Multa lume este de parere ca persoanele nascute acum 20, 30 sau mai multi ani au avut o copilarie radical diferita de cea a micutilor de astazi. Nu stiu ce sa spun. Da, s-au schimbat multe lucruri, insa esenta a ramas aproximativ aceeasi. Practic, facem aceleasi lucruri pe care le faceam si acum zeci de ani, doar ca intr-un alt mod.
Noi n-am avut vreun smartphone ca sa comunicam. Dar am avut strigatul mamei, careia ii crestea tensiunea la balcon de fiecare data cand ne vedea cocotati pe vreo bara aflata in parcul din fata blocului. Am avut si biletelele sfasiate din spatele caietului de mate, pe care le expediam cu nonsalanta pe sub bancile din sala de clasa. Iar oracolul pe care il dadeam la completat tuturor amicilor s-a transformat astazi in Facebook si alte zeci de aplicatii.
Imi amintesc cum obisnuiam sa construim „corturi” din paturi in gradinile din fata blocului, iar bunica era nevoita sa imi arunce pachetul cu mancare pe geam. In apartament, ma instalam sub umbrele si imi imaginam ca tocmai mi-am construit o casuta in mijlocul unei paduri fermecate.
„Conduceam” un Pegas rosu, iar micile accidente pe care le aveam in „excursiile” din cartier se soldau cu zeci de rani pe care le acopeream mereu cu frunze, pentru a scapa de bandajele bunicii.
Spre deosebire de astazi, ma interesau mai mult hainutele papusilor decat ale mele. Imi placea la nebunie sa le confectionez fel de fel de tinute si adoram sa desenez viata asa cum mi-ar placea mie sa fie.
Era mai liniste decat astazi. Nu faceam cumparaturi din supermarketuri si nu aveam nevoie de ciocolata scumpa. Eram pur si simplu in extaz daca primeam o guma Turbo, o inghetata la cornet sau niste suc de la TEC … bineinteles, cumparate de la faimosul ABC de la colt 🙂

Many people believe that those born 20, 30 or even more years ago had a totally different childhood than ours. I don’t know what to say. Yes, many have changed, but, practically, we do the same things in another way.
We didn’t have a smartphone. But we had our mothers who used to yell at us each time they saw us hanging from the monkey bars in the park. We also used to tore paper from the back of the copybook and use it to send messages underneath the desks of our classrooms. The famous `oracle` that everyone shoud fill in has been replaced with Facebook and other tons of apps.
I remember how I used to build `tents` in front of the block and my grandmother had to throw sandwiches out the window. I built tents inside the apartment as well, but in this case I used umbrellas.
I was `driving` a red Pegas and the small accidents I had with the bicycle left me with small wounds I used to cover with leaves.
Unlike today, I was more interested in my dolls’ clothes than in mine. I loved to make them clothes and brush their hair and I very much liked to draw
Everyhting was more silent than today. We didn’t shop in supermarkets and I was more than happy when I received a Turbo gum, an ice cream cone or some TEC juice … of course, all these were bought from the famous ABC-shop around the corner 🙂
