Memory

I must be getting old. There are certain things I really can't remember. For example, I rented a DVD today. Passed a ten dollar note to the cashier, by right, he should return me a five dollar change but he did not. The terrible part is that it took me around ten mins to recall the whole incident. By the time I remember, I was on the shutter bus on my way home. This afternoon, my collaegue wanted me to return her a book which I have borrowed. The thing is I could not remember this incident. I remembered asking her to bring the book, but I could not recall anything else besides that. I don't remember ever touching the book. Sigh.

My hubby said that I have selective memory. I choose to remember certain things and for the rest, I just chunk them aside. Well, there is some truth in what he said. Working non-stop has made me very tired. As time passes by, there are a lot of things which I choose not to remember. Limited "space" in my brain. Do not wish to tire myself out.
