I did all of these, then I worry so much as a child too. One day I swallowed Orange seed and ask my 'omniscience' brother what will happen to me, he said 'an Orange tree will grow on your head, simple' I was disturbed: 'how will I take bus to school with a tree on my head? I began to cry. I dont know days of the week then, on fridays the other kids would be saying 'lizard will teach anyone that come to school tomorrow'. This confuses me alot.

Apart from riding tyres with sticks, i did nearly all of what the op mentioned. I had always wondered the joy my mates got from stressing themselves with those sticks and tyres, I remenber the tyres were always falling. **open kolo was also popular**

Sometimes you fight with the tyres too! The standing tyre wins after colision, and it becomes yours, but where to keep this booty is a problem. You look for a carcerol cover and iron hanger, good to go on errands all over the place in the sun. I fought mom for borrowing my kolo-money and not paying back. She'll say 'but its my money now'. I will cry 'no its the money I save!' Mom: 'but its my balance you have been keeping all along now!' Me: 'No its my money for food that I kept!'. My mum: 'Ok, who gave you the food-money?' Then I'll start the tantrum all over again, until she's fed up and promise to pay me. 'my husband, I'm sorry, I'll pay you 2moro'. ~Mama...I wanna take this time to thank you, for giving me love~.
