Oxidation - reduction mnemonic.

Hey guys..
So a lot of times I have observed that inspite of knowing redox reactions and the flow of electrons, I sometimes forget whether oxidation is loss of electrons or gain?
And what is more painful, that it always happens at absolutely crucial times, like..


While answering a viva.
While writing a test.
While balancing a chemical equation.
While dating.
While praying.
While..
Just the f*** up
Sorry. So here I made a mnemonic that helped me remember the mechanism pretty well.
Here's the mnemonic:
We all know that oxidation is ....is...umm... Damn it I forgot :(
..

Yeah Oxidation is loss of electrons, whereas reduction is gain of electrons.
Let's write it this way.
Loss of Electrons - Oxidation.
Gain of Electrons - Reduction.
