Fun in the arcade
The last time that I had fun in the Arcade was when I was with my siblings and we were able to ride the bump cars until the mall closed down for the day. I can’t remember the exact date but I remember the youthful experience like it was just yesterday.
Last Monday, I experienced again the “feel” of Arcade and being with young adults. Hehehe.. I’ve long considered myself as a full-grown matured individual with childish attitudes. I never really got the chance to play the arcade since I came from a middle class family. The games I grew up with are street games like patintero, cha-to, tumbang preso, habulan upo, football, and other games where there are a lot of physical activities and one shed a lot of sweat. So just like the Barbie doll story, I experienced the arcade when I was not so young anymore.
The game that I played a lot was the Race. This is my chance to drive like hell, over speed without being apprehended and have my car turtle turn without me dying or injuring anybody. The game costs 20 bucks. Then there was this humpy-dumpy game. All you need to do is hit Humpy Dumpy (who is sitting by the wall) til he falls down. This will test your aim. I got plenty of tickets from this game (around 6 I think hehehe). Game costs 15 bucks. As it turned out, I discovered that I’m quite gifted, I aim and I hit. The last game I remember is the Duckpin bowling. Game consists of 5 frames. I got good scores. It costs 20 bucks. All in all, when I exchanged the tickets that I won—I was able to bring home…
A keychain.
Wahahahha!! Mind you, it’s a pucca keychain.
