I remember trying a cigarette because of curiosity. I took a puff from a friend's and remember thinking that my throat smelled like death and decided never again. The girl smokes a pack a day so I guess her throat is a funeral parlor.
I remember my first iced coffee. It was Free Iced Coffee day and I decided to try it because it was free. I am now an addict, needing a cup a day. Is it me or does coffee leave a similar taste in the throat like cigarettes?
I remember my first day of work. I felt so confident but deep down I felt like
that I was unprepared. I could have used a coffee (Thank you job for fueling my coffee habit).
I remember my first day of college. The room looked like a suffocation chamber. It was in a basement, thus no windows and very little air. A psychology class being taught in a cold and sterile room.
I remember my 21st birthday. I shared a watered down Cosmo with all my friends. ...$9 dollars?!
I remember receiving this assignment. The Professor said to write this list based on Brainard's style. The book was yellow, so this list is trying to make a point about contrasts. I hope it works.

Thanks, Patricia. I like what you've done: contrasting a series of firsts, some auspicious, some not, but it's interesting to see how they all thread together. Why is it significant that the book was yellow, though?
