Default Don't know if this was telepathy...

When I was about 15, I was at home alone with my older sister. Our parents were paying the neighbors a visit and we were supposed to be doing our homework.
Instead we decided to play a game.
One of us would concentrate very hard on a word (it had to be an item). The other one would try to guess what it was.
When it was my turn to guess, the first thing that came to mind was "spoon". So I said it out loud. My sister ran to the neighbors, I freaked her out because apparently I got it right.
She still gets spooked by it now (15 years later...) I just found and still find it mildly amusing.

At that time we were pretty close.

Lately we have been growing apart quite a bit. But maybe not as far as I sometimes think... A few months ago, we were playing a game with a few mutual friends. We were paired up in teams of 2. My sister and I together. One of us would have to draw something, the other one would have to guess what it was.
The other teams had a very hard time keeping up with our scores. My sister would only have to draw a squiggly line and I would guess instantly she was trying to draw an elephant. And vice versa. The other players even started to wonder if we were cheating in any way...
I don't know if any of this has anything to do with telepathy. Maybe my sister and I are just thinking along the same lines more than we realize.
