I was cleaning out my closet, and I found a memory book I had to make in 1st grade. I actually have memories of making it, but I didn't have any recollection of what I wrote.
Oh god, I don't think I've laughed that hard in a long time. I was such an idiot. I was not as eloquent with words back then (not that I'm any better now - all I possess is a slightly more extensive vocabulary and even worse handwriting). Well, I guess that goes along with many other situations that happened in 1st grade... But then again, I didn't have any good memories of a lot of things back in 1st grade, which is probably why my memory book was so... absolutely hilariously abysmal.
Anyway, the days of your youth. Do you still have any old school work from kindergarten, 1st grade, etc that is worth sharing?
I don't want to remember anything that happened between...oh....say grades K thru now.
I'd rather forget everything I did in elementary school forever.
I think I have a paper around here somewhere from the 1st grade... I spelled "hurt" as "hert". Good times.
In middle school, I think it was 7th grade, one of my teachers told the class to write a letter to themselves for after we graduated High School. I got that somewhat recently and it was kinda funny. I said I was "in love" with a girl I had a mini crush on, I also said a few other things I don't remember, but I nostalgia'd a bit after I read it.
My memory of my past is pretty decent, I feel like I remember more than most people would, but IDK. Kindergarten was good, but the rest of elementary school basically sucked and I'd rather forget. I remember one of my best friends, Andy, and someone who I was good friends with, Ian, they both moved, and after they did my school life went from sucky to suckier.
Middle school life was decent, High school life just ended not even a year ago, college life sucked (well, the work part of the college part did anyway, besides that it rocked so much ass).
I also remember quite a bit of things of before school, playing with toys, trying to read, and some other things but no one cares.

That's not too bad. I spelled "wrong" as "ron".
And darn, so many of you guys don't want to remember your early years? Those were probably the best times of my life.
You're a female who isn't ugly or fat.
K and Nayr were probably nerdy little boys who had little to no friends, and/or were picked on a lot as a child for whatever reason and let those insults get the better of them, which is probably why they don't want to remember those times.
My mom recently found a Christmas list I wrote from back in 1998. I nostalgia'd hard. Really hard.

Nice ASCII flip off, man.
Also, I kinda miss those carefree days...even if my handwriting was atrocious. I look back and suprise myself with how smart I actually was...but I like knowing so much obscure poop nowadays.
I have this weird notebook project thing from 7th grade, where we had to...I dunno, send it off various places and have people add to it?
Anyways, I sent it to one of my uncles who worked at NASA, and he gave me a picture of him standing next to one of their satellite prototypes. :D
I didn't have a friend since I was... I wanna say 10, but it may have been 9 or 11. I didn't talk to anyone because I couldn't hear (I've some hearing problems). First game was Super Mario World, which I spammed BECAUSE I didn't play with anyone.
FUCK, I AM THE ORIGINAL EMO!

I think that anyone who is a mature and level headed thinker would want to forget that early youth phase, where our naivety had no bounds.

My childhood was pretty bad, but not how it was described there.
And no, most level headed thinkers would actually want to remember those times because they were naive and whatnot. Most level headed thinkers are envious to the kids, which is why when you enter high school, most people seem to go back to being kiddy.
Elementary: OMG I love to color.
Middle School: Coloring is for little kids.
High School: OMG COLORING I LOVE TO COLOR.
E: OMG I love Spongebob.
M: Spongebob is for babies.
H: OMG Spongebob is so intercourse ing awesome.
E: Trick or Treat! =D
M: Trick or treating is for little kids.
H: You're never too old to Trick or Treat!
And besides that, you are saying that a good amount of people who already posted are not mature or level headed.

This is based along the highschool genre, and a very small population of that are filled with level headed and mature people.
I don't think you are one of those people, so I don't expect you to understand this.

Yes, because we all know how mature and level headed you are, being watched, your avatar, and parts of your sig are all great signs of this.

Sounds like you're copying half the facebook groups out there. Almost every highschool wants to embrace their inner child, while they still have it, but no one wants to REMEMBER the stupid things they've done over 10 years ago.

JrDude, it's not that we don't want to remember childhood, but more along the lines said naivete and not knowing things let to a lot of uncomfortable experiences among other "bullying" etc. you mentioned. Yes, it was probably no where near as bad as it really was, but we tend to internalize things worse than they really were. So basically, you bringing it up just makes it worse for the person who experienced it.
Simply put, you're not helping things.

Actually they do reflect your level of thinking and your maturity. Your interests will often show your maturity, if you have Blue's Clues or Pedo bear in your sig, your maturity level is highly likely to be very low. Your level of thinking can also be shown with your interests, but I will stop my explaining since my explaining is never listened to, because due to the fact that I am JrDude, everything I say makes no sense and makes me a moron.

*loves how you just ignored my post altogether. Wonder why :O *
Anyway, that's not entirely true. So according to your logic, anyone who likes animation must have the maturity and mental capacity of a ten year old. But if you drink coffee and watch the news, you must be SUPER SMART BUSINESS PERSON WHO'S SUPER MATURE! Simply put, your argument is a strawman argument and fails completely.
tl;dr you're never too old to enjoy the work of dedicated drawers and animators.

No, they do not. The most logical thinker on the earth could like a childish show or game, it does not reduce there maturity to that of a child.
No, I would listen to you if you ever said something that was correct, or intelligent.
You just don't, you never do. Because you are an idiot.
That's why no one listens to you.
If someone else explained this, then it would be listened to, possibly because they'd use better wording, or possibly because they wouldn't have the username JrDude.

Just because you didn't use the word "always" doesn't change the fact that what you used was a shallow strawman argument. Since you basically called others immature because of what they liked, my analysis still stands. Just because someone likes something, liking that does not make them immature. Especially considering I could call you out on your pokemon avatar, a game aimed at children.
Then of course there is the issue of you being a complete dick because others do not have fond experiences of younger years. We don't all have perfect little lives where our parents spoil us rotten and expect everything to go their way. Guess what, some of us had problems socially and it led to very bad results. Having that kind of attitude doesn't make you any better than our perceived aggressors. You're acting the same as the brainless dolts who deem themselves mature because they think they have the high ground in interests. You think you're interests are "superior" so anything you don't like must be kiddy or childish. But then again, I'm sure you never had any problems in school. So here's an idea, not all of us had such great school experiences, and a lot of it isn't our fault. I'd like to see how you react in those situations, probably not as well as a lot of us have. So Jr, kindly shut the intercourse up until you have any idea where we're coming from.

It's humorous how wrong you are.
I know Pokémon is aimed at children, but why would I care if people think I'm immature? People will think I'm immature regardless of my avatar.
And my life is far from perfect, my elementary school life was just as poopty, or close to, maybe even worse than yours, but I wouldn't know, and neither would you. My parents died, and my gramma may have spoiled me in certain ways but it did nothing towards my social life, hell if it DID do anything it made my social life worse, it definitely didn't make me expect anything to go my way. I had a bully, and after my 2 best friends moved away everyone seemed to turn their back on me and bully me like the stereotype nerds on TV, and maybe I was that but I don't really care. I look back on my past, and remember the good times and ignore the bad. When my sister finished middle school and we moved to where I am now, my life was still pretty bad, my lack of social skills made me get bullied more. BAND made fun of me, BAND, those are the nerds of school, and they bullied ME. I can write a book on all of the poopty times I had in school, then have a few sequel books, then end up having more words in them than all the Harry Potter books. Not saying they'd be good books, but they'd be lengthy.
I don't think I'm mature, on the internet anyway, I am definitely not mature over the internet, but I am pretty mature in reality, believe me or not, but even if I think I'm somewhat mature, I know I'm also immature in real life too, it all depends on who I am around.
I have always thought my interests were far from superior, I used to never tell people what games I played because I thought everything I played was kiddy and childish, but I still liked the games. Now I tell people, "Oh I play kiddy games like Pokémon and Mario," then they laugh and not care, then they tell me how awesome some shooting game they play is.
Basically, I thought liking things like what I like made me immature, which has partially carried on to my thoughts now. And I know that people will assume that people are immature if they have childish interests, just because you don't and I do doesn't mean that some others, mature and immature, wouldn't agree with me.
When did I say your problems were your fault? I never said "you had a poopty past because you told the past to shat on you."
I will say again, my past was poopty like yours, maybe less/more, but I have indeed been there. If you knew me personally, you'd see I have taken those situations very well, I have learned a way to make bullies (usually) stop bullying, and I have mentioned it before but no one believes it works because I am JrDude and everything I say is stupid and idiotic. Anyway, the past is passed. It doesn't bother me that it happened because it was so long ago that it would be childish to whine about it now.
And though I feel I did a good job in this post, watch as I get flamed and watch as people ignore the thought out parts and emphasize the bad parts so they can insult me some more. Yeah, I have high expectations alright ;D
