Today's Phenomenal Memory Tip

Events on June 28 

     1965 Monday - First combat forces in Viet  Nam.
     1971 Monday - Overturn of Muhammad Ali's draft evasion charge.
     1978 Wednesday - Supreme Court ruled that Allan Bakke, 38 was discriminated against in being denied
                                    admission tom medical school at University of California, Berkeley

     In the next few days I will teach you a technique for memorizing a year of the calendar. All you need to know is how to make pictures in your head, and do a very simple calculation.
     First, let's create some symbols for the months of the year.

     January - snow
     February - heart
     March - shamrock
     April - rain
     May - flower
     June - flag
     July - fireworks
     August - beach
     September - schoolbook
     October - pumpkin
     November - turkey
     December - Santa

     If you do not like some of these symbols you can create your own. For example - You might prefer a menorah to use for December instead of Santa, or a manger. It is important to create pictures that you are comfortable with.
      Tomorrow we will create symbols for the days of the week.
