I cannot remember compass directions for the life of me. As a Midwesterner, I'm told that I'm supposed to have an innate ability to look at a cornfield and know which way is west or whatever, but I can't do it. I still get around by landmarks.

I can sort of "get" distances just by estimating inches or feet and then mentally multiplying, but time totally eludes me--particularly recently, it's sort of scary. Movies feel like they're ten minutes long.

I'm pretty good at basic algebra, too. Weirdly, I kind of like solving simple equations, but just because, hey, sense of accomplishment! Beyond that it's a pain in the ass.
