Dream 1 Okay the first dream I had when I was taking a long nap. It first started out I was like in this giant hotel, and we were like on a scavenger hunt or something. It was me, some of my family and a bunch of other people. And my mother was upset with me because when we were playing bowling and I wasn’t very goods at it. Then we were in my AP psyche class and we were suppose to present our dream journal projects, and I was distressed because I wasn’t ready and I thought we were presenting another day. Also we all had to bring in some object to represent our dreams. Someone brought in a rocking horse. Then we were in the same room but everyone was on computers, and then some went wrong with the computer system and suddenly what I had on my monitor came up on everyone else’s monitor. Which was embarrassing (not because I was watching internet porn XP ) But because I was on an online journal/blog. That was just very personal. And everyone started asking me questions and messing with my inbox
. Then I was just wandering around school, and then a bunch of real-estate agents started coming up to me and tried to sell me these apartment buildings. I told them “I might just buy a nice block/pavement of sidewalk. Maybe a piece that got some sun.” And then I was a vampire and I was wandering around and jumping on top of buildings collecting little blue orbs. (Like the lives of a thousand God, in Ninja Gaiden and if you get nine of them you get an extra health bonus) So ya because then I was in the game and jumping around all ninja like. (I hadn’t actually played that game in a few days, but I was thinking about playing it if I ever got some free time) Then I was somewhere with someone and I asked to borrow there cell phone because the sunset was pretty and I wanted to take a picture of it. But I had to take two pictures because there were two suns. Then I was lying on the ground, just thinking, or chilling I guess. And someone yelled at me and said I had to go to school that way, or I had to go through the mirror, or go through the bush or something. So I got in a line and we all went through these two arched shaped bushes in a single filed line, and we were all going across the street to school. Then I woke up
Dream 2- The next dream I can’t remember as well, I was in this farm with a bunch of other people. And we were doing farm work or something. It was like we were building this new building or a new school. And then my elementary school teacher came up and told me all the bands she thought were bad.
Dream 3- Then a few days later I dreamt I was getting ready for graduation. And in 8th grade we had to make these locker pictures where we got like 16 small slots and we put small pictures that we liked in the slots. Only we had to make one that had like 1000 slots and I had to find one thousand pictures and I was rushing around the house and filing through newspapers because I needed to find pictures to fill all of the slots. Then I was in a hotel, pool but the locker rooms were like a maze and I was like okay where do I go? Then I was in the middle of a dark forest at night with a small creek with everyone else and we were getting ready for graduation because it was about to start.
Dream 4- The next dream started when I was at home and I was up all night trying to upload photos on to my ipod, but it wasn’t working and I was like all man, this sucks. But then I think I was able to get it to work. Then I was in the middle of the prairie, and there were these big travel busses like two I think, and on the back of them was Chillingworths face (from the scarlet letter) and it was like staring at me, and all the busses said Chilingworth underneath his face. We had just finished reading the scarlet letter in my humanities class. Then I got into town and it was like a western town. (Like from the days of the wild west) And did some weird stuff there, like talk about books and how the 8th Harry Potter book ruined the series (an 8th book?) We tried to throw a party, because we bet some other guys we could throw a better party then them, and they both kind of failed. I think that’s when we started talking about books. Then I had gone outside and did something, it was like I was flying but not exactly, like I was on a zip line and it was pretty cool because I was in the Chinatown part of the western town and I was zipping/zooming/flying past all these really cool colored lanterns. Then I was at my cousin’s house. And it was like huge and so I was just exploring the house and getting a little lost. Then my cousins and I watched an R rated movie even though we weren’t suppose to. We thought when we were done we could just put the movie back where it was but then we couldn’t find it and we started to get worried that we might get caught. Then I woke up.
Dream 5- The next dream again was hard to follow there was more but to hard to really describe something about being chased through a veterans memorial education/museum. And Fairly Odd Parents before Timmy was born/ in the past and on another planet, then there was something about a bridge and I almost fell off, then I was like in ancient Egypt, and I was in a pyramid that I had to escape from then. I was back in the present and it was like Christmas eve or something because there was snow on the ground and there were kids making a snowman actually it was kind of funny they actually made this giant 20ft snowman, then it collapsed and I though it was funny, then I got these really cool earrings. I was wandering around the mall looking for alcohol to clean my ears with.
Dream 6 -The dream I had last night, was “I woke up” and it was like 7:50 and I was like crap I’m late for school, and I ran out of the woods ( I was like in a cottage in the woods) And I ran to school, and I ran past a house where there was a person with a bunny rabbit. When I came to school it looked old and foreboding/felt that way as well. It felt like it was similar to mental institute in Oregon where one flew over the cuckoos took place ( I had watched it the night before) Then I was online on a forum, and someone had talked about heir rabbit and I thought it was the same person that I ran by earlier on my way to school. Then I had “woken up” I was still dreaming, but I woke up and it was really weird because I was lying in the middle of a nice room, with hardwood floors and I had a white blanket over me. But I had no idea where I was I was in someone else’s house. I had gotten up to explore to find out where I was. When I heard voices through the door. The people that lived there were coming in, and I was like I have to hide. So I hide under the blanket. And the people came in, they were young the same age I am. And some girl came into the room and lifted the blanket off me. And was about to ask, what I was doing there. But then I woke up for real. And fortunately I wasn’t late for school. Blah school
Interpretations hmmmm, I really don’t ever really think about interpreting my dreams because I don’t think it could really change anything and I’ll always have random dreams and they’re more just kind of observations of my life. I don’t want to say they’re meaningless, I just don’t really think about them a whole lot. But I’ll give it a try. Well I’m looking at the dream dictionary paper that you gave us the first symbol I recognized was the bridge and the one I almost fell off in dream 5. It says Bridge- A transition or transformation. Crossing a boundary or getting from one situation to another. A place where change takes place. My almost falling off could reflect my fear of change or fear of getting caught in-between transitions, never quite making it to the other side. Reflecting this into my life I think this refers to this being my last year of high school, and thinking about going to college. And the fear of graduating high school but not getting accepted into college. The almost falling off the bridge could also be used to suggest I harbor a secret lust for danger. Of course maybe not so secret sometimes I fantasize driving insanely fast, and I think it would be awesome to go sky diving. I also love 4-wheeling. But anyways the whole college thing seems even more so an underlying fear in dream 3 when I am rushing to get ready for graduation. Also the forest in the paper (not packet because you hate that word I read in the psych group, which is really weird because it secretly really is a packet) is said to represent: being confused or lost. Difficulty in finding a solution or thinking out a situation or thinking out a situation. I think it is because getting ready for college and filling out my applications is always in the back of my mind, a secluded recess of my mind keeps counting down the days. And I keep thinking to myself that I need to get my applications filled out. But how can I possibly think about college work when my high school teachers keep giving me assignments, oh woe is me.
And the paper even has a definition of graduation-Ready to move on to next stage of life. I think in the dream I am preparing for graduation, but have not graduated means, that I am not ready for graduation or the sudden change and maybe I need to get ready for it. Then in paper looking at the farm in dream 2 it says the farm applies to remoteness, security calm or work. Hmm well it could have meant remoteness or desolation, but I was with a bunch of other people. Or maybe it could be alienation and desolation inside of society. But it could also mean work because we were building something. Working for something new, or a new chance or beginning. Probably refers to my school work, or my ever failing attempts to seek employment
.
The sunny sidewalk, and laying on the ground in dream one probably emphasizes my want to just lay down on cold cement on those sunny summer days. Not really needing much just some rest. Not caring for the apartments or the big important things. Just trying to be easygoing or trying to be relaxed, trying not to think too much about the ever pressing “big” issues. In the scarlet letter Chilingworth knows the truth of Dimensdales identity in the scarlet letter. The way his gaze seemed to linger on me. May be something saying, I know you didn’t really read the whole book, you just read the cliff notes. ( I don’t know what your talking about *tried to look innocent*) Or maybe it’s something else somebody may know of me. Hmm? The dream about my psyche class probably just represents the day early and thinking about having to do the essay and the dream journal.
I think that is enough, got some hypothesis of maybe the main points of my dreams.
Woot over 2000 words I think this is the longest essay I’ve written. (And it only took two days too)
