I don't have the same memory quality these recent years.
I used to be good with numbers and details. During 2000, when ICQ was 'in', by only logging in few times I remembered my 8 digit number username and my friend's. I remember dates, birthday and small occasions. It was all the glory of the past.
Now, I don't even remember where I put my stuffs. The worst thing, those that I lost are the one I intended to keep it well. By the time I kept 'I chose this particular place to keep so that I won't lost it' and end up losing it. It happens so often that it becomes quite frustating to me.
And more than ever, I forgot occasions, something I never did. Some occasions can be totally swept out on my mind just like that, and I still had problem recalling them even when I was convinced that it indeed happen.
When I was in Primary three, perhaps 8 years old, I had my tonsils removed because of infection. It's a common thing and common operation, but I remember that the doctor told my parents that I might suffer forgetfulness or short term memory, temporarily.
It didn't happen, my mind was bright, up until now. He he.. I think it's too late to blame on those.
Anyway, for important good memories, I still had it clear in my mind, it's just little tiny weeny medium things, so far it didn't really bring too much negative impact in quality of my life. Although yes, sometimes I feel annoyed and think that, how if someday I forget something meaningful? I'd be sad, I don't want to forget anything I had been going through, it's part and pieces of my life, sad or happy.
So, all the while I, of course, don't get any positive impact from the questionable memories, until one day it was kind of bless in disguise. See, my favorite comic book, Doraemon, he he..they have published this new colored version lately. The stories are not as compelling as the usual series, but it's still entertaining. So everytime I happened to visit Indonesia I would buy if it's already in the market. I had 6 books so far, and yes, I had read them at least once.
But last week, when I read it again, I couldn't remember it. For all six books, I could only remember reading few stories. Ah?? But put all the questions aside, it's bless in disguise, it's as if I had new Doraemon comics, and enjoyed it as if it's the first time I read them.
Yah, regardless how small and significant, it kind of made my day. :)
