I started writing things down when I was 7 years old (2nd grade). I had a gigantic notebook that I would use for everything. I really liked to play games and I wrote down the silly little imaginative scenarios I would create. I still do have it and use it but for different things.
I am quite young to be completing this task, I don't even meet the requirements for it. Twenty years ago I didn't exist. If I happen to receive a giant red X I suppose I'll just do it over in 10 years or so.
These entries are from when I was in the third through fifth grade, they are the earliest journals I could find.
These enrties brought out memories I didn't even remember, and they were so clear, too.

true, although it is a lot funner to write as yourself because you see all the weird things that you were thinking about at a certain age, and all the things you thought you'd forgotten.

I think the 20 years thing is a bit to strong.

I think that the 20 yrs thing is important. You're not actually writing when you use old entries. And it is totally cool to go back and see what you've done and how you're thinking has changed, but unlike most people who've done this task I don't think that's what it's about.
Welllll.... you don't have to write as yourself: write as yourself or in the guise of a real past persona.
