    do you believe in supernatural?
    even since im little, i dreamt for example, that i will drink strawberry milk tea with my uncle in a specific restaurant, and after a few days, the dream came true!!! i told my parents but they just said it's just random. But this happened to me a lot of times! sometimes it came true after two year, sometimes it came true in a week, it varies. And the strangest thing is that when it comes true, my mood and feeling is exactly the same in my dream!
    so i did a bit of research on it (but not much)

    research:
    there was a believe in the elizabeth time (shakespearn time) that dreams tell you about fate and future, but dream cannot be possible to be the future because dream is what you experienced or heard before. for example, if you are told about hamburgers, you might dream of it. dreams can pick up the earliest memory of you and combine if other memories and keep combining until you have a strange dream (like driving a car into a tree) so therefore, dream is just a recalling of the past, of your memory.

    if that's the case, why do yuou dream about the future??? hwo does it work??

    does this happen to anyone of you? i asked most of my friends and they experienced the same thing too. i think our revolution is changing! that we, the young ppl have some special mind different to the ppl like our parents.

    can you define dream first?

    some say you dream because you can't have it in reality.

    myths say people can dream of the future or past, this kind of speech would likely come from a spiritual person lol.

    from my own experience, i have dreamed of some thing like 2 years ago and it happen recently.

    i would say, let the science do its job lol.

    oppps, science vs spiritual = argueeee XD

    i would like to believe in the supernatural coz that will make the world so much a warzone but more fun in a way :/
    however the only supernatural thing i have seen is that drama series Charmed and Supernatural LOLOL

    but when i dream (asleep) i do somehow forget it.. well msot of them i do then when i'm just doing my own business it feels like de javu but i got told it is the way we are so used to seeing specific things and doing specific things that it is always in our minds that causes the de javus

    Happens to me once or twice...
    But when that dream comes to reality, it hits you really hard immediately..
    You suddenly have this sensation like, "Wow, I swear that happen exactly in my dream 3 yrs ago"
