I just had a dream about a poor young adolescent girl forced to work for some Asian mafia who tries to escape her life after meeting an outsider with a depressing past. The last shot of my dream was a one take shot of the girl fleeing the casino premises after her outsider friend essentially makes a distraction by causing a ruckus. The camera would be following the little girl but it would occasionally stop and turn sideways to show one or two people in the distance still chasing after her. You’d only get like a brief glimpse, a body running past a hallway or a pair of eyes looking through window shades. I wish this was a real movie now! Haha, and I’m sure the concept of this film has been done before plotwise, can anyone think of a movie like this?

Awwww, man! I had a dream that I went to the movies and I couldn’t decide what to see because everything currently showing was crap. But! They were showing the original Sam Raimi Spiderman and Spiderman 2 (which they mistakenly labeled “The Amazing Spider-man 2”). I asked the guy at the box office what time Spiderman was showing and he was like “What?” and I was explaining to him that the showing just said “10:00” but didn’t specify AM or PM and that was the only showing available. For some reason “The Amazing Spider-man 2” had about 10 showings that day and I remember I thought in the dream “Some people are going to think they already have the sequel to that awful reboot out already when they JUST started filming.” Needless to say, I got a completely nonsensical answer that I couldn’t understand and then I woke up lol. I checked my local theater’s schedule when I woke up but they weren’t showing Spiderman 1 or 2 =(.

The first one seemed like a totally normal dream. I was in a city with crazy ass architecture and city layout when I realized that my car had been towed because I didn’t pay the parking toll. No big deal, I asked a police officer how I could get my car back and I was off. I was with a friend and we were walking along this tube that was perilously high. My friend slipped and fell off a fucking cliff that was like… a 200 foot drop and all I remember was everyone rushing to get to my friend and then the dream ended.

The second dream was REALLY out there. Basically I was on Mars and for some reason Eli Roth - of all people - sparked a revolution by releasing all the prisoners who then overtook the planet. After things had settled, someone set off… I’m not sure what to call it, almost like a black hole that was a wall? Basically this “wall” sucked everything into it and moved across the entire planet and for the whole dream I was running away from it afraid I would die of a heart attack. By the end I was at the very end point with a bunch of people and I decided that I would rather jump into the white oblivion under my own power than get sucked in, so I jumped and then we were just kind of sitting there floating in nothingness and then I woke up.

Oh yeah, and one dream I had a few days ago was that I was on the Titanic 0_o. Yeah, that was fun /sarcasm.

I had this really weird dream where I was literally living in a gritty TV drama like Breaking Bad or Boardwalk Empire or something lol. It was like a TV show, but my real life, I don’t know how to explain it better. Like I knew it was a show that people were watching, but it was my actual life that I was living (which I guess sounds like a reality show? But I knew there were definitive seasons and story arcs going on, oh whatever…). I would alternate between playing the main character and just watching the show from a third person perspective. Christoph Waltz, Gerard Depardieu, the guy who played Merle in The Walking Dead, the guy who played the Frenchman in Inglourious Basterds, and for some strange reason Jennifer Aniston (????) were all there, and I’m sure there were others that I don’t remember. Christoph and Jennifer Aniston were on my side and by the time I woke up I was at the end of season three where my top hitman - played by Christoph Waltz - got shot in the head and Merle, Gerard Depardieu, and the French guy were now taking control of the mob from me and my guys. I have to say, it was a damn compelling drama, I wish I remembered more of the details LOL. My dreams have been getting more fucked up and esoteric as the nights pass >_>

dude its the phillippines man… nothing but bad mojo down there! lol its the Duendes man!! fuckin gnome bastards

damn, those multo be working od in your dreams O_O

You both may be onto something… Last night I had my nightmare where I’m in school but I haven’t done the homework or studied for the exams and I’m essentially having a panic attack. I hate that fucking dream!!!

Ack!! Not Chucky?! :(

I hate that little bastard!!!! I was trying to save a family from him and for some reason the view turned into like… a wide shot in a film and I went into the wrong address while I saw Chucky go into the other house and MURDER the entire family. FUCKING DREAMS!!!!!

Can anyone explain to me why since arriving in the Philippines I’ve had nothing but nightmares? Some of the things I’ve dreamed about it: zombies, aliens, school shootings, haunted houses, CHUCKY! MOTHERFUCKING CHUCKY!!!! Why can’t I get a regular night’s sleep over here???

I used to have a recurring dream where I would play basketball and completely get owned on the court. I blogged about it a few times before here on my Tumblr. I think the fact that I couldn’t play well doing one of the things I felt like I was actually good at had to do with my fear of failure/inadequacy. But now? My recurring dream is just me playing basketball and playing well. I think my subconscious is torturing me by reminding me every couple of nights that one of my favorite things to do has been taken away from me for the time being due to my knee troubles. It really sucks not being able to do the things you want to do as far as physical activity goes, so if you’re healthy please go for a run, shoot some hoops, whatever floats your boat because 1) It’s good for you and 2) Don’t take your good health for granted.

Oh mannnnnn. It was a really random dream but the details escape me right now. I feel like… it had something to do with a heist and time travel… that would make for an awesome movie actually lol. Kind of sad that I don’t remember that last one…

I’ve just been feeling so burnt out from school lately. I know there’s only 3 more weeks to go, but I have been seriously checked out for the last week. Thankfully I scored 10/10 on my assessment quiz with barely any studying and I’m pretty sure we killed our presentation, so I feel kind of good about that. I desperately needed last night to just clear my mind and relax, even if only for a short while. I don’t know what it is though… Even as I try to think positively, I can’t escape my dreams. I woke up THREE TIMES last night in a span of 6.5 hours. Once at 4, once at 7, and once at 8. And the weird/crazy part is that it felt like each dream got progressively worse and worse. It’s difficult when you feel like you can’t say everything you want to say and you’re holding yourself back. I just don’t know how much longer I can take the insidious nature of these dreams. 

Had a wild ass dream last night. So I went to bed at around 11 since I had to wake up early for clinical. The last time I checked the clock it was 11:10 and I think I fell asleep not long after. So I was dreaming and all of a sudden I was pulled out of my dream and fully conscious that I was sleeping but I couldn’t move my body. I start panicking like “OH FUCK, am I in sleep paralysis right now?” Because I know in sleep paralysis you’re aware that you’re sleeping but you can’t move your body and some people say that you get this feeling like someone is sitting on your chest, which is exactly what I felt. So I try harder and harder to wake up and eventually I wake up… BUT I’M IN ANOTHER DREAM. So I was dreaming within a dream that I was in sleep paralysis and when I woke up I was still in a dream. I have this weird numb feeling in my lower right side like it fell asleep on me but I continue on with my dream. I don’t know why but I was on the run from someone when my lower right side starts hurting again. I look and a huge amount of hives is developing on my lower right abdomen and I’m just thinking “WTF!!!???” It starts to get progressively worse and worse to the point where I couldn’t move at all and I just crawl up into a fetal position. That’s when I wake up FOR REAL and I’m sweating a little and I feel WIDE AWAKE. I feel like I’ve slept for 8 hours and I’m completely awake. That dream just really fucked me up and I’m super alert. I check the clock… IT’S 12:40 AM!!! I’ve only been asleep for an hour and a half tops! That AND I feel my lower right side… it’s numb! It fell asleep! Just like in my dream! So yeahhhhhh… that was my weird mindfuck of a dream. I hope I don’t have another one like that any time soon… I don’t think my heart can handle it >_>

So I recently talked with my friend Erik about nursing school and our future goals and what not, and he brought up something that I thought was really interesting. He said that when he graduated, he would get himself one extravagant graduation gift that he always wanted but wasn’t all that practical to have. His choice was a new motorcycle, which I thought was pretty bad ass.

I thought that was a novel idea and it reminded me of Mr. Burrows and how he said for his birthday his wife said “pick one thing that you absolutely don’t need, but always really wanted,” and Mr. B picked this HUGE barbecue grill haha. I was trying to think of what I could possibly get, but was coming up short on ideas. That’s a little sad isn’t it? I always said that my one vice when I grow older is going to be movies, but that’s something that’s already a big part of my life. What is one completely selfish materialistic desire that I would want to fulfill as a little reward after school is over?

I think I’ve mentioned this before but I love the idea of having a house to call your own, a family to come home to, and just enjoying the hell out of life with the work you do and the pleasures you seek. It may be a little traditional, it may sound kind of boring, but I always wanted that. I’ve always enjoyed the simple things in life. As Erik told me though, “It’s good to not desire materialistic things in life, but sometimes it’s okay to be a little selfish.” So as far as my one greedy, selfish materialistic desire? Well… I think I’ve finally settled on a kick ass dedicated home movie theater room. Oh mannnnnn it’s gonna be SWEET! Dream a little with me people!

I had a dream that my whole block was on fire. It was pretty damn crazy to say the least. And this was one of those dreams where you don’t realize you were dreaming until you wake up too. Sometimes you can realize you’re dreaming and even though crazy shit is happening you’re okay with it, not so in this case. The last thing I remember was driving away in my van before it caught fire and then I woke up.

I think I had this dream because I’ve just been in sort of panic mode recently with school starting and feeling inadequate (that whole inferiority complex). Whereas before when I felt this way I would go all out into studying, almost obsessively, now I sort of wonder if I’m up to this monumental task ahead of me or if I’m good enough. I’ve never been the confident type, I’ve always felt I had to compensate for my shortcomings, both actual and perceived.

I often have trouble sleeping and its been that way since like middle school or early high school. I just lie in bed for hours and my thoughts tend to go to extreme scenarios where I think one negative thought that eventually leads to another. I try so hard to curb that kind of thinking, but when you’re alone with nothing else to do but lie there and be alone with your thoughts it can be an arduous task.

I think that I’ve let my fears hold me down and keep me back from doing everything that I want to do in life. That’s one thing that has always scared me, the thought that when I die I won’t be able to say that I lived my life to the fullest or the way that I truly wanted to live. I’m sure a lot of us have said to ourselves “I’ll get to that later” or “there’s still plenty of time for that,” but it just makes me sad that a lot of the times that we say those things we never get to do what we say we will “when there’s time.” It’s that one bit Tom Cruise says in Collateral that still sticks out in my mind, it haunts me:

“‘Someday? Someday my dream will come? One night you’ll wake up and you’ll discover it never happened. It’s all turned around on you and it never will. Suddenly you are old. Didn’t happen and it never will because you were never gonna do it anyway.”

I don’t want that to be me…

I had my first cool dream in a while! I had a dream that I was friends with Harry, Ron, and Hermione from Harry Potter (obviously, where else would that trio of names be from? lol) except Harry Potter was REAL and the books were really nonfictional events that actually happened. THAT was pretty AWESOME! Haha
