What is your earliest recollection of life? How old were you? What were you doing? Was it a happy time or a sad time?

I was 3. I lived in East Van at the time, and we were at my aunts house, ( wich is down the street now) and i was asking for more Jell-o, and got it, and her son didnt like that, so he chased me around a coffee table, and then i slipped on a bat, and split my nose open on the corner of the table. My mom screamed, picked me up and started running me to the hspital, which would have taken 10 hours. Some lady offered a ride.
When i was getting the stitches out it took 3 nurses, the doctor and my dad to hold me down because i was running on adrenaline, and apparently fearing for my life, so i was stronger than 5 adults. The nose splitting resulted in 16 stitches and a permanent semi-closing of my nostils which leads me to sniff alot because my nostrils are small on the inside. So people think i snort coke, or just dont blow my nose.
I would say this isnt the happyest of memories.

The earliest is either being in pre-school and painting this butterfly picture that my grandma still has to this day..or one time someone in my family left a cigarette lying on a porch (not put out). Curious me decided to touch it. Resulted in a small burn and much crying ensued
Hmm, me being back in Ontario, I think. Falling out of my closet after crawling in and spraining my knee, scarring my left eye permanently in a freak pool accident.. I don't remember exactly, but yeah. Ontario memories.
I was 8 or 9 months old. Yes. Months. I was sitting with my parents (well, my mother was holding me in her arms, I wasn't really sitting) near a fountain in Holland. And I was drinking some apple juice.
I'm not making this up. I asked my parents if I was imagining this, and they were very surprised that I could remember it.

I was 4 and in kindergarden, I was making paper airplanes, and since my planes were best, some of the other kids were jealous. When my mom picked me up, I turned around, and saw them looking at me, so I gave them the finger (you know which one I'm talking about). Later my mom took me to get some "horchata" (hispanic rice drink, if you get the chance, get some, very refreshing), and just talked the day away.
And thats THE earliest that I can remember. Its also one of my fondest memories, lol.
Christmas just after I turned 1 year old. I got a play grill set and my sister wouldn't stop playing with it. I remember being frustrated because I couldn't verbally express my displeasure.

My earliest memory is from when I was a little over 1 year old, maybe almost 2. I was sitting on my mom's lap and my real father was sitting across from me. We were in the back room of a club (I assume the one that my dad played at). My parents were talking and I was just sitting there. Usually when I remember that moment, the next flashback is of my mom running with me and my sister out to the car. My parents divorced shortly after that.

I remember running around the house with my twin sister when we were three. The only thing is that she was running the opposite direction, and was telling me to stop. Of course I didn't listen and I eventually kept running and then I smacked right into her...but..I didn't crash into her the way you'd expect me to. I ran my tooth on to her head.. Of course, my froot tooth was sort of dangling there and her head was hurting, so we had to go to the dentist..and I didn't get my new front teeth back in till I was 6 or 7. I don't know if it hurt, but I think I thought it was pretty funny when it happened.

When I was about 4, I remember going into a forest or something with some friends and playing soccer. We used two trees about 7 feet apart as the goal posts and I played goalie. I used to be pretty good at soccer before I moved.
My earliest recollection of life would either be at my old house. I can't remember where it was. I was working in the yard with my dad and I got barbed wire to the face. I still have the scar above my eye :)

It would be playing Sonic for the first time on the Genesis. I loved the speed.
Also playing my mini piano when I was 6.
My old house down by Grand Forks was situated at the top of a long, steep driveway. I was about 3-4 at the time. Anyway, I had a toy motorbike with fat wheels so I wouldn't tip over and stuff. And, I started going down the driveway and I couldn't stop so I made it all the way down somehow and went right across the street(fairly busy street). And then, when I looked around I saw my neighbor's cat and it freaked me out because it was a very vicious cat. My parents always told me to stay away from that cat because it was crazy and stuff. So, I remember being horrified.

Probably when I was around three, when my sister was born. I can't remember life before my sister existed, sadly.
