I feel everything.
Every breath.
Every temperature change.
Every time someone walks by my desk in school and the room slightly shakes.
Every time someone in the desk next to me taps their fingers.
I can literally feel the vibrations in the air from someone tapping their fingers on a desk.
So one can imagine what it feels like to get hit in the face with a dodgeball. (yes this actually happened today)
I not only feel everything to the point where I can't go down steps because I can feel the effects of gravity trying to make me plummet to my death.(I'm being slightly sarcastic here)
But I also hear everything.
Every breath.
Every step.
Every time that person next to me swallows.
I can sometimes tell if someone is hungry because I can hear their stomach growling.
And not only do I feel everything and hear everything down to the person on the other side of the room tapping their pencil lightly against the desk.
But I also taste everything.
I can taste individual ingredients in things.
That should tell you why I'm a somewhat picky eater.
But the main point here is.
I feel everything.
Hear everything.
Taste everything.
And my life experiences are just heaps of everything.
