But she also said that we are not like filing cabinets, so we cant just retrieve something if some asks us about a day, but we have to use linking to associate it with what we did on a particular day.What she means is that if someone asked about a a particular day, we wouldn't be able to remember, but if they said do you remember when we went to the mall and bought said item. We would be able to remember it, because it was linked from one thing to another. But also if we hold no interested in certain things we just lose it in our memoryHosted on Ausha.
