Have you ever felt someone staring at you? You turn around only to find someone sheepishly looking away. You were right you realise. Have you ever had a dangerous feeling as though something terrible was about to happen only to realise something bad does happen? Why didn't you listen to yourself? Is it because you know you can't see the future? Or can you? I believe there is such thing as a sixth sense. There is something there. A subtle field around your entity perhaps? Whatever you'd like to call it, there is another mysterious force outside our normal five physical senses.
I'll give you an example of what I mean through an anecdote. I recently finished high school which means I have absolutely nothing to do except write blogs and get a job. I chose the latter though after I finish my story it will become obvious why I'm now writing a blog instead of serving a fat guy at a fast food outlet. I went to send out my resume's to various place's about a week ago only to discover within my own consciousness I knew the place's that would reject me and the place's that would take my resume happily before it actually happened. I particularly got negative vibes from a place called Lewrap in my local shopping centre and I now wish I listened to those vibes before shaking them off and handing my resume into that place.
I went job hunting on a Monday after printing out various copies of my resume at the local library. I then hopped on a bus to Westfields or "Westies" as the "hip" kids call it. I already had a list of the places I wanted to work and so I went to Darrel Lea first, but before entering I had the strangest vibes. They were cold and negative and I knew before I went in there that there would be no spot for me. Of course I shrugged the feeling off and walked in there anyway only to discover that they already had enough people working there. The boss was also kind of a bitch but I practically forced my resume in her hand with a "Call me if you need me anyway". I went to Boost Juice next and I had fairly positive vibes from them. My "vibes" were correct because they were very friendly to me and asked me some questions. They said they would call when a spot opened up. I had no idea when that would be so I continued to my next place, LeWrap.
When I saw the actual shop my whole body told me to avoid it. I had the worst feeling about that place. I told myself it was because only girls were working there, and that I, a girl, could not get along with girls because they're always hiding something. Boys are easier to understand.
I walked to the counter anyway and gave them my resume. They were perfectly friendly but I just had a sickening feeling. After applying to more places I knew would not need me due to my feelings I went home and applied for some more places online.
The next day, I was called in for a trial job at LeWrap which then made me think that my vibes and feelings were all wrong and I was just being stupid. Of course I wasn't as you will soon realise. It was a very hot day (It's summer in Sydney) and I took a bus to Lewrap in black pants, black shoes and a black top like instructed and got there on time. I was told to put on a very smelly LeWrap top while the boss gave me all the details. She hates mess and slow people I soon realised. She handed me a menu and asked me to learn the various wraps until it got busy where I would then be on toaster duty. Simple enough.
At about noon, an hour after I'd arrived, it started to get busy. I then insisted to help with the toaster duty. All I had to do was get out the wraps when they were ready and place them in a foil bag when they were brownish. "With tongs!" to open up the bag apparently and not with my newly gloved hands. So I put two toasted wraps in their foiled bags and was about to call out the number when I started to feel dizzy. The heat of the summer's day, coupled with the toaster no doubt. Not to mention my heat absorbing attire. I told the lady and she took me out the back while the bitch-face I would have to work with gave me dirty looks from across the counter.
Everything was still spinning and I found myself having a relaxing dream about a yellow school bus with a glass floor, clear enough allow me to see hundreds of goblins chasing me. I woke up in my bed... so peaceful. And then reality set in. All the sound came flooding back in my ears and the shop formed around me again. The boss was worried sick for obvious reasons, sitting me up and giving me heaps of water. My head was bleeding and I had a bump so big you could mistake it for a mountain. The ambulance was called even though I was fine.
The whole experience was very embarrassing of course and even though the boss told me I'd get another chance, it's been a week and I can no longer set foot on level five of Westfields ever again. Lewrap practically guards the entrance to the food courts. Damn it!
The point is I felt like something very bad was about to happen before it happened. I didn't know what, it just felt all wrong. How could I have possibly felt this way when my five senses gave nothing away about the future. I'd always enjoyed LeWrap and had nothing against it previously until I actively walked up to the counter to give in my resume. The experience got me thinking of all the other experiences similar to this I've had. It seems as though I constantly catch people looking at my direction to the point that I ignore it now. When I'm out in public I just don't look at anything except my lap or whatever is straight in front of me because I know if I looked anywhere else someone's eyes will be on mine. I sometimes look around for fun and I mentally laugh as I see people's heads' turn quickly the opposite way.Has anyone else had experiences such as these? Vibes? Sensing things when you can't see, hear, feel, smell or taste something? You just "know"? I would love to hear of them.
There must be some sort of force that scientists have not detected as of yet that allow humans and other animals to sense things that are outside the physical range of senses. Is there a sixth sense? And is this sense so strong in some that it allows themselves to be called a "psychic"? It's all very interesting and maybe we will never know.
