Short-Term Memory (Working Memory)
memories we are currently working with and are aware of in our consciousness. Everything you are thinking at the current moment is held in your short-term or working memory. Short-term memories are temporary. If we do nothing with them, they usually fade in 10-30 seconds.

Examples: Reading, Eating lunch, Writing, Parking a car, Having a conversation, task “carrying over” a number in a subtraction sum, or remembering a persuasive argument until another person finishes talking), and simultaneous translation (where the interpreter must store information in one language while orally translating it into another).

Long term examples: include recollection of an important day in the distant past (early birthday, graduation, wedding, etc), and work skills you learned in your first job out of school. Learning how to walk, Learning a new fact, remembering a friends name, riding a bike, etc.
