I was just wondering what some of the most memorable childhood memories people have. Specifically the circumstances under which they learned something, such as riding a bike. One of the most memorable ones that I have, is when I learned to tie my own shoe laces. Even though it seems like something really simple and negligible, to me it seemed like a huge accomplishment at that time.
Anyways, that day I was with a mom at a shop and she was paying for something, which is exactly when I happened to notice that my shoe laces were untied. So, because she was busy and was unable to help me and tie my shoe laces, I knelt down and tried to do it myself. Which took me about a minute to figure out, but before I knew it, I got it right. Which in the end turned out to be completely worth it, because the pride that I felt from that one accomplishment was unimaginable. And now that I think about it, that might have been the origin of me liking to accomplish things by myself rather than asking for help. Because just like in the past, I still feel better once I figure something out by myself, rather than when someone helps me with it. But this can also be a disadvantage I guess, because of not asking for help when needing it.
Anyways, one other things that I remember learning is riding my bike (just like most people do). Which is why I guess it's not really worth mentioning: because my experience with it is not going to be very different from anyone else's.
