take a piece of paper and write the japanese on one side, the english or w/e on the other side

as for using them, just take some and memorize them and then test urself with them later

When I was in highschool Drama classes, we had to prepare a 5 minute monologue, and perform it in front of about 100 people.
The way that we memorized it, was we would write it over and over and over again. Then read it (after writing every time), and after reading it we'd try to recite it from memory.
We had a very short amount of time to prepare for the monologues, so this technique of memorization payed off quite well.

Like Kellyan95, I relate things to music or whathaveyou, as a means of remembering specific things.
One of the easiest ways to do this, is pick a word or verse from your favorite song (that you know by heart, of course), and "attach" the thing you're trying to memorize to that word/verse.

Think about this - humans are said to only use 10%-25% of their brain.
Consider how much of that 10%-25% is tied to memorizing lyrics to music... I figure that if I already have like 500 songs memorized, why not just attach details of things I'm trying to memorize to them?

Sometimes... you don't memorize songs, but parts of movies.

That happened with me and the Matrix Revolutions. I can recite the final brawl word for word, and imagine it in my head, in HD. Who needs HD DVD when you got your brain?

    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
