a sneak peak into my past
My mum found an old box of mine outside in the storage place! It’s been so crazy looking through my stuff from over 10 years ago, the memories, smiles and laughs they brought back was just like it was yesterday – cliché, but true! I can even remember wearing those clothes, and what was happening during those times, just being able to re-live those situations. I guess sometimes that can be good, others not. Was reading through a diary from ’93-96, high school years, I really can’t believe life was like that! Mostly about who was with who, who liked who, what happened on the weekend etc. And for a lot of the time I was really sad, depressed (or thought I was), it was a rather negative, lonely time – but we never want to remember the bad things, only the good, but so much of it makes us who we are today. hmm
Anyways, here’s a few excerpts from my past -
1992 – Poetry
The Man Inventor (that's not even a typo)
A mad inventor lived above me,
He asked me to come to his house for tea,
The cookies tasted bad,
The inventor went mad
I walked out the door,
When he crashed through the floor.
I ran down the stairs,
To find that he was dead.
Now there’s no inventor up the stairs.
School Reports – ha have I changed much??
Summer, 1990
Kristy needs to become more confident in her own ability.
She’s looked upon as a mediator and unbiased in the disagreements which occasionally occur in her friendship groups.
1990-91
She is quite shy and reserved…
She works well as a member of a group as she prefers to communicate within a smaller unit.
She has excellent powers of concentration and is able to read silently for a prolonged period.
She works with great delicacy and care…
She is a quiet, sensible and extremely hardworking girl. She always sets herself the highest standards in all she does.
July 1, 1992
She likes to speak in small groups or in a one to one situation.
She enjoys the challenge of making something out of junk…
She is well balanced and sensible and can always be trusted.
