German has "vorgestern" (fore-yesterday, sort of) and "übermorgen" (over-tomorrow). Which helps me remember the Chinese ones because "vor" in the spatial sense is 前. :)

That sounds very useful!
I get so confused with 前, coming from English. It feels like it means two exactly opposite things, since I think of the past as something that's behind you. I mean, I do realize the word "before" has these same two opposite meanings -- if you stand "before" something, it's in front of you, but if it happened "before," it's behind you. I get how it makes sense! But since English mostly uses "before" for temporally past things and "in front" for spatially forward things, and we talk about looking "back" on the past and "ahead" to the future, I just can't seem to wrap my head around "in front" and "past" not being opposites. :|
(To be fair, this is not specifically a problem with learning Chinese. I think every other language I've studied has the same word for "in front" and "past," too. It confuses me every time!)

I think every other language I've studied has the same word for "in front" and "past," too.
Yeah, I wonder why that is! Like you say, we think of the past as behind us and the future in front, and yet! Language is really strange sometimes ...

You know what, I think I have the same problem only with 后！ Something that's behind you shouldn't be the thing that comes afterward...
no subject
I have some trouble remembering which way 上/下 work for time, too, though in that case I think I just default to wanting both of them to mean "next/later." I guess "up" and "down" both seem futur-y to me... up ahead, down the road, coming up, somewhere down the line...
no subject
(Sometimes I have to repeat them in order, 上中下, to remember which is which ...)
no subject
True! Oh dear, I mostly know "future prospects from the saying 前途多难, which is not exactly propitious. And then there's 后悔...
I guess "up" and "down" both seem futur-y to me... up ahead, down the road, coming up, somewhere down the line...
That's another really good point. I think I have this vague mental picture of 上 past things as up on a shelf behind my left shoulder somewhere, goodness knows where that came from.
