This is an example with one simple word that has done something for me what I call "pinpoint location". This simple word "nadir", was discovered upon me on my literature terms while I was studying for AP Language and Composition. Out of the two hundred and something odd words one stuck out at me and it was nadir. Defined as the lowest point. In my dreams, for 2 weeks almost, it stuck in my head, then we took the test, after the test, though, the word still floated around in my head. Today in class we were watching a historic piece of the titanic. While watching the film, a ship in the movie was called nadir... And I remember them talking about the lowest point of the dark and all that other stuff. So, I keep on seeing nadir... And connecting the pieces... Being dark, lowest point and such.
So, later this morning I get flashes in my head and I see lamps and streets and stuff. Then I get a street sign that says Nadir with numbers after it. I was thinking earlier about my turkish/romanian friend that I had missed. So, when I talked to him I noticed that, indeed, I pinpointed his exact location of where he was in Turkey on a street called Nadir. I knew this word was lurking in the back of my mind because I was thinking about him, and so he couldn't come to me like a lot of my people I accidentally make do. Because in all truth, I don't know how to really control all of my subconscious. I was able to see him through connecting the past weeks together through one word... nadir. The lowest point, really made me happy even though that sounds ironic.

I can't believe it. Its unbelievable that you can tap into the old words of the speech. That's really fascinating. I wish I could do that again like I did as a kid.
