,,, what would your five-year-old self do first?

It's long winded, but I got asked this today and it *really* made me think.
If m 5 year old self was in my current body I would probably try to go shopping or something; As a young kid I often snuck out the house to go to shops even at 6 am,, 8pm,, I had no sense of danger so I would've just gone for it when I got the chance.
 
I loved (still love) animals so I'd probably play with my dog. Or I'd go off and find my old toys and play with those. I didn't really start playing video games or using computers, phones, etc. until I was about seven or eight.

Wait. I'd probably raid the freezer and get as much ice cream as I could carry.

I'd be a walking mute, not interacting with anybody just watching the world go by, I doubt my bigger brain would help my 5 year old self much either :)
 
Uhh... I bet my 5 year old self would probably just scream in the mirror for a good long while, lmao. For real though, I wanted a dog really bad when I was a kid, but never got one until now, so I'd definitely play with my lil puppy ♥
 
"Why the **** do i have a girlfriend"
 
I would probably go buy a bunch of toys/gel pens (gel pens were the coolest). Maybe I would go to Costco and get free samples without the need of parental consent B)

I just found my soul mate right here... I wanted to be a sample lady so much when I was a kid cause I thought they got paid in samples... Lol...

Honestly my five year old self would probably be disgusted that I smoke and flush my cigarettes (not a bad choice at all, if I'm being honest...). Then Id be delighted in figuring out how to work my 3ds and probably wind up messing up my ACNL town...

Oh god this. Imagine all the junk I would buy with my money!! I’d no doubt stick up on junk food and probably erasers and textas that smelt like grapes and whatever else...
This is a dangerous situation.
 
get all the sweets and crisps i can finally reach from the top cupboard
 
My 5yo self would scream at first: "OHHHHH SO MANY ANIMALS IN MY HOME"
After having a cuddle & play attack with 9 animals, I would probably buy the 18+ games
that I wanted back then :3
 
Might wonder why I play so many video games now.
I never (well rarely) played video games a lot when I was younger, just watched TV a lot or going outside to play.

Head off to the nearest bookstore and get whatever I wanted. As a child, we hit the library often, but books of my own were more often given for a good report card or birthday/holiday.

Actually now that I think about it, five-year old me in a bookstore is not much different than forty-*mumble*-year old me. ;)
 
i would probably start running around my bedroom and throwing the stuffed animals because i used to HATE them lol
and i would go crazy for the cake we have now
 
Oh jeez, I think 5-year-old me would have an existential crisis being not what their mother said they were supposed to be and finding out they're married. They would also really enjoy the freedom of no mother telling them what they had to do
 
I'd prob just buy a bunch of toys tbh
And jump on the bed since my mom leaves me home alone now and wouldn't see me doing it
 
I honestly don't really remember what I was doing at 5 years old. Probably playing with Legos and stuffed animals, and the 32 cats I had xDD (Now that I think about it, I'm not much different than I used to be...)

I think I would still be doing what I do now... go to the park when I'm bored :p
