Hi guys welcome back. Thanks so much for hanging out with the Kumaars. We are so excited. Today we're
going to be reacting to another JinnyboyTV video. You might remember recently we reacted
to somewhere only in Malaysia, you can find it up here. And we absolutely loved it, and you guys
seemed to enjoy it as well. And left us a whole lot of other suggestions about other videos we should
watch. And this was one we got a lot of comments about. It's called my generasi...is that generosity?
No it's not generosity. It's my generation, which is the English for my generasi. So basically JinnyboyTV
put together this little skit about all the things that happened during his generation back in
the day. I relate a lot to this video because these are the same things that happened to me.
It is the same as my generation back in the day as well. Honestly speaking I already watched this
video, but Rachel has not watched this video yet. It is her first time I am super excited to share.
And for her to get a glimpse of all the things that I went through growing up. So let's dive into it.
You.
No. Behind you.
Pendek. Front.
What in the world is happening there? So basically that's
uh it's like assembly. Okay. So school assembly that happens every single morning. Before you go
into like your classes. But what is with the arms on the shoulders and the feet separating what
is this? Those are the things that they get you to you know for discipline, for to move your body. Why?
That's what they do, they're kids right. And then the grumpy teacher. And then he was like
pendek, he's telling the shorty in the back come in front. That would not fly in America.
Teachers are strict. Uh but yeah, that's how it was.
Excuse me.
Thank you.
Really?
Oh my gosh. It's kind of true right. Like it was a lot of like competition.
Everyone's comparing to each other. Like who has the best pencils. And who has the best bag.
And water bottles and things like that. But I think that last one that's exaggerating. That
doesn't happen. But the first three, all the kids will like compare with each other
look what I have, look what I have, you know. That happens it happens at schools here in America
too. Where especially the backpack is a big thing. You know who has the coolest backpack? Is it
Batman or is it Pikachu or whatever it may be. So I can see that's pretty relatable here too. Yeah yeah.
Aww, isn't that so cute? That's actually all really true. I don't understand the part with the notebook
and how it had all of her information on. I know. That is so nostalgic. Everyone in school will
have like a little book. And everyone you meet throughout your school lifetime you would like
give your book to them. And they like fill out their details in that. No way. Yeah your horoscope,
your date of birth, your nickname. You know like fun information like that. And then you'll have
a book of like all your friends. That's so cute. Like a little contact book. Yeah and then some have like little
testimonials that they write on each other's you know page and all that. That's really cute. I think the
closest thing we have to that here is at the end of every year you get a yearbook. Do you have
yearbooks? We do yeah. And you sign notes and you write little fun things to your friends. And you
can look back at it years later and see what they said. But nothing like that. That's really cute. Yeah.
Yeah it's super awesome, so nostalgic. And facebook wasn't a thing back when you were in school. Yeah it wasn't
a thing. But all those things like writing little notes and passing in front. That's the way you get
to know people. That's how it was done back in my generation. It's really sweet I like it a lot.
I understand nothing. Nothing right now.
What is what is this? Oh I almost want to tear right now like thinking about all this.
These are all like little games we would play in school. This is called batu seremban I think.
It's basically like little, I think sand, it's little packets of sand that's sewn together.
They throw up and throw down. And the girls will play batu seremban usually. But the one before that
with the fingers and everything, those are the ones that I think the guys would usually play.
We used to play that. I'm not sure about what girls and guys play because I went to
all guys school. I went to La Salle in Klang. But that hand one is another game we'd play.
And it's...oh my gosh. What is it, what is the point of that game? It's just like... it's um you know like
when you arm wrestle. Like that's the winner and the loser. Yeah like it's kind of like that, but
it isn't like an arm wrestling type of game. You play with your fingers, you gotta hit the other
person's finger. And if you hit it the right way and if it's like bent or whatever then you get to
go to the next level. And I don't know who created this game, but it was brilliant. This is how we
filled our time. It's like arm wrestling combined with rock paper scissors. Is what it sounds like
to me. There's not a lot of force involved as arm wrestling. But yeah, yeah maybe the concept
is similar. That's really cute. Yeah. Let's see, let's see what else.
Remember remember? Yeah the erasers. Yeah we did another reaction video to Operasi Koperas. It was
about all the erasers and that was the game I was talking about. This is it. You were telling me about
this yeah. Yeah. So and how you win this is once you flip it over, if it goes over the other person's
eraser, you win. Oh. So you just have to keep doing that. Simple enough. Hey takes a lot of skills.
This was before smartphones and everything. This is when you actually had to be creative to fill
your time. Oh yeah. I think there's a lot more games is going to show, check this out.
Remember this? This game is called Pepsi Cola. A couple of years ago, I think when we were dating
because you might have not been there. She was in India at the time. I introduced this game to
a bunch of my American friend. And they loved it. And they actually called it the kicking leg game.
That name makes more sense than Pepsi Cola. Yeah I know. I couldn't justify why it's called Pepsi Cola.
I really don't know. If you guys know why it's called Pepsi Cola, leave it down in the comment below.
But that's what we call it here and they loved it. I remember one of my friend called me
up the next day like, hey can we go outside and play the kicking leg game? I'm like yeah
let's do it. I gotta teach you this game one day. I would love to learn. It's great.
That game was really popular among the girls. It's called lompat getah
I think. All the girls will play that. So two girls will like stand on each side holding that rope
that's made out of rubber. Okay. And then they'll jump and do all this like fun things go over it.
I don't know how you actually like play that game. That's what I was gonna ask what's the purpose? It's just to
jump over the rope. I don't know. If you guys know let her know. Because
I never play that game. It's among all the girls usually. So yeah explain it to her.
So much I don't understand. I know it's like all these different games. The one where he stepped
on the little soda can. We were playing soccer. You've always talked about that. You've talked
about if you don't have a soccer ball you'll just use whatever you can make. You'll tape
together a ball, use soda cans. Soda can is a very popular one actually, because it's very easy right.
You always have like soda cans around so just step on it and you can kick it and play soccer. That's
how I play soccer. I have never played it like that, but I've seen it in American movies, where the kids
play with the soda can. But I want to know what's going on with the bottle cap. Oh that's another game you
do the, it's like soccer, the concept of the game is soccer. Like two goalposts you gotta like angle it,
and shoot, and you gotta score. So you can use your hand to help guide it. They help guide it and yeah.
There's rules, everyone sets like specific rules and limits. I love all these sweet little
games that just really show what your childhood was like. Yeah this is fun for me. It's great.
That's cute. We had some of those same things growing up too. We had the bubbles he blew up.
We had the little draw the square game. Oh you did. We did but it looked different than that.
Theirs you make like diamonds. Ours you make squares. Doesn't matter, I'm sure. And the pencils
where you put the lead in. If you lose one of those pieces your pencil doesn't work anymore. Yeah.
But those are things that happened in my generation. All the little games all the things that happen.
Basically all around school is what I see the theme here. Just bringing back so many memories
of how it was back then. Life is so different today. I don't know, is it the same in schools?
Nowadays we have like technology, phones, and things like that. So the kids in school these days I think
they might be into so many other things. But back in the day this is what we did. It was really cool
to get a little glimpse into what your childhood looked like Because here in America school looks
very very different. So that was pretty neat. Do you know what any like fun games they would pay
here in school? I would say with like the jumping over the rubber thing, we do a lot of jump rope.
And there's one called double dutch, where you have two going you have to jump through.
Um with the bottle cap one, there's one where you fold a piece of paper and you play football.
Oh we have that too. But it's folded into a triangle right? Yeah yeah. Yeah and then you gotta
flick it on top. Yeah yeah. We got that too. But we... it's American football, so you make a goal post
like this. Yep like this. We call it rugby. I mean for us it's rugby. That is perfect. I love that. Yup.
Yup yeah. So those are some of the games that we would play. So there are some similarities huh. There are.
Yeah we don't know who's stealing from who. But who cares, we're all having fun. It's really creative
play, I love it so much. And it's great to see like how we used so little and all the things that we
had. To come up with all these creative games right. Yeah. And to make use of our time. Now thinking back,
it takes a lot of energy, creativeness to come up with those kind of things.
So I guess we were using our time wisely . I think so. And friendship like making skills and yeah.
I mean you even talk about your friends you grew up with. They're still your best friends to this day.
And you've lived in America for nine years. Yeah. I'm still really really close with a lot of my
high school friends till today. It doesn't really happen as much here. Because America is so big and
a lot of people like move to different states and all. You don't really get to see them. In Malaysia
it's a little bit more condensed you know. And it's smaller obviously. So you have a chance to meet the
same people over and over again. So you can really keep friendships going. Yeah. But I love seeing this
it was really fun. I loved how light-hearted it was. And I really want to watch more JinnyboyTV
videos now. She's a huge fan of JinnyboyTV videos. She can't stop talking about it.
