I have lots.

Getting my first guitar for xmas.

Playing hockey on the ponds in the winter.

Getting the merry go round loaded up then running like crazy before jumping on and hanging on for dear life.

Putting a huge thumb tack on a nasty teacher's seat and then hearing her howl like a Banshee as she jumped up like a rabbid frog out of hell.

What are your favorite memories from growing up? wave

Countless hours riding atv.

Bonfire night. We cut a massive pile of trees to burn a few feet away from the edge of the forest. Someone always snuck in a few aerosol cans that would randomly shoot off.

Selling cigarettes in high school. A lot of kids went hungry dinnertime because of me.

Chasing the horses around and almost getting trampled to death.

Youcannow: I applied for that job but you were better suited, for some reason
I then got a job as a farmer but that didn’t work because every time I counted the sheep , I felt drowsy yawn

I never got the counting sheep thing to fall asleep.
If I can’t sleep I imagine a green field of tall grass blowing in a summer breeze.

For me, it was learning about alternating current...

That all depends. Shortly after, I found that Hair Mousse is static resistant!

My parents were divorced and I lived with my mother. For about a month I got to live with my dad when I was about 8 years old. I never felt so safe as when I was in bed nestled in my fathers arms. I felt no harm could ever come to me with Daddy right next to me.

Immersing myself into the pages of a book.

Listening to my Grandmother's words of wisdom.

Laying on lush green grass and staring up at the clouds.

Learning to ride a bike... the subsequent falls and bruises... and finally finding the freedom of being about to escape to unknown places on the bike.

Playing cat and mouse with the cops. Bunch of us always partied on the weekend and most weekends the cops would end up showing up. We knew their cars as soon as they came down the hill heading for us, we would arm ourselves with rocks and bottles and when the cops would get close enough, we would let them have it and then bolt for the woods where they had no chance of catching us. Sometimes this happened 3 or 4 times a night but they would never catch us laugh

I have lots too. But my warmest memories are associated with my grandmother. She opened up to me the world of cinema . I was 7 years old. she took me to the cinema once a week. and she also did my schoolwork , since I had to go play tennis after school and also go to a dance group. That’s what my parents wanted. When I came home (and I was living with my grandmother at the time, since my parents worked a lot and they had no time to take care of me), we did drink some tea with buns that grandma baked and chatted a lot. I didn’t even call her grandma, but always by her first name. we were best friends

One day, me and my cousin was riding around on the atv when we decided to have a game of left or right. My cousin blindfolded me and told me to go left or right. He wasnt sure however which way was left or right and he told me to go left when he meant right.

The bike end up about 15 or so feet out in the trees and it wasnt until our older cousin came by did we get the bike out of it.

I remember a painful incident from childhood, one day I was wearing pant without underwear, when I pulled the zip of the pant, my little-nunnu got stuck in it. It was very painful, I tried to free my nunnu from the zip all day and finally succeeded, this taught me a lesson to wear underwear before wearing pants. This was my first self experienced lesson which I have never forgotten in my entire life.
