Bad Memory?

I often forget alot, like where i left my keys, what i ate last night or what i am suppose to do, what this person said what that person asked me....

Does anyone experience this? Does anyone know why this happens?

Do i have a bad memory? Short term memory?

I can remember what i studied in school many years ago, like history, math and science but why can't i not remember easy simple things? I am only 28 years old, this started when i was 19years. Everyone has always said that i am careless and forgetful.

I am always forgetting something? How do i train my mind to remember, to listen, register and most importantly store what i am doing or what is being said and done?

Any info or experiences would be useful.

Thanks

Mellisa
