now carry in with the shenanigans...

Earliest thing I recall is being on a plane, perhaps looking out the window onto a tarmac. It's very, very vague.

In my first few summers, I flew with my parents and sister frequently to Nashville to visit my father's side of the family. This must be what I'm recalling.

I remember various things from when I was about 5.

I remember creating a picture of a dinosaur out of scrunched up paper in kindergarden, I remember seeing the teachers crying on the last day.

I remember moving house when I was about 5 or so.

I remember getting really sick and having to have my tonsils out.

I remember riding my little pink tricycle around the courtyard.

I remember going to the fruit and vegetable shop a lot and eventually getting bitten by the dog there.

I remember buying a plush toy dog I'd had my eye on for ages and naming it Benji.

Oh man, I remember thinking, at 5, what I'd be like at 17. I remember thinking of myself in some posh college uniform, then still sitting down to watch Sesame Street. How times have changed!

so you don't have to wear a uniform to your school then?

I remember riding a tricycle in our apartment. I'd've been younger than 2 then. And I remember being outside on the street we lived on.

I remember having the measles when I was 3. (I remember the whole neighborhood we lived in then, too.)

I remember moving to a new house, going with my parents to buy some second-hand furniture, and my grandma teaching me to tie my shoes when I was 4.

Actually, I remember a ton of stuff. But those things stick out.

Nope.

I went to a state school for four years where you did have to wear one (still wasn't as posh as some are) but the school I'm at now is free dress

purplesweat said:

but you still catch Bert and Ernie before school each day

ZombieKitten said:

hahaha nooooo, stopped that YEARS ago. I just thought you were talking about uniform

The first thing I remember is being at my grandmothers house in Mexico City. She was holding me and I remember that I didn't want to go to sleep. My dad said that I must've been about 2 years old. She would do that when my mom and dad had to leave and they didn't want me to cry.
