Common Sense

Me: You know how you get that feeling when someone's looking at you... what is that? Is there a word for that feeling? How does that work?
JJ: Senses, Liu!

I felt that his response was so ridiculous, yet I felt mildly stupid.

I find it amazing how our brain works, processes all of our senses simultaneously. Sometimes, I like to isolate my senses - try to focus only on one sense. I took a walk during my lunch break and centered all of my energy on discerning scents. The city's scent is a grimy concoction - a mix of smog, newly installed carpet, fried foods, cigarette smoke and potent floral perfume.
