5 Memories/Feelings about Home Drawing:
1. The circular tile floor that surrounds the front door is where my dog, which died last summer, used to always lay.
2. My house was peculiar in a sense that the front door leads to the second floor, and there is one above and below it.
3. When I was younger I wanted to play the piano, so my stepdad's mom gave us her old piano which is still in the living room even though I gave up after only a few months.
4. The kitchen has a TV, but the living room doesn't because no one ever hung out in the living room.
5. The way the second floor is laid out is one huge square room not separated by anything except for the bathroom that is the smaller square room in the center. This made my house anything but private unless you decided to go into your own room.

One memory that I will always associate with my house is my dog, which passed away this past summer. My sister and I got our dog, Mac, when we were about 6 or 7 years old and we were so excited because it was the first pet we ever had. We got the dog within the first year or two of moving into our house (more like a condo) so much of my memories associated with living there revolves around my dog. Its favorite spot to lay or sleep at was this semi-circular floor that was tile that surrounded the front door, probably because it was a cooler area to lay on as opposed to the carpet. Whenever anyone opened the door, she would always be sleeping behind it. Now, when I come in the door, sometimes it's awkward not to see her lying there anymore.
