Here's something different from me.
I have had the "Burn After Writing" book sitting on my bookshelf for a couple of years now, and haven't done anything with it. So here I am. Doing something in front of everyone.
My earliest memory:
Probably my parents fighting.
As a child, I dreamed of becoming:
Famous LOL
When I look into the past, the thing I miss most is:
Not being scared. Being able to stay outside all night with my friends doing whatever we wanted.
My childhood described in one word:
Lacking.
Posters I had on my wall growing up:
One Direction, Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber, really anything I could tear out of a magazine.
The single most profound act of kindness that I will never forget:
Is it bad that I can't think of one?
People in history I admire:
Mary Queen of Scots, Edgar Allen Poe, Martin Luther King Jr., among many others.
MY FIRSTS
A first is like an earthquake of the soul. Unforgettable, unsustainable, and radically destructive. But out of the wreckage of our clumsy and passionate firsts comes a fabulously interesting and resilient adult individual. Our tragedy is that we always hope that the first time will last forever.
First friend: Joey, my dads friends son.
First love: Robert, a boy from my childhood neighborhood whom I reconnected with in High School.
First record/CD bought: Avril Lavigne - Goodbye Lullaby (expanded edition)
First foreign holiday: I've never left the country.
First job: Publix
First car: Hyundai Santa Fe
First concert: Journey
First school: United Methodist
First kiss: Jacob, 7th grade
First teacher: Mrs. Josie Kindergarten
First alcoholic drink: Gin
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Probably this past weekend. I had my first work party.
These were the first 5 pages of "Burn After Writing." I hope you all enjoyed.
INVISIBLE GIRL.
