Why don't I remember

Today I was planning to make my C. V or resume for my first corporate internship. So I browsed through the internet what people usually write. And I came across this heading called academic achievements. And I was like whoa "I barely did anything". Then I saw I had some certificates. While going through them I was really shocked because I really didnt remember anything about it. I mentioned earlier in a post that I never had a career goal. But when I was 12 years old, I wrote in my report card " my goal is to become an architect". It was supposed to be part of beautiful memories but I didn't have any. It made me happy and sad at the same time. More sad because I really undermined myself for so many years that my brain didn't even consider it to save it in long term memory. I have many incidents like this which make me to believe that do I have aspergers or something else?

I'm really curious and I need to know the reason why is this happening to me, what caused me to forget my most of the childhood!!!

Thank you for reading. You are welcome to write any suggestions or your part of the story.

hey , actually I have the opposite problem. I remember everything and that is a cure and a blessing. btw all the best for your internship. you will do well … I am still in school and though I think im relatively good my parents keep beating me up and making me feel useless. so my self esteem is really low and they keep bullshitting my dreams. well my parents make all my achieves seem like nothing .

I think it’s pretty normal to not remember everything. As you make new memories, your brain let’s go of old memories. It just can’t store everything.
