All the ETC:

Everyone always speaks of their first memory. This memory can be something half realized or foggy, but certain elements stand out. That is, after all, what makes a memory a memory. Some people claim to remember being a baby, while others insist that they remember certain toddler or adolescent moments first. Yet no matter how hard she thought, she could not recall one memory that was her ‘first.’ Sure, there were tons of memories, but they had no dates or times attached to them. She could not recall when something happened or even relate memories to moments against which things could be put chronologically. Because, for her, time had never been of any importance. She was so utterly apathetic about time and its passage that it wasn’t worth remembering or attaching to parts of her life. Later on, as an adult, this causes all of her memories to jumble into nonsense that becomes not worth remembering either.
