Add in the mix bad memory and you are in big trouble. One thing that also troubles me is that normally I skip all the option descriptions and search for _examples_ because those are to ones from what I learn immediately. Now I must stop because all the bad memorize start to creep in...
I find it's similar to learning a foreign language. Practice daily and you don't even have to think about it.

And besides, you could always do this...
