Have you ever gone somewhere that you have never been to before, or seen someone and pause and think my god I feel like I have been here before or I know this person but from where and when? It has happened to me and it blew my mind. I was passing thru this town in the country where I am in now and I saw this house and I was like I know this place I have been here in this house but in truth I never was it was so weird.

Heh, déjà-vu can most likely be explained scientifically. Many psychiatrists believe it's a simple mismatching in the brain, mistaking the present for past. I say that's a pretty plausible explanation

I have experienced such situations many times in my life. This happened more often when I was a child. I constantly used to talk about it to my father and he used to explain the cause. Its only a matter of delayed nervous processing of one side of the brain that gives the impression of "already experienced". But the term has deeper meanings in parapsychology considering it as a backfire of the previous lives. But personally, when this happens to me, I feel relaxed and like others I too have a big question mark in front of me. But thats OK for me nowadays, as I have the explanation behind it.

I did back in the 7th grade. Two months prior before I went on a trip at time I didn't know I was even going to take a trip. I had a very strange dream and really didn't make sense what it meant. The dream showed me walking in some angle high grass going towards a wooded area with very tall trees. The area I was walking was clear so I could walk in line with trees, about 30 yards come up on a clearing and once I cleared the trees and seeen what I seen I stopped in my tracks and said OMG I seen this entire place in my dream to the " T " Before I tell what I seen, let me share were my trip took me. I read an in paper about a saturday bus drive trip, it was going to Atlanta, Ga to Six Flags. Being a kid I was, after all, I only had $30.00 I been saving up. Back then $30.00 would fill two tanks of gas. The ride down cost a $10 bill, that only left me $20 and I frowned. Traveling in a yellow school with an unknown crowd we finally arrived at Six Flags over Georgia. I started counting money which wasn't hard to do, is only one twenty dollar bill. Being young and dumb back then which I was pretty clever, after all I was kid only in the 7th grade and I did pass the 6th. We all unloaded the bus and went our seperate ways but towards the gate. Some other guys tagged along with me, I guess because I was doing all the talking along the way. We finally walked the parking lot from the end to the front, while standing in line we all heard the prices to pay. Well, we did know the price going down, but standing in line I made a comment. I said guys, you know what, we are kids and what's the worse then could happen. They asked what are you talking about. Did you all notice that grassy hill coming in with the tall fence to keep other out. They said, yea. Well, you know what we could do is crawl under the fence and get in for free. Three of us took off down the parking lot where the bus was parked. Some other kids heard of us talking and few more tagged along. The fence was pretty tall and spaced out wide with poles so this left middle pretty loose and flemsy. Raised the bottom side as easy can be, crawled under wire and ran up the grassy hill. Now were at top, walking to the trees, and here comes with what I seen. As I round the trees to the clearing, there stood a square fence with eletrical power boxes and all. Then I stopped in my tracks and I said uh oh, the others said what's wrong. I said, believe it or not, I seen this spot in my dream two months ago. It sorta scared me and stood me in my tracks, I told the other fellows, they better be carefull. Another fifty yards or so we came up on the rides. But on the other side. All we had to do was going under the tracks where the roller coaster came through. Then I knew this must be dajavu, I was thinking through what I seen and here I stood living the dream. I had two choices to make, turn back or go on through. All I had do was clear 10 foot to make it in the amusement park and be in the crowd. I looked very carefull cause I seen how dangerous it could be, wasn't to clever to save a few dollars when it could of been the end for me. In my dream and what I seen represented electricity. So as I recall at that very moment, was not to touch anything according to my dream. It was like a warning you had to read. We all made it through and I kept my feet on the ground. So there was no high rides or spinning my feet, I stayed grounded all day long. My $20.00 dollar bill I had, really had fun with. Matter of fact I went home with a profit. You know the games the amusements has, where you pay a buck to play to win a prize. It was like everything I touched I won a prize. Boy did I when some big stuff animals. I do remember I had so many prizes, I heard the little girl crying to her mother as they walked by, she wanted a stuff animal and the mother said no. I looked at my prizes and I picked up pretty stuffed animal and ran over to the little girl and I said here you can have mine. I couldn't stay for any thank you's or couldn't take it, I had prizes unattended. Since I was on a roll with all those stuffed animals and they were really nice if I remember too. I sold my stuff animals for $3 to $5 each and went home with a profit and few animals too.

I have had some experiences that can be called as dejavu. In fact they were very scary to me and took only a few seconds to feel. I don't clearly remember what happened but when I was at a friend's home and chatting with each other, I suddenly felt I was not there, or I was watching myself from somewhere inner, deeper in my mind. We were chatting, I was talking but I was watching myself from my brain, I was already aware about what I was going to say,and what answer I will recieve from my friend. It took only a few seconds. I said her one thing and she answered,then I felt the thing I tried to explain above and then I was just checkng stuff from my inner side and I was already sure about what I was going to say and how she was going to reply. Then, my thoughts were correct, I was just very amazed and scared in that situation, feeled a bit dizzy and when it was over I told my friend about this issue and she (and her husband) were really amazed as well. I don't simply know the reasons of dejavu yet but it happened to me 2 times like I mentioned above. Whenever it happened, I couldn't take it out of my head for hours because it had a very big effect on me. Both excitement and fear. I hope I will advance it somehow :) It might be useful really.!

Alot of wierd and crazy things happen to us that are unexplainable, like sometimes you feel like you are being watched, you look around but there is no one there and yet you can feel that someone is watching you.

You know that's happened to me before. I was sitting down talking with my sister when i had to stop her and asked her if we had this conversation before. It's like i could remember being in the same place sitting in the same spot discussing the same thing. It's as if i knew everything she was going to tell me, but that could'nt be seeing that this was something that just happened to her. I just got this creepy feeling. Like we had been through it before.
