im no sure if this is amnesia or not but this has happened a few times now.. i have a college class at 7pm on tuesdays. i leave for class at 6:30pm. i know this, yet once already i have looked at the time, but did not realise what it meant, and went to leave much later, around 7:30. then, yesterday, same class, i looked at my schedule all day to make sure that i had the right time, and i looked at the clock, started to get ready, and left at 5:15 for it. i didnt realise until i got to school and my gf texted me asking y i left so early. i look at the time,, i read it, i can function properly, yet i dont make the connection or realisation till its too late. what could thismean? is this an odd form of temporary amnesia or is it some other neurological thing?
