I remember 1st grade when I first heard of the 100th Day of School. Someone who I still remember made a "100" with a hundred Legos. I don't think it was exactly 100 Legos, though. I think it was more. I brought more than 100 beads because I had a ziploc bag with different plastic beads. I stil have them.
Later in 1st grade, we used large pieces of paper so someone could trace us. Then, we used a measuring tape to find out how long, tall, we were. I stretched the end of the "tape" to the longer foot, so the number came innacurately to 52 inches, which is 4'4". Then, this guy got really mad because he knew he was minimally taller than me but I had a larger number since the teacher wrote all our heights (in inches) on the board.
I have too many stories of my childhood to write in one post.
Another time in 1st grade, we had "show-and-tell" and one day, I finally brought something. It was either my Winnie-the-Pooh book or my jade necklace. I don't know why I can't remember. Anyways, the whole class was like, "Kejing! What is it??" because I wouldn't say what I brought, so after what seemed like 10 minutes, this short little guy offered me a marker if I told them what it was. I got an orange marker from him. I think we still have that marker... If we do, I know for a fact that it still works. All these years, I've randomly seen it throughout the house and it has worked perfectly. It obviously wasn't a Crayola marker. Possibly Roseart, but maybe not.

I brought 100 cap erasers in 1st grade.
In my next email to you, I'm going to talk about random memories too.
