Akira Okihu Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 *First of all, excuse my English, I am a Romanian. I have been told that I use way too many times in phrases without any actual need to do so. Other than that, I believe my English is ok.* I will not jump to any conclusions, saying that I time traveled and that I saw drastic changes in the world. Nope. Not at all. Right now I am 16 years old, found this forum more by chance. (I got interested in John Titor) I have a little question: how strong can a deja-vu be? I remember, about 6 years ago, I was in my English class when the teacher began talking about something. (and we needed to write it down) Unfortunately, I don't have the notebooks from 6 years ago anymore, so I am unsure about what the lesson was about. Also, I didn't take any other formal English education than what I learned in school and from the PC. (though the PC mostly formed my vocabulary) It is one of the few memories that remain vivid in my memory. The teacher began telling us what to write down, and after about a quarter of the page being written I realized I already knew that lesson. Not like in learning it from somewhere else, but that I could remember the structure of the lesson (how it was written in my notebook) and what followed. (though I couldn't say exactly word for word what the lesson was about, I felt I had already listened to it and learned it) Wanting to show the fact that I learned what we were taught a week ago, I started looking back in my notebook for the lesson. But it wasn't where it should've been. Instead, the lesson from a week ago was something completely alien to me, I had never seen it before, though I knew the lesson after it and the lesson before it. I started looking even further back in my notebook, but the lesson wasn't there. I then realized (more like accepted) the fact that the lesson wasn't in our notebooks and the teacher didn't tell us about it. It's not that the teacher told us about it but we didn't write, because I could recall how the words were arranged. Probably it was some kind of very strong deja-vu, but I still find it quite an interesting memory. What do you guys think? Did anything like this happen to you?

Nicolas Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 What a "coincidence". I had a deja vu today myself. Although it never occurred to me as a "premonition" sorta speak. I never know what will be the next thing to happen. It's more like as I have that feeling, I'm under the impression I've seen that happen before. It's a surprising sensation.

pinterest Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 All of what Akira O said False memories can be tricky.Go to the original Manchurian Candidate movie that starred Frank Sinatra.At the beginning of the movie I believe one of the people walks to a pier and jumps into the water.This is because false memories can cause disturbances within the human psyche, but not in the same fashion as a check-sum in a computer.The odd actions indicates false programming.This is all that I can say.Pinter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akira Okihu Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 The name "false memories" didn't quite occur to me. Nice idea, I will research more on this subject. My theory (that I came up with yesterday) was that my brain experiences a deja-vu so it thought I have already written that lesson. Given that I was a quarter into the lesson when I "realized", my brain could've played a neat trick on me. Seeing how the first quarter of the lesson was written and knowing how I tendxto write, it could've anticipatrd the way the lesson would look when fully completed, and so it gave birth to a false memory. Not a premonition, more like a complex profess the brain used to deceive itself. (I am sprry forr any errors, I am on mmy phone and can't see what I am writing, my phone likes to mess with me, not sure why. I'll recheck and correct any errors as soon as I get to a PC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulaJedi Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Deja Vu can be strong. I read a recent article about a young man experiencing it so strongly that he thought he was caught in a time loop daily. I wish I remembered where I read that. He was a college student. Anyway, it's a psychological phenomenon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gpa Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I have a little question: how strong can a deja-vu be? Probably it was some kind of very strong deja-vu, but I still find it quite an interesting memory. We have had some interesting discussions along those lines here: http://timetravelinstitute.com/threads/a-discovered-time-traveler.8201/ Check it out if you want.
