Throughout Life from Where I Sit

1994, the start of my life and the very beginning of my childhood years to come. All the meaningful memories, the memories we share, the random memories and of course, the memories that wait for us it the future. Childhood is a memory, that cat can seem distant to an adult, or even to a teenager that believes they are no longer a child.
From where I am sitting, at the back of the sports hall, I see desk after daunting desk spread out in front of me, it is like being in 芒聙聵Toys R Us芒聙聶 for the first time, where everything looks so big as you stare up at shelf after colourful shelf that hold all the toys you could possibly imagine芒聙娄 but instead, going back to the sports hall, I now visualize all the many previous P.E. lessons, 芒聙聹those days seem as if they were only yesterday芒聙聺, my mother would say, whilst my dad would simply say, 芒聙聹well you have grown taller since then, but I still see you as my little girl芒聙娄芒聙聺, in that distinctive and protective way that all fathers芒聙聶 carry with them throughout life.
To pick one day from my childhood to describe for you now, is like taking the child version of me to the 芒聙聵Pick 芒聙聵n芒聙聶 Mix芒聙聶 area of that well known shop, and asking me to go in but only come out with one type of sweet.
Childhood is a stage of life, just as growing old is another stage.
Scientists tell us that one day is 24 hours, the time it takes for the earth to fully rotate; we learn that fact during childhood. Well one way to look at childhood, is to look at the whole stage as just one day. So as I continue to sit here, I imagine my childhood as just one day, not the many years that they in actual fact are.
The age at when childhood ends, and you turn into another chapter entitles Adulthood, varies. In some cases people believe that you are no longer a child as soon as you hit your 13th birthday and become a teenager, others think you remain a child at age 18 and 19 as you are still in your teen years, and therefore, still a child.
Still sitting here, in this room, at this dull desk, being examined, it is just another day of my childhood. This is the second time I find myself stationed here today. It is not the last time either. So this you may be wondering is the day I have decided to describe for you. It is not my first day of school, not a trip to the zoo, or my first time on a plane. The childhood day I have chosen is today, my thoughts and position during this day, as I have just taken this exam paper as Candidate Number 6857.
