Studying maps is a hobby of mine. I can spend hours on Google Maps. But using one to actually navigate is another thing. Especially something like a mall directory. I have very poor navigational skills.
Except when playing Lord of the Rings Online. I can navigate that pretty good. If I have been all over those areas multiple times. Starting out though, I get lost a lot and end up falling off cliffs and such.
My navigational skills are horrible. The only time I know where different places are if I've been there long enough. It's taken me a while to find my way through my college campus and I'm glad that I know it well. Well.... at least with the buildings I've had classes in.
I can't navigate at all, unless it is on a pathway I have already taken several times before. Luckily there is GPS, and smartphones. I was one of the first people I know of to buy a portable GPS for my car back in 2005, and from that moment on traveling/driving anxiety disappeared completely. It was impossible for me to get lost.
