How many of you have strong childhood X'mas memories with Coca-Cola? I do have scenes that I would share with you.
I remember my Christmastime in my hometown as a child. The children will walk around the neighborhood and visit friends' houses or any houses that signaling they have an open house. With open doors, loud X'mas songs and the welcome shiny ornament hanging on the top of the front doors signaling that the house is welcoming the children to eat cookies and drink soft drinks like Coca-Cola and Orange Juice.
On December 25th each year in Maumbi Indah, my friends and I always walked in teams, or gang up with the kids we know from our school or Sunday School. But we can always easily switch teams and gang up with new friends as we please. The mission was to find a house that served Coca-Cola for children. Yes, so we hunted Coca-Cola.
At noon, we were already bloated with orange juice because most of the houses served orange juice for kids and kept the Coca-Cola for adult guests. But sometimes we get lucky if one or two houses serve Coca Cola for children. Before sunset, we gather around the corner of the street and these little Coca-Cola gangs ask each other, where and which houses serve Coca-Cola? Because we want to end our searching with one last scene, which is drinking Coca-Cola.
We were relentless Coca-Cola Gangsta.
