Feels like what? Since i've never 'felt' what its like to be 
anything other than conscious, its hard to say it has a feeling
attached to it. 

Perhaps individuals who have been in degraded states of consciousness
(like brain damage, anathesia, etc) would better appreciate the feeling
of consciousness. All I know is conscious and not.
