1) Should I keep taking the pills or stop taking them until Sunday which is my new cycle day?
2) Is it safe to have unprotected sex with my boyfriend before I start the new box on Sunday?
3) How can I make myself remember to take my pills? I keep forgetting!

Wait and start a new pack at the end of your period. Throw the other ones away.
I would not suggest having unprotected sex at this point, while there is most likely a slim chance of getting pregnant your chances are far greater now than if you had taken your bc's as prescribed.
Take them at a convenient time such as when you get up in the morning and brush your teeth or after you get out of the shower in the evening. This is the most common problem with woman, they can't seem to remember that darn little pill.

go ahead and wait until sunday to start your new pack
you probably shouldn't have unprotected sex until you're taking your pills again
associate taking the pill with something you do everyday around the same time like brushing your teeth in the morning

Read the pamphlet that came with your pack!
Call the pharmacist or your doctor!
Google your pill online.
Most likely it will say to take two today and two tomorrow. As well as use protection (condoms) for at least a week.
Set your watch, set your cellphone calendar (that is what I use).

I'm wondering the same thing as your first two, so I'll keep an eye on this question.
I bought a cheap watch with an alarm on it, and wore it all the time. Set the alarm for pill time, and whoosh, i remembered... :D
