Methods of memory recall are continually being researched everyday by scientists in hopes of finding new ways to aid the one thing most people struggle with - remembering things. Like most people, I tend to have struggle with remembering. I am usually more forgetful when it comes to remembering spatial memories, such as where I left my keys, where I placed my cellphone, or even finding where I parked my car in the garage lot. However, the things that slip away and escape from my mind and memory the most are names. Full fledged human names. Thus, in order to help myself with this, I tend to remember the people that I meet through mnemonic devices. Aside from simply associating the name to the face and body it belongs to, I find mnemonics much easier and more memorable - thus every time I give someone a mnemonically derived nickname, I increase the chances of me remembering them. And since everyone from my real life is coded with pseudo-names in this blog, why not change from exilebysounds to Mnemonically?
