Scenes from my Dreams

Notes: Not feeling great, took a random afternoon nap... The Dream: (I'm pretty sure the beginning had to do with a conversation at my boyfriend's parent's house last night... his dad wanted us to check on his sister because she hadn't replied to any texts that day.)  I don't know where I was to start, but I had my phone in my hand. I just received a text from Trevor's dad asking us to check in on his sister Sandy. I had this terrible feeling in my gut, like something was really wrong, so I did a quick Facebook look up and saw people were commenting things like heart emoji's and "We'll miss you," on her profile photo. I decided I needed to go check on her. Although I don't know how I got there, I ended up walking down a long gravel road, clearly in the middle of nowhere and surrounded by forest. I could see a small little house through the woods in the distance that resembled Sandy's house, but something got jumbled along the way. ...

Notes: I feel like I've been having some intensely long, random dreams recently. It's kind of weird. Especially given that I'm remembering them so well. The Dream:  I was in a large room, with numerous other unidentified people around. We were about to start some sort of game. I seemed to understand what I was doing in dream state, but now that I'm awake I have no idea what the rules or objective were - I can only assume it was akin to a scavenger hunt. I headed out of the room, which lead directly onto an outdoor cement sidewalk. It seemed like it was on a college campus. I followed the sidewalk, which lead down a slight hill into an area heavily shaded by large trees. I continued following the path, until I was lead right into a house. I automatically knew my way around the house (though I cannot relate to it in waking world) . My sister and mother were there, and acting strange. They very vaguely told me I needed to help them dispose of something. They climbed ...

Notes:  Glad my dream recollection seems to be quickly kicking back into gear now that I'm focusing on it again. This one really seemed to lack plot. Foods Eaten: Taco Casserole The Dream: I'm standing on a paved road, headed towards a house that is built into the side of a hill. I know this house belongs to an old friend, Tana. This is all I seem to recall about this portion of the dream... I've ended up headed down a longer paved road - it's kind of dark out and surrounded by forest. The road slopes steeply downward, and when I get to the bottom there is a large hill with a tall house built on top. Subconsciously, I know that this house belongs to my family and that we had just moved in. Again, this doesn't seem to have any further significance to the overall dream... Now I'm in a small room, set up to hold an audience for a performance. I take a seat in a fold out chair near the back of the room. The lighting in the room dims, but a few more people c...

Notes: Really odd one this morning... I was definitely in the middle of some deep REM sleep when the alarm clock went off. I still haven't shook off the grogginess. Foods Eaten: Chicken Parm Dream Location: Unsure The Dream: I know there was some sort of prelude to this, I had witnessed (or possibly participated in) the killing of someone (unsure who). I fled the scene with a few others who were there, but ended up with a handful of other people that had not been at the killing. My dad was driving our Jeep, I'm pretty sure Melissa and TJ were also in the car, though we had just arrived at a location I'm not sure how to explain. It was a light wood platform with stores connected to it. There was an octagonal shaped picnic table that we walked over to sit down at. As I approached the table, I noticed odd indentations in the shape of bottle caps. Within each indentation was a coin. I said out loud, "Hey, look at the tables." But everyone else was already takin...

Notes: Well, I guess this is since I just bought a house and was having my first vacation away from home since then. Thought it was strange. Dream Location: In a twisted version of my house. The Dream: I was standing upstairs in a house that belonged to me. The area I was standing on was carpeted, sort of loft-like, overlooking the bottom floor. There was a set of stairs near me. (Once again, this is all I left myself saved as a draft, so I've forgotten most of this dream...) I seem to recall various people showing up at my house, which was going well for a little while, until everyone seemed turned against me. I remember the house suddenly feeling eerie, as a large black creature came out of no where and attacked me. Fortunately I was able to escape, but as I was running down the stairs, a vampire-zombie creature knocked me to the ground. The thing was on the verge of biting my throat when I abruptly woke up.

Notes:  Going to have to attribute this one to having dinner with TJ and his parents and half the discussion revolving around pranks involving fireworks... Even though it seems mean, the entire dream had a very playful and fun nature to it. Foods Eaten: Eggplant Parm Dream Location: A road and then in a field... The Dream: I was in motion going down a one way asphalt road, I don't know if I was in a car or running or what. I saw my dog running down the road ahead of me, and I was chasing after him. He veered off the road onto a sidewalk in front of some old town shops. I know for sure I was running on foot at this point, jumping over plants and various extrusions in the sidewalk. My dog approached a busy corner at full speed, and ran straight across the road with no regard for the cars around. He ran into the outside patio area of a McDonalds, and I was cursing under my breath at the dog for not listening to me. There was a line of small hedges surrounding the pati...

Notes: This was definitely one of my more humorous dreams as of late. I laughed a little bit when I woke up from it, but yet another night where I had multiple dreams after a few days of none. Foods Eaten: Greek Salad Dream Location: Department Store... sort of The Dream: I had just walked into a large building, with white walls and tiled floors. TJ was with me, we were casually walking along, holding hands. On each side of us were platforms, which I guess were supposed to be like stores. They had signs hanging from the ceiling labeling what each platform was for. We passed one that said "Frame Sale" over it, and I pointed it out to TJ explaining that my company must be having their monthly frame sale. The next platform was labeled "Clearance Dresses". This one, of course caught my eye, and I had to go browse. Getting on to the platform, it turned into more of an enclosed store. The entry way was nothing but a flight of steps, which we walked up. There were...

Notes: I must have went in to REM sleep quick last night, because I woke up at 1:00am thanks to a stomach ache and remembered this whole thing. Amazingly, I still remember it the actual morning after. Foods Eaten: Tuna Cerviche Salad Dream Location:  On a highway? The Dream: TJ was driving my 350z, I was in the passenger seat. We were on a highway, though not one I recognized. There weren't many cars out, and it was broad daylight. Suddenly, one of the few cars in front of us slammed on the brakes. TJ did the same, angry about the seemingly unexplained breaking - until I looked out the window and saw a severed arm laying in the middle of one of the lanes. I gasped and did a double take, while pointing it out to TJ. We both cringed, thinking about what kind of accident had to have happened for that, but tried not to stare too long, as there were no other cars fully stopped. There wasn't even police or an ambulance anywhere in sight. Continuing down the road a few miles, we we...

Notes: I typed in the title of this entry and realized that I'd already named another dream entry the same thing. I thought that was kind of weird. I had forgotten about the other dream, but when I read it, it was perplexing how similar it was. Foods Eaten: Steak Dream Location: Some version of my buddy Landon's house The Dream: I was inside of a small house - or seemed more like a room in an apartment complex. It was old, wood panel walls, old lady wall paper, very neutral tan/brown color scheme. My friend, Landon's, mom was there, and I believe his sister was as well. My sister was also with me, though we were being sort of skittish. There was a red laser dot following us around, and I had come in the house to hide from it. Landon's mom was chit chatting us a little bit, when I saw the red dot and panicked again. I looked around accessing all the windows we could be seen through and tried to devise a way to crawl across the ceiling in order to avoid possibly ...

Notes: ... Dream Location: My Front Yard The Dream: I don't recall much of this dream... I know I was in my front yard, and my dad was with me. There were bombs/explosives being dropped from the sky all around us, and when I looked up, there were hundreds of red UFOs. I knew I needed to head for cover, so I ran to our porch to go take cover in my house. As I turned the handle to go inside, I discovered the door was locked. I had my purse on me, which I started to dig through for my keys. As I was digging through it, another bomb exploded close to the porch. Somehow I came to the semi-realization that I must be dreaming, though I didn't seem to be fully in control. I just remember knowing that all I needed to do was get inside my house and I would be safe and the dream would end. As far as I know, I finally got in my house and that's exactly what happened.

Notes: This one was the most vivid I've had in quite a while. I've forgotten some of the details already though, unfortunately. Dream Location: Around Charlotte, NC The Dream: I had just entered a large and classic style building with my coworker, John. The building seemed rather upscale and hotel-like, except there was a very classy Subway Restaurant inside of it. Apparently John and I were grabbing a bite to eat together for lunch. I remember ordering some food, a Turkey Sub, I think. And when I went to pay for it, the cashier seemed very secretive and on-a-mission like. He had a somewhat evil grin on his face, and he told me something important, though I don't know what it was he said. I promptly got up to leave, I don't recall whether I ate my sandwich or not. Right as I was about to walk out of the doors, I noticed TJ leaning on the right wall and almost glaring at me. He called me over and began a serious questioning of me, asking why I was getting lunch w...

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: Not sure what provoked this. I had watched "The Notebook" right before, seems sort of opposite end of the spectrum. Foods Eaten: Orange Chicken Dream Location: Random Building The Dream: I am walking through a long building, seems like it could be a corridor of a high school maybe. Mulder and Scully from the X-Files are with me, but we aren't really talking about anything. We got to the end of the corridor and there was a set of doors leading to a small patio and a case of stairs leading downwards to a field. We started walking down them, when suddenly a bomb came straight at us. It exploded, crippling the building and sending Scully and Mulder flying. I also went flying, but landed gracefully on my feet. Scully didn't take long to recover either, but we both panicked when we didn't see Mulder anywhere. We searched the rubble of the building and eventually found him covered, but still alive... Thank you alarm clock...

Notes: Finally had an excessively vivid and detailed dream. Foods Eaten: Eggnog Dream Location: It was at a sort of strip mall, outside. Lots of stores. The thing that seemed most out of place in hindsight was that there was a stadium attached to the strip mall... with a regular sort of store entrance. The Dream: I was at CVS with my dad. I'm not totally sure why I was there, but I knew my dad was dropping me of at a UNC basketball game after we left. I also knew that the stadium where the basketball game was at was right next to the CVS. My dad asked me if I was ready to go, I told him to hold on a second. I was walking through the aisles until I got to the back of the store and noticed that they had a relatively nice looking buffet bar. There was tons of food, but I was suddenly looking specifically for yogurt, which was conveniently lined against the back of the buffet. I picked up a cup of cherry flavor, and promptly told my dad I was ready. When we left the store, m...

Notes: I <3 x-files. I <3 Sons of Anarchy. Apparently when you watch too many of both in one day, this is what you get. Also, I wasn't actually in this dream at all... just watching it like it was a TV show. Foods Eaten: Don't Remember Dream Location: Scattered... A body of water, a house with rooms similar to mine The Dream: A boy and girl are standing on a dock, next to a large river. The water is flowing quickly, and the dock is wet, as if it had just rained a large amount. There is a contained stairwell at the right of the dock, the girl walks up to it and falls into it. She screams. Fast forward. Agent Scully and Agent Mulder show up, they are scouting the dock. The girl's body is found at the far back edge of the dock, she is covered in blood, beaten to death. There is no sign of the boy. Transition. Agent Scully has just walked inside a house. The front door of the house is exquisite, two stories tall, windows surrounding it. There is another guy wi...

Notes: Unfortunately, I'm transposing this dream a few days after I had it, and I'm not recalling as much of it as I know happened. After writing this down, it also made a lot more sense in my head. Foods Eaten: Don't Remember Dream Location: My bedroom, Somewhere "Wild-West"ish The Dream: I was in my bedroom, everything was pretty much how it actually is. However, there was a voice telling me that I needed to prepare for war. I somehow knew that each object of furniture in my room, represented a different "country" that was "going to war". My desk was the east side, my bookshelf was the north, and my dresser was the west. I prepared myself for the "war" by cleaning up all objects in my room, putting everything away, even making the bed. I heard a noise outside my window, and looked out to see my sister in the driveway. I told her to come to my room, we were going to war. She got to my room, but still no one was there. The ...

Notes: I woke up and only recalled a small portion of this dream at first, but I kept asking myself why that particular thing happened in my dream, and managed to recall a good majority of it. I'm pretty excited, because it's been a really really long time since I can recall flying in a dream. Foods Eaten: Cheesey biscuits, Coconut Shrimp Dream Location: My Aunt Sue's house The Dream: I was in a bedroom, there were two twin beds in the room - my sister was half asleep in one of them. There was a dresser on another wall in the room, I was digging around through it, trying to find a particular shirt. I remember I was looking for a Five Finger Death Punch shirt. I guess the noise I was making fully woke my sister up, and I asked her if she wanted to go to a Five Finger Death Punch concert with me. She asked what time. I don't remember what I told her, but she ended up agreeing to go. The next thing I know, I'm in a very large bathroom. I don't recall see...

Notes: I could hear ticking and bombs blowing up as a constant through out this dream. I slept straight through the alarm clock going off this morning, my boyfriend kept hitting snooze, and I think the bombs may have been associated with the alarm clock. I'm not sure what was up with the random comment about the Buffalo swimming pool... I know it was reference to a pool in Buffalo, New York... but I've only been there maybe once or twice. The statement in the dream triggered the very vague memory of being there when I woke up. Foods Eaten: Garlic Crescent Rolls Dream Location: My House The Dream: I was in the basement of my house, in my mom's home office. It seemed weird... old, maybe like what it would look like in a hundred years from now. My dad was sitting at my mom's desk, frantically shoving papers in drawers. I asked what he was doing, but he mostly ignored me, just muttering "Shit, shit, I've got to hide the papers. They're going to destro...
