When i was little going to disney world, i remember the street names, but i don't remember any of Disney World! not even the rides! or when you meet new people, you remember that they had a mole on the side of their face, but you can't remember their name. Why?

Everything has different degrees of importance to everyone, either subconscious or conscious. Maybe at that time you were just learning to read, and the fact that you could read them made you feel important. That's why it is so scary being a parent..you never know what part of their life will end up being the most poignant!

Because you tend to remember what stands out most.

I remember my sisters doing mean things to me, but I don't remember if I did any mean things to them. It's all selective.
