are an extremely fascinating thing. We all dream, even if we are not aware of it. JM sent me this link:
http://www.dreammoods.com/dreaminformation/dreamtypes/
and I read the link, obviously. I attempted to remember some of my dreams. When I did, I proposed that I recount them to you. Okay, here's one of my dreams.
"Build Additional Pylons".
So In this dream, it's rather weird, because I'm playing a game of starcraft. I'm purple, and I'm playing zerg in this screwed up version of Bloodbath, where random cliffs are everywhere. I have a Terran ally who has a much larger base then me with 2 expos, and he's teal. I sent my guardians in for the win. Okay, the view shifts and this time I'm playing Terran for an obscure reason in a screwed up version of Boxed In. So I sent them to the middle of the map and I saw many overlords there, so I attempted to shoot them. But all these guardians came and owned all my marines so I decided to send in a Devourer i had for some reason. And there was a teal firebat in my base...I have no idea why, frankly. So I kill all the overlords and guardians with a single devourer and then these firebats with demon wings come and kill my devourer. Then I'm told to build additional pylons.
That whole dream was fuzzy, I have to say. Here's another for your amusement.
"The Famine."
As I recall, in this dream, it starts off somewhere. I have no idea where, but I know it's Christmas. So I'm standing in this room and everyone is dressed in santa costumes, and they're playing a version of Jingle Bell rock and pulling party crackers and stuff.
However, I had only had 1 (ONE!) bowl of rice for dinner, so I was feeling pretty hungry when I went to bed, so when I felt hungry my dream started to screw up.
There was a huge famine in my dream, and everybody was starving to death. I was like: "Urrgh, I'm hungry." and it was pretty terrifying.
My dream switched, and I was standing on a beach, where the waves were crashing. So these giant snake worm things come out of the sea, and I'm not surprised for some reason. I climb into my family car and wait for my mum and dad to come back. I can see them on the beach. However, I realise that instead of being friendly, these giant sea snake-worm things had come to eat the people on the beach! They were starving due to the great famine, which I think was caused by overfishing. So everyone was screaming and these worms rampaged up the beach, causing devestation in their wake. They grabbed one person and flung him up into the air, then swallowed him/her right down. In their wake there was this huge tsunami, and I'm screaming at my parents to get back into the car but they couldn't hear me.
Then the dream ended. What a weird dream.
So, lucid dreaming is a very interesting concept. I occasionaly have a lucid dream! Sometimes, however, I know it's a dream. I'm like, hey, this is a dream! However, I can't do anything to change the course of it's flow. My mind can't wrap around the concept that it's a lucid dream and I can do something to control it. However, when i can, it's awesome! I flew into the sky once. And then I met the artist of Eyeshield 21! It was AWESOME.
Well, that's all for now. Hope those other guys say something.

"I on the other hand have below average dream recall. I think. My most interesting dream was where our house was in the exact layout of before renovation, but it was all renovated, just the layour was the same. And it was interesting. Okay, my comment isn't interesting, but whatever."
JM: Go my dream recall skills! I would recount my dreams here, but I had already done so in my BLOG
So I won't tell you it. Dreams are awesome. I never know that I'm 'in' a dream.
I've been having a shitload of mundane dreams. It's kind of weird.
ReplyDeleteThere was this one, where I was sitting in a C-block english room, with my electric guitar and amp, and a class of 30. They were watching me play guitar. I played the solo to Stairway to Heaven, because I'm such a cliched bastard. People applauded me a bit, until I got to a bit which I couldn't play properly. Then, I was like: "wtf I know the stairway solo back to front and front to back this can't be happening." Then I woke up, and went to pee. Later that day, I found that I actually couldn't play that part competently fast enough.
The next night, after some hardcore computer maintenence, after some hardcore dota, I dreamed that I was in the lobby of BA, and DL was telling me to host warlok yung. I said "No". I woke up, and went to the washroom.
The next night, after doing some more hardcore computer maintenence, ie, system restore which took 6 hours, I dreamt that I was doing ANOTHER system restore. Looking at my screen, I was like, "Aww, hell no!". Then I woke up. The dream was about five seconds. Unlike the other two times, I just went back to sleep.
Unfortunately, my streak of mundane and boring dreams was broken last night, because something was on fire, only briefly. I forgot why.
