I've been trying to figure out what my most distant memory is. Its hard to tell because I have bits of images in my head but I can't really differentiate between them. Whether its me walking to school or sitting on our front porch its really all the same at this point.
I usually have a good memory for everything except numbers but I wonder why I don't remember more from my childhood. The fact that I've been here in Canada for about 28 years and have never visited where I grew up may be a factor. That could jog some memories for me. I would have liked to see my old public school and the like. After this many years though it may not even exist any longer.
We came to Canada when I was almost 10 years old so I guess most of my 'childhood' was really spent here. The key adolescent and teenage years I do remember. I unlike many of my friends can vividly remember seeing snow for the first time. Being from a tropical climate, you don't see too much snow. I also remember the first time I saw TV, we didn't have televisions when I grew up. Now there was the start of a love affair that hasn't ended. Ten foot screen in the basement to prove it. LOL.
God, I'm so having a midlife crisis. Except my old college psychology professor said that scientifically there is really no such thing. Thank-you.
