    My Life, So Far

  • First Memory of the Old House

    I have my first memory of the house I lived in until I was in Kindergarten. I remember the living room, with a red and white striped couch facing a tv in a light colored wood entertainment unit. I can remember sitting on the couch while watching Batman cartoons.

  • My First Memory of Stockton, CA

    My mom's side of the family lives in northern California. My grandparent's live in Stockton, California. I know that we visited them constantly, and we still visit at least twice a year. I am not sure about the exact date, but my first memory of Stockoton is of a honeyscukle bush near my grandparent's house. The plant had bright white and yellow flowers that if picked properly, one could remove the nectar from it and taste the drop of it.
