I can run to the store with a list, and not always get everything I have (forgetting a thing or two)! My daughter on the other hand whom is 4, her memory is QUICK. Taught her our phone number (incase she is lost or something happens), now when anyone asks for our phone #, shes the FIRST to blurt it out :)<br /><br />Newest follower via GFC, hope you'll follow back!<br /><br />http://momoftwo2011.blogspot.comLifes Wonderful Momentshttp://momoftwo2011.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535525493775623042.post-1143668516448241292011-10-12T18:50:31.935-07:002011-10-12T18:50:31.935-07:00"Remember Bangladesh" I once heard that ..."Remember Bangladesh" I once heard that said over so much food on our dining table and I fussed about eating something else.

I like rhyming and visualization.

Of course we had to learn a lot of those rhymes or sayings, but then in Dutch. We had to learn four languages at the secondary school, each of them having its own problems. Nowadays students can choose which foreign language they want to learn besides Dutch. Believe me I forgot more than I learnt if this were possible! Never mind, there is always Google.Reader Wilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06384603525251159272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535525493775623042.post-12491179133936115042011-10-12T00:04:32.405-07:002011-10-12T00:04:32.405-07:00Great post.

I could never remember his office number, but it was easy enough to find if I got off on the right floor, so he gave me a mnemonic: he was studying starfish, starfish have five arms, he worked on the fifth floor. And it worked like a charm, so well in fact that I can still remember it more than 20 years later!<br /><br />My ABC Wednesday is <a href="http://drinkthenewwine.blogspot.com/2011/07/another-mouse.html" rel="nofollow">Another Mouse</a>.Roy Schulzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03574135323022831091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535525493775623042.post-3134407707777332722011-10-11T12:16:06.351-07:002011-10-11T12:16:06.351-07:00Very interesting!!!

But don't ask me to sing it now, I can only remember half of it. <br /><br />It amazing how the mind works, I remember a few years ago, my friend and I were talking about something, and we couldn't remember it's name. A few days later with her and some other friends, I suddenly remembered the name, and said it and she immediately knew what I was talking about, and we continued on to where we had left off a few days before. The others wondered what we were talking about.
