Do you still remember your 1st diary? How did it look? What did you write about? Nothing fancy, definitely no deep philosophy nor life long inspirational phrase (Well, still can’t write any of those after two decades ….) Just a simple laundry list of things I did - of course with my childish drawing
This is my first diary.
A yellow snoopy note book, Mom and I picked up at "San Shum" department store. I still like Snoopy a lot!!
I think I was in my first or second grade at that time - just barely learned how to write all those complicated Chinese Characters.
I even named my diary - "Growth Diary".
I couldn't remember if I meant to draw a rabbit or just a cat with long ears.
You must wonder why I called it "Growth Diary". I guess I was a kid with long term vision who knew people would ask 20 years later, so I wrote it down.
"Growth Diary" represents a person who writes journal during her growth period. Hmmmm... Simple and to the point. Maybe not too creative?
You must wonder what a 7 years old would write in the diary.
It's always fun to discover things from the past- a old friend, an album, a old piece or jewelry, or even a old diary. It brings back many memories that you cherish.
I am glad that I am writing my blog now - the childish handwriting & drawing are replaced by fancy computer font & digital pictures. However, I am sure 20 years later, joy of rediscover the past will be the same and it will be irreplaceable.
I consider this as my "BLOG Movement" during these long boring work days till my last day at work - To Those Lazy Blogger, Keep Writing!!!
