    1st Day of School
    I went to kindergarten for my first day of school. Colin and I were both very scared to be in such a socially crowded and new environment without our mom.

  • Q's

    What does your time line tell you about yourself?
    It tells me the important events that shaped who I am and who I want to be. How different would you be if you could have changed one or two events along your line?
    I don't think I would be too different but I suppose it depends how catastrophic the changes were. How flexible or fixed does your future seem do be?
    My future is pretty flexible. I have an idea of what I wish for it but no expectations.
