Hammie, Your memory is great by my standards! I have people from my high school years who have requested facebook friends and I have no idea who they are-no memory at all, but they must remember me, for whatever reason I'm afraid to ask! I have accepted all of these requests (3, maybe) because I don't want to upset my old friends!
It's funny how our brains process things. I have a great memory for numbers and passwords. My work colleagues keep warning me to write the many logins/passwords down, but for some reason, these all stick in my mind. Meanwhile I have no memories of those great high school friends...
You will do great in any classes that you take, Hamster, you have a keen sense of details, a great quality to have in studies.
