Dream

I was at my grandparents and they bought me a hamster and a dog. We played with the hamster a lot. We hugged it and showed him around the house. We also talked a lot. It was very nice. Then I had to leave and take the hamster with me. It was not the same when I was alone in the house. I felt guilty for wanting it. I wanted to return it but I couldn’t so I just hugged it and layed on the floor. Then the scene changed. I was about to have an exam. The teacher called us to her desk and told us that we will have to speak on 4 subjects. Some got exited and I got very worried because I didn’t know them and I prefer writing over speaking. The teacher got mad. She told me I was never ready and that I never study. I friend of mine tried to help me and explained that I’m just shy and find it hard to do this things. We didn’t have the exam. The teacher told us to get prepared for the ext time. Then I was in a shower room, I was covered in salt so I had to take a shower. After that I stopped the water on the faucet but the water began to come out of the next one. I went to stop it and it went to the next one. After I stopped all of them I went to the sports room and I was walking just behind one on my classmate and behind me was a boy. We all sat down in a circle. The teacher came and started screaming at me. She told me I was late again and that I should leave. I started explaining that I was on time but my voice was very low. The boy that was behind me told her the same and then she listened and left me alone. After that the scene changed. I was in a winter villa waiting to get a massage. I went out for a walk when a big insect came and told me I have to hide. There were other bad ones, wasp looking insects that eat people. Do the good insect swallowed me and a bunch of other people to help us escape. He then spit us out.

Dream

I was starting my course at university. It was the first day and I was finding out about the course. I found out that we had to do a test that I didn't understand the point of. For the test we had to answer a question but the answer only had to mean yes or no but had to be presented as an essay. I didn't understand the point of it so I was trying to tell the teacher that I don't understand but he wasn't listening to me. When I left the class I felt that I didn't want to do the course anymore because it was stupid. I went on a walk around campus and I ended up climbing up some hills but it was misty so I couldn't see the skyline very far. When I was walking back I walked near some shops and the library. Some girl came up to me and asked me if I wanted to meet in the evening. I said yes then I laid down ont he bench. When I was laying there two Asian girls laid down besides me and they started stroking me hair and asked me if I wanted to meet with them in the evening. I thought they were really attractive so I said yes and they left but then I felt bad because I said to both the girls that I would meet them and I couldn't meet them all at once but I wanted to see them all because they were all attractive.

House

University

Dream

I dreamt I was applying to join some sort of modelling agency, and there was a written exam to get in. The exam was being held in my own house, which was very old and in need of repair, and very sparsely furnished. The person giving the test was a lawyer, and the other three applicants were a Hollywood actress and two university graduates (I have never completed any studies after highschool, other than a handful of community college or online courses). So I was feeling exposed in that they were all successful and seeing my shabby house, my obvious lack of material success; and apprehensive that I was about to be exposed futher as less educated. And then the first question on the exam was nonsensical, barely-formed phrases that gave no instruction whatsoever. There were computer monitors in front of the other three applicants at their desks, but I didnt have a desk or computer, i had to perch on stool behind the actress and read her monitor over her shoulder. The lawyer in charge spoke confusingly, indicated that this was a creative writing task, then told us to begin. He started a timer, and words started flashing by on the monitors. So I just copied down as many words from the monitor as I could, knowing that I was doing the incorrect thing but angry that the instructions were so bad, plus anxious because the other three seemed to understand the task. The timer went off and the lawyer asked each person to show or read aloud their answers. They had all creatively answered the written (nonsensical) question, using the words on the monitors. The actress boasted that the written question was just how movie directors communicated, so of course she understood it easiy. I was getting increasingly angry, and by the time it was my turn to reveal my answer, i was furious. I reprimanded the lawyer for this unfair and unclear test. They all argued with me and that only made me angrier. I stood up and waved my paper at them, shouting about how I had done the only logical thing, how unfair and restrictive this test was, if only crrtain groups could even understand the task. I felt proud of myself for making a good point and showing them their unfairness, but frustrated that they didn't care and had no ability to empathise, to see another point of view.

Dream

I had a dream i was giving an exam to my students and icwanted everyone to be able to finish. So i waited tovl everyone finishes but that meant we went over time, my students missed their busses home even though everyone got to complete the exam. I was scolded by the school bus coordinator and mocked me for saying “ i lost track of time” - the dream goes on many years later where i have a room that is almost like a archeological site. I went with many students who were stuck there under stones and water. In an effort to go back i learn the studentd are still alive and have not even aged even thougg its been almost 10yrs. I go with vance to uncover the the site. We try and be inconspicuous but are then followed by a man asking a lot of questions. I try and be friendly, but vance doesn’t speak to him at all. As we go to the dig site we see the area has been remodeled into a modern basement and the anxient site is behind a door. Behind the walls. We precariously avoid being detected. We get to the door and i know how to open it but its going to take time blowing away sand from a crack in the door.

So, I asked my maternal uncle's wife for earphones. I used the earphones, ear buds, okay. And I put it near the side table of her bed. So, we went to my maternal uncle's house through the train. And the next day, I woke up and saw a lot of people was outside the house going somewhere. And there was most of the people were guys or boys. And they were dressed up so nicely. Like, most of the boys were wearing white hoodies, baggy jeans, wearing glasses with skateboards and headphones, grey headphones. And they were looking so cool. I remember one of them, okay. Then, I suddenly was in my 9th grade class, okay. There were my English teacher and science teacher of my 9th grade. And I was giving the exam of my dream college, okay. I already, in real life, already gave my exam. So, I was giving my exam and most of the questions, I remember, they were the same for my real life. And it did not went so well. It was so not so easy, the questions were. So, I was giving my exam and suddenly at the end of the exam, I realized that I made a lot of mistakes in the question paper. Instead of filling the colour of the answer, I ticked it. So, I called my science teacher and she started looking at what I did my mistake. She asked a question. Like, there was a question. Then, I ticked Kaveri. So, I ticked the answer Kaveri. It was wrong, but Kaveri's T was right. So, I corrected it and showed it to the teacher. She said that it was okay. Then, she gave me a new question paper. Then, I started, her disease, unfortunately, I started doing the paper again. Then, my English teacher came and she said, I noticed that in my new question paper, the answer is already there. I was so happy in doing more fastly. Then, my English teacher came and she noticed too. She said, you do not copy. I said, no, no, I haven't copied. Then, I started hurrying, but I got new paper. So, I got extra time to complete my paper. I was very happy that I got extra time and others were studying. So, after some time, I went to my, again to my, then we have to go somewhere.

Then, I went to my grandparents' house to take my apartment key. I knocked the main gate, but nobody answered. My maternal uncle took my keys. I saw him through the window. I saw him through the window and he was in there, but not his face. He took my keys and then started going through the room. Then, I suddenly saw a big red cow with horns. It was a very big cow. I started scared and running away. The cow started chasing me, chasing me. The cow literally chased me for three times. Then, I was not having enough time. So, there was a guy going through that road. He was wearing a beanie cap and was riding bicycle. So, I told him, please help me. The cow is chasing me. So, he helped me. I told him only to let me cross the road, but he was a kind guy. So, he let me. So, he took me to the station. He was wearing a beanie cap and he was very kind. Then, I saw him in my dream twice. He was going somewhere. He was looking very pretty. I don't know why. I started calling him British Fish. Even his name is not fish. I saw him also in the car. He was going somewhere. So, anyways, I went to the station. I got my keys. Then, I went to my stay to go to my apartment. Then, I met my cousin's sister.

I need to tell you this dream app is on the side sure side of having crazy dreams It is like a repeat of the Awesome and Explorable places far away places that I so desperately crave and love 💕 so much. From the daring rocky waters and the cityscapes and boat trips and the machines that have Diet Coke and the shopping malls of many places where I shop to get ice cream and the many destinations and restrooms and locker rooms and spas in the airports and remembering my school exams in school on the last days I think its infinitely poetically administratively clear and positively so due to the fact I miss people treating me well and getting over obstacles and shopping for video 🎮 I miss my old life and soon I promise it will happen. I'm going to overcome this and turn it into a great adventure with the dinosaurs 🦕 🦖 I’m listening to Jurassic park at 3:33 am now that’s a sign and I’m happy.

Dream

Dream I was walking up garden which was different to my current garden and one I was not familiar with. At the end of my garden were some friends and family. As I got to the group of people I realised that somebody was sitting in my recliner chair and they did not move from it. I did not sit down and just talked four a while. I then decided to walk back down my garden to my house and could hear my neighbour with a machine except that he was on the wrong side of the fence. I then realised he had been into my garden and covered it in water as there were large puddles everywhere. I was not happy with this. I continued to walk and was then in a warehouse as an employee and somebody was asking me questions about bikinis that were hanging on the wall. I did not know the answers so I guessed . A man who also worked there walked up beside me and said well done for guessing the answers. I was still in the warehouse but then suddenly I was sitting at a table doing an exam. There were people sitting at my table and I was concentrating. Somebody then became disruptive and started talking loudly. They announced that the exam was finished and I remember looking down at my paper and making a decision to start writing messy which I did. People laughed at my messy hand writing but were also interested in it. I left the warehouse. I was then watching a television show but not through a television I was actually there. It was about a fearless warrior knight who was female and on horseback. She was going around killing people with a bow and arrow. Eventually she got surrounded and hit by an arrow herself. As she died she pulled the arrow from her stomach and threw it over her shoulder into one of her attackers who also died. I then took her place and was escaping the scene as myself although nobody could see me and I was not dressed as a knight, I saw a slide in a playground and climbed the ladder, as I climbed the ladder it became enclosed and I couldn’t reach the top so I came back down. Once off the ladder I realised I was barefoot so started to look for shoes , I found two but they did not match so I continued to look for shoes which I could not find. As I continued to walk I was then at a train station watching somebody having a job interview but outside. They were asked some questions but simply left. High above them were portraits of people I understood that used to work at the train station. I followed the person who had left into a room and they stood against the wall. Another person appeared who was a drug dealer talking on a telephone to somebody else being really nice to them and suddenly threatening them for money. There were two others who laughed at the person being threatened. The drug dealer put down the phone and we all walked away, I did not feel in any danger. A friend of mine from my golf club was now walking with us and he gave me two twenty piece coins which I accepted. I was now in my hometown walking ahead of the group after announcing I was going home. I turned around and saw that one of the three people had stabbed one of the three people and remember thinking they deserved it. The person was not quite dead and I remember watching them get stabbed multiple times more and I could see the blood. I was not scared that somebody had been murdered. As they were dragging the. Body to bury it one of them called out to me to move position so that they were not in direct light and therefore couldn’t be seen. I done as I was asked I woke before I made it home
