My childhood memories


When i was a child i had a lot of good memories but if i had to pick about 2, i would probably chose the story of my first time to a theme park. The second memory was going to my Grandmas house. Those 2 different memories both shaped me to who i am today it may not seem to obvious how it happened but it definitely happened. 

The first time i went to a theme park was when i was around the age of 8. When i was that age i was still living in the old state and old house that i used to live in which was Washington  The theme park that i went to was called wild waves, it was a theme park but also a water park kind of what adverturland is but not as lame. The first time i went there i was so scared to go on any rides the only ride i went on that was remotely dangerous was the one  pirate ship that just goes back and forth. You still get the butterflies feeling in your stomach though and i though that was a cool feeling. I did a lot more water type activities. There was a wave pool that went pretty high up and i reached the far end. If you could do that then you were a total boss (at least in my eyes i was). I spent barely any time in the kiddie pool because my parents enrolled me in swimming classes and i was fairly decent at swimming so i didn't need any of that. I feel like going to that amusement park built me up to be who i am by learning how to have fun.

The second great memory i had was going to my grandmothers house when i was a child. This was also a very important to how i became what i am today. I was around the age of 10 still living in Washington  when my mom and dad had work around the summer and my uncle and aunt were busy then i would go to my grandmothers house and spend the day there. When i was there i learned a lot of things. Like how to have good table manners being polite and other such things. My grandma taught me everything she lived right next to a strip mall with like all the stores a kid would want to go to. So when she would let me i got to walk to Walgreens or blockbuster or this pizzeria and play in the arcade there. She would give me money only if i was being a good boy. I really loved going to her house, as the years went on i started not only going there for fun but to help her out. Ever since my grandfather passed away my grandmother was to weak to mow the lawn so i made sure that here lawn was mowed. That is where i learned how to mow the lawn. Overall my grandma taught me so much things in life i wouldn't be where i am without her. I learned proper manners how to be polite and how to mow the lawn.
