Here are some possible responses from the student:
- No, I can't say I've had any experiences that others found hard to believe. My life has generally followed a normal course of events.
- There was one time when I dreamed about an event before it happened, but it was just a coincidence and not really unbelievable.
- I once thought I saw a UFO in the sky late one night, but it was probably just a plane or something mundane. No one else was there to verify what I saw.
- As a kid, I remember having very vivid imaginary friends. Maybe that seemed unusual to others at the time. But I outgrew that phase as most children do.
