I,,, actually wasn't taught this? I taught myself to remember which way was West and which was East by recalling how my history books always called Japan the "Empire of the Rising Sun" (and I knew it was in the East) so boom. And then, I live on the West Coast, so that's also easy. Then I just have to remember North and South in relation to those *finger guns*

But yeah, I really don't remember any mnemonic phrase ever even being suggested to me.

Prok once said something about Nate and apple pie. I forget the context.

Have a good day.

"The trouble with Borrowing another mind was, you always felt out of place when you got back to your own body, and Granny was the first person ever to read the mind of a building. Now she was feeling big and gritty and full of passages. 'Are you all right?' Granny nodded, and opened her windows. She extended her east and west wings and tried to concentrate on the tiny cup held in her pillars."
— Terry Pratchett, Discworld: Equal Rites
