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.
