College Life

December 30, 2010

I dreamed that for some reason I was going to Brown University, despite the fact that I had not graduated high-school. My parents hadn't really informed me of this plan ahead of time. Rather, they had told me we were visting my brother, N, who currently goes to Brown. I packed lightly, and when we got there, I felt rather small and young. My parents led me to my brother's dorm, and I met some of his friends and stuff. Then I went into a different room, just to see what it looked like, when my parent's informed me I was going to school there as well. Confused, I put down my stuff and looked around.
My dream shifted, and I had been there for a little while. I still didn't have a roommate, and I was confused as to where all my classes were. I went across the hall, where my brother's dorm room was, and asked him to take me places. He was annoyed that I didn't know my way around the place, and requested that I find a new guide as soon as possible. Annoyed, I called my parents, explaining the problem. We decided that the best plan was for them to come back and then give me rides to my classes until I learned my way around. Just as I was getting used to this idea, my roommate walked in. She was strangely enthusiastic, but she told me some various rules that she wanted us to follow. I immediately agreed, though I forgot most of them immediately.
A little stressed about my strange "college life", I decided to go swimming with my family. We somehow were altogether, and were walking out on some balcony. For some reason it was night, and we couldn't see the bottom of the ocean/water that we were trying to dive into. Discouraged, we decided to go swimming another day.
Returning home from our trip, I decided to take a shower and try out the dorm bathrooms. Mysteriously, it was both Christmas, New Years, and Halloween. People were finding dead bodies, covering them in blood and ketchup, and laying them out under trees. It was supposed to be the preparation for some sort of Halloween tag game. A little creeped out, I took my shower and headed back to my room, only to discover a random person lying on the ground next to the window, apparently hiding. When they saw me, they jumped up and yelled "Party!" and then covered me in ketchup, I immediately ran to go take another shower.
I have a vague recollection that other people kept doing this to me, but I'm not sure how it was resolved.

Disobeying Instructions

December 22, 2010

I was at tech and walking through a meeting that my teacher was in. Wanting to get out without bothering the meeting too much, I asked my teacher (K) if a certain door that I saw to my left was the exit. She said that it was not, but that the area behind the door was rundown and dangeous. She then directed me to a different door.
When I got out of the room, I immediatly went to go find my friend M. I told her what K had said about the door and we planned how to get back there. We returned to the room I had come from, but everyone was gone. We went and opened the door that I had been instructed not to open, but it had changed from a normal door to a double door such as would open to a meeting room.
Inside, we were greeted with an enormous number of rows of bookshelves. Going up to each row were a variety of step stools and ladders. Running around through the isles, I discovered that the back of the room was quite a long way back. At the back was a carpeted area like a library with tons of craft items that I identified as belonging to a Sunday school group.
Looking back, I saw K looking sternly at the door to the room. I also saw that I had been followed in by many of my fellow classmates. They were being admonished for being in the room. Realizing how bad it would look if I returned to the front of the room, seeing as she had specifically told me not to go here, I searched for another route out. I saw a door at the back and opened it. Going through, I saw it opened into a swampy/muddy meadow. The meadow was surrounded by a small fence. Turning back towards the direction I had come, I saw houses and various buildings that seemed to be hidden from the public eye in every direction except the one from which I as viewing them.
Worried that my absense would be suspicious, I hopped the low fence and decided to go back to class. Sneaking along on the side of the houses, I again saw K looking stern. I immediatly fled back to the meadow, where I saw my brother, N, and my friend M. Telling them to turn around, we surveyed the various routes we could now take. We eventually got back to the theatre by going through a museum and ending up at the front of the theatre.
K was a bit confused why we appeared at the front of the theatre, but failing to have enough evidence to blame us for the large number of people in the forbidden room, she let us go.
N and I returned home, at which point we wandered into his room, which was mysteriously many stories up and overlooking the roof of MIT. Noticing a trap door on the roof, we decided to investigate, having learned nothing from our previous escapades. We dropped down into a small room. Various people wandered by, one of whom gave us a small tour.
The rest of the dream is fuzzy.

What's Up With my Trapdoor Obsession?

December 12, 2010

I was going upstairs to the booth for some play in a day, but some woman was following me, trying to find the bathroom. As I went up the stairs, the stairs split into two, and I told the women the bathroom was on the left most staircase, but it was very easy to take the wrong one. We continued up the stairs and I pointed out the bathroom, realizing I had never actually been inside. I decided to go in, because of curiosity, and I discovered a very strange room. I heard a small sound as though a door was being closed, and then I saw a trapdoor in the ceiling swing back and forth. Creeped out, I told the woman I was going to go investigate. I clambered up and discovered a small crawlspace area. It was too inconvienient to explore at that very moment, so I decided to crawl down. Just as I was about to, I noticed the passage connected to a trapdoor later on, and decided to find the other end.
I decided to go up the other staircase, and discovered a small removable part of the wall. I wanted to climb up and explore, but I was a bit too short. Eventually, with help from the women, I climbed up and discovered some various items that I had remembered having but couldn't remember where I put them. I decided it would be best to wait for my friends who i normally explored with, but as I was coming down I saw 3 guys on the step watching me. Though I only knew one of them, I told them what I was doing. They asked to come up, and since I didn't want to be rude, I let them. Soon, however, one of boys found a stash of props and tried to put them in a backpack to steal. I told him not to, and convinced his two friends to stop him. The boy picked up his friend, apparently named Calvin, threw him against a post and broke his neck. He then continued to steal things. The other boy, Simon (I don't know how I knew their names), and I were obviously worried by this. I started down the stairs to a balcony and started screaming for help. My mother, who was on stage, said "oh, that's heather's voice I hear", which made everyone on stage think I was joking. I looked up and saw Simon struggling with the other boy.
Then there was something where I went downstairs to find I had been given an acting role. Later, however, my friend came up to me and told me something about shadows, which related to my trapdoor experience and my acting role no longer being needed.
At this point, I woke up.

Dreamity Dream

December 8, 2010

I was chasing after my friend Melanie, but I'm not really sure where she was going. She ran across a field and I followed her, until she ran past a muddy fence, at which point I stopped. I had the feeling that she was playing a game and I was following, without being included. Thus, when I stopped at the gate, I saw her behind some bushes laughing with someone, and feeling excluded, hid behind a nearby tree.
There was also something about having the key to a door, and wanting to figure out what was behind the door. I unlocked a small gold lock and opened the door. I then found myself in a library. I talked to the librarian, who was my boyfriend apparently, and then wandered off. Some girls going by whispered about how my boyfriend was having an affair with a student, which was weird b/c he was a student. He went over to them, to disprove it or something, and suddenly they both discovered a dead body. The body was the "girl" with which he was having an affair.

I Need to get Back Into the Habit of Remembering my Dreams

November 28, 2010

I dreamed that I was underneath the school gym, in a small dusty area that had lots of boards. At one end of the tunnel was a dimly lit corridor, which seemed to house various doors and a lot of keys. The keys were on pegs, and rather out in the open, but there was a teacher constantly guarding them. I kept trying to sneak past the teacher and get the keys, but I kept being too cowardly. There was something about a gun being pointed at me, and perhaps some sort of chase scene, but I can't really remember what was going on.

Play in a Day

November 27, 2010

I was stage manager for Play in a Day, but nobody remembered, so my job was given away. I decided to rehang lights, but I didn't get very far. I came downstairs and then some lady on stage yelled "anyone up in the booth". I told her I was now downstairs and she looked at me for a moment and then said "that can be fixed". Later, when I had taken back my position as stage manager, we were standing on the stage watching one of the rehearsals, but everyone kept yelling at me for not giving standbys early enough.

Theatre Related Dreams

November 25, 2010

I was trying to help clean up the set after a production in the theatre, but I was mainly causing trouble. I tried to cut off various heavy beams that were above my head, but it didn't seem to do anything but hurt those below. I went outside and was explaining how ny schedule was going to be really exciting when I was a senior, but everyone ignored me.

Secret Passageways and Location Troubles

November 20, 2010
I was at Paly (my high school) and was going to help with the play. For some reason, the building was set up very oddly. Upstairs were the seats, but they first passed by the booth, which looked over the seats to the stage. The booth had a set of benches in it, and it was very spacious. One wall of the booth had a wooden door, which opened to several flights of stairs. I went into the booth, but realized that my brother was doing my job for some reason. I wandered back out and sat with my parents, but soon realized I didn't want to watch the show with everyone else. I went into the booth and through the wooden door with some girl who I recognized in the dream but I can not recognize now that I am awake. We went down 3 flights of stairs till we got to a dirty, thin, wooden passageway. I saw a rat go past my foot, which was mysteriously lacking a shoe. I continued through the passage, aware that I was not supposed to be there till I reached some stairs. I continued up them, with my mysterious friend behind me, until they ended. They opened up to a very large drop, which I failed to notice until I had already stepped off. I grabbed the wall and proceeded to awkwardly dangle. I saw a small ledge a few feet away and stretched out my foot to reach it, whilst simultaneously looking down. Below me was a table, which I hurriedly jumped on to, as well as some various desks.
Once down, I appeared to be inside the tower building of my high school (basically the office area, for those of you who are not my brother), though it had a small conference room to the side. A man saw me when i dropped down, but only told his comrades that I was volunteering to clean up and then sent me off to his office. Once out of view of all the conference people. I tried to get out of the building through a near by hallway. On my way out, I saw a creepy looking set of doors that were about mid-way up the wall. My friend, who had turned into 3 other people, whispered to me that the door was where "the rules are gone but the passage way continues" which is really creepy in retrospect. At the time, it seemed a perfectly normal thing to say, despite the fact that it was nowhere near the other tunnel.
After getting out of the building, I looked behind me and I appeared to be walking out of a building that was in San Jose on the Standford campus, which, again, made sense at the time. i checked the time, realized the play was almost over, and ran back to Paly, which was suddenly in the middle of the campus.

There was also something about running through grass.

I'm Behind.

Sorry for the delay, I've been a bit busy

This was sometime around the 10th-12th of November.

I dreamed that I went out into my backyard and I saw all my childhood memories in a long line. At the end of the line, the memories were dusty and faded, and I tried to relive them to make them brighter. Each time I relived them, less dust settled, but they grew less and less realistic. One was a girl (my younger self I suppose) who was climbing my play structure and scaring a squirrel in the nearby orange tree. Each time I replayed the memory, she would take a longer time, slowly becoming older and thus heavier. Eventually, I realized it was futile to go back to the past and I tried to get out of the memory, but I had suddenly become the child of my memory. It was very unfortunate.

Sleep Deprivation Does Strange Things to my Brain

October 22-24

Over the past few days, here are some snippets of my dreams

1) I remember that I was moving into some house, but I hadn't seen the house prior to moving in. I was sitting at a table with some girls saying I had just moved in and was about to see my house. I got up from the house and went inside. All the boxes had been put down, and my parents were mysteriously not around, so an unknown person (who I can only assume to be my friend) and I went exploring. Firstly, the house was very dark and dusty, some what similar to an old Victorian house. I had been told that they had been unable to find the body of the previous owner, so my friend and I were scaring each other by pretending it was buried in the house somewhere, with a knife in the body. As we went down some very creepy stairs, I found a room with a small couch and many doors leading to different rooms. One room was a tiny bedroom and I supposed it to be my room b/c I hadn't found mine yet. The next one was a small closet. As we neared the couch, I noticed the light switch was part of the couch, which doesn't make sense now, but made sense at the time. Mysteriously, a very gaunt dog was running around the house, so I followed it to where it was digging in some damp earth in a nearby room. In the earth I found it was digging up a will, so I asked the dog and it told me that it was the previous owner's will, and that the previous owner was in the other room. Freaked out, I went back to the room with the couch, which mysteriously had a large number of choir people practicing for a rehearsal. Trying to get out of their way, I decided to go outside, at which point my memory fails me.

2) I dreamed that my friend and I were presenting a project but she didn't know any of her part of the project.

3) I went home to try and do my homework and my Aunt and Uncle were taking the sheets off my bed. Confused, I asked them why they were in my house at all, to which they replied they were "just visiting". I went to my mother to complain that I didn't want them in my room, but she didn't do anything about it. Outside, in the backyard, my dad had parked a new car, which was black and had doors that rose up into the air when opened. Confused, I wandered around my house/yard for the remainder of my dream.

Digging to Canada

October 10

I was in a grassy area and Nick and I were hiking along. We got to a point where the path became too watery, so we put on some snorkling equipment. We never ended up using it, as we were soon on a dock area looking for my dad. We saw him on a boat trying to get everyone to turn around, and only succeeding when they got to the opposite bank. When he got to our side, we got in the boat and I was mysteriously flung through the air into the water and had to be rescued.
Next, my dad, a random person, and I were being chased by some sort of army. We decided to dig a tunnel to Canada to get away from the french which made sense at the time. We dug the tunnel until he hit an underground bathroom and I told my dad we should just escape but first he decided we should let the French try and get in. We did this, and all the French came in and attacked us. There was one girl that was about to kill me, but I told her it didn't really matter seeing as everything was always taken from me anyway. While she was distracted I hit her over the head, allowing her to be a "loss" w/o getting killed, which was part of a point system to determine who won the battle. After it was over, I saw the girl again and looked at her in a disappointed way for some reason.

Considering my Lack of Actual Physical Fitness, I Seem to be Very Active in Dreams

October 9, 2010
I was in the middle of an area surrounded by snow, and I was running as fast as I could away from this bear. For some reason I kept getting stuck in the snow and slowing down by large amounts but the bear was still unable to catch me. At some point I was able to push it on to another bear and, while they were fighting, I fled. I then saw my brothers and some friends who were looking at the bear fight, saying they were going to "catch the person who did [that] and teach them a lesson". Scared that they would be mad at me, I continued to run, trying to get to the top of a nearby hill so I could be out of sight.

There was also a small part of the dream during which I was inside a building and was trying to find "the inconspicuous passerby" who ended up being a random women that I passed while going through a doorway.

Rhode Island and Camping

October 8

I was supposed to be using some strange spatula shaped tool to clean grit out of the tires of a car, but the reason why was somewhat unclear. I seemed to be on a camping trip with a large number of people, and they were having burgers with melted candy fillings for lunch.
There was some point where I was in a house doing important things but I can't remember.
There was also something about a wheelchair and a trip to rhode island.

Schedule Issues

Oct 6

I was at some school campus on my bike and was going around corners exploring. As I went around a corner, I found a broken down area under some stairs with lots of boxes and broken down crates.
Later, I was with my friend's Katie and Emma and tried to leave her house, but there were all these scheduling problems due to the PSAT and such. It's rather unclear where I was or what was going on.

Sorry For Forgetting to Post My Dreams

September 29
First there was something about me dancing in a show that i really did not want to be in. For some reason it was very embarrassing and when I complained to my brother Nick about it he said that we should never mention the event ever again.
Then, I was riding on horse back across some trail seeing wild deer that looked liked donkeys everywhere. One male deer charged my horse, and I didn't know what to do. My dad said, "duck" which wasn't very helpful.
Lastly, I was in a bookstore having bought a present for my mom, but having picked out a dull book. I was trying to exchange it, but for some reason I had to go through a long ordeal. I don't know where I was, but it had giant staircases and impressive arches, and despite the fact that the bookstore started on ground level I kept exiting from the first floor and having walk down stairs. Those stairs were very thin and had books everywhere. The shopkeeper kept disappearing into this strange upstairs area, but I didn't want to follow them up there for some reason, so i kept having to wait for them.

Note: I seem have misplaced multiple dreams that I had written down. I think I recycled them. Sorry about that.

Escaping

September 19

Though I can't remember my dream in full clarity, there were some parts I remember very well, but I'm not sure how they all connect.

At one point, I was running down a hallway, and discovered a natural ladder that had formed out of strange boxes on the walls. I climbed up the ladder and escaped from the people that were chasing me, but I discovered that I was actually in plain sight from anyone below me if they bothered to look up.

Later, I was with my sister/friend in a similar situation, and she escaped but I didn't. Then, I became her, and ran off over a hill and through some water to escape. I/She came across a hiking trail and pretended to be hikers so as to cover our escape.

School Related Strangeness

September 18

The first part related to strange cheerleaders being jerks at school. There was this giant chase and something about a glove. I don't remember what happened, but it ended in one of them pouring a gallon of vinegar on my head.

Next, I was looking through this random guy's backpack, and noticing that his teachers just gave him terrible grades no matter what he did. I found this unfair, since some of the comments in the writing section included things about pronunciation. When his teacher came over, I made rude comments when she couldn't pronounce words, but it didn't make sense because we were discussing another language at the time.

Then I was trying to camp out like the early settlers, only I was in the courtyard of my school. There was all this sand on the ground, but the wind was very windy, and it was blowing everywhere. I dug myself a ditch, but then all this wildlife was everywhere and everyone else fled. I had fallen asleep in the pit, and woke up to find everyone gone and lots of wild animals running around. I ran, leaving my stuff behind, into a random classroom, which turned into my house.

Why are my Siblings Always Insane in Dreams?

September 15
My dreams were all stress-filled and confusing.
I was sitting on some dock with my brother Nick, thinking about going across the shore to get my brother Alex, when Alex decided to walk across the lake in strange dressy clothing. I yelled at him because I thought he was going to make the boat wet but he ignored me.
At one point I was chased by a deer and was getting kicked and bitten as i fled.
There was also something about food shops and alarms when I opened books.

Snow

September 13
Last night I dreamed I was camping/ hiking through snowy mountains. First, my brother and I climbed a giant rock pile, but he got to the top whereas I gave up. Seeing his accomplishment, I tried again and got to the top. Each time a new person went by, I would climb up to point out my skill
Then my brother and I decided to climb up a random peak, but the snow was slippery, and I couldn't keep my balance. I kept falling over and sliding part way down. Soon we gave up and came back down, past these strange groups of people. We found my dad, who was making a fire, but before we finished, there was a rockslide.
It was very odd, as it seemed to just flow down the mountains with tons of rocks and swept everything in it's path aside. It hit our campsite and I was caught in the landslide. I decided to stay limp, because struggling caused me to sink, and soon I got out of the snow. I couldn't find my dad, mainly because I was using a technique I remembered my dad telling me, which was to cover my eyes and walk, so as to protect me. Because of this, I couldn't see. It was a fairly stupid dilemma.

Disjointed

September 11
Last night was very disjointed. It started put with some dream about running through snow and being almost hit on the head by a giant animal. Then, I was at a school, and was looking at the man who made the popcorn fill his butter machine. I looked in the mirror and saw my reflection. I was with 2 other people, and their reflections didn't show them, but a person who was inside of them. Mine, however only showed me, and I was confused. Later, I was explaining it to my mom, and she thought it meant I had come back with the most difficult extra person. (I assumed she meant back from the snow area.) in my dream, I had a fuzzy understanding that everyone else's extra selves were temporary, but mine was very permanent. It was scary at the time.
There was also a confusing part where I told some group of people I was gay, but then took it back. The crowd then turned into highschool students, and we were all running around in random classrooms, and talking about terrible t.v shows.
Then some strange things about Harry Potter capes happened, but I can't remember very much.

Heart Failure

September 5
It started off with something about my heart not beating due to a fall I had taken down some stairs whilst holding a microwave. I had been standing on a ledge trying to open a microwave, but had lost my balance.
After having fallen I had walked into church, but I couldn't use my muscles in my arm without pain, so we left early. Soon after, my heart stopped beating and my parents brought me to the hospital. When I woke up I had two hearts in my body and a broken arm, so had to spend time getting better. My first action was to make a facebook status, and then I went out for a walk around the gardens to get better. My feet were very wobbly and I kept slipping around. My mom had to help me stay upright for most of the time, and at one point we slipped down a hillside covered in pink slime and into the nest of a hornbill-esque creature. The creature got mad at our intrusion, so I scrambled away.
The next part related to my heart injury in an unknown way, but suddenly I was in the middle of a large battle. I grabbed a gun that allowed for wide shots and proceeded to snipe at the enemy. My broken arm and wounded heart slowed me down, and there were many close calls. At one point I jumped super fast off a cliff to try and reach the enemy city, but I fell through the air at too fast a rate. Somehow I got rescued, and found myself in the middle of the enemy city with my math teacher. It was very strange and scary, so I tried to "save" but then I remembered life didn't have an option to save or load. At that point, my heart stopped beating again, and I passed out/woke up.

I Blame This Dream On Lack Of Sleep

September 4, 2010

We were hiking around and found this cave. In the cave were dark places and lots of rock so we went around and investigated. When we tried to get out of it, the cave opening had moved to above our heads and we discovered we were stuck in a pit. I climbed on my brother's shoulders and climbed out. Once out, I noticed that our horses (that had appeared) were running away, so i abandoned my family in the cave and ran after them. Eventually I gave up and remembered my brother and father in the cave and went back to check on them. The pit opening was at the top of a hill this time, so i decided to removed all the stones on the side of the hill. This plan was not a good one, however, as soon the whole cave collapsed.

Next there was a part about finding a computer at the top of the hill and trying to e-mail my mother to tell her about the cave incident, but the internet wasn't working (no duh) and so it somehow deleted everything in my e-mail. When we (my family had someone gotten out) went back home, I found a small turtle. I put it in an old tank, but there were giant crickets and mealworms in the tank that ended up eating the animal. I tried to rescue the other turtles that were in other tanks, but was grossed out by everything else, so I gave up.

There was another part of my dream that had something to do with a school trip and getting lost. I was leaving via this strange ramp as I tried to find my way around, but I ran into my friends and they directed me the correct way.

I Need To Play Less Computer Games

August 29
There was this hermit/turtle/evil cheif person who kept following me around whilst my family and I were snow camping. At one point he got mad at us (when in his evil stage) and so we proceeded to battle him. He had a strange rotating device that shot out glowing orbs, and we had to knock down these wooden poles so that the machine wouldn't work. I knocked one down, but then a giant picked me up and held me as a target. Another person on the enemy side shot a beam of sunlight at me, but I scrambled on to the giant's back and flung myself off so that the sunlight hit the giant and killed it.
A one point my brother and I were walking around and trying to get to the public library, but there was a giant ice bank that had the hermit guy in it. He (my brother) kept trying to fling me over the bank, but his throw was off, so we both crashed into the ice, enraging the hermit once again.
There was also some part about me being homeless and sleeping out in the rain.

More Randomness

Last night I dreamed I was sitting in my backyard petting some dog, when a random guy hopped over the fence. Confused and slightly annoyed (not scared for some reason), I went up to him to tell him to get out of my yard. The man did some strange hand gesture in the hair that I somehow knew was magical, and I started to flee. Unfortunately, the spell caught me and lifted me into the air and trapped me in a dark place. I could move or see, causing me to become claustrophobic.

(I woke up to find myself tangled in the sheets)

Babysitting

August 18
In the first section, I was called to babysit in an emergency situation for my next door neighbor, Austin. I agreed and had just started getting him to take a nap when the doorbell rang. I answered it to find a random girl who informed me she had come to babysit Austin. I didn't know her, and neither of us had proof that we were the rightful babysitter, so we decided to both babysit and then just split the wages equally.
Meanwhile, some sort of parade was going on outside so we both went out to investigate. We discovered a parade with small children in carts being pulled by ducks. The other girl told me to watch Austin's dog (which had just suddenly appeared) while she watched the parade. There was also a bear that was following the parade and some how got into the house. It followed me and scratched me and generally acted unrealistic and territorial.
Soon after, I was walking in a little kid area/amusement park with my parents trying to find some where to play in, but everything kept shutting down before we got there. We sent my mom to come in from the other side to snatch food before things closed and then we ate all the food she had collected.

Camping Dreams

August 11-15
I went camping for 4 days, and here are various dreams I had during that time.
At one point I dreamed I got back from a camping trip to discover that I had a ton of summer homework, and that the next day was the first day of school. I was really scared and realized all I had finished was the required reading without having done any of the notes or maps or anything. Looking back over the instructions, I noticed the reading was "optional".

Another time I dreamt my mom was making my dinner in the microwave, and so I decided to get up and check. I actually woke myself up. As it turns out, the "microwave" was the waterfall that my tent was camped near. Oh well.

A different night I dreamed that I was asking for a job at some carwash place. They asked me if I had reccomendations, a résumé, or experience. I told them no, I had none of those things, but I did have ability with towels and water (or something like that). The employer checked with her college to see if I would be acceptable, and then decided to hire me. She then proceeded to show me all the things needed for the job, and explained that even though it was 10pm, most of the other workers were still there. Then she proceeded to set me to work, while a bunch of other students my age were introduced to me. Their names kept changing, which confused me, but eventually I got the hang of it.

My last dream on the trip was also equally strange, and full of interesting details, most of which I don't remember. The main part I remember consisted of some girl being super mad at me due to something I had said. After awhile of her yelling at me, I pointed out that we were next to some open windows, and everyone could hear us. I drove us both to my house, and we went into my garage to argue. My mom came out to ask why I had driven the car, so the other girl hid whilst I proceeded to give my mother some lame excuse about getting my bike from school. She nodded and went back inside the house. After that, I turned back to the girl and we decided to stop arguing.

My Dreams Really Need More Organization

August 8
One part was about a person who was stuck in blue sticky sand and so made a giant chain with their famiily so they could all fling themselves into a deep pond.
Another part was about a boy lying on the railroad tracks and I was trying to convince him to get up. I did, just in time, and he ran to his family and hugged them. Feeling like an outsider, I turned and walked off and when the boy turned to point me out, I was gone.

School Stress #unknown

August 7
Today I dreamed that it was the first day of school but I hadn't done any of the summer homework.

Tatooes

August 3
I was with my family and we all decided to get tatooes. But when we got to the place, my father was impatient, and told us all to get our tatooes quickly. I was attempting to get a bracelet one with a Rice Boy-esque landscape, but instead I got a "fearless" tatooe with strange black wavy lines because I was rushing. Later, I was annoyed with myself for not choosing with care, so I asked my brother what he got. He had three tatooes, carefully placed at the exact beginning, middle, and end of his left arm. The first one had a brown dog and then two blue-green dogs playing. He said something about how they symbolized himself and my other brother and I. The others ones were equally strange, but I cannot remember them
Then I was attempting to bike through a store, but was getting yelled at for doing so. The owner told everyone who was with me (various other people had appeared) to get off our bikes, but I fled through the store at a tremendous rate and got out before the man could catch me. While I was running through the store, I saw my theatre teacher, and I was worried she had seen me. I quickly biked to school and started doing theatre things so he wouldn't catch on, but people kept stopping l me along the way and commenting on my tatooe, that had morphed into something strange and mystical looking.

A Rather Dull Dream

August 2
I was in someone's large, prestigious house, and they had many animals which were running around wildly. One of my friends picked up the person's dog, but then accidentally got mad. The man yelled at everyone for acting like terrible guests, and the ushered us all out.

A Late Dream

Note: This dream happened on July 12, but my iPod on which I write down my dreams refused to e-mail my dream to myself, causing much irritation. But here is the late dream.

July 12
I was at an amusement park on some water ride, and the instructions were very confusing. I was told to put on helmets and goggles but I didn't so I got transported to a different land. I had some sort of creature or something... Not 100% sure what was going on.
Next, I was on a tour in some boat when a guy fell out of the boat and had to be rescued by someone on the shore with a long white pole. She came down and told us all to be more careful, and then started to show us some abalones. She told us she collected them for a living. We waded through the water and she pointed out a small cavern that had abalones everywhere. There were 4 of us and I couldn't see, so I started to back out of the place, but it had become very thin and required some hard crawling. When I got out, the lady was telling us that we wouldn't have to pay in money, just in abalones that we had collected. I hadn't collected very many, because it had been crowded, so my parent had to pay with a check.
Later, I was sitting in a tree feeling like it wasn't very fair (in reference to the whole situation with paying money). I don't know who I was, but I might have possibly been the person who couldn't pay or some girl named Katie that everyone around me was mentioning.

Movies

August 1

So I was at a movie theatre with some of my friends, and was planning on watching a a video that was a collection of clips from a YouTube channel. Some of the clips included me in them, and suddenly I was back in the making of the movie. It was fairly hectic and people were needing help to do embarrassing things. I was doing weird things like weighing shoes against water and explaining how to button closed a shirt. Whenever I did these embarrassing things there was always a camera person there to film "behind the scenes" footage, which was annoying and some what embarrassing at times.

Competitions

July 31
I was in a competition with 8 other girls my age, and we were in a theatre. We all put on silly costumes and had an acting lesson. I was wearing a very tall hat, and for some reason this led to me being ignored during the lesson. I was worried that the judges (???) would think that it implied I was not memorable, thus kicking me out of the competition. I moped about it in the car ride home, and when I got to our communal house, I put the brim of the hat over my eyes and went straight to my room. Some of the other girls went on to the patio that bordered my room and proceeded to talk about all my flaws. Embarrassed and irritated, I decided to hide under my bed so that the other girls couldn't tell I was listening. The girls paused in their cruel analysis and peered into the window to see if I was really in my room. Luckily, I was under the bed, but one girl named Nicole saw me. Later, I went to apologize to a girl named Catie for my behavior (not sure who she was or what behavior I meant, but whatever). We talked it out and decided to forgive each other, but later I heard her say she was never going to actually forgive me. Later, at judging, I was told I was very easy to forget, and so was unsuited for the competition. There was some other stuff where I pointed out other people who were also as unsuited, but I wasn't allowed to continue despite my protests.

Random 2

July 30

I was in some sort of raffle for senior tickets despite that fact that I was not a senior. My senior friend and I hung out on the piano and goofed around whilst everyone else danced or played games or whatever.
In the second half of my dream I was having a very complex dream, but I have no memory of what it was about.

Roller Coasters

July 26
First, someone was teaching me how to bhangra dance.
Next, I was making scrambled eggs with sausage and onions, except my dad was also making food so I had to wait for him. By the time he was done, he wanted to leave and have a family excursion at the library, and so he dragged me and my brothers even though I was in pajamas. We parked our bikes outside the library, and had a giant argument, which was awkward because a bunch of people we knew were there. There was something about ice cream and biking.
Later, I was at some amusement park with my good friend. We wanted to do things at the park, but all the games required tokens, and all the token machines required MORE tokens to use them. Annoyed, we went to the counter and decided to split a drawer (similar to a locker I think) for our possessions like our wallets. The drawer was sold in halves, so in the end we divided it into quarters between my friend and myself and I placed a stack of change on the table to pay for the rides and the drawer. The woman asked us what rides we wanted to go on and my friend suggested various ones. We then got into a car, driven by two guides, and drove to the rides. There were not enough seats so I was facing the back windshield, whilst 2 girls I didn't know were facing the front. One girl's name was Alex, and I asked if I could call the other one Nick. My friend had disappeared by this point, but I don't remember being concerned.
When we got out of the car the ride consisted of lying down over the edge of a tall, hump-like structure, and then having the hump placed at the bottom of the ride. I was not prepared, and so when the ride started moving I became terrified. The ride moved you, not tr hump, and proceeded to spin you around and move you up and down, the whole time not ever being tied or connected to you. When we got out I was really scared and remembered that my friend had picked the ride especially for me. I thought about yelling at him, but I'd already had that big argument with my dad so I let it pass.

A Mysterious Competition

July 25

I was in my backyard with a bunch of college students, and they were all playing with their hair and discussing lipstick and makeup and the like. Bored, I decided to go see what was in my fridge, but on my way inside the house, the crowd of girls cheered very loudly and I found my self tugged back to the crowd whilst some woman came and gave us all a speech. She said she was disappointed in our creativity, and so we would have to walk around a maze and prove that we really were serious about our work.
I rolled my eyes, but I followed her into my house, which had turned into a type of bizarre swimming pool. There was no water in the pool, yet it was still possible to walk in graceful jump like ways around objects. It seemed more of a place without gravity than without water, but that was just the dream talking. There was a small path in the middle of the water that made it possible to walk waist deep in the water, and the path split at various points, to create more paths. It was in a basic circle shape, but it was also like a maze, and we were instructed to try to get back to the beginning as quickly as possible. I walked faster than everyone else and made sure to follow the correct path and when I stopped (I had walked in a circle as I was supposed to), there were a group of girls all sitting on a bench being critiqued. I was curious that I was not critiqued as I did not remember those people being part of the original group of girls. I waited patiently, and eventually I was told to have walked to fast. I was mad, because I thought I would win because of that, but instead I had points taken off.
Right as I was about to say something however, I was transported to a table with some random teenager my own age that I did not know, and we were discussing the bar nearby. There were two guys sitting in the bar, but they were older than us and were allowed to be drinking. The random girl was saying that she just wanted to have fun for once, but I felt awkward and scared and wanted to get out of there.
As though my wish were granted, I was transported to my school, only it was suddenly night time. At this point, I was very confused about what had been happening and I just decided to sit down and wait for whatever came by. This would have been a great plan, except nothing came by, and eventually I woke up from my dream.

Zombies and Various Chase Scenes

July 23
I was running away from zombies that were taking over the world, in a very action packed chase scene. There was this demon at one point who stood in the middle of a pedestal and slowly started to glow red, which caused all the humans in the area to be drawn to him and not be afraid. I ran inside and tried to get my friend to hurry up but she was slow, so at one point a zombie/vampire/demon (what they were became unclear) clawed her on the side of the neck. I was busy fleeing, but I didn't want to leave her, so I tried to hold her as I ran, but she was super heavy. I had this idea that we would hide in the garage, but then the door wouldn't open when I pressed the right combo, and we almost got caught. We fled to an island area, and I got inside a cave and collapsed. I dropped the random girl (who was my friend but I didn't know her... It was confusing in retrospect.) who I was a carrying and lay there panting, just in time to get trapped in the cave. I couldn't get up, and then they took the girl away and surrounded me. I waited till they thought I was completely helpless and then sprang up and fled.
Later, while standing on a hill overlooking the city, I was thinking of all the ways I had fled the zombies, wearing jackets and cleverly trapping them in locked buildings. I realized I had become older, almost 20, and was one of the only humans left. It seems I was not sad about all my random friends who had died. Either that or I had forgotten all of them already.

Trees

July 21

My brothers and I went out into the backyard and grew roots where are feet were whenever our feet touched the grass. My brothers both changed into trees, which was odd and involved sinking into the grass and having expanding heads. When I didn't want to become a tree they dragged me on so that I also turned into a tree. Only I didn't, I just got roots. Nick, my brother, got mad and tangled his roots in mine till I screamed in pain and got mad. We had a momentary argument and punching fit, but soon we calmed down. We went around digging deep with our roots and leveled all the trees and plants in the yard.

Adventures on an Island

July 20
I was attempting to walk around on a nature walk of an island with my camp, when my brother Nick and I got separated from everyone else. After walking around randomly, we came to a building and there were various creepy people in it. Worried, we conferred with one another and decided to escape through the convenient ceiling hatch. I suddenly was detached from my body and watched as Nick was skeptical and I stood and his shoulders and told him it was safe. Once inside, I accidentally fell on a certain part of the hatch rather heavily, as the space had suddenly become filled with ants and creepy insects, and was suddenly in the main room of the creepy people. I suddenly returned to my body, and suddenly there were people telling me what to do, similar to having a split consciousness, and they all spoke in different voices. The boss came in and I ripped an axe from the wall simply because it said "do not touch". Then I fled quickly as the boss informed me that she knew exactly who I was. I fled past various rooms, and once outside met a lush tropical jungle. I saw in front of me a large hillside with various toys on it. I suddenly knew I had to find the special axe in the toys, so I sprinted up the hill in search for the toys. Suddenly the boss was pinning me from behind, and there was a moment when she did a creepy boss moment saying, "I know all about you. The experiment. I secrets. I know it all". I lunged for a nearby toy fireman axe and suddenly it turned to a real one.
Next I was standing lounging on a gate, and I was talking with my friends, who were all deserting me for new friends or whatever. Suddenly, the last one left tugged me by the hand, and we ran through the jungle to a clearing, where in I saw my brothers and a beautiful stream. I asked her to go swimming with me, but she got teary eyed and told me my journey was one to be taken alone, before disappearing into the jungle. I was saddened, and as I walked to my brothers, I contemplated that life could never go back to how it was.
Eventually, I got back home and Nick was telling me something about how he had followed the hatch and slid out to safety when I had fallen.

Celebrities

July 14
I was going down the street and after talking to a boy and making conversation, I decided to walk home. On my walk, I saw Justin Bieber and waved at him. He was going my direction, so we walked until the house next to mine, where he turned in. I asked him why and he told me it was charity, so I just nodded.

Youtube

July 13
I was walking down a street/park with various YouTube celebrities, talking and chatting. At some point we reached a door and once inside I went to go sit with my parents. My brother, who suddenly appeared, wanted to sit away from the parents, but my mother stopped him and told him to sit with us. A concert was happening and my dad pulled out a strange silver trumpet and started playing along in an embarrassing way.

Becoming a T.V. Show Character

July 10

I was watching a strange t.v. show (ANTM, not that I normally watch such a show, but I accidentally clicked a link for said show in real life, and ended up watching an episode) which had happened in 2004, but suddenly I was at a college campus and getting honored in relation to that. I had become one of the people in the show, and as her, I had gone rafting/swimming in rapids. I had gone with 3 guys, and all the guys were trying to prove they were stronger and stuff, so as the person on the show, I dove in the water to prove myself. After we were done, I knew for a second that I was awake, so I had my former self (who was now a random person named Ann) be really strong but then get hurt by falling in the water. After Ann and the three guys all got out of the water, I became Ann again, just in time for the four of us to be judged on our swim. One guy was said to have not had any emotion, but he claimed he was just being one with the river. They complimented me/Ann on our swimming ability, and then my dream changed.
I was mixing small balls of colored dough together and placing these balls on a map or something. They turned into dogs and penguins, and then they had babies (they sort of came alive). I suggested that since the babies couldn't be married, they could be boyfriend and girlfriend.
Suddenly, I was in a giant field that had hundreds of chairs being set up. It was discovered that I was there to get an award because of my suggestion about the dough babies becoming girlfriend and boyfriend. I even had my own Wikipedia article talking about it. I found it strange, because I claimed to have made the suggestion while I was watching the 2004 season of the t.v. show, but I had been watching it in 2010. My dream person was too confused to think about it, and soon I was waving at people who were passing by and commenting on my award.

Random

July 9

Last night there were a few disjointed dreams that didn't make sense.
At one point I was in a strange storyline, involving nice groups and an evil group. The evil group was trying to prove something, and was doing so by turning into trees and sneaking into the good person camp. Eventually they climbed up a giant rock and were trying to take over the camp. I was somehow on both sides, but I wasn't directly involved.
Next I was at some museum and I was trying to change my clothing without getting in the way. There were tons of people bumbling around, and it was very confusing and annoying. Eventually, everyone left at the same time and I was helping put partitions up. I was singing some song, and then everyone sung along with me.

I've been having trouble remembering my dreams lately.

Teeth

July 8

I don't really remember with much clarity what my dream was about, but I do recall vaguely something about having my teeth fall out. When one tooth fell out, it was revealed that all my teeth were connected by wires and so when one fell out, all of them fell out.

There was also something about being in a dark room with little bottles everywhere. I was there with characters from the Harry Potter books. There might have been something about a lake, but I can't really remember

Photography

July 6

I was at my house, preparing to follow after people and take pictures of them, whilst they were biking. My mother handed me a telephone book, and upon questioning, revealed that it was so i would know the names of everyone I was following. I scoffed at her suggestions, but asked if maybe I should bring paper so as to have notes of where and when i took each one.

Next, there were these people biking around and I was following them on my bike taking pictures, but all the pictures were turning out blurry and not very good quality. I then asked each person to get off their bikes and stand still, one at a time. At this point, my camera turned into a real camera, and some one yelled at the people I was photographing, telling them they were terrible models.

An Interesting Museum Visit

July 5

I was at a Museum and I was not following the rules. Nick (my brother), Alex (my other brother), and I were climbing over the glass walls of a natural history exhibit to further explore. We started by looking at the lava between rocks and commenting that it felt really hot, despite the fact that it was in an exhibit where nobody was supposed to actually be in. There were all these plastic prehistoric animals that were coming to life, but we didn't try to yell for help, because we felt it would be embarrassing to be stuck in a place where we weren't supposed to be. As we left the exhibit, I noticed we had offset a stool and none of us could figure out where it was supposed to go. We had also disturbed some other objects, including a pen (not sure why I distinctly remember the pen), but we figured it didn't really matter where they went, because museums were always having to clean that sort of stuff up anyway. Eventually, a guard came by and informed us that the museum was closing. We went down some impressive stairs and were walking to some hallway, when my dad (who had suddenly appeared) suggested that we stop by the bathroom first.
That was when my dream became very weird.
There was a bathroom nearby, and right outside it was a large concrete toilet which was a statue, but could flush. This strange design of statue did not perturb us one bit, but there were a few moments of my dream where my dad was suggesting we just use the statue instead of going in the bathroom. It was a fairly awkward situation and eventually I was somehow in the bathroom (I didn't walk there, I just suddenly appeared there), and there were hundreds of people inside. Everywhere, people were changing, both men and women, so I quickly left the room, assuming it was a Men's restroom (not sure why I thought that). Once outside, I glanced around and saw a giant crowd of adults, all dressed in fancy ballroom gowns or suits, all standing in a sort of crowded parade or perhaps a very messy line. I began to hurry to get out of the museum because I thought there was going to be some event that happened as a charity or something.
However, despite my hurrying I was soon looking down at the crowd, in a detached, floating sort of way. I saw the crowd cheer and proceed to push forward, surrounding a large, risen black platform on which a throne was sitting. There was a strange sort of light coming from the ceiling and out of it stepped a person dressed in white who I immediately knew to be the queen. She sat down in her throne and addressed the people surrounding her. She spoke in a rhyme. telling them "Come to the *something something something* to which you all were. Do not fear the change, you are safe now and pure."
Suddenly, all the audience members were turning into dark scaly skinned monsters with thick knotted hair, yellow teeth and creepy faces. They looked vaguely like Orcs. (I have way too many dreams involving Lord of the Rings characters). All of them began to smile and grin at each other and then they all turned (there were about a thousand of them now), and looked directly at me.
I ran, once again in my body, and fled in the direction of the door. Once outside I sprinted through the forest area that was outside the museum, until it became too dark to see. I started walking at a normal pace and once I had been walking for a few minutes, I walked into a clearing.
Once again, my father and brothers were with me, and there were all these little white lights that surrounded the trees and lighted the edge of the pathways. Classical music was playing in a very calming way, and as we strolled through the gardens that happened to be there, the lights would turn on just as we would walk past. A random woman was also there, and as we walked she continued to say creepy things to my father, and make strange faces. The faces and the things she was saying did not relate, which led to a rather disturbing conversation on the whole.
Eventually, we were sitting on a bench looking at the night sky when I looked into a hole and saw the crowd of Orc-people. I heard the queen's voice saying that only four had changed, each with a special ability, to start off the game. I suddenly realized that 4 of the people had changed into Orcs. Which was weird, because earlier the entire crowd had become an Orc. And I had just looked into a hole and seen all the Orcs. But in my actual dream, the queen's words made sense.

There was some part that related to school, but I can't remember it with enough clarity to write about it.

Umm?

July 4

There was something about Camels and Lord of the Rings. Only this was during the making of the movie and all the other actors were making fun of me because I was really young. There was also a vague reference to my inability to get on a horse after 20 tries and accidentally getting dragged through tide pools.
Later, I was hiding under a table during an earthquake and suddenly all these Orcs erupted out of the ground. The dream achieved nightmare status as I started to run away from the Orcs. I tried to get away but they pulled me down and suddenly I realized they had stabbed me. I then realized I had died and was looking down at my dead body. It was fairly creepy.

I waited until 1 am of the next day to write this, so the details are fuzzy.

Creepy Skeleton Chase Scenes

July 3,

Last night my dream took place in three parts.

In the first part, I was a character in a computer game, specifically the game "The Enchanted Cave", a real life game on http://www.kongregate.com/ .I was attempting to gain treasure out of chests while some voice from above told me what to attack, and where to go. I looked up, and suddenly I had restarted the game by accident. The same thing happened to me multiple times, repeating the same sequence of treasure getting and looking up.

The next part, I had somehow gotten myself stuck in a room with three skeletons, all of whom where attempting to hold me down and chain me to a wall so that Death (who was apparently was a skeleton, and their leader) could come and take me back. Where they were taking me back to is an unresolved issue. Anyways, eventually Death came and picked me up, with one hand, from behind, which was mysterious seeing as I had just been chained to a wall. He grinned creepily, and we proceeded to float down through some dark passageways, until we reached a door. Death went through the door, but since I didn't have the power to going through doors, he dropped me. For some reason I did not run, but waited patiently for him to come and pick me up again. Once outside, we proceeded to float past some various pastures and hills, and I realized I was holding a vial filled with green-blue goo. I looked next to me/ behind me at death, whom I had never actually seen the face of. He had a green lined face, and a long nose, though it was all bone and no flesh. I asked him about the goo and he told me that once we got to "the place", he would put the goo on me and I would die. I nodded and asked him some random question and he proceeded to answer in a long winded sort of way. Having distracted him, I grabbed the goo and dashed it (blogspot says that dashed is not a word?) to the ground, and somehow ran out of his grip.

Next, I was still running away from death, but this time I was with a friend of mine. We were in Norway, in a deserted village, and Death was standing on a hill not too far off. My friend handed me a ring and told me to "do a back-flip when we [got] to the school". Apparently, "that [would] do the trick". I nodded, but was very confused. I put on the ring and suddenly both my friend and I were invisible. Somehow, I knew that Death had given me the ring which i had given to my friend, so it surprised me to find out that Death could not see either of us. We ran into a nearby mall (don't ask), and through some random shops. Next, we ran into the men's restrooms, shut ourselves in stalls, and stood on the toilets so that death could not see our feet. Despite the fact that we were invisible, we were still worried about our feet showing. After a small break, with Death nowhere around, my friend started to yell things, so as to taunt Death. I found this ridiculous, and popped my head over the stall side to tell him so, but he had suddenly turned into Pipin from The Lord of the Rings. I was so surprised that I failed to notice Death, who suddenly grabbed both Pipin and myself and with a triumphant "AHA!" proceeded to whisk us off to wherever we were going.

At some point, I got free again and was telling Death all about how to fight with a sword, but that part of my dream is very confusing. (Not that the first half isn't confusing as well...)

Basements, Parades, and Other Exciting Adventures

July 2

My dream started out somewhere in the snow, where my family and I were camping. There was a nearby river that had strange murky things in it, and lots of sticks. At one point we were trying to forge it, but I'm not sure for what purpose.
Later, we were in the basement of my house, attempting to find things to do. There were some various cousins and friends also with my siblings and I, and so I was trying to prove that my house was exciting. I told them that there were many secret passages in the walls, and to prove it I proceeded to touch every slightly indented area on my way down the basement steps. Though I had really been lying about the secret passages, a few secret passages appeared during my search. I then had to pretend that I wasn't excited to explore them, since I had told everyone that I had been in them before.
A little bit later, I was returning to the normal area of the house and I saw my brother Nick packing up his backpack and attempting to sneak out of the house. It had suddenly become night. I snuck after him and saw him walk out the front door and climb into a car. I would have followed more, but I felt a hand on my shoulder and some random women was leading me to another car, and bemused by the whole experience, I followed. Soon I was riding along in the second car, though we seemed to be going in an opposite direction. Eventually it became clear that somebody was looking for my brother, and whoever it was thought that the car he was in was MY car.
Suddenly, my dream changed, leaving the random car chase experience unexplained, and I was tagging along, pretending to be part of a parade. I was collecting +1 symbols that appeared out of peoples arms when they marched, but it was somewhat difficult because I wasn't walking, but actually getting dragged along by the person in front of me. After awhile, my ride started going so fast that I slid sideways and hit a stone barrier, causing me to detach from my ride. At first I was annoyed, then embarrassed as people proceeded to laugh at me. To hide my embarrassment I jumped over to the other side of the stone barrier. Not that this was an improvement. I was now standing in water, blocking the way for a parade that involved the queen. I attempted to jump out of the way, into some strange green lily pads. Disgusted, I flailed around trying to get the water off, causing a lot of mayhem. Eventually, there was some part about counting discs or pebbles or something.

More School Stress

July 1

This time I was going into my first day of history, but for some reason it wasn't the first day of school. It was a day during the summer when you came and took only your first two classes of the day, and then went home. I walked into history and everyone in my class was super annoying. Also, we immediately were taking a reading quiz of some sort and when I had gotten half-way through the quiz, the teacher walked out of the room and someone stole my paper. I was annoyed that my teacher was not the one I was looking forward to having, plus my class was terrible. I walked out of the class quietly crying and hurried to the office, because for some reason nobody had told me my second period class and I had nowhere else to go. I had to wait in a long line in the office, and when I got to the front of the line, my new Spanish teacher was there. She told me how nice it would be to have me in her class, but I informed her that I had never received a schedule. I told her I wanted to change my class for history to one where I had a preferable teacher and class. After awhile, I came out of the office and everything was disorienting, because it was no longer my high school. Eventually I proceeded to walk around in every English classroom asking if I was on the role call. It was very confusing.

Third Grade

Jun 29
I was back in my third grade classroom, and I was getting a grade back on some assignment. The assignment I had turned in had a hand drawn star and a few words scribbled underneath. My third grade teacher explained I would have to start doing better, and was talking to my father about it. I went outside the classroom and I lost my grip on my paper, and it flew away in the breeze. It fluttered across a field and over a fence, and as I lost it, my teacher was annoyed that I was unable to catch the paper, telling me it was part of my grade.
Next I realized that I wasn't in third grade, but actually in 11th grade. I then thought how on days when lunch was after my English class (I suppose I was taking third grade English at Duveneck, my old elementary school), I would have a half hour to get back to PALY (my actual high school). I was telling my teacher that it would take 45 mins to get to PALY, and so there wasn't enough time. And anyway, I informed her, I couldn't ever get to 4th period on time, because passing period was only 5 minutes.
Suddenly, I was on a train and when it stopped I was walking down the train aisle, but the setup was similar to the Hogwarts train in Harry Potter. There were many separate compartments, and each had a classroom in it. I was trying to find my classroom, and there was some lady asking me how I felt when I turned wooden handles, and later I found out I was placed in a Special Ed class. It was all very strange.

There Really Can Be No Title For This Dream

Jun 28
It started off with myself and a random guy awkwardly staring at each other across rooms, until eventually we met. Then we went diving together, only we first wrapped ourselves in polyester tubes, such that we didn't have to use oxygen. We inspected the water and found mini jellyfish and little tiny animals, but we soon realized that all the animals were dying because of pollution.
Soon I was in a large room, and they were announcing the winners of some strange television show. I was not anywhere close to being a winner, but there was a part where my friend from ice-skating won, so I was pleased.

Later, on a mysterious tangent, I was in a cooking class setting with my friends and we were cooking pizza. The annoying people in my cooking class dropped cherries into it for some reason, but we were able to still make an okay pizza. Later, I walked into my first class of the day (for some reason cooking didn't count), but at first I couldn't remember what my first period class was. I walked into a random class and asked if it was "2nd period", but I was ushered rudely out.
Then, I was back at the competition place, only things had changed from the initial design. To begin with, there were 4 picture stations set up, surrounding a small pool. It was very sunny and warm, and I appeared to be on my way out of the reception. I was walking with someone that was apparently my friend, and their mother. At each picture station they took your email and name, so that they could send you the pictures. At first the pictures were taken as you walked by, to test your natural picture taking abilities. However, the last ones required standing on couches and posing. I was watching my friend try posing and I thought I would try, because I realized that a bunch of poses were possible. In the end however, I just felt too awkward to have my picture taken. I told the camera people that I wanted to become part of the technical aspects, like lighting or sound. I then decided to try taking an experimental picture with my friend and her mother, and when it didn't look terrible, I left my name and email down. When they heard my last name, they said "I don't want to hear that last name" and I was intrigued, but did not question.
Upon walking out of the picture area, my friend and her mother disappeared and I was standing next to some tall, brown haired man who was teaching me how to plug myself into an Ethernet cable and access the inside of the controls for the picture taking area. At one point, we dove into a small white paneled area, while a women yelled at us. The guy pushes me forward to access this strange screen with data on it, but he was unplugged from his cable and was unable to stay inside the data area. I'm not sure what happened after that, but i think the man lived and I eventually got out.

Chase Scenes

Jun 27
I was crouching outside of a museum, dressed in some sort of running clothes, and I carefully snuck into the museum and was hopping from covered patch to covered patch until a guard caught me and chased me. I ran out passed the woolly mammoth exhibit and past a case about brains and out through a "museum personnel only" door. Once outside, I realized there were police and various investigator looking for me, and I had to run away very fast. This women chased me for a long time, through a complex city that had an extremely improbable number of thin passages between buildings, and way too many trash cans. It was late at night, and as I rounded a corner, there was the museum again. I had somehow run in a complete circle (though it took me what felt like hours). Dashing through the legs of the policemen, I mysteriously ran back into the museum. I had a large chase with various people and ended up running out the same door as before. At this point, my dream changed to something about bathtubs.

Theatre Performances

June 25
this marks the start of my "advanced" dream logs. Since i write them in the morning, i'm generally tired and my writing and descriptions are lame. I'm going to try to do better. Starting now.

Last night my dream was very bizarre. It started off in an auditorium, where there were people filling about half the seats and watching people on the stage. I sat down in a seat, with some guy who apparently was my boyfriend. I look at the stage, which had turned into the floor of the gym, and these people that were wearing boots that bobsled teams wear, were jumping around the gym in strange black leotards, sort of skating/gliding along. My boyfriend then said that he was looking forward to the performance, and I nodded and walked down the aisle to an unknown location, possibly in front of the stage that had reappeared. I looked back up at my boyfriend, who was suddenly in the row one above me, despite the fact that i had just walked down about 5 rows worth, and was now standing on the base level.
Anyways, i watched as my dream boyfriend was first talking with a girl, then hugging her, then sitting and laughing with her, and then finally proceeding to draw her into a deep kiss. My friends, who had suddenly appeared next to me, asked "isn't that your boyfriend?" and I replied "I thought he was" in a completely unconcerned manner.
At some point I entered the backstage area where people in costume were running around and practicing ballet. I had a moment where I knew I was dreaming, and attempting to control my dream, I willed myself into a costume and proceeded to walk back out of the backstage area, though a small doorway in the way, that led me to the front area of the theatre, looking out at what had become packed bleachers. My friend appeared beside me and mentioned her fear of heights.
There was also something about resolving the mysterious dream-boyfriend-that-kissed-other people dilemma, but I can not recall with much clarity what occurred.

School Stress

Jun 20

I dreamed that I was going to school for the first day of Junior year, but that I had forgotten to get school supplies or finish all of my AP US history homework. I was planning how to get them done if my APUSH class was after lunch, but I didn't know my schedule. There was some confusion when I first entered the school ground, but somehow I ended up on the quad and putting my backpack down. When I later came back for it, it was opened upside down and some stuff was gone. Namely my AP work. There was some part about me running through the campus and yelling at various administrators/teachers. Nobody was helpful in my search. There was also some part about running over to Johnson park and some teachers chasing us. Lastly, my friend and I were standing on a gate by a dark park while creepy music played and the sound of spooky screaming and blood dripping sound could be heard.

Parents

Jun 19

My dream was strange and involved my mother getting divorced and having a boyfriend and my dad having a girlfriend and me having to choose between my parents. There was a large party and both parents were standing around. I was very mad at them for making my decision harder.
And then I was in school and there were all these strange things going on. Because of this, someone informed me that my mother was dead. At one point, there was a large raindrop that knocked me over, and i had trouble standing up. For some reason I was given a balloon and I was moping around carrying it. I had a moment of clear thought, where i realized i was pretending that my mother was dead, and was pretending to have to choose between my parents. But i realized that my friends were coming over to comfort me, and so i remained silent. There was also something about a bus and a school prank and me falling over in the rain (again).

(see? I fall over in the rain alot, non-existent readers. but maybe its a good thing that you don't exist. I act differently in dreams. I guess i have less peer pressure in them)

Sports and Falling Over

Jun 18

There was something about polar ears and seals and fish and how they were all disappearing.

Then there was something about the Olympics and how I was the USA runner for a baseball hitter and I failed. And then i was something else for the soccer for England and I also screwed up. There was something about people looking for Camille (a friend of mine) and Pocahontas, but since they weren't around I pretended I was them, and everyone believed me for some bizarre reason.

Then there was a part about school and dentist appointments and rain. I was waking on a slanted road and it was uphill and rainy, and I was having trouble walking straight. At the top I turned around and there were all these people looking at me strangely. I lied and told them i had a back problem, because i was embarrassed about not being able to get up once i fell over. This is a consistent theme in dreams that i have. The falling over thing i mean.

Then when nick (my brother) and I got home, our house was set up like a mystery house or a haunted house or something and it was creepy.

Lastly, there was a game of womens basketball going on and I was sitting on the hoop causing trouble for the players.

Mazes and More

Jun 11 or 12
My dream 2-3 days ago was about wanting to go to castilleja, a nearby girls private school, and something about new family members and skateboarding

My dream last night (jun 14) was about a maze, and if things wrapped around you, you had to stay in the maze, so you tried to push the random objects on other people. Then there was a prize at the end, so when I got free from the maze, I went to the clerk person, but first I had to do some strange thing that involved giving a red ticket, but I had a green ticket. Then the clerk told me to wait, and they went to go get lunch. While I was waiting, a different person had everyone sit down, at which point my spot in line was lost. I was really mad because only the first 30 people got prizes, and I yelled at the cashier for awhile, but it did no good.

Disjoined Reality

May 31, 2010

My dream started with me setting up for a performance in the theatre. Something about a bird getting loose in the theatre happened, and then I was trying to catch the bird
After that I was sitting on a bench or a railing or something and talking about camp. A man came along in a towel, for some reason or another, and then both of us were embarrassed for another unknown reason. We began walking next to each other, eventually uncovering the fact that this guy liked to talk. A lot. Eventually we came to a house and again my dream changed and I was sitting on a bed with some girl and apologizing. It was all rather nonsensical.

Alternate Realities

May 8, 2010
Somehow I was walking up a hill on a hiking trip and then I went off the path, and then returned because some little kid was in the way. There was something about my mom being killed and this guy talking about blood and salt, saying he got some salt which was bad. Then the guy was making other people do things because he was so mad about the blood/salt thing (I think this related to my mother's death). There was some point later when he was reliving the point of pain or something, and then there were things about computer screens and heroic deeds and stuff.
Anyway, eventually I met these young girls and two boys and we did something to get out of the alternate universe we were in, which resulted in them growing up in front of my eyes.
When I returned from the land where my mother was gone, I was older, but I had not lived those years during which I had been gone from my home town, since those years had been spent in an alternate reality. My home was falling apart when I got there, and everything was different. All the monkey bar slats were connected by ivy and age, which was very bizarre. I saw my mother, and mentioned the monkey bar slats, but since she had remained in this world even while I was in the other one, she did not find it weird. People were using my house lot for subsistence farming and using the playground for a preschool playground. When my friend and I walked around, we saw my mother and some people I had known a long time before, all of whom thought I had either died or disappeared (run away). There was some attack at some point but I was able to defend myself using karate moves or something. There was also mention of my family getting a dog.

Lord Of the Ringsesque

May 2, 2010
I had this dream that I was at some class and there was this professor who was surrounded by cheerleaders and some how got attacked by them. Then some character from a t.v. Series was there and she was trying to help me. There was a part when she was sitting on a log and I noticed that under the log there was a woman.
Then there was large sequence of towns that i traveled to in search of safety. Some of the towns were very grand, looking more like ancient Rome than actual towns.
At one point I was holding a ring and people were chasing after me. I climbed up a building wall and found myself with the cheerleaders again

Though I can not remember this dream in full, there is something about it that feels like it is important and has some realistic relavance.

Dreams Within Dreams

April 28, 2010
I had this dream that this person in my Spanish class was some how related to me, and as I was walking along I saw my dad teaching her to drive. I stopped him and complained that I should have taught me first, but they both sort of shrugged. I walked off and was thinking strange thoughts consisting of inconsistent facts. My mind seemed to be mad that she was taught first, because I was his daughter, so I should have been taught first. But if I was actually related to her, then it made sense because she was older. I'm not really sure if she was my sister or not.
Another part was in front of the theatre at school. It was confusing, but the basic story in that dream seemed to relate to getting publicly embarrased, telling other people about the dream above (in my dream the first dream was a dream, but my dream self thought the events of this dream were real), and following a scavenger hunt to get a hamster. It was all very confusing.

Airplanes

April 15, 2010

My dreams were very disjointed, partially because I am sick and so woke up multiple time in the night. The main theme was about being on airplane flights and having my baggae lost. Every time I would have to get it checked, they would somehow lose my luggage. There was this part about waiting in line and all the people in front of me had taken all the free items. There was also something about walking up and around in order to catch the plane because parts of the plane ticket filling out was under ground and the other parts were around the other side of a city block.

Relations

April 11, 2010

I had a dream about being in a train and I got on the wrong train and wasn't supposed to be there and something about me muttering "heir actually" when someone mentioned some inheritence. The train that I got on by accident was for royalty, but as the need came up to explain myself, I mumbled the part about me being an heir. I was the heir of some king or ruler, or at least I told people I was. Then my friend, Person A, was all surprised. My friend, Person B, was there as well, but I don't remember what was going on. I believed it was related to the fact that neither A nor B knew I was royalty, and I had always thought A and B were poor.

Enemies

April 2, 2010

Linea (a classmate of mine in real life) and I were neighbors and I said something about troubled times and she. Asked me what I would do if she was the last neighbor left and I yelled that "I would rather starve". Then there was this part with mr brigham (my old music teacher) and Whinnie (my real neighbor and random people at a block party and something about stale pieces of bread and a dirty yard. There was something about a play and acting, and something else about time portals. It was very confusing

Strange

February 13, 2010

My dream started as being in Carmel and going over to a part of our yard that I had not been in before.
Then there was this part where I was talking to this girl (who was apparently my sister) and she was telling me about her life. We were in her restaurant, and she was saying that her and her husbands plan was to get enough profit to retire. At some point there were references to her being divorced multiple times. Mom appeared later and claimed she never knew what was going on because she and Jenny (who was the girl I was talking to) never talked. This seemed odd to me since the girl was my sister apparently.

I have a lot of dreams where i have a sister, though i really don't in real life

The Long Confusing Dream

February 7, 2010

It started with this part about zombies taking over this town and I was running through back passages of these warehouses to try and escape the zombies. At one point one was chasing me and I ran down the hill and past this giant snowman and I was able to run really fast despite the fact that there was thick snow on the ground.
I was playing hockey and then I stopped and went into a more "private room" so I could just play 1 on 1 hockey, but it was basically a tiny room with a table and chairs. It connected to this loft area that was high enough up to protect against zombies and so it was safe to stay there. I was exploring the area in the loft when I realized it could be broken into via secret passage. I did some weird magic thing with my hand, but when tested only made the building weaker.
At the end of the Dream there was something about going down the highway and Trying to call out to people There was also this guy who was shouting "I gave you scorn. I gave you scorn. I gave you wetness!!" and weird things like that. And something about a train wreck.

School

January 27, 2010

I went to some school that was different than Paly (my high school) , and there was something strange that happened but I don't remember what it was
At home, there was this passage that had once allowed for slaves to go through the Underground Railroad and so mom and I did test things to try it out. It was very strange.

Weird

January 16, 2010 (dreams)

My dream was long and creepy in some parts.
One part I was in an old run down place sitting on a bench. For some reason my friend was there too, and he said something similar to "this will probably look weird to people walking by" and then we kissed. Then I was all like "that was awkward" and my friend kinda shrugged. Then someone blew up the old ruined place we were in but some guy pushed me away and saved my life. I looked for clues as to who was responsible but I couldn't figure it out. Then some other people moved in to the place (which had turned into a kinda of house for me) and various things happened.
There was some part when i was in a car and this guy was driving and then he turned and asked me out. I didn't really know him that well but I said yes.
There was some part about catching rabbits in the snow and then realizing that i had to leave the East Coast (where I mysteriously was). I sort of swung on vines of seaweed and clambered along rocks as my way of getting home.
The last few bits were about alligators in the water and other weird things like that.
At an earlier point, there was this great journey about getting somewhere and in the process there were various problems and something about ants and strange villages. It is mainly all a blur.

Heroic dreams

January 3, 2010

I had this dream that had many parts.

One part was about being at church and accidentally thinking that someone was my friend AnaCena. When she turned around she wasn't, but I talked to her anyway. Her mom told me the daughter had a disease called 'flowers' and I nodded and said that AnaCena once had that too. Then I helped put things in boxes, but I had to go to skating. The mother that I had just been talking to said I couldn't go but I ran out of the church anyway.

At this point I found a dog, a corgie, and picked it up. Some people on the street asked if it was mine but I informed them that I had only just picked it up. Later I brought it home and was teaching it tricks, when the mother of the random girl told me if I didn't find the real owner she would call the police. I told my parents of her previous crabbiness (i.e. Telling me I had to stay at church) and then the women and I argued for a bit

Then there was this part where I was some sort of magical person (as in I could sort of fly) and I was at my old elementary school. I was supposed to be looking for a person, a criminal or something, and I met a boy while I was there but did not capture him. Then I looked at the field and some fellow magic people had circled a girl and had shot a small orange ball at her which I later knew was death, or similar to a magic bullet. I sort of dove through the air and kicked her in the stomach to knock her out of the way and save her because I knew the boy was the real culprit. I apologized then asked if she could run presumably because my fellow people were going to be mad at me. We ran away for awhile.

Then I was over some sort of lava and was somehow saving people. I forget most of what happened, but there was sone part about saving people from dangerous orange drops and I risked my life and got all hurt. In the end I survived though and my friend Emma came and picked me up in her car. I explained about the crabby women, but not about the strange magicness (for some weird reason), and she and her mother made various comments. In the re-telling of the tale, it was revealed that the women was from another church and was doing some sort of fundraiser. Emma stopped by her house to pick up something but then she was both in the front and back seat at the same time. Neither of us found this odd and I remarked, to the back seat Emma, that she should have turned around while in the front seat. We, the back seat Emma and I, laughed about that

There was something else I think, but I have forgotten.
