P.S. This is not an Adele.song.

We have been bad or maybe naughty or kinda silly when we were young. Or adventurous. Sugar cane, santol or cotton fruit, water melon, peanuts and corn. Those.are just.what we used to ahmm, stole when we were young. How many times we were caught? Twice. The owner of the sugar cane, saw us and we ran and hide and ended up, scratching our arms; the leaves of the sugar cane are itchy. Second was, the cotton fruit..me and my friends climbed once.and the owner get mad, saying we should have told him or asked him for free fruits. It is just funny how crazy and adventurous we were. Have you been good when you were kids or younger? *This discussion was "inspired" from @salonga 's story.

Sometimes we do silly things when we are young but mostly there is no malice intended. It is mostly just high spirits.

We used to 'scrump' apples - it must have been very annoying for the owners.

@Lucky15 Sorry Reine - it's English slang. Scrumping is taking fruit off trees that don't belong to you.

I'm glad to belong to the generation where play means going outside with other kids in the neighborhood. We used to do everything you said. The adventures are really awesome.

Back in my childhood days we would sneak into neighbors yards and steal fruit from their trees

If not getting fruits from my neighbors is considered being a good girl, then yes, I was good. Hihi! But of course, I, too, had my own share of naughtiness as a kid.

I used to climb into the fruit trees in the garden of my Grandmother and eat too much fruit, but otherwise the mischief I got up to was mainly falling myself silly @Lucky15 :D

I'm sure I got into trouble lots of time when i was young. We lived in an orchard and had a huge garden so we could eat whatever we picked and often we had to pick a lot for dinner for mom.

Aw, that photo of you and your friends playing is adorable! When I was young the only mistake I made was to eat only junk food like chips and candy and I was skinny as a twig.

It is very normal for kids to do some silly things. Recalling them, it makes you have a good laugh over what you did as a child. I am trying hard to think of some, but it does not occur to me. Anyway, I appreciate your discussion.
