Hi i have never really done this before so this is what "i remember" through my life it's not much but here it is!  

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I remember doing gymnastics with leotards that never really stay in place.

I remember in kindergarten how we had  these fun get togethers, for example how we had swim days. 

I remember my first year in elementary school receiving behavior cards, colors such as green, yellow, and red.

I remember not learning etiquette from my brother because he eats like a child.

I remember being forced into joining the science fair and winning second place, with me only doing the presentation and my dad doing the whole project.

I remember attending summer camps at Underwater World.

I remember being in the pep squad and performing at the assemblies.

I remember our little fiestas or parties that we had at the end of the school year.  During these parties my classmates would go to different homerooms to steal food.

I remember slipping down the bleachers, because there was a school jacket in the way.

I remember when our P.E. teacher gave us “the talk” which was the most awkward moments in my life.

I remember playing basketball and volleyball sixth to eighth grade and winning every year.

I remember going to the Philippines with my team and play against college students who where 5’11 and taller.

I remember in my seventh grade summer I obtained twenty one stitches on my head, because the doctors thought it would be some type of cancer.   From the operation a couple days later I fainted in the shower.

I remember having a soccer obsession phase in my life, which got me into playing nationals soccer.

I remember having pot lucks on the beach but was also one of our last ones because one of our coaches dumped a player into the cooler.

I remember going to Japan in the summer and doing their summer school.

I remember catching a cicada and showing it to my grandpa and my brother.   I watched them scream their heads off because they thought it was a cockroach.

I remember attending tutor in eighth grade and falling asleep on the desk mean while my sub teacher did my math homework.

I remember showing up for school the next day and having almost everything wrong.

I remember going to the Impact Basketball Camp and having top of the line training while watching pro basketball players.

I remember watching my mother at the nail salon having clean as a freshly done nail, but later ruined.

I remember attending awesome parties with friends.

I remember when I was younger I would go to the library but fell asleep right when I get there.

I remember staying up almost four in the morning just to finish my homework for school.

I remember our championship game that we won.

I remember tearing my ACL during basketball playoffs.

I remember my coach and I challenged each other at three point shoot-out.

After remembering these memories I wait for more to come.
