best/warmest memories from childhood

Hey, I watched TMNT and Spider-Man too!

I mostly stayed inside and read when I was very young. There wasn't a whole lot to do in my neighborhood and it wasn't safe outside. Once my parents had some money and we moved to a nicer house in a nicer neighborhood, then the memories like this started to be formed.

We used to do that xxxx too. That's hillarious.

Also, with thta kid Sevag, me and my brother would hitch on trains. There was a rail road that passed by my grandmas house all the time. He would jump on the train, and it would take us soo far to these factories. And then we would simply follow the train tracks back to our grandmas house which was one of those old Soviet apartment complexes built during the Soviet projects boom.

And then we would also burn and melt that cheesy metal called "archeech", remember? We would make little mini daggers out of it and stuff like that.

And one time, this kid burned a bunch of dead shrubs and bushes right at the base of my grandmas building and I chased him to try to beat him up but I could never catch him. And then we were putting out the fire which wasn't big or anything, just a small fire, using sand. Haha.

And then right behind the garages where the train tracks were, on the other side there was construction going on and I remember as kids we would always sneak in and steal wood or nails or hammers. And I guess it's that beauty of Communism since they didn't own anything (from the building they were building to the tools or pieces of wood there), they just left all the crap there.

Damn, when I think about it, I did all this shyt before I was 7, which means I was a little kid, since it was at 7 we left for the Capitalist USA.

Somethings I miss..

Going to my cousins house practically every single weekend and just doing what kids do. Playing around in his front yard, we even made our own club house and I was in charge of keeping it together. We were notorious on the streets of Hollywood.

I also miss my Ninja Turtle toys. I used to love that show and had all kinds of toys.

Gooooooooooooooooooooood times. Best times, actually.

Me too! Dont forget strawberry shortcake, hugga bunch and the traditional carebares. Not with the theme song that goes: "care bear count down 4, 3, 2, 1.." like they play now a days, but the original! The best! that goes: " Oh I wanna be a carebear oh wouldent it be great to be a carebear and do the things that carebears do, oh I want to be a carebear like you! You do?..." hehe....yeahhhhh. And do you happen to remember the reallly really old hercules show??? Anyone here remember it? THe animated one? Or the poochie show?

I also remember the good old days living with my grandparents and uncle. We had to move in with them after our house got robbed. My sister and I would share a room with my uncle who was in his 20's at the time. He would be doing everything I'm doing now - going to parties and just enjoying his life. I like how I was around to see him doing all those fun stuff.

I also remember him coming home late every night and watching "Three's Company" with us, as he ate cereal in the biggest bowl I've ever seen. I also miss sitting around with my family eating corn or sunflower seeds and watching TV.

Gotta a fun story from when I was 10 and me and my fam were staying in a sanatorium/resort on the Sevan shore during summer. Every friday night the management would show a movie in the theater that was in the sanatorium and in the morning they would put up a poster with the name of it and what it was about. I, being a dirty little boy, decided to play a hoax. I made up this elaborate poster that looked like all the real ones that contained the name of some sex movie (made up name) and wrote that it was an erotica. During those times in Armenia even heavy kissing scenes were somewhat riske, so imagine what an erotica movie would do. Anyways, thursday night I went up with my brother and put it up. I wanted to run away, but my bro told me to just walk away slowly and not attract any attention.

Anyways, the next day there was total mayhem in the place. All 600 (or whatever was the number) tenants were going crazy with both shock and excitement that the resort would show erotica. I couldn't stop grinning and cracking up as I heard adults talk about it, my creation. It was crazy. The management was so angry. Ripped the thing to shreds and put up signs everywhere saying it was a lie.

Good times.
