Cartoon Characters

Someone started a trend with this post in Facebook today:


Please change your facebook profile picture to your favorite childhood cartoons/characters and invite your friends to do the same. Until Monday there should be no human faces on facebook, but an invasion of memories. Support the worldwide protest against child violence.
It's probably the only Facebook meme that I participated in. Seeing everyone post cartoon characters from shows we used to watch brings back so many childhood memories. I like the idea behind the trend as I don't think anyone wants to condone violence against children. But looking at everyone's profile pics today I'm not sure if the cause is being heard. I feel like everyone's just posting to reminisce about the old times. I think I did it because of that. (Plus it gave me a reason to change profile pics cause I don't want to look at my face anymore. hee.) It just reminds me of how much I miss my childhood and how happy I was as a child. 


I actually found it a bit hard to remember which show was the one I liked the most because there were so many. And looking at the other's photos there were also a lot that I didn't watch. I remember not liking any anime's but I watch it sometimes because everyone was talking about it and my sister loved it. 


I always said that I miss being a child. This is probably a reason why I still act like a child at 23. I was never the kid who wanted to grow up quickly. I wanted to enjoy my childhood though looking back I did like more "mature" stuff when I was a kid. But all in all those were good times. I'd love to be able to go back to that time when all I worried about was school, food, sleep and TV.

OFF SEASON

The tennis season will be over in a few days after the Davis Cup Final between Serbia and France. The finals look exciting but I'm not keen on watching it. But I do hope Serbia takes the tie! Nole deserves to win a big title this season. AJDE!


But after this weekend there's nothing to look forward to other than the exhos which won't be televised other than the FEDAL one. I know the off season for tennis is very short, one month at least, compared to other sports but when you're used to reading news, blog, match results everyday I think that you'll feel that it's going to be a long wait 'til January arrives. I think twitter users will feel it even more because their timeline won't be as busy as it was when matches are going on. I won't have a lot to back read now when I get home which means more time for me do nothing. Or maybe try doing something productive.


Oh well, maybe all tennis fans need the break because as much as we love the game you do get tired of it too by the end of the season (just like the players). But I seriously can't wait for January! Being a Rafa fan 2010 has been amazing and I'm looking forward to a greater 2011. Goodbye Tennis. For now. :D
