Christmas is annoying.

As many of you know, I am living with my sister right now. She just got her Christmas tree up. Seems that I'm allergic. insert your own joke here, I'm too irritated to put one myself. (that was close enough to a pun, whatever.)

psychic/psycho.

So I'm having another one of those weird moments. I've told this to a ton of people and its met with a drawn-out "yeeeeeaaaaaaaaaah", "riiiiiiiiiight", or some other sacrastic comment. I had another one of those deja-vu episodes. Say what you will, but this has been happening since high school. First instance was when i dreamt about a wheel lying on the side of the road and the sun was making some weird yellow-green pea soup tinge that looked thick enough you could swim through it. Much later I found myself driving down the highway and I observed the same thing.
To go into further explanation, these episodes begin with dreams. Not fluid storylike dreams, but more fragmented; a jumble of images that usually appear in chronological order. The majority of the time when I dream I don't remember what happens, but when i have deja-vu I have major flashback- so something may have been retained in my subconscious. Also, these short story visions are always of non-importance- I mean, what is so important about seeing a wheel? Nothing else important happened that day. What's freaking me out is that this last episode was the most vivid that I've ever had.
What happened in my dream:
I was looking over someone in a room. This person had a silver hearing aid. There was a computer at a desk further in front of us. I sat next to the person and was asked a question. I glanced over at the paper being worked on, and gave a shrug and hand gesture. End dream.
What happened yesterday:
In my resource period I was assisting several people, including my hearing-disabled student in the newly set up senior lab. I was making my rounds and glanced down at him and his silver hearing aid. He was working hard on his assignment, and I went to ask how he was doing. When I glanced at my colleague's desk which had a computer monitor I started to have that funny feeling again. My student then asked for assistance and in my haze I didn't hear him, so I shrugged, hand gestured, and didn't answer.
This is really starting to freak me out, because I had this dream before I had ever set foot in my school, hell- even before I got out of college. What's gonna happen if I dream about something that was actually significant?

wait. does this mean i have super powers? cool. can I become an X-Man now?
