I Got Such A Bitchy Memory

Ok, if there's one thing that shows my brains it's my ability to remember almost anything. The only problem is it needs to be of importance or interesting to me. I mean in my math class I let everything subconsciously sink in. But then I forget stuff that I should remember. I'm making soup and forget to add in some of the key ingredients, making it so that it takes me 3 days rather than 2 days to make it. The first day I boil bones with all the ingredients. Overnight I put it in the fridge to gel so that I can scrape the fat off the top in the morning. Without gelling it or the more major ingredients it's horrible. And now so many people owe me money I can't keep track of it. I just know about 7 or 8 people owe me a dollar, one guy owes me 5, one owes me 4, and another owes me 2. I mean I'm no loanshark. I just let people borrow money and have my own money making schemes. Most of these involve buying things at the store and selling them at school. Then my memory doesn't apply well to those that I need it the most in like I don't know a French Test. I am going to fail my upcoming French because I'm horrible at learning languages. Or homework, that I always forget. But my soup got screwed, I forgot to put in about half of the ingredients that it needed, and for the ones I did put in because I left them in to soak too long the broth isn't white like it should be but a browner color.
