Journal # 1

1)Who would I tell my life story to? I would tell a stranger. If I told someone I know, I feel that I would leave out parts of it that I am ashamed about because I wouldn't want them to see me differently or change our relationship. A stranger would be easier to open up to because their opinion of you doesn't matter that much. Also if you know a person's secrets, it is impossible to dislike them because you know that they are human and even if they do bad things, they are motivated by the same feelings, so I might even make a new, very good friend.
2) My exact starting point would depend on the mood of the story. If I was going to focus on the good of my life, I would start at a different place than if I was focusing on the "tragedy". Overall, though, I think I would start most recent and work my way back. That just strikes me as a good way to lay out my life.
