I have a photographic memory. That is, my memories are just photos. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t actually remember actual events, but I remember the photos surrounding them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Am I face blind?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s interesting: because if I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have the aid of thinking about the photos I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve taken of people, I have a hard time recalling their face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I do recognize faces, and I remember people I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve met in the past. But whenever I try to get a picture perfect memory of Cindy\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcs face or Seneca\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcs face or even my mom\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcs face I cannot. This is where photos are useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
