Post No. 33 : My first ...
I wanted to start the new year off with something not so interesting. I got this idea from the Toronto Star and it was all about "My first..." so here is my random list of My First
My first words : My first words as a child was 'dad'. I think that says something about me because as I grew up, I was definitely daddy's little girl. But as I got older, I became mommy's little girl. haha.
My first plane ride : When I was 6 months old, my family and I immigrated from Hong Kong to Canada.
My first bus ride : This is lame. My first bus ride was in grade 11 when Kelsie and I skipped last period to go get our passport photos taken at Wal-Mart. I was DAMN excited to be on the bus. I now bus around everywhere when I can't get a ride.
My first crush : Okay, so from my memory, I think my first crush was in grade 3. Or at least grade 4. I'm only saying first names because...well, you know. And I know for a fact anyone from my elementary school reading this will know exactly who I'm talking about. In grade three, my first crush was Patrick. Yeah, him. Grade 3, it was Colby. That's that! MOVING A LONG!
My first kiss : Haha...okay, this is lame. My first REAL kiss (I am not including a kiss I did not want during prom....*vomits*) was with my friend Lucas. I'm not even going to go into details. moving along.
My first boyfriend : His name was Tyler. It was a long distance relationship...we met online. Don't even start with me! I had a crazy life between 12-16. It was really effed up. We 'dated' for 3.5 years. He 'cheated' on me 3 times. I still get reminded of him because of Weebls and sometimes I see pictures of him on his sister's Facebook.
My first pet : We got these two parakeets as free gifts. We had a blue one and a green one. The blue one was mine and I named him cookie monster. We had them for a couple years and the day they died, I was so sad. Worst part, my dad picked him up from his cage and tossed him in the garbage....
My frist job : Well to be honest, my first job is the job I have now. I didn't get a job until I was 19 years old. I work at a Shell Gas Station. It's not a bad job and I don't mind it but I think I could be doing a lot better. But as the Chinese saying goes "ride a cow before you find a horse" .... it sounds a lot better in Cantonese.
My first bully : I was never really 'bullied' in school. It was never anything super serious. I got made fun of by this one girl in elementary school. I had a nickname and I didn't want her calling me by it so by grade 3, I changed my name to Allison. My first real bully would have to be grade 8 when this girl, Jenny, threatened to kill me. Til this day, when I see her, I'm a little scared.
My first heart-break : My first heart break would probably be when Tyler and I 'broke up'. After 3.5 years, it was sad to part. Our relationship started going down hill by the 2nd year. I wanted things to work out but they didn't. After we 'broke up', I wanted to stay friends but that worked out because we would always get into fights.
My first pay cheque : I blew that one like .... well, you know. It was gone in a very short time. I don't think I really saved much money from my pay cheques since I would always be going out and junk. I'm sure I saved something because I still manage to go out and buy stuff and pay off my credit card.
My first sports team : When I was in elementary school, I joined the junior girls basketball team. I was horrible. I did get a little bit better but not so much. My offense was awful but my defense well...it was alright.
My first concert : For a big concert that involved a band that people actually knew was Sum41. Kelsie, Amanda, Taira, and I all went that day. We were on the floor and we were getting pushed around hardcore. It was my first show and it was very fun.
My first trip without my parents : I went to Europe for 10 days with the school. We went to Paris, Normandie, and London. It was a beautiful 10 days and I wish to be there still. It was an extraordinary experience! I would never expect my parents to just let me up and go. It was fantastic.
My first trip by myself : This was more recent. I went to Oakville by myself (by train) to hang out with Marcus and take photos of him for an assignment. It was a lot of fun and I hope to make that trip more.
My first party : This is the first party that I hosted. It was after I came back from Hong Kong with my brother and my parents were going to be there for another 3 weeks. I held a "No Pants Mustache Party" What is that? Well, you don't wear pants and you have a mustache. It was pretty awesome.
My first drink : It was my friend's version of a chocolate martini (Bailey's, vodka, and milk) An hour later, he got me to drink rye on the rocks. It was a lot of rye. I definitely vomited pretty hard afterwards. Everything came up and I drunk dialed Kelsie telling her about it.
My first camera : This camera was pretty awesome. It was a Sony M2. (FRONT and BACK) It was a great camera. My mom got it for me while she was in Hong Kong. It lasted for at least 4 years and it was fantastic. I had AWESOME self portraits...haha.
My first DSLR : a Nikon D300. It was great. I loved it. Yeah, past tense. If you know, you know. I now own a Nikon D300s and love it also. In memory of my first one (Diego) I proudly call my D300s Diego the Second.
My first piercing : My snake bites. Yeah, I didn't even have my ears pierced. 18 years old and I got my friends to pitch in money for me to get my lip pierced. I don't regret it (much) but my mom didn't talk to me for 2 days when I got them. It's a lot harder for me to find a job at the moment because of them. But I think they are great and suit me well.
My first alone time at the mall : This was a little weird for me because I'm use to going to the mall with at least one other person. I went by myself this time and actually walked around, looked at stuff, bought stuff, ran some errands and such. It was really relaxing because I could do whatever I want. It was lame because I had no one to talk to or tell them about stuff (I resort to texting).
My first iPod : I rocked a iPod Mini 1st Gen. I got it for christmas when I was in grade 9 (thanks Philip, my godfather) and it was a 4gb PINK iPod Mini. It was the coolest thing ever. It lasted me for four years. After 2 battery changes, I retired it and got a iPod Touch 1st Gen. I now own a iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
My first cellphone : A Ericsson (Yes, just Ericsson) T28. I had limited use of this phone back then and wasn't under my name. Even my second phone, Nokia 6101, wasn't under my name. My cellphone now is under my name is a Sony Ericsson T715a. After less than a years use, I want a new phone because I've done some serious damage to it.
My first period : How intimate. Let's just say I was very young and didn't know what a period even was. I was very embarassed by it and didn't even tell my mom until I ran out of underwear....Let's just say I kept it a secret for a long time.
My first failing grade : This was just so funny. It was grade 11 university math. The teacher was so.... bland/monotone and really hard on everyone. If you didn't understand it, there was really no other way he could explain it and he doesn't understand why you don't get it. I failed that class with 40% and took the university/college math in summer school.
My first friend : Okay, this is from the lame memory. I know for a fact that I didn't really start making friends til I was in kindergarten. Kelsie and Jessie were the ones I played with the most when I was younger. We remained friends til grade 1. Kelsie and Jessie continue to have class with one another but I did not. It wasn't until grade 6 when I for sure became a 'popular kid' and Jessie was in my class so she came along. In grade 8, Kelsie and I rekindled our relationship and are best friends now.
My first online chat : Other than having msn, I went further from that; MSN Chatrooms. Those were the bomb! People use to create chatrooms where they were "pool parties" and stuff like that and you'd talk to some weird people and say some weird things... Best time ever!
My first important online friend : I'm pretty sure he wanted me to write something lame like this (I'm half kidding. I actually like this one). Mike, you're important to me. Last person I met online. You know why? Because after meeting you, I didn't want to meet other people because you're awesome, amazing, fabulous, fantastic, superb, and more nice adjectives inserted. Oh, and because you're hot. Not going to lie. I have so many good memories with you and I wouldn't give them up ever....EVER! Now stop reading this. Stupid.
Okay! That's it for MY FIRST. If you have anything else you want to know, leave a comment. If you want to see more of a daily life of me, check out my Tumblr. Photography is at deviantART. And stalk me on Facebook.
Thanks.
