bitchy_merlinI AM GOING TO FAIL MY COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY EXAM.
Why? you ask.
Because for the last significant portion of my life, instead of studying with the online flashcards or summarizing my notes, or anything useful, I have converted my notes on memory into... a spoof of the Powerthirst video.
For reference, chunking is a process that aids in memory, and is defined in my notes as: Combining small units into larger ones, such as when individual words are combined into a meaningful sentence.

HEY
Do you want to remember SO MUCH?
Try CHUNKING: a memory strategy for people who need GRATUITOUS AMOUNTS OF MEMORY! With all new features such as Rehearsal! It's like repeating things FOREVER! Sound the alarm! Things are going to be UNCOMFORTABLY MEMORABLE!
What's that? You want coding? How about SEMANTIC CODING: coding with meaning! REAL MEANING! TESTS - you'll be good at them! It's a memory strategy for STM... WORKING MEMORY! These aren't small units - these are large units! CHUNKED UNITS! CHUNKS - MEMORY - CHUNKS - MEMORY. Short-term memory, long-term memory, more memory than YOUR BRAIN HAS ROOM FOR!
You'll remember so much, your professor will be like "Sloooooooowwww dowwwwwwnnn" and you'll be like "FUCK YOU!" and kick them in the face with your MEMORY CHUNKS. You'll have so much memory (MEMORY!) - just chunking ALL THE TIME. Power chunking, power coding, power retrieving, power attending, power conversing, power encoding... YOU'LL HAVE SO MANY MEMORIES! 400 Reading Span Test answers!
Use chunking in your Reading Span Test and you'll be good at encoding! You'll encode things ABNORMALLY FAST.
You'll chunk as much as EXPERTS. People will watch you chunk and think you're and EXPERT. You'll chunk as well as EXPERTS against actual EXPERTS and it will be a tie and you'll get declared an EXPEEEERRRRRRTTT.
HEY.
Go with the sure thing.
Don't gamble on your memory. TRY CHUNKING TODAY.

...Somehow, I don't think this would be an acceptable answer to any question my prof could ask.
WHAT IS MY LIFE.
