2/365--My First Love

"Will you marry me?" I asked. I was in kindergarten. My proposal was so serious..Of course he said yes. We were in love. We were five years old. Scratch that. I was in love. He was scared shitless of me. But oh well. I always ended up offending him in one way or another and having him run to his mother crying. Then his mother would call my mother..And my mother would have nothing to say but,"I'm sorry, She's my daughter." Meet Landon Brownfield. (:

1/365--The Teacher Who Abandoned Me

I decided to start with someone random, and completely not an obvious choice. She was the first person to ever really..leave. And she gave me my first impression of Fort Smith. A very bad first impression, I must say. She was my second grade teacher. She was the sweetest woman ever, until one day, when she announced we were the worst class ever, and she couldn't stand us anymore. The next day she was gone. I find out now she was having an affair with the janitor, but then I had no idea. I was little, and someone told me they didn't want me, and left. To anyone else, it would seem so trivial, but to me, it was hurt. I had disappointed someone. And instead of forgiving me, she left. As such a little kid, I took it personally, giving myself sole blame for her leaving. Looking back, I wish I would have just got over it, and forgot about it, but for some reason I couldn't. She hurt my feelings. From that time on I was scared to disappoint people. Anyone. For fear they would leave. And the award for lasting childhood scars goes to none other than Mrs. Brown. Congratulations. Hope you had a great time with the janitor. ;)

Let's get going..

I stumbled across www.x365.org a place where they encourage you to do project 365. Every day you tell about someone who has impacted your life, or even just someone who's name you remember. (: I'm going to try to stay away from listing family members, because like I say, I hate cliche. Of course my family has impacted me, it's a given. I'm going to try to be totally honest on this blog. A person a day. I wonder if I've even let 365 people get close enough to me to impact my life. I guess we'll find out. Shall we?
