爸爸去哪儿

I've been spending the last two weeks of my holiday catching up on a reality show which my sister chanced upon one mundane afternoon. It's actually a show produced in China...so at first when I saw my sister watching it I was totally turned off. But I swear I made the best decision ever to watch it COZ IT'S ONE FUCKEN NICE SHOW.

Right, so if you have never read/seen anything about this show, it's called 《爸爸去哪儿》 and it's a reality show where 5 celebrity fathers had to bring their child on trips to really deserted places in China and complete certain missions together. There are a total of 12 episodes and every 2 episodes they'll go to a different place.

I really really love how real this show is and how we witness the growth and changes of the kids through each episode. At the beginning, the kids were really shy and they just kept crying! At the start of the show their toys and electronic devices had to be confiscated and will only be returned to them when they leave the place and they all burst into tears almost immediately. It's super hilarious to watch them coz they are so real!

At every place they'd either have to draw lots or compete against each other to see who gets which house. Obviously the houses provided aren't the ideal places to live in...there'll be a best and a worst and it's funny to see who gets the worst and then see how they're gonna deal with the place.

I seriously love all the kids in the show because they're too adorable and innocent. They also keep asking really funny questions and making super hilarious comments about the place, missions and their dads... Even though they all have their own really annoying moments, e.g. crying, throwing a tantrum, refusing to cooperate with the dads, but they're all really real and angelic.

It makes me ponder why there are certain things that seem so simple in a child's world but yet can be so complicated in an adult's mind. It makes me think a lot on why growing up changes a person's actual self. I would like to think these children would grow up and stay the same - innocent and naive, but that's really just impossible. A child's world is so beautiful; it's just sad to know they'll be disappointed as they grow up because that's how society is.

Take some time out of your busy lifestyle to watch the show and you'll find yourself being less stressful about life and learning to look at the simpler things instead. One of the shows I'd recommend to ANYONE - whether you're a guy or a girl, whether you're 15 or 50, whether you're quiet or noisy, whether you're boring or happening, you have to watch it.
