Memory collection box 1.
So this is going to sound corny, but half of what makes my life so amazing is the ridiculous memories I think of and associated with certain things. So I had this empty notebook and have decided to write down as many memories as possible as they come to mind, starting with these.
Memory: (This goes on for several years) Westport. I have a space behind my bed because my walls are slanted, and decide to make a secret "club meeting spot" behind it. The club consists of myself and sandie, and every other day I kick her out of the club for doing something stupid and annoying, and then have to let her back in.
Memory: 14 years old. Kent. (Around March) I'm with Hannah, Alisa and Naomi at Alisa's house. They all manage to get me really high and everything is a million times funnier than it normally is. We've crossed a bridge to get to the field we lay in, and after toking up we find out that one of the Kent School's sports teams uses the edge of the field for one of their runs (oops!). We book it and realize we're a whiles away from the bridge we used to originally cross the stream, so we look for another place to cross. Being a complete idiot, i somehow determine that i can easily just JUMP across. I'm wrong and end up to my knees in cold mud. I lose my shoes, and have to stand their awkwardly for them to cross the river before getting me out. We then go inside and make some hot tea and quesadillas. Later I just crack up at myself when everyones asleep.
Memory: 6 years old. Newtown. I'm at St. Margarets and my 1st garde teacher, mrs. liff, is getting mad at me because I don't understand what the hell "factor families" are or why we bother learning them. She makes me cry. But then she lets me draw the ocean and I'm happy again.
Memory: In westport, 12 years old? My dad, sister, little bother and I go to baskin robins and everytime, my little brother INSISTS on getting an ice cream cone, not a cup, even though we know he'll drop it before we get to the car. After the 9000th time, he manges not to drop it before getting to, or when he gets inside the car, but the drops is as he steps out.
Memory: At hotchkiss, 15 years old. My sister, Isaac, Asher and I sit in the music wing and play poker with letters (I cant remember the actual name of the game). The stakes get high, and a lot of chips are up for grabs. Sandie ups asher, but Isaac wins by spelling the word "Boob" where all the cards are of the same suit.
Memory: In Falls Village at home, 15 years old. I'm absolutely smashed by myself in my room late at night over winter break. I decide its time for a late night snack and opt for some cheese and crackers and an enormous mug of orange juice. Upon arriving back, i tell one of my guy friends to call, but within 5 seconds forget that i've asked him to do so, and the ringing of the phone causes me to jump in my bed and dump the entire mug of orange juice all over.
Memory: 7 years old? Newtown. I have a dream where Grandma V is able to control an evil T-rex with a crystal ball. I run downstaris to get help from my dad, who's chest is made out of fried chicken. My dad begins eating himself. I keep telling him to stop and he won't.
Memory: 4 years old. Newtown. Mom and Dad leave me at a daycare and I think i've been left their for life, so i cry and cry and cry and cry. The lady tries to get me to paint and do anything but I refuse to do anything until my parents come back. I thought they'd left me in prison.
