Whats your earliest memory?

[neko 4]

When I was two, my sister was born. I remember being at the hospital.

The real question is; how reliable are those 'memories'? People will say they remember things from when they were young, but most of the time it's because they saw a picture of the situation or because a parent told them about it. Our minds are so easy to trick, even to the point that people will have 'memories' about things that didn't even happen (and no, these people don't have to be mentally ill).

I remember falling down the stairs when I was +-3 years old. I remember putting my water turtle in a toy train kind of thing (but then again, I saw a picture of it).
When I was 3-4 I remember burying my guinea pig in our garden, my mum was digging a hole. I only know I was at least not older than four because that's when my parents decided to separate. :')

When I was three years old I also decided to fuck my face up. I remember this thing so cleary. I had a little scab on my forehead. I looked at my own reflection in the window of my class and I started peeling it of.
Now, 17 years later, I still have a (tiny) scar on my forehead. -_- (But later on I thought it was cool because it looked like the scar Harry Potter has...)

You wouldn't believe me if I told you.

And who are you to say so?

*confusion*

You remember being born? Or what do you remember, exactly?

I once thought I had a memory from when I was a baby (few months/weeks old). That my mother took me into an attraction (it was some sort of 'boat' in a dark 'cave'). I 'remember' that I was terrified... Later on (when I was +- 7 years old) I told my mother that I didn't like it, that I was scared and that that was the reason why is was crying back then. :') Though I highly doubt that this is an actual memory.

I have some strange visual tablaus of bright light, the sensations being peaceful, but gradually less into panic as the chord kept wrapping around. Lots of heavy pressure, of the doctor trying to turn me, the wood paneling on the walls of the room with the green scrubs, masks, and hair covers of the doctors and nurses. My family passing me around like a potato and saying things to me. My mother's heartbeat. Flashes mostly.

And I told you you wouldn't believe me. That's fine, were it not me, I might be skeptical myself.
