Writings in the Sand

Where or When?

When I was young, I used to experience déjà-vu quite often. It was slightly disturbing to feel that I had lived through an exact moment before but not know where or when.

Nowadays, they guess that déjà-vu is the result of a kind of hiccup in the hippocampus, confusing a present moment with a memory and causing a brief glitch in the memory matrix.

They also say déjà-vu happens most frequently between the ages of 15 and 25.

I realized the other day that I haven't had "déjà-vu" in years.

I don't have "avant vu", either. That would be more useful, but whatever.

I think mon déjà-vu a disparu.

Je suis perdu.
