Shye found a lot of crystals in that mining expedition she went on 💎! Maybe I could get some 👀 but I can't quite remember what path she took...

Today's GAPP is a Persistence Of Memory!

Rules: Draw a non-intersecting path connecting the two circles. Cells used by the path (which are not consecutive line segments) do not touch orthogonally or diagonally. The path visits each shaded region at least once, and if two shaded regions are the same shape and orientation, the line segments within them (including entrances and exits) must be identical.

As always, an example puzzle and its solution are attached. I would highly recommend playing the example puzzle first-- you can do so here (Penpa+): https://git.io/JyRAI

To earn yourself a Speedy Sloth 🦥 remember the path in 2:30 or less!
To net yourself a Quick Crab 🦀 solve the puzzle in 6:00 or less!
All other solvers are well-deserving of a Memorizing Mourner 🐦!

Notation tip: Click the center of cells to place Xs and Os (click multiple times to toggle)! This can help you keep track of what cells can or can't be used by the path. These will not affect answer check!
