Topic of the Day: Memories.
Memories.
I don't have that many. I have a horrible memory. But YOU. What do you remember? The first day of kindergarten? The day you discovered your thumbs?
November 4.
I will remember this day for a long, long time. I got home from school, and ran to the t.v., which is only like two steps, and turned on the news. I watched the news ALL night. And then when Obama won? Wow. I was just. Wow. My mom cried. My dad cussed. It was very exciting. The first black president. This country has come a long way from when it first began. A fabulous journey. Will I say the pledge of allegiance now? No.
Was it the first day of kindergarten?
I think this was the first time I went to my elementary school. It might have been the first day of kindergarten. I'm not sure. But I do remember all the kids having their parents with them. And we got to check out the classroom, meet the teachers, and stuff. I remember I saw a couple kids from my preschool and I flipped. Well, not really flipped. I just avoided them. And then after, my mom took me back to my preschool and I told the teachers there all about my new school.
Pooping in the hallway.
To this day, I am not sure if this was a dream or it really happened. But I remember it. I was standing in the hallway at my grandparent's house and I pooped in my diaper. Then my diaper fell down from the weight of the poop and my parents rushed in with paper towels and cleaned it up. You know, I think it might have been a dream. Or my mom fed me something with a lot of fiber.
That one Christmas. With the broken door.
I am horrible with memories. I think this was Christmas dinner. Or it might have just been a family gathering. So we were all sitting at the dining room table, and my uncles and my dad got all excited and my uncle Dave and uncle Paul wanted to wrestle. Right there, when we were all eating. So they wrestled. And Dave threw Paul through the glass door. Oh, you know what I don't remember? My grandparent's freaking out about their door being transformed to a billion pieces of glass.
Web design camp.
That was a fun week. And an expensive week. It was like $800 to go to this web design camp. But it was fun! I was really quiet, as usual, but I did manage to make a friend. Her name was Danielle. Every day at that camp, we had an hour where we would either go outside and play games, or we would play this computer game called Armegatron or something like that. It was a game like Snake, only with these car things. And we had to choose usernames, and I chose Tiger. No one knew who I was so I would be really mean but no one would guess it was me because I was always so quiet in class. Ha. That was fun.
My first day at the school I am at now.
It's just one of those things you wish you could forget. I am a shy person. So this was scary. All these people I don't know. Ugh. And I remember, on the first day of school, sitting in Ms. Santiago's class, thinking, 'I am going to hate this class'. And guess what? I WAS RIGHT. The worst part of that day, might have been lunch. There were just so many people. All saying things like, 'Oh my gawsh! I haven't seen you in so long!' 'How have you been?' 'Good to see you again!'. I felt so alone. At least I had Hope. Ha. Hope.
So tell me now, what do you remember? Just random things. Tell me in the comments right down there.
