I always put my active items in the 1, 2, and 3, pockets.
this happens to me all the time 123 are above qwe so it makes it easier to remember.. then... you just gotta keep thinking about it.. practice using it. I still forget sometimes... but you will get the hang of it slowly like I am.
T and Y are sorta harder to get to.
I like to call this.. Bronzie forgetfullness syndrom... We know what we should be doing... but when we enter the rift we forget everything... Sorta like anxiety to a test.. we studied hard for.. but when the exam is on the desk you know know any of the answers. You start to freak out, and get mad. go afk lol
