Continuous and Batch Process

Thought is a continuous process.  Every moment you are awake, the stimuli create memories.  Seldom are there times when a collection of experiences all coalesce into a huge set of memories.  We try for it, like in weddings, graduation ceremonies, funerals.  But if you stretch back, you can probably recall the little things that surrounded that big moment.

 How to deal with this in a story, the Kinda Like:
It's kinda like driving in a car.  Every foot, yard, mile; every stop, turn, lane change; everything that happens from the moment the car starts to the moment the engine is turned off is a continuous process.  The results of the trip are a batch process:  You left Point A and arrived at Point B.  You entire self arrived at Point B, at no time was a part of you at Point A and at Point B.

The trip is a continuous process, the results are a batch process.
