The POKEMANIA Strikes Back

June 4, 2008

It did. And it struck like a lightning.

Way, way back years ago, six years to be exact, I have started the collection of a lifetime. Being a young child is pretty boring most especially if you have nothing to deal with. That reason made me think of other things to do aside from playing, playing, and playing. It’s collecting. Collecting Pokemon Trading Cards to be specific.

The first time I watched Pokemon cartoons on TV, I knew there’s something special about this series because it kept my eyes glued to the screen every time I’m watching it. That led me to the mall to hunt for some Pokemon stuffs. I found some action figures and decided to buy them. I just found myself obsessed with Pokemon starting that day.

However, my Pokemon-action-figures obsession soon faded and it was replaced by my would-be collection that time, Pokemon Trading Cards.

I remember being an elementary boy going to school, carrying a dozen or so Pokemon Cards with the purpose of trading or playing with my class mates. And when I got home, the same routine takes place but this time, I do it with my cousins and neighbors.

That was the story six years ago.

Just last week, however, when I was searching my file cabinet for something, my eyes found a small, rectangular wooden box, which contains the Pokemon Cards I have collected. Suddenly, I found myself browsing through hundreds, or probably thousands, of them in my study table. The memories ran through my head as I slowly gather and recall my life as a young boy playing with them. I realized that many years have gone by, yet my collection still stands as a mute witness to my many jovial experiences during childhood. Those days may be over, but not my collection.

Today, I am now officially back into the business of collecting Pokemon Cards. It may seem weird for a teenage boy to do such things but I believe in the saying “Do what makes you happy”. And collecting Pokemon makes me happy so I intend to continue my hobby till I reach my adult years. I love Pokemons. I really do.

Share and Enjoy:
