    Not my first memory.

    When I was eight years old, I was wondering how long I could remember something. So I started an experiment. I decided to remember what I did that day for as long as possible. Every evening when I was in bed I would try to remember it. That was 30 years ago and I still remember that that day I went playing with a friend and we tried to make a swimming pool in his parents backyard and we played with some wild cats.

    I hope I can keep the experiment going until I’m at least 90+

    Waking up this morning, or maybe something important from yesterday if I concentrate… 🤔 how did I get here?

    I woke up one day and suddenly realized I “was” and couldn’t remember anything previous to then.

    Maybe like 4 to 6, asked my older brother if he had the same thing happen to him growing up and he said “yeah, I guess” and then left, like he always did. So I figured the amnesia mixed with consciousness was normal and have been remembering the suffering since, lmao.

    My mum enters the room first. Then my dad. My dad leaves first. Then my mum. When I was around 4-5 years old, i decided I’ll remember this forever. I think I will. I really hope i got the order right.

    I dont know what this says about me, but I only have bad memories from my childhood. Not that I had a bad childhood (I think), but somehow those are the one that stuck on my head.

    Examples:

    • Being grounded by my parents
    • Falling off a 2 floor
    • Being grounded in kindergarten
    • Eating too many sour candies and needed to go the hospital

    Anyway, happy Thursday
