I understand the problem and I know everybody's different with memorizing. What helps me is writing down the aresti a couple of times and going over these notes before I got to sleep. Then, as I'm falling asleep I "fly" it in my mind. After a several days of this mixed in with trying to fly it in real life, it's locked in. It takes time, yes, but since I rarely if ever have a chance to practice with a caller it's been "the only way".
