dream-about-murder-and-panic-attack
Baby
Backpack
Sex
Police
Boyfriend
Bathroom

Dream

i got this new boyfriend (he is my in real life crush) and we had sex at my house and then decided to go out to the city. we wanted to go shopping so i put on easy to take off clothes and a backpack (i dont usually bring backpacks, only regular bags) we walked by this one shop in which i know the owner and i decided to say hi and then quickly look around the store. my dream boyfriend looked uncomfortable. i then went to the bathroom since the bathroom stalls were for some reason also the changing rooms and they were unisex so my boyfriend waited in the stall next to mine. mind you this is a more expensive store. idk how it lead to this but my boyfriend told me in private that he had murdered a baby in the garage of this store earlier and that he does not like being in here since he is on the run but has not yet been identified. when i asked him why he killed a baby he said it annoyed him and he decided to take and kill it. i pretended to be okay with it but i was petrified of him. then the police came and said, if anybody wants to see the crime scene, the garage is open. we just couldnt touch or change anything. they said they had already removed the corpse and there was only blood left. i decided to go take a look while my boyfriend was in the stall and didnt see me and once i saw the amount of blood i made a run for it and started sprinting towards this half wall thing where i hid behind and had a panic attack. shortly after he found me and told me he collected my things from my stall and consoled me. i asked him if the baby being annoying was really the only thing that made him do this and he said yes. then i asked him what if i annoyed him, if he would also hurt me and then i woke up.

Backpack
Falling
Flying
Lake
Water

Dream

My dream began with me having to fight my clone in an arena. I realized that what I had to do to beat him, was to identify, face and overcome my biggest fears and weaknesses because that’s what my clone wouldn’t be able to do. I succeeded and made it through the arena. As I left the arena the number 222 came up. I Had a dream that I was Ang the Avatar from the last Airbender. I was joining a friend of mine flying in an Canyon and flying over a pretty lake that’s within the canyon. My friend had a hanglider kite he was going to fly with and I was going to use mine as well, along with my airbending skills. Before I prepared to fly The backpack I had on Fell down the canyon and I decided to dive get it and then begin to fly once I caught it. It was a thrill to chase the backpack and save it before hit the ground because it was getting to become a close call. Down in the canyon, it was a little dark and I thought I was above the lake, but the lake had tried out so when I stopped flying, I thought it was over water, but I wasn’t and I continued to fall down further I didn’t have a reaction time to save myself before hitting the ground, but bender was able to save me from hitting the ground by using this earth bending and water bending moves to cushion my fall.

dream-about-final-exam-and-mom
Backpack
Exam
New Friend
School

Dream

today's drean was about me taking my final exam in french at 10pm. it was already a repetition test as i'd failed the actual french exam (mind you, in real life i passed the french test so the repetition test was never needed) and i hung out with a new friend (i do not know her in real life) and i was just talking to her about deep topics. i kept looking at the time and made sure i dont come late. we continued talking and at some point her mom came who looked alternative and she gave us advice on our topic which i do not remember. when she was leaving i shouted "love you, mama!" and she looked back and said "no you don't!". i was a bit taken aback by this but my friend told me this was just something her mom did as you cant love someone you had just met. interesting way of sending that message tho. so fast forward i look at the time and it's 9.32pm. i jump up and suddenly i'm at home and no longer with her and im packing my school stuff in the biggest hurry of my life. i had checked if there were any available ubers right before packing and there was one resting in front of my house apparently. so i packed my backpack , checked the app again and now it looked totally different, the only ubers were like 7-10 minutes away and the closest one just went on break. there was no way i could've arrived on time. then i woke up.

dream-about-marching-in-forest
Army
Backpack
Gun
Stranger
Sister
Forest

Dream

We were walking somewhere on a muddy trail through an unfamiliar forest. It reminded me of a road march in the Army, but I was no longer in the Army. I was marching with a bunch of strangers. I think we were in a national forest somewhere. We were reaching the end of our destination. We stopped the march for a break and I decided to take my shoe shining kit and my gun cleaning kit out of my backpack; I wanted to shine my boots. Because I wanted to look nice when we arrive. I took off my favorite green combat boots that I love. One of the guys with whom I was marching saw that I was wearing green combat boots and came over to me and asked me if I was a veteran. I told him that I was and I was proud when I was saying that. Then he saw my weapon cleaning kit and he asked me if my sister got it for me. Somehow he knew that my sister served in the military. I was a little jealous that a stranger would think that the weapon cleaning kit would belong to my sister and not to me. I told him that no I got it myself because I was in the military too not just my sister. The guy nodded and looked like he was impressed with my green jungle combat boots. I told him I used to wear them when I was a young soldier and he complimented me for wearing them.

dream-about-witnessing-a-murder-in-a-hotel
Backpack
Gun
Police
Dog
Hotel
Pool

Dream

I was in a really nice hotel for a convention event. I was down at the pool, meeting up with people I didn't know who were also attending the event, and getting ready to play some sort of card game, when David Tennant, dressed as Crowley from Good Omens, and Catherine Tate joined the group. Unfortunately, I had to leave just then because I had to drive back to my hometown to pick up my best friend who doesn't like driving outside of town. When we got back to the hotel, she hopped in the shower. I was wandering around the (very nice) room waiting for her to finish freshening up so that we could rejoin the pool group. I looked out the balcony after grabbing my personalprotection items -- a sonic buzzer and a pepper spray canister -- off of my backpack where they were hooked on. (The backpack was grey, and the sonic buzzer was a grey camo). There was a security officer for the event with a K-9 companion patrolling the catwalk right by my balcony, keeping an eye on the event. The K-9, and German Shepherd, gently got the officer's attention. I remember thinking he was very cute and sweet with his companion. He was asking if the dog was hungry, since it was the end of their shift. As the officer spoke with the dog as if I wasn't right there, I remember getting a really bad feeling. I looked at him thinking, "he's going to die, isn't he? This is when he's killed" He knelt down to be at eye level with his K-9 companion; he was petting him and cradling his face. I noticed a "thwip" sort of sound first, then the warm mist that hit, the way the officer just kind of froze up before collapsing from an angled gunshot wound to the head -- a sniper round. The K-9 looked around. My first thought was "grab your backpack so it doesn't get stained", but as I reached for the handle I realized it was now part of a crime scene and removing it for any reason would be tampering. Someone from the other end of the catwalk was talking. Asking questions about collateral damage? I hadn't really been listening. I told my friend to stay in the bathroom, do not open the door, as I pulled my cell from my back pocket and dialed 911. A man in a janitorial onesie stepped out from the catwalk with a sniper rifle at his side. I bolted for the elevator while I waited for the phone to connect. The shooter was talking to me now. All I remember was him saying something about speaking to the officer before, but the question ultimately was addressed to me (as i was now his next target, since I'd witnessed the assassination). "911. What's your emergency?" The elevator doors opened and I fell in. I started pressing the 'door close' button repeatedly. "I just witnessed a murder and the sniper is after me now. I need you to send help to the hotel or I'm going to die. I don't know what to do, where to hide...." The sniper stepped around the corner at the other end of the hallway. And then I woke up from a full body shiver.

Dream

Can you help me understand my dream? Dream “My city left and came back with great distain” I was looking through Maia‘s things (my sister) because I had forgotten the papers that I needed to get my plane ticket and I misplaced my check bag. I had just found my carry-on where I left in the workshop room after I said goodbye to everyone I forgot my stuff. Luckily my phone was in there. It was my pink over the shoulder back like the very small purse that I have IRL. I was hanging out with Caroline Mroz (very old friend from 6th grade) and she fell asleep on me and I didn’t wanna move and wake her up but I kept doing that and then finally I left - the room - a big stadium where we were watching a show -and she wasn’t feeling well. Caroline represents someone who is very fickle to me, someone constantly dissatisfied. I had to catch a plane at 8 o’clock in the morning And I kept being like ‘whew’ what a way to start your day In Real life I thought that it was Monday, woke up a bit because the doorbell rang irl, but it’s Sunday (irl) I was running really late because I misplaced my luggage and I had to retrace my steps. I taken a cab there and it was a school. so back from Maia‘s room and my mom‘s house to the workshop room through like a lot of hallways down into the basement. Well first I had to go through the gym and all the big rooms. Oh A girl was playing the piano and it was like sounded like rain or something- a lot of like little notes, and the teacher was like ‘this music in the background is supposed to be able to place you.’ He asked ‘you’re gonna do that?’ and she was like yes she was like this is the piece - she was determined and The teacher said her playing was like a tarantula 😂and like he was implying that she was just dumb- like naturally gifted and didn’t really practice so her technique was really sloppy. (This was kind of me irl in my early 20s playing flute at uni.) But he made her change. He said he said no u cannot do that. It was the wrong background music choice for the group. She was playing the music for the dancers and they were having weird like AI hands and feet that weren’t right. They were just missing fingers and toes and stuff was weird. So they were practicing and they were standing in line to practice moves There was several of them doing like practicing a move at the same time and there were different groups doing different moves and using different equipment and I was like running kind of slow motion -kind of- I was trying not to get in the way, but I was so late, trying to re-trace my steps And then I had to get to the basement where I was dropped off before from the camp and I got into the basement room I Remember when I got dropped off with the cab or before that one friend gave me these papers that would get me my plane ticket like they had paid for it for me and Once I got out of the cab or like once I left them, I realized that I didn’t have my bags so Iwent back into the work room The workshop thing we were doing or learning There was a point when I went until like the transportation room -an area in the basement where they had a lot of, I don’t know industrial things. like there’s a big door with like big plastic things, and I had to move to get in And I thought I left my papers there because my suitcase wasn’t there. I like put the papers down looking for my suitcase and it wasn’t there. I looked at a picture, a photograph and it was all these people I knew posing in a group For me. I think it was a celebration for me but I couldn’t attend so I wasn’t there. There was 2 big guys who looked like Stefan (my boyfriend irl), one I had dated before I met Stefan. I was feeling like a little like I missed them. They hadn’t lost weight like Stefan had. I wondered if they liked their bodies more than Stefan- he hates his irl.

Dream

The black library I was in a black library on the attic on top of a Victorian house, the library have a lot of bookshelf with old fancy books, and the library was very luxurious and elegant. I remember there was a 7 feet tall women trying to kill me, but she Dissapeared and I ended up in this attic. I heard sounds coming downstairs, I cautiously checked the stairs and there was none, there was also a dark saferoom on the left that can only be entered by crawling because the entrance is really small. I checked the room and there was really nothing special, just a few pens, then I went to one of the library shelves and met my friend Qhaiz, who is searching for Japanese books. Qhaiz told me that there are a comfy place to hangout and there is also a lot of people there, I went to the place, it had short fences to indicate sections of the comfort place, in every section was a comfy pillow, there was also desks with computers that we could play with, I played with Qhaiz and my other friends there too. My dad came to the attic to pick me up to go home, I need to obey my father, my father asked where is my backpack, I was confused, but then my backpack suddenly appeared at the wall, and I pointed at the appeared backpack, so I said my goodbyes, and went home with my father. I reached home and watched some videos with my phone, in the afternoon, there was a report that I need to go to school, I was ready to go, but my father is super slow and doesn't care about my schedules, I complained my father to my mother, it didn't really work and I was late 3 hours to school because of father.

Festival
Flat tire
Stalker
Hug

Dream

Emiy and I were on a trip at a hot springs resort or something, and for some reason someone had gotten along of her number. She didn’t want to talk to anyway and felt she almost had a stalker. One evening we showed up to our room and there was a very robust woman in there who seemed obsessed with Emily and was hugging and kissing her. Emily politely turned her down. Emily was mad at mom for some reason about everything and got a hose and playfully sprayed her down, but it wasn’t mom but jean luc picard from the enterprise. He was scrunching his face as the water was sort of painful and was shivering after in his uniform, but then seemed ready to play whatever game they were playing. At another point, I was on my computer and this porn site filled my computer with spam that I couldn’t close fast enough. I didn’t want anyone to see my screen. I had ridden my bike into some sort of downtown festival with Emily. I thought a man behind me was trying to pickpocket my backpack. Then i noticed my tires were out of foam. I ran into salvador senior (salvadors dad) on a trail and gave him a hug and asked him about my tires. He said they were flat but he would come meet me and fix them. I was so happy and hugged him again.
