how much do you remember?

[keryx]

I was very pleased with myself for recognizing my new aikido instructor as someone I vaguely knew in 1988. Until I realized I'd mistaken him for his brother. And then forgot the names of half the people I hung out with in 1988.

It made me wonder how far back others' memories and friendships reach. So. How far back do yours go?

I think I counted the same person for high school, middle school, and elementary school. I have one friend who I've known since middle and elementary school. I have another friend who remembers me from middle school but I only remember her from high school. I usually say I have two friends from high school, in which I include both those people. Even though the second one, I only really became close to in college, since we went to the same college.

Is that confusing enough?
