Earliest Memory Lab


I was about 3 years old.  I got all bundled up and went outside in the winter, the snow was up to my chest.  It was the Blizzard of '93.  I have no idea what my personality was like then, I was 3 years old.  Snowpocalypse was alright, but Blizzard of '93 was the best snowstorm of all time.

Both of our memories involve the cold weather, as well as happening to both take place in Chicago. My memory was more solidified by the fact that I had a physical object to attach the memory to, whereas you attached this memory to a large event. We also both do not remember many details outside things we could have felt and perceived easily.

Our memories are the same in that we both experienced a snowstorm at around the same age but at a different location and a different year. I remember a specific event during the snow storm, whereas you vaguely remember going outside in the snowstorm. My memory was more concrete probably because I experienced the pain of extremely cold hands for the first time and was reminded of this event whenever my hands got cold from being outside for long periods of time in the snow.
