i'm screwed (strong language)
I didn't want to put it in a title, but yeah, I'm totally FUCKED.
About a month ago, I wiped out on my snowboard on a nice hard patch of ice and suffered a mild concussion. A couple of weeks after that, I had a physics exam. On the day of the exam, I got up, went to a couple of classes, came back, worked on my mods for a bit, programmed a bit, worked on a logo for a bit, and then went to sleep. It never once occurred to me that I had a fucking EXAM IN PHYSICS that day, even though I had been studying for it since 3 days prior. As a result, I have failed physics and am signed up to retake it next semester. FUCK!
Yesterday I had an exam in Creative Tech (a bullshit humanities requirement, but by far the easiest class on campus). On the day of the exam, I woke up, programmed a bit, signed a lease for my apartment next semester, ran some errands, repeatedly walked back and forth in front of the room where I take the class, on which reminders for the exam were posted, and then I spent the afternoon having some fun with some fanfic. It never once occurred to me that I was about to lose 15% of the fucking credit in the easiest class ever. This morning my friend informed me that the exam only took him 15 minutes to finish. JESUS FUCKING CHRIST ON A PONY, WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH ME?!
I swear, there must be something wrong with my brain, because how else do you explain the fact that throughout both exams I had no fucking clue what was going on, even though the day before I was thinking about nothing else? Anyway, I'm gonna play the "I've got an untreated concussion on top of a certifiably idiotic and memory disabled personality" card and hope that bails me out.
But I already know it won't work, and I'm going to get a C in a class where I really ought to be getting an EASY A, and my gpa is going to drop further, and my parents will cut me off, and I will be a certifiable college drop out. And I'm already under contract to pay $7000 to live near campus next year. Fuck me.

I doubt that a mild concussion is going to fuck you up that much. You seem to be able to remember other things, but maybe you should take extreme measures to set up reminders for yourself.
Re: i'm screwed (strong language)
Maybe your mind is wanting to forget things, or your just convincing yourself that you have a problem, thus creating the problem at hand...

That's not funny.
At all.
I've kind of been that way all my life, you just have to learn to live with it. As Random said, take extreme measures to set up reminders for yourself.

Selective memory, something like selective hearing but more advanced.
Re: i'm screwed (strong language)
oh yeah, no, i'm a forgetful dolt. i'm just gonna try and pull that concussion stuff to see if i can get my professors to let me off easy. and on top of my forgetfulness, i'm a procrastinator. i had planned on making/acquiring a simple little reminder program to run on my desktop, but i kept putting it off and eventually forgot about it. lol PUN.
