Deja Vu

with 14 days of holidays to boot.. i really don't have anything much to do other than sleeping, watching television(the endless tirade of boring channels.. never ends.. i can never stop either..), or doing both at the same time. Skipping through, the trailer of the movie Deja Vu caught my eye. It wasn't the Movie which attracted me.. it was the title..
wht is Deja Vu??
the term "déjà vu" (French for "already seen", also called paramnesia) describes the experience of feeling that one has witnessed or experienced a new situation previously. The term was coined by a French psychic researcher, Émile Boirac (18511917) in his book L'Avenir des sciences psychiques (The Future of Psychic Sciences), which expanded upon an essay he wrote while an undergraduate French concentrator at the University of Chicago. The experience of déjà vu is usually accompanied by a compelling sense of familiarity, and also a sense of "eerieness", "strangeness", or "weirdness". The "previous" experience is most frequently attributed to a dream, although in some cases there is a firm sense that the experience "genuinely happened" in the past. Déjà vu has been described as "Remembering the future".(wikipedia)
All of us have had a sense of Deja Vu. It could be the little girl u saw at the railway station,the drooling old woman with the cancerous jaw, the e-mail with the Id abt which u dreamed, or even the sessional marks for the current semester. We feel as though it happened in the past. it sometimes strange, even scary. I'll tell you something which i felt as a very stong feeling of Deja Vu.
i used to go for tutions for science subjects during my high school days. every day morning i used to wake up, attend the classes half asleep and go to school. One morning i remember dreaming about walkin a straight long road by the side of a meadow. i'm walkin and walkin.. and some one calls out to me for the time.. pretty normal dream right?
there is a long stretch of road from sreekariyam junction to my school. in the wee hours of the morning(let's say 8 o clock.. not exactly wee hrs!).. the road is pretty much deserted.. i am walkin. i see this nun walkin on the opposite side. i crossed her and walked about five feet.. when i heard this voice call out to me.. what's the time...
I TURNED... and u wudn't believe wht the wolf saw...

to be contd..
