Cleaning my apartment today, i rummaged my way to the old boxes that remained untouched (until now) ever since i moved to this place. And these are some treasures i found:
Some old photos, birthday cards, postcards and letters.
Including love letters, too, hahah.
Few of these photos brought back a wave of good memories...
Mini me and our first pet dog Bobby. :)
Early Christmases spent with my grandmas. I missed how my grandma (on photo) and auntie decorate on holidays.
All about the first dance number ever (as i grew older, i lost this magic talent, hahah)
The first ever school award (my brother grinning wide beside).
The first ever poster artwork i did.
One of the first batch of watercolour landscapes i did during college.
And one of the first ever paintings (a self-portrait) i did while discovering my own style.
There are also few things in my luggage i didn't recognize. Like for instance, these antique photos whereas i can't remember how i got. Maybe they're my ancestors or a friend's ancestors. :)
And there are valuable items & memoirs i lost because of transferring from one place to another. I hope someday i can make my own permanent home.
How about you, what lovely memories were you reminded of ? Made any discoveries today? :)
I love this post!!! Old pictures always have this happy nostalgic feel to them, even if they're not your own. I love them!
