Your short-term memory isn't the best. But don't get upset - no one can remember everything. Scientists have discovered that the faster a person forgets old and unneeded information, the quicker they'll absorb new information. The chances are you're very good at taking on new information. And your memory can always be developed - you just have to commit some time to it.
