Interesting things for me

I have always been interested in stuffs like déjá vu feeling, amnesia, insomnia or simply human sleeping. One thing that made me surprised was in listening and speaking seminar. I found out that another girl showed interest in déjá vu feeling and study of sleeping too. I was taken aback because I had also been planning to perform these themes but finally I chose Madame Tussaud’s life.

Anyway, déjá vu feeling can be described as an already seen or already experienced situation. Everybody can meet this kind of feeling that can last from 10 to 30 seconds. As I read déjá vu happens mainly to people between 15 and 25 years old. Other age group also realize it but as a person is getting older the frequency of this phenomenon is decreasing. The other strange thing I read and did not understand why it was important factor that people with higher income experience déjá vu more frequently. Besides, the more you travel the more probable you’ll feel it.
One of my personal experiences took place in a seminar, listening and speaking, when I felt for a long time that once I had been there, I had been sitting there sometime in the past. It was so weird feeling.

By the way, the girl I wrote about had said, in relation to sleeping, that 20% of the people dream in black and white. I have never seen a black and white picture in my dreams so far. But the other mentioned vision in dreams, that a person who is dreaming is falling, was dreamt by a lot of people around me as well as by me. A stressful kind of life, anxiety and sometimes circulatory disorder can cause this dream.

The relation between déjá vu and dreams maybe that some scientists say people feel déjá vu because they have already dreamt about that certain situation.
If so, can we predict our events of our life?

An Inconvenient Truth

Not long ago, the last Tuesday as usually I went to American Corner to watch a movie with my friends. Till we got there I believed that another movie would be presented but we were shown the An Inconvenient Truth. Before the start of the film a native English speaker teacher of University of Pécs performed the real problem of the world that was summarized in the movie: global warming.
The film by Al Gore represents the way our climate changes and has changed so far. Al Gore says the global warming and the things relates to it are not a political but a moral issue. He says that people should hold together and do something to prevent that can be prevented yet. So this film calls our attention to the approaching dangers.
For instance it made perceptible what would happen if the idea of sinking headlands referred to Florida and Shanghai or India. During the presentation pointed out that they would sink under water and lot of people would die I was shivering.
Another effect of the global warming on the world that shocked me was polar bears have not enough ice swimming on the water to climb on and rest after swimming a lot, so some of them drown.
Besides, there was an explanation what causes the global warming. The rays of the Sun are not allowed to leave after entering and warming up the Earth because of the harmful gases that we, human beings produce every day.
So I think the most desperate thing of all that the global warming exists due to US.
