I have been feeling really nostalgic lately.
My childhood memories and all toys and cartoon characters that i used to play/see on TV.
When i was young, my mother would really spoil us with anything that was cute. She loved those things herself and would buy for us when she goes shopping. She was a child at heart.
So all her interests were somehow rubbed off on me and my sisters.
We grew up with loving stickers collecting. She would buy those Sticker Magazines which featured all the american brands. Mello Smello, BJ, Lisa Frank, Mrs.Grossman, Sandylion, Toots, Hambly... oh i miss them.
What else that represents growing up in the 80's???
- Care Bears (I did have a plush toy... can't recall what happened to it!)...remember the 'care bear stare'?
- Rainbow Brite ( I also had the doll... shud have kept it...it would cost alot now!)
- Smurfs ( I remember watching the cartoon in the evening on TV3)
- Fraggle rock
- Voltron
We also collected alot of Sanrio stuff... from the stationery to the stickers. There was shop in Asia Jaya that was called 'Gift Lane' which had lovely Sanrio merchandise. I still love 'My Melody' and 'Little Twin Stars'. Have tried looking up all those vintage sanrio merchandise on Ebay but they really cost a bomb now!
I really wished i treasured those items that I had in my childhood more last time.
