How far back can you remember?

Probably. There's like a growing supply of "links" that we continually grow on in our brains... they're being made every day.

When I first realized my existence I was still living back in Ontario, so I associate Ontario with my childhood now. I remember everything.. I was at least 2. I remember big events like getting my dog, and I remember small things like when I was just about to fall asleep, and I was listening to my playskool tapedeck. Falling out of the closet and breaking my leg.. trying to milk my dog like a cow (didn't work well :P,) and even every place I visited (Lawrence-Skuce Elementary, a high school, skating rink, my house, my friend's houses, everything.) It's pretty creepy. I just don't remember our first house in Ontario before our townhouse, where I met my best friend at the time.. when I came into conciousness, I had probably "known" her for a good few months.

I can remember a few select memories from as far back as age four, but I don't remember everything that happened from then to now. I find it hard to remember what day it is, or what I did all week, so this is really no surprise to me. My Aunt is able to remember everything that happened to her from about age 10 until now and she is nearly 30 years old.
