My First ever Bike - Hero Cycle / Red color
My first ever cricket bat - "SG" (Not original, but because it was written SG on it and had Sunil Gavaskar's picture plastered on it)
My First Neighborhood Friend - Pintoo Bhagwat. (I never knew his real name. He was always called Pintoo, Pintoos, Pintya, Pintal, Pinti.. anything but his real name)
First girl I spoke to in school - I think her name was Janaki. But I don't remember. I must be in 3rd grade.

My first school friend - Aditya
My first school Rickshaw wala - 'Parkaas' (Actually he must be Prakash, but that's what he called himself)
My first pencil box - Waterman (It was called Compass Box for some reason). I graduated to the upscale "Camelin" much later

Nice! I remember the "SG" bat; my cousin passed off his worn out one to me...:)

Nice list this. Some of my firsts match yours - pencil box, cycle and tv.
Frist girl you spoke to was Janki?
