I think that it is important to keep the perspective of a child in your life. Try not to take things too seriously, because they are more likely to get you down if you do. Using this logic, there are a few things in my life that I still do that would probably be considered childish by some. For instance, I still try to drink a glass of milk every night before bed; it has always helped me get to sleep. Also, I can often be found playing with toys like Legos or bouncy balls.
What are some of the things you still do that might come off as childish to others?

I tend to spend too much time on computer games. I started with ones you buy, hen I discovered kongregate.com. Now I'm hooked on some games on Facebook. (Farmville Mafia Wars.)

There are some childish things that I still do until now, even if it's kind of ridiculous sometimes it's fun getting back what you're doing when you were a child. Like playing computer games, playing with my younger siblings, cousins. And going somewhere where kids play...

The child in me has never vanished. At my age I don't really think I should stop the things I used to do when I was a child for as long as it does not make me look like retarded. Of course I don't play with dolls anymore but I still do take time to play with my little ones especially the hide and seek game that I so enjoyed when I was a kid. Now I am taking some time to be with them in enjoying this game even once in a while. I also do teach and join them in enjoying some sit-down games that I used to play when I was a kid such as sintak, hand to hand game and many more.

When I'm happy I can be seen skipping through malls or on certain sidewalks here and there. I always liked skipping.
Before Hot Topic existed, I used to like to dress goth and freak out the Christians who would gather at Borders & Barnes &Noble on sunday after church. Now that goth is mainstream, it's just not as fun anymore. I went to Hot Topic Tonight after seeing the movie,"Kick A$$;"which is really funny, it made me wanna be a super Hero! The "New Moon" clothes have taken over hot topic. I couldn't find anything I wanted there, except for these totally awesome corsets they have there for $24 in all sorts of colors.

Hi,
I do those things in private. I have so many of them, but most interesting one is that I really love reading fairy tales. I have borrowed a book from my friend. Its complete illustrated series of Hans Christian Anderson. I also loved Grimm Brothers. Its just that I have read them so many times. I also love watching animations and films made for children. I have two cousins, two girls. I have seen that I don't mix up well with the elder. But the younger one take me as her friend, she can't even distinguish that I am quite older. She actually thinks I am a child too. May be I don't wanna grow up myself.
Thanks
God bless you

No, not really, I am incredibly mature and sensible.... (nightmare!!!)
My sons buy me great presents like singing dogs, puppet theatres, kids craft toys etc, I like to splash in puddles, blow bubbles, dress up, cut my hair, draw chalk footprints round the outside of the house, bubble painting, finger painting, make playdough and gloop, write letters from Rudolph, pull faces - so,nothing childish there
I dont mind getting older but I dont want to grow up

I tend to do a lot of child like things, now I am not childish, its just that I have a little girl and there are not much kids around her, and as a result I try to play and tell her lots of stories about growing up. So ultimately I end up doing alot of things children do.
