Memory problems(I think I’ve always had them..)?

Can barely remember yesterday. Last year? Barely anything.
Yesterday I…*draws a blank*
It was Friday? Wow.
So I went to school…
No! I went to first period, then the doctor’s. Went home after that and slept because the previous night I got an hour of sleep.
That took…five minutes to remember? I can’t remember what happened when I woke up.
Two days ago all I remember is my mother saying I could sleep in, but I said no because I needed to go to first period for a review.
Three days ago…nothing. All the know is that I had to have gone to school.
This year I’m in class with someone I apparently had class with in freshman year. I don’t remember him, or the things he said we did.
One of my friends said sorry for how her friend treated me freshman year. I only remember she pants-ed me once, but my friends says she was really mean to me.
I can’t remember my last birthday, three months ago.
What did I get? Don’t remember.
I’m seventeen now, and, as you can see, am not "dumb".
I just can’t remember events of my life.
I can remember some things. My brother stealing my friends moped, putting a knife to my throat. I’ve had three girlfriends(I’m not the type to date, seems so stupid when they all end during the teenage years). And many other things.
But what I remember is fragmented, and barely what I should be able to remember.
Names blow right by me, it takes me a while to remember(days). I’m good with faces.
I do remember, say, Halo maps. I pick them up quick and never forget.
Ways to beat games, I know them. Shortcuts and tricks, I remember them.
What did you do yesterday? Um….
I do NOT do drugs…my brother did. I don’t like anything that has to do with my brother.
So, to end this rant.
Is something wrong? Could be be a defense mechanism caused by abuse by my brother? (Who is now out of the house, thankfully.)
Am I just not that good with remembering events?
