Thirty-Seven

Ok, so I was watching Pokemon today (11 am, every Saturday, only on Kids Central).
As some of you might now, I used to be this huuuuge fan of Pokemon. I was around Primary Two to Primary 5 at that time. You know, when I was still a kid. I watched all the episodes, no sweat. I even had Pokemon erasers, Pokemon collectible cards, Pokemon tabung, Pokemon shirts: heck, I even had my Tok make me a Pokemon bag and a Pokemon bolster. I used to sell those Pokemon bags at school, remember? Who would have thought I'd be a trendsetter (though, admittadly, not the best of trends)? Less than 2 bucks each, and highly fashionable.
I even remember this one incident when people started accusing Pokemon as a satanic show. Anyone remember that? Boy, was I mad, and I didn't hide that fact either. I'd say to anyone who was willing to listen: "Pokemon maknenye Pocket Monsters, bukan setan!" I was angry and indignant beyond imagination, so much that I almost cried. Yup, I was that in love with the show. And it didn't help that
Ash Ketchum Pikachu was cute, either.
So, anyway. I was watching the show again today, and Ash was fighting one of those gym battles he has. I could not help but cheer and punch my fist in the air, shouting "Woohoo!" or "Yessa!" (Please take note that Mona and Loi were watching too, and they were not as excited as I was, proving just how mature I am). I couldn't help it! I felt like a kid again, and well, the battle was cool.
So, I'm dedicating this post to Ash Ketchum, the
cute boy who is still 10 years old throughout all these 4 years. (Sadly, he's too short for me)
