropped this question:
We still had an hour so we decided to use the wheel of names to decide who's going to share first.
I was quite nervous because I'm the youngest and I'm not sure whether they know the cartoons I'm going to share.
One shared Mr. Bean - both the animated and the live-action one. When K shared it, I remembered the days when my sister and I used to watch it on Disney and we still watch it even if we already know what will happen next.
On the other hand, one colleague shared that her's is the Totally Spies! Can you still remember it?
She said she always wanted to be Sam (the orange-haired girl) but her personality is Clover (the yellow-haired one). We all laughed because we can relate!
I was chosen by the wheel of names. I couldn't think of any but this specific cartoon came to mind.
At first, I couldn't remember the title! I explained to them that I remembered watching this bunny who doesn't talk but with a really great routine! I mean, imagine its routine - going t grocery stores, reading books, drinking a cup of tea, very relaxing!
Then one of my colleagues commented, it's the Untalkable Bunny!
After I confirmed, one colleague asked, Is that even for kids? HAHAHAHA because I remember, I watched some video clips saying that this show is for adults! LOL
Let me find that video and I'll share it with you next time.
Another cartoon I mentioned is Happy Tree Friends. When I mentioned the title, another colleague commented, Color me concerned, C. as he can't imagine why these two are the cartoons I mentioned. For him, it's not suitable for kids. HAHAHAHA
The others mentioned Sailor Moon, One Piece, Slam Dunk, Ghost Fighter, and Naruto.
We talked about how these animations affected our lives. Those were the days when we don't need internet connection to watch these.
How about you, which cartoons or anime gave you fond memories of childhood?
Let me know!
Thanks for reading~

To be honest, di talaga ako nakapanood ng cartoons before. Puro sina Mother movies sa abs cbn, if not movie yong series haha. Pero yang Mr. Bean talaga ang the best, malaki na ako nong naka panood ako ng ilang epsiode nyan di naman tapos, lol. Same with tom and jerry puro pahapyaw lang na nood ba.
