Share with us your’s or your kids’ buchpan k qissay that you never forget!
We all did silly things, believed in weird things, had funny ideas, spoke funny words, when we were young. Write it down here…
Some of my childhood qissays:
I used to think Allah throws down babies from the sky into hospitals and then the parents go to the hospital to pick their baby up! I always wondered why the babies never got caught up in the trees or something?
My favourite game was cycling around the house and making noises of ambulances, police cars, horns etc.
One day, when my mom was busy in the kitchen, my sister took loads of flour and threw it all over the sofas thinking it was surf!
My elder sister got her masculine/feminine all wrong! She would refer to herself as “ata hun, jata hun” and when I corrected her, “aati hun, jaati hun”, we used to have big cat fights!
Qawalis used to scare me bad!!
I could never understand how, at the end of each drama, actors could hold their breath (statue in one place) for so long!
I used to think that the money that people give to the bride and the groom on their wedding helps them to start their business and thats why they don’t ask their parents for money any more!
I remember a few more but I can’t tell u the rest they’re too embarrassing
^ i used to play shadi shadi with my cousins too lol, but for some reason we called it botee botee lollz
cool thread, here are some things i remember
my older sister used to manipulate all games with me, so she always had the best roles,the best parts in the games. she even named all my dolls and decided what clothes they would wear:mad:. we used to play a game where we were cats and would eat crisps from bowls lol(i loved cats)and i realise now my sister only played so she could half my crisps. she used to be so mean to me:( lol
i used to think if a mummy wanted a baby she could just have one,it would just arrive one day. my cousin had a baby brother and i was so jealous, and i remember telling mum i want one too and can she get one
i used to pretend my home was a boarding school and i was a student there lol
i once had a roza(i was about 8/9)and was realllly hungry so decided to give up and made myself some coco pops(my fave cereal as a kid),my sister called me a weakling and i was really angry!cant remember if i kept the roza in the end,hope so!
once i was ill with fever and i woke up in the night, my sisters were still up and chatting, and i called them stupid cows and demanded they give me my key back and then i went back to sleep
thats all i can remember for now, may come back later
^ lol its sounds like u had quite a rough time with ur sisters! haha same here, I’ve got THREE! Love 'em though..
The bit about asking for a baby …
I remember when my friend told me that babies were in a woman’s stomach (i was about 11), I told her she was the biggest fool! lol then I came home and asked my mother “mama bache pait mein hote hain kya?” and she just stared at me like “WTH”!! And then she warned me “kisi k saamne dobara yeh question nahin puchna mein taangein tor dun gi” !
So I went back to school the next day and told my friend how her stupid ideas got me into trouble! Ironically, the same friend of mine is now studying to be a gynae!
not all I hated frocks or anything girly for that matter. I always wanted to dress up like my twin bro.. shorts, trousers etc..I outgrew that phase thankfully..
I couldn’t say the word ‘tamaatar’ and my dad would break it up and ask me to repeat after him like
I used to call :
-my father : pammmpa
-my mother : mammmpa
I couldn't say mama or papa.
and I used to get dressed like a boy and I dressed my brother like a girl.
When I was abt 4 years old, an uncle gave me a chocolate and I said :" Uncle jee, mere bhai ki, ammi ki, abbu ki, khala ki bhi do warna main yeh bhi nahin loongi"
