Good Ol' Time

Who doesn't love Dinosaurs?!

.................................

Okay, most people don't love dinosaurs. They ate people, they were cruel, they were predators, and many more bloody reasons people might state. Well, you're true, though. But I was once obsessed with Dinosaurs. I still am, probably.

I can blame my elder brother for this, actually. He was the one who was totally obsessed with Dinosaurs back then. He posted many posters of Dinosaurs in our room (Yes, 'our'. Back then when I was 5, we slept together with Mom and Dad), and all of the posters had the names of the Dinosaurs in it. Mom and Dad also bought him heaps of books about Dinosaurs (and snake, and insects, and whales, well, he was an fauna fetish) and when he read, I always sat next to him so that I could read it too.

They say kids' memories last forever. I believe that, cause probably that's why those Dinosaurs names still stuck in my mind till this very second. But well, my elder brother is still the one who remembers nearly every kind of Dinosaur, until today.

As a kid, you know I had my favorite Dinosaurs. And they are...

Stegosaurus

This Dino used to be my first favorite Dino cause Stegosaurus was herbivorous. I hated carnivorous Dinos. I read an article about Dinosaurs just recently and I found out that Stegosaurus was the dumbest Dino cause they had the smallest brain with that size of body. Heart-breaking.

Triceratops
Not long till I crushed on another Dino. Again, a herbivorous one. They might look slow and dumb but from my point of view, they look like a wise woman somehow. This wise-woman figure popped out in my mind since I was 5. Oh and they were featured on Jurassic Park movie too! The scene when Ellie examined the sick Triceratops one. ♥

Pteranodon

This is the latest favorite Dino of mine. This one's different cause Pteranodon was a carnivorous. One reason why I loved them was that they fly (I know some there's still some other Dinos that fly but I only loved Pternodon). But when I watched Jurassic Park III, it kinda broke my heart that Pteranodon was cruel that he almost killed Dr. Alan and his people and that boy, Eric.

Back then when we were kids, my brothers also had their favorite too. And they are...

Tyrannosaurus Rex 

(Also known as T-Rex)

My eldest brother's favorite. The carnivorous, the big (not biggest), the most famous and well-known for the cruelty (might as well be the most cruel Dino ever), probably that's why they put them as the main role in Jurassic Park movie. (Remember the scene when Alan, Ellie and another man driving a car chased by T-Rex? That was kinda breath-taking!) Until this day, sometimes I look my brother as if he were a T-Rex. I don't know why.

Velociraptor

(Also known as Raptor)

 My elder brother's favorite. The carnivorous, the famous, the fastest and the smartest Dino. Raptors are defined to be not too big, smaller than they were in Jurassic Park movies. They always played quite important role, both in Jurassic Park and Jurassic Park III movie. (Remember the kitchen scene between the Raptors and the kids in Jurassic Park? Or the stolen egg of  Raptor in Jurassic Park III? I do!) And until this day,sometimes I also still see my elder brother as if he were a Raptor. This is weird, I know.

I still remember some of Dinosaurs name. From Brachiosaurus to Diplodocus, from Iguanodon to Elasmosaurus. Well, like they always say, Kids' memories last forever..
