Spoiled Brats
A post I read on Mysterious In Blue's page made me think a little. We often hear others, or catch ourselves thinking how the younger ones have it SO much easier than we did. And this might be true. If I had had the internet and email all my life, my lazy ass would still be in touch with most the friends I ever had. Or if I had the cool high-tech robotic computer programmable lego's they have today, I'd be a mad scientist.
There are a lot of examples like that, but overall I wouldn't dream of trading my childhood with anyone from this generation. I've had so much fun as a kid with so many things that you just can't do anymore. And my dad and uncles and that whole older generation had it even better!
So I'm tired right now, but I'll update this entry soon and make a list of all the things that I think were better about my childhood and my generation than that of today's youth. So if you're over 25, or had the privelege of growing up in a country or an area where things are still a little more 'old school', post your comments on how and why your childhood was cooler!
