What exactly were you doing at age 9?

Answer 1

During the summer, we used to catch butterflies and dragonflies in the field, near my grandma's house. The sun setting in the background, my cousins and I would play tagging. When the clock ticked at six o'clock, we would scurry to our grandma and kissed her (sign of respect for elders in the Philippines). Before going to sleep, we would listen to her stories particularly about the Japanese-American war. I remember having dreams about the stories she related to us.

Last summer, I went home and visited my grandma. When I got back to the city, I received a call that she passed away. I miss her.

Answer 2

Playing softball with the neighborhood kids (I was a tomboy), but I also played with Barbies, we listened to 78 records in the carport and danced to them (the Beatles), we played Army (this was during the Vietnam War); we played hide and seek after dark. There were only four houses on our street, and the kids in each home, all of us combined, were equally spaced one year older and younger from each other. This bound us all indelibly to one another. On a stepping stone, there were children ages 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14. This kept all of us close, and we all played games together.

Answer 4

I was in fourth grade (I started first grade when I was five years old) and I lived part of the school year in Texas, then we moved to Denver, Colorado. I had never been so cold in all of my life. The school is Colorado was much harder than the one in Texas, so I was under stress. Mostly I remember playing outside at that age.
