We have encountered a lot of individuals in our life as our classmates. But honestly, in my case, I cannot remember all of them especially those people who are my prep school classmates. How about you? Can you remember all of your classmates before?

Hello, vesuvius. I think it's much difficult to remember all of our classmates. We should accept the fact that we human beings can not remember all of people we knew perfectly even after many years. Now I'm still a university student. Every year some of my classmates in senior high school hold a party on my teacher's home. It always happens on my classmates when they're watching the pictures of all of classmates. They'll ask me if I still remember him/her, sometimes yes, but not always. As time flying, some of memories in our mind will get blurred. Just try to cherish the perfect moment with the people around you, such as your friends, your family etc. Wish you happy every day! :)

You are absolutely right that it is not easy to remember all of them. I remember only those with whom I make a good friendship.Because good friends always remain in our heart and mind, we will never forget them till our last breath.

It depends because I have lots of classmates that I hate and so, I have forgotten them. But those that gave a good impact to me, I still remember.

aquamarine - I already have an Aquamarine which is my birthstone and a clear quartz, I have yet to make up my mind on what to buy next.
No I can't especially the ones from grade school. Yet I can still remember the ones who sat beside me or have been really close to me while I was still a student.

I can remember many of my former classmates, but definitely not all of them. I remember my close friends growing up, but I also remember some people I wish I'd forget! haha The mean people can make a really lasting impression! I hope I never had that impression on anyone growing up!! lol

I only remember, really, just a few of my classmates from high school and college at the places I studied at before. When I am in college I mostly get into the books, and am not very much into socializing.

I cannot. There are big changes already when a person gets older. Some are more prettier/ handsome while others don't! LOL.. Nah, pardon me but not all of them are recognized by me. ( I'm just human you know! ;) )

Nope mate!! I often fail to recall classmates by their name, though i am firly good at remembering their faces. But imagine the embarrasment, when sometimes i have had to interact with classdmates after a long time and i couldnt recall their names throughout the conversation. :P

Remember miller's magic number 7 plus or minus two? Average people remember only around 5 to 9 bits of information. Even if we opt to do chunking, I don't think remembering everybody's name is possible--at least, for the average sally or joe that i know.

I remember some of them, but not ALL of them. It`s absurdish. This kind of memories is not too important for me.So i subconsiously select and filter the memories.

when we go to the next level of education,i mean from kindergarten to higher level of education like University,we getting more and more classmates that we know and we kinda forgot about our classmates in kindergarten or primary school.So far,i remember a few of my classmates in primary school and none in kindergarten.In high school,i still can remember all of my classmates although now i'm a college students and i'm getting more classmates than before.So,it kinda hard to remember all of my classmates.Most of my friends now got a friendster or myspace account,so,it easier for me to remember them now and i'll not forget about their face or where they live now.

I definitely can't remember all my classmates.. I remember faces though, so I guess I'll recognize them if I happen to bump into them. But to name all of them just out the top of my head would be impossible! Go figure.. =P
