VERIFIED: at 6 months and 2 weeks after my first teeth appeared, i bit my big toe. i was born on august 14, 1973 in manila, philippines.

i was on a straw mat on the floor with a wooden stool on it, perhaps to keep it from rolling up and folding. i was playing with my wooden alphabet blocks, chewing on the paint as much as i could. i noticed that whenever i lean on the stool, it slides away from me. if i hit the blocks, they fly away from me. but never with walls.

i knew/remembered how i came to recognize my fists, fingers, arms, forhead, face, head and torso; but what are those things that kept following me whenever i go?

so i did a bit of an experiment, i remeber the feeling of sucking my thumb, focusing my attention on the thumb that was being sucked(by me of course), it tickles sometimes; and focusing back to my mouth, feeling the whole thumb; and for the whole experience of feeling the 2 sensations from different parts of my body at the same time/location.

i know i can feel that for too on my other hand.

now going back on those things which stay with me, i tried feeling them and i watched out for the familiar feelings that i touch my other hand/arm. i bit my big toe and to my surprise, it was mine! i was so happy then! i tried to bite the other one just to verify that i also have two legs like my arms but my dad carried me.

after my dad died when i was 20 years old, i had to constantly talk with my mother to keep her out of getting depressed so after about a year, i told her how i remembered seeing thin, long, saggy boobs of our neighbor's grandmother who bathe outside near a well and a hand-pump. she could swing them back over her shoulders so she could clean underneath them. my mom was astonished that i could remember that since i was just two years old.

so i told her that i could even remember the last time she took a bath with me. she did that to save time. i remember pointing at her pubes and looking for her birdie like mine. she told me that i was just a year and a half. i am two years older thatn my sister.

then i went further back and told her that i tried waking her up because i pooped in my cloth diapers but i was too clumsy then and so she woke up hurriedly to clean up her straight long black hair before coming back to me to clean me up. she was very angry at me. she told me i was just 10 months when it happened.

then i told her the story above and that was the second time she heard it; first from my father that night after she comes home. my dad told her that their son might grow up to be a very stupid person because nobody would bite their own toe. he told her that i was crying like hell(but i remembered i was so happy about my discovery). she said that my dad showed her the bite marks on my toe. and they laugh about it and forget about that night. so it's verified. she told me that my baby teeth first appeared when i was 6 months based on my baby book that she kept.

the other memories i can recall was knowing about my lips first. but i can't verify them because i might be before my birth when they happened.

i'm right handed but in my earliest memories, everything's reversed. the house on my left as a recalled it was actually on my right when i visited the place again when i am older. doors, windows, beds. everything was reversed in reality.

so here's the order of how i first felt my body parts:
- lips, dominant thumb
- lips, tounge, dominant fist with thumb no fingers.
- the parts above now with fingers and my left fist and left thumb, no fingers yet.
- mouth, right forearm with complete hand, complete left hand with no forarm.
- mouth, face, complete right arm, left forearm and complete left hand, no left biceps/triceps/humerus.
- complete face but no ears yet, with forehead, no head/skull, complete arms and hands, no chest, no back.

when i was born, i felt bad(cold), it was dark(it was actually bright in the clinic), noisy, i felt like i was going to sleep. breathing was weird. my mom delivered me naturally without any anesthesia. my mom told me that i did not moved at all or cried for a while but my eyes were looking around. so the doctor hit my feet hard, holding me up side down to make me cry. i hated that feeling.
