When you say your ears are burning, that comes from a very old idea that people might be talking about you. There is even more to it. In the past they believed an angel would make your right ear burn to give you joy if people were talking well about you. On the other hand, in the case your left ear was touched by an angel causing it a burning sensation, someone might be speaking ill of you. You do not have to believe in that theory literally. Face it as an expression you use when you feel like there are people talking about you.
For example, you see people gathered together at the corner of your classroom sending you evil looks while talking quietly to each other. So you say: My ears are burning. I wonder what they are saying about me. That's all for now. Bye bye!
