Scenes from my Dreams

Notes: I slept like crap last night, so I'm sort of surprised I remember as much as I do about this one. Foods Eaten: Eggplant Parmesan Dream Location: In an apartment building The Dream: I was outside, next to a vertically large building. There was a staircase leading up the side, which I quickly ran up. I was in a bit of a hurried panic. I don't remember how I actually got inside, but I do remember running to a corner of the first room I entered. It was an apartment building, and I don't know who it belonged to. I decided to walk around the other rooms and scout what I was dealing with... As I walked around, I noticed a bunch of windows. It was dark out, and there were no lights on inside, but I felt compelled to shut the blinds for further protection. As I was quickly running around the rooms closing every blind, I noticed a small red laser dot on the floor. I immediately assumed there was someone trying to aim at me with a gun, so I rushed through the rest of ...

Notes: Sporadic memory. Foods Eaten: Taco Salad Dream Location: Field, Shed... The Dream: I was standing under a shed in the middle of a vacant field. There was an area to the back with a desk/podium thing. A lady was standing behind it, checking passports or some such, as if we were at an airport. I walked over to her and handed her something, I'm not sure what. Moments later, my dad showed up and walked over to myself and the lady. I'm not sure if he said anything to her, but she told him to, "Go over there (pointing) , flip the gray switch, flip the white switch up, and then pull on the black switch." My dad went to the area she pointed and followed her instructions. Upon completion, a flood of lights in the room came on... (Not sure if this was a completely different dream or a transition or what...) I was in my 350z, with TJ in the passenger seat. We were trying to get somewhere, but I had taken a wrong turn. I suddenly realized that we were in a fiel...

Notes: A bit of randomness in this one! Glad I'm starting to remember my dreams better again, and also intrigued with the indirect magic I seem to be incorporating in my dreams lately! Foods Eaten: Cheeze-its! Dream Location: Haunted-ish Forest of Some Sort? The Dream: My recollection starts at being on a path or deserted road in a sort of gloomy forest. It wasn't night out, but it seemed very dull, not full of life like you would expect a forest to be. The trees were all brown, not a peak of green anywhere. TJ was with me, and we were walking down the path up a small hill. We got to the top and the path split. There was a weathered old sign with city names etched into it pointing in each different direction, but I felt deja vu and instinctively said we needed to go down the path to the right. We walked down it and passed some cars parked off the side of the path on top of a pile of dead leaves. One of the cars was distinctively a cream colored convertible VW bug. I jum...

Notes: I slept like a rock last night, was abnormally tired. I know I had another dream aside from this one that was about school or going to class or something, but the only detail I remember was looking at my class schedule, so not worth writing much else about it down... Foods Eaten: Steak and potato Dream Location: My Kitchen The Dream: I was in the kitchen of my house, I'm pretty sure I had just recently walked in there. My mom was there, and I'm pretty sure TJ was also with me. My mom asked me to carry something out to our garbage bins in the garage, not sure what it was, but when I grabbed it, I also picked up a chocolate chip muffin. I walked out to the garage and opened up the garbage can, throwing whatever it was in there. When I went to close the lid of the garbage can, it swiped the side of my muffin, and I remember being disgusted and wondering how many nasty things had been in the garbage can. I picked off the side of the muffin that hit the trash can and...

Notes: I actually had this one a couple days ago, but I just now had the (re)memory of it. Dream Location: Half on a cruise ship and half driving through Kentucky... The Dream: I was on the top deck of a cruise ship. There were some other people with me, but I don't recall who. I only vaguely remember running down three flights of stairs with these people... Transition... I'm now inside of my car, in the passenger seat. TJ is driving, I asked him, "How far away from Kentucky are we?" He responded with, "Not very, we can take a detour if you want." I don't think I responded, but moments later we ended up in Kentucky. We turned down a seemingly deserted road, surrounded by autumn trees. I noticed my sisters best friend, Sam, walk through a path in the distance. I pointed her out to TJ, who drove towards her. She saw us, and came over to the car. I rolled my window down to talk to her. She asked if we wanted to go inside, then pointed to an apartme...

Notes: I had this one a few days ago, so my memory has gotten unfortunately foggy on it. Dream Location: In my "room" though it was actually a house or apartment. The Dream: I was laying in my bed, but it was in a very modern looking room. Probably an apartment that belonged to me. I was sandwiched between to guys, one of them was an old friend, Cameron. The other one, I don't remember or didn't recognize. Nothing affectionate or naughty was going on, we were just laying in my bed chatting. After a few moments, I removed myself from the bed and walked into another room, which looked exactly like my old bedroom at my parent's house. The carpet was the same bluish green and the ceiling walls were slanted. I recall my sister's long deceased cat, Shadow being there, as well as my cat, Cinnamon, though I don't remember what sort of interaction went on with them. I also seem to distinctly recall sitting down at a vanity in the room.

Notes: Side affects of watching a lot of Top Gear... Unfortunately I don't remember most of the dream. Foods Eaten: Philly Cheese Steak Dream Location: Not Sure The Dream: I was sitting in the front row of a seated concert hall with TJ. We were watching Top Gear, except Top Gear was a band, not a TV show. Though it did feature all the members of Top Gear as the band members. I remember TJ called something out to Jeremy Clarkson, who was playing the guitar, though I don't remember what he said.

Notes: I think this may have been what I actually "woke up" to from the previous dream entry... Foods Eaten: Fettuccine Alfredo Dream Location: My Room The Dream: I was laying in my bed, flat on my back, desperately attempting to fall back asleep. A guy that I have seen around my office building, though I don't know his name, walked in my room to a corner. Apparently there was a girl already there, who said hello to him and asked how he was. He responded in a way that made him sound almost mentally challenged, talking about how his night went. Somehow their conversation evolved into talking about how their CDs were going, and I figured out that they were both small local artists trying to make it. The girl said she had just released her EP, and she started to play it. I actually remember thinking, "Wow, this girl actually has a good voice." But I was highly annoyed that I could not fall back asleep because they were playing the music far too loud and t...

Notes: Very active dream night. Foods Eaten: Fettuccine Alfredo Dream Location: Some fictional setting The Dream: I was around a swimming pool. I can vividly remember how it was set up, like a swimming pool in the middle of an amphitheater. There were three levels of huge "steps" that went up, the first two were underwater and the top one was open to air. The first two levels were surrounded by some sort of cage, too. There were people in the pool, with large games set up. I don't know who the people were, and I don't know what the games were. I do remember I was standing on the top level (outside of the water) , when I watched someone very slowly managed to pour GALLONS of water onto the third level. Even though I watched it, I wasn't able to move or prepare for the massive wave that hit me, causing me to go underwater a few times. Eventually I ended up in the regular level of the swimming pool. The games were no longer there, like the addition of wa...

Notes: I'm simply going to write this entry as notes, because I either a) can't remember what was going on or b) just fell straight into a lucid dream without having a regular dream first. In either case, I was definitely lucid in two instances last night. I was standing, or perhaps floating, in endless pits of darkness. I could hear my thoughts, and I was consciously able to tell myself to move body parts, but no matter how hard I tried to summon up visual images, they would not come. I think in the second instance, my mind got distracted and I lost lucidity. In the first dream, I'm not sure what caused me to lose it. Foods Eaten:  Fettuccine Alfredo

Notes: This is really bothering me because I can't remember my web designer teacher's name for the life of me. Foods Eaten: Eggplant Parm Dream Location: Somewhere tropical The Dream: I was walking around a very decorative looking fountain/palm tree area. It was bright out, there were stepping stones all over the ground. It was a beautiful location, obviously tropical or Caribbean. While I was standing at the fountain, I absentmindedly pulled out my cell phone and checked my facebook (I find it sad that I actually did this in my dream...) . I started scrolling down the list of recent news and noticed that my web design teacher from 9th grade (who's name I can't remember and I'm not even friends with on facebook) had posted on my wall. It read something like "You haven't designed my web page for me yet! I tried calling you but you haven't responded!" As soon as I read it, I put my phone away, and set on a search for the teacher... who conve...

Notes: I woke up and remembered this one really well, went back to sleep, forgot 90% of it... Gotta hate when that happens. Foods Eaten: Steak Dream Location: Basement The Dream: I walked down a dark flight of stairs into a disheveled room. There was a vacated bar to the left, complete with bar stools and cobwebs. I remember walking around the room with TJ, and for some reason I remember walking into a bathroom and taking a shower. When I came out of the bathroom, I saw a small spider in the room and freaked out. I ran out of the room, grabbed TJ and ran out of the room. I know there was more to this dream, I just can't remember it...

Notes: This one is sort of vague. Foods Eaten: Sushi Dream Location: House... somewhere? The Dream: I recall being inside a large mansion, with a guy. I was dressed up, wearing a short and ruffled white dress. I don't know who the guy was or what we were doing. There was another girl there, and seemed like she may have been foreign, not understanding what was going on. She was also dressed up, though in a more reserved white dress than mine. A bunch of people suddenly came into the house, and the guy I was with panicked, saying we needed to hide the other girl. He told me to take her up to "the room." I quickly grabbed her and lead her through a door, then up a flight of stairs into a small attic-like room. There was another door that went deeper into the attic, so I decided to be extra cautious and take her into that room. It was dark, with no windows, but I easily found a string hanging from a ceiling light. I tugged on it to turn it on, it was dim, but just...

Notes: Been in the airport too long. Dream Location: Airport, random pool The Dream: I was in an airport sitting next to TJ. It was overcrowded, and we were surrounded by the usual hundreds of people waiting for a plane. A well dressed girl with blonde hair showed up, and everyone except myself, TJ, and the row of people I was in, stood up as if she was some important head figure. She didn't seem to mind that we had completely overlooked/ignored her presence. She sat down in the row of chairs in front of us, and proceeded to briefly talk to us. There was some sort of transition, and I ended up in an outdoor pool with TJ. It was bright out, presumably midsummer. The pool had a combined water slide and diving board, but both were extraordinarily high off the ground. TJ and I briefly argued about him wanting to go down it, I bitched out, saying that I can tolerate some water slides, but that one was just way too high for my liking. I explained that it's sort of like roller ...

Notes: While on the cruise ship I went on last week, I met a group of guys from Czech Republic. I don't remember most of their names, except one guy, Martin... this dream ensued. Foods Eaten: I think this was the lobster night? Dream Location: In my cabin on the cruise The Dream: I was laying on my singled bed in the cabin I was sharing with my mom on the cruise we went on together. Someone I had just met that day, Martin, was sitting on the bed with me. I asked him how to pronounce his name in Czech, because I had heard all of his friends calling him what sounded like "Marteeeen" to me. So he kept saying his name with the accent, and I would repeat, though I recall feeling embarrassed and stupid every time.

Notes: Backlog of dreams I wrote down while I was on the cruise... Dream Location: Unfamiliar house The Dream: I was standing on a wooden deck of a house. My cousin Chris walked past me, informing me that there was some sort emergency going on - a corpse had just been discovered in the backyard. There were a bunch of people there examining the "crime" scene. My phone rang, and I answered it. It was a girl, who was rude, and did not even bother to say hello. She simply said, "I know who you are." I proceeded to inform her that she was wrong, and she did not know me. She went on to say, "I know your last boyfriend was Jarrett." By this point, I was extremely confused, as I have never dated anyone named Jarrett. I replied with, "Um, no it wasn't." She continued to rant on about a story of Jarrett and how I had stolen him from her friend. As she continued talking, she actually materialized in front of me, rather than just being over the ...

Notes: Cruise backlog. Dream Location: I guess my old friend, Tana's house. The Dream: I was driving my 350z around, seemingly aimlessly, but I eventually ended up at my old friend, Tana's house. Her driveway somehow wrapped around her house (which actually looked nothing like her house), but it turned into another street running parallel to the one she lived off of. Unfortunately, the driveway was in terrible condition, and I decided to pull my Z off of it and into the grass on the side instead for safety. Apparently, I was bringing an unfinished puzzle to Tana. The puzzle had a picture of a mother and daughter painted on the left side of it. When I got in her house, Tana's mother had just handed her a present. Tana opened it, revealing a poster with the same mother and daughter pictured on it. She adored the poster, giving me a quick spiel on why it had so much meaning to her, though I don't recall what the reasoning was. I told her, "Well that's cool...

Notes: Backlog of cruise dreams. Dream Location: My driveway The Dream: I was in our driveway in the driver's seat of our Prius. My dad was sitting with me in the passengers seat. It was clearly not good driving conditions, our street was covered in snow and ice. I managed to get the car out of the driveway and onto our street, but discovered that whenever I ran over what looked like ice, it would break and turn into a puddle of water. For some reason, I kept speeding up and driving very incautiously, given the conditions. My dad expressed extreme annoyance, though I just kept repeating the action.
