Idiotbox



I hardly watch the idiotbox. Given the circumstances of my living conditions, you'd think its normal. But even when I am on long (is two weeks deemed long??) holiday breaks, or in the last four weeks that I've permanently moved back home, you wouldn't find me in front of the idiotbox either. It's that I just don't have time! I just can't sit still in front of the box for hours at the time when there's that fat book I've been wanting to pick up. just. sitting. there...

Though, I've follow television series such as Big Bang Theory, Chuck and my newest addiction for 2 Broke Girls, I very seldom sprint off on marathon sessions on the couch until 5 am for consecutive days.

It is beyond me how people can engulf a forty episode drama series; 40 minutes per episode, in just three days. How?!! No need sleepeatshit is it?


Though...


I grew up watching A LOT of cartoons and children's programme, when I mean A LOT — it's alot! This pair of glasses comfortably perched on the bridge of my nose is a dead giveaway. I must have watched every episode of Sesame Street, twice at least D:

I remember how I used to wake up at 8 every morning to catch my fav cartoons on telly as a kid — no alarms necessary. Talk about dedication!

Sometimes I wish these cartoons would continue on, as I genuinely believe the cartoons of my generation were the best, and well suited for generation today as well.

Flipped through Cartoon Network recently and I have absolutely no idea what is so appealing about the cartoons now, or perhaps I'm growing up?
