Now where did I set those car keys 3 minutes ago?
|
Ummm i dont drive but i've forgotten i had contacts in which is actualy very common as you put them in once a day take them out once and dont notice them inbetween. The actualy forgetting something in your short term memory is from you not paying atention, my room is a "mess" but i know where everything is i dont even have to search because i remember putting it there when i need to. But i often lose guitar picks as they stick to your arms and drop off with out you noticing so i've made a note to pick things up that drop off me

Do you seem to make more mistakes the first time or the hundredth?

It depends on if the pattern is familiar like two songs i play but the odd thing is when my brain and "subconcious" or muscle memory mix up the song. I play the start to same old story i end up playing american jesus because its the same frets for the start of the song.

I've had the same compelling feeling as well. I tend to think that the event triggered a false association. Have you ever "remembered" that someone was with you - say on a fishing trip 2 years ago when in fact they were not there at all. You usually end up saying something like "Oh, that was Jane that was with me." or "You're right, we went fishing at that other lake."

I can honestly say i've never had one of those experiances but lifes still young for me im only 16 and as far as fishing with me goes unless jane was the shrub i caught or the branch i cought out of the oak tree behind me i dont think it was a trip i've been on
But i do get what you mean my parents do it a lot which is really annoying as they dont believe me even though they know i have a better memory then them.
I also wonder if me been left handed has anything to do with it as i was taught right handed aswell (stupid teacher that i hates fault and is now a head mistress some how) which has given me a symmetrical brain function. From tests i've taken i have a 3% more masculin brain and even left and right lobe activity but im mostly left handed now except for guitar so im left handed for all my day from 7am till 12pm excusing aprox 2 hours for guitar. (these are those like 50 question online tests)
Add: not that guitar matters as i use my left hand on the fret board so it does more work anyway with slides and hammer ons etc over strumming.
