Déjà You by Alek van Arki

my deja vu was unintentional but i am the cause.
i was sitting on the bench in front of my school, as i occasionally do on wednesdays and thursdays. i am rarely in the same place on those days; the week before last, i was at kyle's house; that thursday i got to school about 45 minutes later than usual; last thursday i was standing in front of the office. but last week, i was sitting on the bench on wednesday, wearing my multi-colored goofy shirt. so today, my friend thom and his girlfriend, my other friend, megan,, walked up to me, on the bench, again, wearing my multi-colored goofy shirt. "hi ale--DEJA VU, ALEK!," thom said when he saw me in the same place in the same attire as last week. "you were wearing that same shirt and sitting in the same place last wednesday!"
now this is also not a spectacular completion of the task (as my last one wasn't), getting someone to have a particular response on purpose is near-impossible. especially one that is as relatively uncommon as "deja vu." however, i have found that i seem to unintentionally be a deja vu magnet. so, this is where i am going to post any more deja vus that i illicit. my previous attempt is in the image below but i don't feel it is really worthy of being written about. but it's there if anyone's interested. oh, and i don't have any pictures or other proof other than my above description because, honestly, it caught me off guard as much as it did thom.
