I have a small notepad (a Rhodia Dotpad no 12) that I use for... well, everything.

When I was a little girl, I had a secret reading spot.We had an attic that you could only reach via a wooden ladder that was hidden behind a ceiling panel. In my eyes, that little rope on the ceiling was the gateway to my reader’s heart.The roof was slanted, and on the sides, my mom had made curtains to hide all...

I've found this just now, among other things I wrote years and years ago for a memoir class.
