231 : Childhood memories.

*Ring Ring*
The sound of our pattering feet fill the house as my brother and i rush towards the ringing house phone.
I picked up the phone, both taking a deep breath, it begin..

"Twinkle twinkle little star!! How i wonder what you are!! Up above the world so high like..."

Totally ignoring the hellos' of the person on the other side, we go on singing on the top of our lungs. We were polite boys though, ending with a "Thank you, Bye bye", before putting down the phone.

We were 5, you can't blame us..
Upon finding out the number of people to fall victim to our nursery rhyme concerts , we were banned from answering the phone for a good few years..

Was having dinner with Mum and siblings today when the topic of our childhood life came up. All the little funny things that we could remember just left us laughing throughout dinner. So i decided to blog a few of them out before they go into a little box in my brain, never to be open again..

Around the same time as our singing over the phone, obviously before we were caught, we received a call. My sister picked up and there wasn't any sound on the other side. It was clear the phone had problems but we were too young to know.  My sister called my brother and I over and we started screaming the most random things over the phone. One of which was our favourite line : 'Put your head in the toilet bowl and flush it!'. I don't remember which program we got that from but i think we said it a good few times over the phone. When we got bored, we just hanged up.. And that's when it happen..
We could hear heavy foot steps upstairs and that could only mean one thing, mum is angry. She stomped down the stairs and screamed : "YOU TOLD YOUR AUNT TO DO WHAT??? FLUSH HER HEAD DOWN THE TOILET BOWL??". Being the oldest, my sister took full responsibility, of denying everything..  And we got away with it..

In the year 2000, something happened and my dad was hospitalized.
Still young, my sister went to visit my dad in the hospital.
He had the heart monitor finger clip on. Curious, my sister told my dad "Pa! I want that!". Before anyone could say anything, she pulled it out and started clipping it on her own finger.
*Peeeeeeeeeeppppppp*
The nurses rushed in in the state of panic. The electrocardiography machine was in the familiar dead person straight line because my sister pulled out the monitor..
