Suddenly missing

i was thinking of how i'm currently still hoping to find my missing letter and that this hide-and-seek game is too tiring. then suddenly, i missed playing my childhood games. the moments where i would scream as i ran about and feel the adrenaline rushing through me. ahh, wish i could do that again. wish i had all that energy and zest in me. wish i was still naive to everything. wish i was still full of potential to overcome anything. 

wishing, that's all i'm doing. what a lazy thing i am. next time i meet my old friends, i think i'll suggest a game of ice-and-fire or taxi. we'd be awkward about it i suppose but then this is the only option available to relive that part of my life. that or dream.......

was talking about this once during dinner with my friend. her reply was that "All you need is a playground." it somehow made sense, but no playground it designed for older and more heavier people is there? still i would also need playmates to actually enjoy said playground. Now i'm reminded of how lonely an empty playground is hahahahaha...

i'll end this before i get more nostalgic and sad. below are explanations to the games, i hope i got it right.

note: 
ice-and-fire> where the amount of people are separated equally into the groups of ice and fire. the ices are then to chase and freeze all the fire to win the game. but, the fires are allowed to save their friends by touching them and yelling fire. to freeze the fire, the ices have to touch and yell ice. i forgot, can the ice turn to fire? i think you can or else wouldn't the game just be never ending?

taxi (my school's version?) > where everyone was to never touch the ground and there was one enemy. the enemy was to close his/her eyes and touch around to find people. once touched you're out of the game. ahh, this game is abit like hide-and-seek huh.

hide-and-seek> do i even need to explain? its a famous game among kids of many cultures still it may differ right. so, basically there is again only one enemy. he/she was to count to a certain number and then seek for those who went to hide when he was counting. warning: when he/she was counting, that person must have closed their eyes.

  1. we have a playground at home. let's go there wen u come back. three people playing would probably end very quickly tho. and nana will probably win considering how fast she runs.
