Describe a time when a smell in the air triggered an old memory. What was the smell? What was the memory?

Do You Remember When?

The other night your assignment was to think of a memory. You were then asked to discuss this time with a person that shared it with you. Describe what happened during that memory. Tell what the other person wound up remembering. Were your memories identical or different?

Losing Your Mind

The Occipital Lobe helps you see
The Temporal Lobe helps you hear
