My 7 important events. -
Living in Arizona
Back during this time (around my birth~2001) I was living in Arizona, where my parents loved taking me to outings. We often went to several places, most of them rocky with long hikes. Apparently, I was an easily excitable child, and whenever we went to these places, I'd always climb on the rocks, learning at a young age how to hike up a mountain with parental supervision from a distance. It turned me into a girl who loves hiking and mountains. -
Moved from Private School to Public School
This is a great significance to me, as it marks my independence from my cousin, who I had done everything with. It also marks the time for me to become less sheltered as this was when I was beginning to mature. Compared to Pip's beginning, I feel this is what really jump-started my life. -
First Time In Trouble
Not too sure how long ago this was, actually. But I do remember that the first time I ever got in trouble (no idea for what, though), my dad was really pissed. It taught me that there are things in the world that I should fear and that if I followed the rules, nothing bad would happen to me. -
Crunchyroll
I joined a website forum named Crunchyroll.com. Basically it opened me more to the world (of computers and other people). it also bonded me with my friends more. -
Drifting
I can't really remember what the date was for this event, but it was quite a shock to me. I remember this was the time when my best friend at the time had become close friends with someone on Crunchyroll. As time passed, I realized that I could tell that I was moving away from my friends, becoming just barely noticably distant from them. -
Oxford
Getting into Oxford was a huge step for me. One, because it really put me out of the bubble I was so used to, and because, well, I didn't know anyone at first. But it was a good experience to get in because now I have a larger circle of friends and am having lots of fun here. -
Winter Retreat
This was a three-day weekend thing with my temple group. We went up to the mountains and basically was supposed to be a "bonding" trip. It was actually really fun, except for one night. During this time, we were talking about our new year goals, which somehow turned into a talk about some of our more personal problems. It let me see more into who the people around me are and helped me sneak a peek into what they're going through, or went though.
