When my husband and I went to Bloomington, Indiana we found a world map and I wanted to buy one but they do not have which I can fold as what they have is together with the cardboard and it is a big one and it is hard to carry. I always wanted to have a world map as it reminds me studying of world geography and I wanted to put in my mind where the countries are located in the map. I used to memories it but now I forgot, I do still remember all the countries in Europe, Asia, South America but some of them I cannot locate in the map without a tag or name on it. I remember during our exam of our world geography, our professor did give us world map which there is no name and the test we are going to name the countries in just about 15-20 minutes and that was quick and I am glad I passed the exam as I did memorize them all the whole night. It was not an easy exam as you need name the entire map. I was happy I passed and if I have enough time, I could have got higher score but at least I got grade of 84 and I wanted 85-90 and the good thing I got line of “8” than “7.” It was a fun exam and I enjoyed it since studied and passed the exam. My husband and I when we do not have nothing to talk about we test each other like he will say the capital and I will say the country and we have fun testing each other (he-he) but mostly he can answer than I do.
