Life Story #5 - 2011

Think of "firsts" in your life. I debated on narrowing down what type of firsts because it could be about so many things. First house, first love, first car, first marriage, first day of school.... And on and on, good firsts and bad ones. There are probably many different ones you'd like to write about. So I think we'll repeat this description in the future.

For this swap, I'll let you choose your own "first". As you write about it, try to be as specific and detailed as you can. Bring out that emotion and how it came about and what were the results.

I hope you enjoy this one. If you haven't done one of these before, please don't be shy!
