    Default Highlights, Stress, Sickness, Signs from the Universe (cue eerie music)

    At the risk of sounding completely insane....


    From a young age, I've always believed in a higher power, though I wasn't sure what/who it was.

    I'd get these "signs" that things should/shouldn't happen. Ex. I feel sick one day...turns out I shouldn't be going where I was supposed to bc something bad would've happened to me...stuff like that. I always have believed that if you just listen to things around you, they will guide you in the right direction. It's just a matter of taking the time out and trusting yourself to listen...

    This week, I've been majorly stressed out between registering for classes for grad school, having problems using their computer system since I'm new to the school, having to write 2 more unexpected essays for a field placement application, worrying about having to miss some days of the field placement since I've had a vaca planned before I even knew I wanted to try and get into the school, worrying about going from black to blond highlights and how that could be majorly screwed up and how the $ could be screwed up, etc...

    So the night before I was supposed to get my highlights, I felt really anxious and even had a dream about the hair. I then woke up and felt nauseous, threw up, had diarrhea, felt weak, and had the chills for the whole day - this was Mon (cancelled hair apt, needless to say). Diarrhea and vomit went away Tues, but still felt bad. Thought I was getting better Wed and made apt for today (Thurs)...I felt fine until...this morning again...I had to cancel my hair apt once again. I felt horrible bc I don't like taking up sections of people's time when they expect money, esp. Once again, though, basically right after I canceled, I felt close to fine again.

    Is this a sign that I shouldn't get my highlights done by this person bc they will be majorly screwed up and mess w my confidence, and therefore my money, at work?

    Am I just sick bc of all of the stress combined?

    Does anyone else believe that the universe gives out these "signs"...or do you think that we have a type of hindsight bias where we look back and link the signs to stuff that happened after they happen and then make things make sense in our minds?

    Should I not get my hair done by this person? I've had it done by her before and she's done fine...at least 2 other times.

    I believe in a similar philosophy to yours, along the whole metaphysics line. Sometimes though, you're just plain old sick. Glad your hair turned out well.

    Oh I think everything happens for a reason. Like last summer I wanted to plan a trip to see my dad in DC...I ended up having to go a week sooner than I had planned on goin,bc I had a glucose test to do for my pregnancy. Sure enough,a week after I had left,the metro (Subway) that I had rode on crashed. WTF.
    and then Maybe a few days before or after the crash,the holocaust memorial that I had went to had gotten shot up by some crazy jew hating lunatic.
    I is a mommy.

    i belive that there are things that help us along with our desicisions in life,

    i get gut feelings really bad sometimes and almost always used to ignore them, untill i came to realise one day i had to trust them, these days im gettin good at knowin whats going to happen and whats going to be said, wierd i know but sometimes when im talkin to someone i can pretty much guess what they are going to say next, and ill think to myself, i knew you were gonna say that. only happens a few times a week, but its gettin more frequent, when i relax and have nothin to worry about i can feel and see more clearly what these "signs" are saying. sometimes i wont realise till after ive done it but, ill respond to someone before they have had time to respond to my previouse sentence.

    my mum is very spiritual in the whole wiccan thingy, i dont practice anything but im slowly noticing things anyway, i was also born as an indigo child which are sposed to have certain abilities, i dunno exactly what they are but its just what my mum told me, she tries to encourage me to practice little rituals etc.

    i also seem to hate technology, almost all ellectrical things break on me or dont work for some reason, yet when i ask my bf to do somthin for me thats not working, he will do it the exact same way and all will be well, its summert to do with energy in ur body, my mum taught me this grounding thing to ground my energy to help prevent the technology issues but i never do it, she also made me a hemotite (cant spell it) braclet and watch to wear, when i did wear them the got super hot to the point ide take them off, now i dont wear them.

    i went a lil off topic then, but you get me, there is other energies that when honed in on we can uttalise to our advatage, you just got to tune in.

    but sometimes it is just plain fear, dread or stress. its confusing to understand which is influencing your dreams, but alot the time it can be just fear or stress, learn to relax and take things as they come and ull see things better.

    I'm with you both on this one. I call it the 'Twighlight Zone Effect' (Definitley cue the eerie music..."doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo"...). I've had plenty of occasions when I have either dreamed about something that hasn't happened yet, and then something like it does, or I get funny feelings around people, who turn out to be flakes or whatever..

    However as you rightly say, sometimes we can pick up a bug!
