Could This Just Be Coincidence?

I don't know whether I'm just being silly or whether there really could be something more to me than I know of, but I've had a few really weird experiences over the past few years.

It started when I was about six I suppose; I was a bit of a loner until then and was always the kid who was left to play by herself in the corner. Anyway I had a dream one night and I saw myself playing with a girl of mixed race (or whatever term is politically correct nowadays) and I heard myself call her 'Yashna.' I'd never heard this name before because at the time I didn't really have any friends and I didn't know anybody with different cultural backgrounds to mine. I woke up thinking it was a little bit weird that I had seemingly made up a friend but didn't think any more of it, went to school and then halfway through first lesson a new girl joined our class whose name was Yashna, and who ever since was my best friend.

Then a couple of years later I had a dream that I was in a maths lesson and my teacher asked me and my friend to take a note to another teacher. We did so and when we got outside my friend read the note and unknown to us, our teacher saw us. We didn't find the room because we were only in our first year at school so went back to the classroom and handed the note back to our teacher, who immediately shouted at us for reading the note. A few weeks later having forgotten about the dream completely, I went into maths and the same thing happened as before - the day's events occurred exactly as they had in my dream.

The next experiences are a bit more serious. I was walking home from the bus stop one day and my father drove past saying he was going to pick my mother up from work, and to get in the car because I had a guitar on my back and a heavy bag. Anyway we picked my mum up and went back but saw that an elderly man had fallen over. We pulled over to help him but as my dad was slowing the car to stop, it was almost as if someone had read my mind and said what I was thinking before I was conscious of it, and I suddenly thought 'We're going to crash.' I stayed calm and dismissed it because there were no other cars around but then a lady came out of nowhere and smashed into the back of our car. I screamed (it was the first and hopefully last car crash I was involved in) but then the 'voice' that told me we were going to crash (I know it doesn't really make sense but this is the best way I can put it) told me not to scream, so I stopped.

This next one is a really horrid story but one I feel I must tell someone because it is a big event that could be significant. My mother works with a lady who had found out she was pregnant a while before telling anyone but hadn't said anything to the people she worked with in case something went wrong. My mum told me she was pregnant and was talking about her for a while, I was happy for her too because she's a lovely lady and would be a great mum. Anyway I was alone in my bedroom at the time and again it was as if someone had read what I was thinking and said it out loud before I was conscious I was thinking it; I had the sudden thought that '_____ is going to lose her baby.' I scolded myself for thinking something so horrible but I also noticed that it was the same as what had happened when that crazy lady wrote our car off, so began to think on it more, hoping against hope that this lady's baby would be okay. I was at home the next day, my mum was in the kitchen and the phone rang. It was another lady she worked with asking to speak to her, and when she put the phone down she told me that the pregnant lady had been for her routine scan at quite an advanced stage and they couldn't find a heartbeat - she'd lost her baby.

I've also had a few more strange goings on but nothing so specific as the stuff I've already mentioned; I can sometimes tell exactly what someone is going to say or even if I've never met them, I can always tell what they're going to be like and often take an instant like or dislike to somebody and feel uneasy if I don't. Also I've had a few items of jewelry (a Celtic cross pendant and a pair of pentacle/pentagram earrings; I'm not sure which word is supposedly associated with devil worship so I'll just say it's not the evil sign! Both items are real silver, I'm not sure what difference this might make but if it's useful information it's there) that I get an incredibly strong urge to wear if I'm not wearing them, and often feel frightened and uneasy when I'm not wearing it. I also get very strong feelings of deja vu mostly in historical places or countryside, and am attracted to certain characters throughout history, most of them quite significant and find myself very defensive of these people.

I would really like to know what's going on - do I have some kind of ability or am I just a really good judge of character and some kind of oddball who dreams things before they happen? (No offence meant by that last remark, I just would like to know if I'm 'weird' or not!)
