Culture

As I grow up abroad my culture was different than many of those who grew up here. Why? The cartoons and programs that I have watched when I was a little kid were different, and if one is the same it has a different name. Once I was talking with my cousin about a cartoon serial that I watched; it was called SARA; I told her that she was an Indian girl her mother died and her father took her to London to join a boarder school. Suddenly my cousin said “Oh, you mean Sally?” I said “No, her name was Sara”, “No I am sure she is Sally” she said. Well, we were both right; Sally is the Arabic version of Sara. Still this was the only program that we both share, nothing else. I watched many programs when I was little, but there were favorites: Marry Poppins L’apperentie Sorciere Postman Pad Gummi Bears Rainbow Brite Care Bears Thomas the Train Popples My Little Pony Sara
