My memories are of my dad taking me to football on Saturday mornings, and my mum taking me swimming. Those are the things I remember from my childhood, not sitting around the table debating capitalism and the profit squeeze.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My favorite memories were with my dad, throwing a football around when he came home from work. As long as kids are having fun, that's the biggest deal at the end of the day.
My greatest memories as a kid were playing sports with my dad and watching sports with my dad.
My first memory in the world is my gym teacher ripping my mother's necklace off her neck and throwing it out the window and her running downstairs to go after it. I have no memory before that. I was 4. My father had a lot of girlfriends and my mother had a lot of boyfriends.
I have a lot of memories, but I don't go into capitalizing on that. Something's got to be my own. I'm not doing the record to sit here and broadcast my memories of my father.
I had the good fortune to spend hours with my parents around the dinner table having debates on politics and economics.
So often we rob tomorrow's memories by today's economies.
I have that memory of dancing on my father's feet to all the music my parents used to listen to.
When I was young, it wasn't about the money, it wasn't about the fame and fortune, it was about playing football.
I don't really have childhood-type memories. I had to grow up very young.
My childhood memories include a time when the government confiscated my family's possessions and exiled us to a camp in the B.C. Interior, just because my grandparents were from Japan.
