Yeah, the next time some Djinni gives me advice, I'm taking it. Maybe... lol. I think I'd like having that good of a memory, which in all likelihood is photographic. Would you? |

Yes, it would be nice to have a photographic memory. We just have to read our text books once & we will ace all the exams! |

Even the bad & embarrassing ones? Personally, I would like to forget all the detrimental memories & remember the rest. Since that's not possible, I'm happy with the way I'm now. I always write all my happy memories in a diary, so I can't forget them-ever. |

The bad ones help make us, so I'll keep those. Even if they're bad. I've got a pretty good memory, but only having to read a book once would be nice. |

Bad events are crucial to who we are. "Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement." You lose the memories of times things went wrong, you lose that experience. |

Oh, I musn't have said I wish to completely forget all the bad ones. Careless sentence. Still, just the outlines of the embarrassing ones would be enough...not all the details. |

Boy? I'm a girl! Just kidding. I know you didn't mean it that way. Though the details can help, it can be damaging to one's image of oneself too. Yeah, the details are necessary, but to an introvert person, it can be quite a hinderance towards development. |

I voted for smarts, because all the other demons out there are pretty much as dull as humans, Honorius and Bartimaeus exempted. |
