What is a normal amount of forgetfulness at 19?

Health/Medical

I know it's normal to forget or misplace stuff from time to time, but is it normal to misplace and forget stuff daily? I have never been able to keep the same water-bottle or earbuds for more than 2 months because I keep forgetting that I have one. Almost everything I place down I forget where I placed them. Even if I have a designated spot to place it in, I ether forget to put it there or forget about the designated spot. I forget to lock the doors to my car whenever I drive them to the store sometimes even leaving the keys in the car. I constantly forget my train of thought while talking or forget what I wanted to do when I go to a room. These are not all the things I forget, but Am I overreacting or is this a bit much?
