  • My pop taught me the usefulness of mnemonic devices to remember stuff.

    E.g., Visualize a compass, or map display of the cardinal directions.

    Starting at the top with North, going clockwise:

    Never Eat Slimy Worms

    OR

    Never Eat Soggy Waffles

    AND my personal favorite

    Nosy Elephants Spray Water

    You get the gist. Another way to remember East and West, is to remember when facing North it spells WE on a compass, as in, "WE will remember the cardinal directions.
