Dream

I was trying to order Chinese food but due to the language barrier they mistook extra hot with extra sauce. I tried to emphasize I want extra hot and they fixed that part but continued having trouble with the fact that I wanted medium sauce. I considered ordering light sauce just to prevent having really soupy food, but I was afraid it would be too dry.

Dream

(I had multiple dreams last night. Here is what I can remember from them.) 1.st Dream: I was at school. The bell rang, and I went to the bathroom. The first bathroom that I went to was closed for unspecified reasons. I complained to one of the teachers, and she said she that she was annoyed by it to. After that, I went to a different bathroom. This one was jam packed with people. Some of them were waiting for a stall to open, others were doing their makeup, and the rest were just talking to each other. I looked around and found an extra stall that no one was using, so I used it. Then I washed my hands and left. 2nd Dream: It started off at home. I was on my phone when my dad suddenly told me to get ready. I asked him what I needed to get ready for, and he said that we were going to Schlitterbahn water park. I smiled and got ready. Afterwards, my dad, my mom, my sister, and I all went to Schlitterbahn. We found a place to sit, put our towels on our chairs, and walked to the water slides. After waiting in line, my family and I finally got to the top of the slide. The park worker pulled out a giant, circular seat for everyone to sit on and told us to get in. My family sat down first, and as I was about to sit down, my family goes down the slide, leaving me at the top. I got all sad, but the worker told me not to worry about it and gave me a small circular seat to sit on. Once I got on it, I went down the water slide. After that, my family and I went to another water slide, but this time, I was scared. Apparently, that water slide has been known to hurt, and even kill, people. My parents told me not to worry about it though. Once we got to the top, we all went down one by one. After that, we went to our chairs and started talking about breakfast. While we were talking, my sister pulls out a cellphone charger from her bag and drops it in the water. I pick it up and yell at her for dropping it. After I yelled at her, we all went home, and I apologized for yelling and complaining. My dad said it was fine, but I knew it wasn’t. So, I grabbed my phone and went back to my room. 3rd Dream: I was playing a video game that affected the real world. In the game, I met the goddess of nature and hung out with her. She brought me to a cave where I found a bed and went to sleep. When dream me woke up, she saw her grandparents and her father in the cave. Apparently, they had turned it into some kind of house. I asked where the goddess was, and they were like: “who?” So, I started searching for the goddess myself. I found her by the garden, talking to some guy. The guy was super strong and was arguing with the goddess. Then, for some strange reason, they tried to kiss each other, but they got stopped by another goddess. This goddess had a crown on and gave me a tunic. Then, a text box appeared, telling me all about the tunic. After that, the two goddesses and the strong guy left. Then my dad appeared and said that the tunic didn’t look that appealing. Then he told me not to play the same video games that he wants to play when he’s in the room. Then, the two of us go back inside and watch tv with my grandparents. (Then I woke up.)

Dream

My mother had inherited a house in Amsterdam. I went to live there. I went to decorate my room and found a hatch in the ground with a staircase. There was a whole extra part of the house that wasn't shown on the floor plan. It was a ground floor unit with a large garden and conservatory. I then stood at the front door to enter the stairwell and a woman arrived. She said she was my new neighbor but I didn't believe her so I didn't want to let her in. I asked which floor she lived on and she said 2, that was not possible because I knew the person on the second floor. But the woman said she knew my mother. I let her in the stairwell anyway. Then two men came to visit me and they started kissing in my bedroom in front of the window. The neighbors across the street saw it and got angry. Later, a group of neighbors stood on the rafters opposite my house with torches and pitchforks to protest against me. Then suddenly I was at work with Donna and Matthijs. Then a new employee came to take over my shift, but he came with 2 friends. I wanted to tell Donna about my new house, but I couldn't because I had to leave because of that new colleague.

Dream

Was at my aunt’s home that expanded from my home. The home was used for spring break with people in it. A man was using the wow and a pregnant woman needed to use the toilet but didn’t want to go in alone so I went with her inside. I could see the steam from the shower and could feel the warmth. I leave her in the bathroom once we get to the toilet. There was a powder like room in the bathroom and I could see a couple having sex. Then I left and it’s like the house had extra rooms and hall ways. I said to myself “we can definitely rent this out for spring break.” I was climbing blocks in the walls and got to a peak that looked into another room and I could jump off if I wanted but it wasn’t a safe jump. I found another couple engaging in sex and swiftly turned into a different direction. Even after the dream ended and I woke up, I was making plans for the house like it was real.

Dream

I was at a dance class, with Thai girls and guys I was the only one who wasn't Thai, we had to dance in these high heels and pretty outfits, but I had a hard time with the high heels, and I fell a couple of times, and the end of the heels were slippery, which made it extra easy for me to fall. As I was clinging onto a railing in the middle of the dance class holding on for dear life not to fall, everyone else looked so serious and so professional, they were dancing so pretty. As i was trying to have my balance back, I saw a bird, it was relatively big, but not too big for me to hold, he had these sharp wings at the end, and he looked so pretty because he was almost colorful. He also as a facial features he looked like a Phoenix. The bird was flying over us (the dancing people) and the dance master got able to catch him, as he watched him I was so afraid the dance master would harm the bird or kick him outside as it seemed he had nobody, he was all alone. I begged the dance master to give me the bird, while struggling to move with the high heels. I wobbled over to the dance master and said please give him to me, and he did. I was so happy but the bird was fierce and wanted to fly out of my hands. He was so soft and cute. I brought him into the backstage, where people change their clothes. I held him there and stroked him, he was calm with me. My two twin friends came and saw the bird, me and them fed the bird. We were so happy that he was doing fine. We fed the bird too much, that he ended up passing away. I started crying, I tried to do CPR on him, but to no avail. The birds soul was already gone. I made him a nest where i could lay him in his last resting place, still feeling guilty for not being able to take care of this animal. I looked at him one last time, I was sure he wasn't dead. I couldn't imagine that he died. As I looked at him, he looked dead. I went home with my mom, in the car I was crying out to my mom how the bird died and how incapable I am of taking care of such a little animal. Guilt and pain was taking over me, as I cried as if someone of my family members died. It was that deep, the bird meant so much to me, and he was gone. And I was the reason for that. It hurt me, the pain of the bird leaving the world so early hit me like a truck, even more than the guilt that was washing up of me. I loved that bird. He was my companion and my best friend, even though we had just met. He meant a lot to me. And I was the reason for his ending. I just wanted to feed him because I thought he was hungry. And we overfed him until he passed. I feel horrible the pain is unbearable.

Crash

Dream

We were in a big stadium, the starting point to a great, mysterious location. I listened to people talking, my brother being next to me striking conversations with the strangers. He was offered a spot in the middle of the bus and asked me if that was ok, to which I replied that he has a phone so he can find me upon arrival. The talking quiets down as two sisters of older age spoke to us the rules and expectations for the ride. They also said that if you proved you were good, there was a prize. We were then separated into three busses, and I learned then that my brother was moved to a different bus entirely. Getting loaded on, I took note that I was on the white bus, my brother on the blue, and the third one was red. I sat quietly in the back with a stranger that swapped with my brother. As the busses moved, the blue bus was in the middle lane, the white on the end. Things started to get weird when the bus pulled way to far forward, causing cars to swerve not to hit it. Just as quickly, we backed up. There were unseen thuds coming from the other side of the blue bus but we couldn't see anything. As the busses started moving with a green light, the red bus stayed behind as it was practically split in half. People started to panic, but because we knew our bus driver was bad we stayed seated and silent as we moved along. There was a sudden loud pop as the blue bus next to us swerved and hit the side of the white bus, causing both busses to spin out of control. The white bus fell to its side, knocking me down. I hit the seat across hard but it didn't feel as if I broke anything. Fearfully, I took charge and asked if everyone was ok. There were a few that needed some assistance and I offered my help along with a few others that were mostly ok. We saw next to us was the blue bus flipped upside down, but it's shape held firm. Knowing my brother was on that bus I quickly assessed the surrounding streets. Traffic was stopped but no help had arrived yet. With a final check on those who needed help, I opened the back emergency door as it swung down like a ramp. I told everyone to try and get outside if they can. I the raced over to the blue bus and opened the back emergency door on theirs. It was chaos as almost everyone I saw needed help. I called out to those outside that were gonna need extra hand in here. As we puled in and removed those who were able, I desperately searched for my brother. When I found him, he was banged up but visibly ok. Out cold, I carried him outside and made sure he was safe with nothing broken. When I assessed that he'd be ok with no further assistance, I moved on to get the others that were passed out but not too badly damaged outside. Bringing the last one outside, I was grabbed by a big gloved hand; help had arrived. Anyone who needed medical attention in a hospital were first to be wheeled out, the rest treated on-site. A few were asking about the red bus and told that it was taken care of and they'll find out in about 3 hours. They assured them that as of now they knew of only injuries and no confirmed deaths. On our busses, the white bus driver was arrested for starting the red bus accident and the blue bus driver was pronounced dead at the scene. We were slowly brought to safety, my brother laying next to me in a grassy patch, as I looked up my exact location and called my dad to come get us as we were safe to go. After the call I looked up and sighed, feeling my heartbeat slow and the adrenaline finally leave my system. I played down next to my brother and just felt the slight pounding of the painful areas as blood fought its was to the openings. I then closed my eyes and the feeling stopped.

Running away
Suffocating
Moving
Car

Dream

The dream started on a bus, with me trying to get to find a seat. The bus was dark and really uncomfortable, kind of like riding the Greyhound. I saw all these open seats, but people had stuff in them, so I just kept trying to move to the back. In the back it looked like there was plenty of seats. When I got to the middle of the bus, there was someone standing in the middle of the aisle. I tried to move past them, and they just looked at me saying, no. I said, okay, jeez. I looked at the man to my right, who had something in his seat. I said, would you mind if I sat here? He started cussing me out and saying a lot of really mean things. I said, wow, okay, sorry, didn't mean to do that. I then at the same time realized that my butt was all up in this couple's space that was right behind me. I turned around and apologized to them but they were staring at me deep into my soul with this terrible stare. I said, I thought this was supposed to be the South. But everyone here is so freaking mean. As people began to respond yelling at me, I quickly got off the bus and into the town. When I got off the bus, I was exposed to this really huge city. It felt like a futuristic city. Everything was on rail cars and pretty and technologically advanced. But something was off. There was a rail car coming straight for me and it looked like it was going to hit me. I quickly got out of the way. I said that was weird. But it felt like it was coming straight for me, like it wanted to destroy me. The next thing I saw was a car coming straight for me. It was an Uber, but it didn't have a driver. It drove straight to me, and I moved out the way. Then it stopped and opened its doors to me. It wanted me to get in. It looked nice on the inside, but I just knew something was wrong. I could not get into that car. I ran away in the opposite direction. I ran into this building. I really just wanted to get away from this really weird city. Where was I going to go? I couldn't even get back on the bus with all those people, all those mean people. How was I going to get out of this town? As I was walking in this mall, I thought maybe I could just stay here for a while. At least it's safe here. Then holes started to appear everywhere, all around. In all of these holes, there was something different. One had a mirror. One had another train. One had a different train. They were all portals into something that was trying to take me to something bad. I didn't know what was going on. I didn't understand it, but I just wanted to run. I wanted to run to safety, to get away from all these holes, all these things trying to take me away. A hole started to form right underneath my feet. I jumped and just started running forward and forward and slipped into this little hole. A hole that led downstairs to a basement. I started to creep down to this room that was right there. I looked inside and I saw these four or five people. Another person behind me slipped in. They asked, is it safe here? I said, I'm not sure. We opened the door together and walked into the room. Inside there was this man just laughing, having a good time and watching TV. I said, is it safe in here? He said, safe for now. He said they're all going to be really upset when they find out what happens to them. I said, what are you talking about? He then turned on the TV to this ad. It was an ad that showed this man getting his face cut off. His face then got sewed together and elongated like the trunk of an elephant. The extra skin from his face got shrunk and put on the very edge of the trunk-like skin. He basically had turned into his own face elephant. Someone tried to lighten the mood by saying that's going to be hard to drink out of. But I was horrified, terrified, and scared. I started to slowly back out of the room, thinking about everything, thinking about how I was stuck in this world, in this city, and there was no way out. These holes would eventually reach the basement, or I'd be stuck in the basement forever, trying to hide away from all the things that are coming after me. I started to walk upstairs, to go back to the top, just thinking about everything. I grew sad. When I got to the top of the stairs, I saw a woman, so I paused. She was going through it. The holes had appeared for her, her own holes. She was trying to run from them, until one popped up right in front of her, and she ran straight into it. It was a hole with a mirror, in an all-white bathroom. She said, no, no, no, I'm stronger than this. And the moment she said that, a rubber pink phone appeared, and she took the phone, whacked it against the mirror, and started whacking the whole bathroom, destroying it. She said, and that's it, I don't even know why I'm over here running away. I am that bitch. As she was saying these things, a belt started to grow around her, full of tools, fun, bright-colored tools that were yellow, and green, and red. She looked like she was a superhero. She started going around, destroying every hole, going outside, until she finally made it outside. She was amazing, and that's when it hit me. That's the way out, to have confidence in myself, to know who I am, and to not be afraid of who I am. The more confident I became, the better I felt about destroying these things. Tools started to form for me. I was able to destroy every single hole that came my way. After I had destroyed all the holes, I passed this bathroom, in it it looked like there was a dead baby in it. I walked into the room, and I saw this woman, so sad, her baby was on the floor. The baby was a royal blue color, like it was such and suffocated. I went over to her and the baby, and I picked up the baby. She started to say something, saying, there's nothing you can do, but I started to rock the baby, and tell the baby how beautiful it is, and the baby started to find its color again, a natural color. The mother said, how did you do that? I reminded her that she's a great mother, that she's doing her best, that she's trying her best. I handed her back the baby, and I could feel that her confidence was growing, even if I couldn't see it. I left the bathroom, and the dream ended.

Dream

I was at a swim meet or swim class place with my family. My cousin was there and he had to go do something else but he didn’t have a good shirt. So I had an extra shirt and I gave it to him. But I realized I liked that shirt and I forgot to tell him to give it back to me. So I was thinking about messaging my mom to tell my aunt (my cousin’s mom) to tell him he has to give it back when he’s done with it. But then I couldn’t find the group on WhatsApp with my family so I didn’t do that. Then eventually he came back and I told him then that he had to give me shirt back and he agreed. I remember in the dream I thought I was being very selfless giving him the shirt because I wouldn’t have a dry shirt to change into and would have to change into the shirt I had on even though it would be wet. This is not the reason that I wanted the shirt back though.

Dream

I was pregnant. All of a sudden I was very pregnant. I was in my kitchen, thinking about my plan. Things start to hurt but it’s not too intense. We go to the doctor. Me Shayne and karla. We get to the waiting room of the hospital and they are taking their time getting me up to a room. Shayne is mad. I am very scared but I breathe through it. I start to sit down and all of a sudden I am in a clinic where you wait. I sit on the floor and as I do, it starts pushing the baby out. The head is out. I am freaked out. Shayne yells out for someone to call 911. I am coherent so I call them while Shayne and Karla help the baby along. I watch as the baby’s eyes come into view. They are not closed like normal, but wide open. Barely any crying but the world is whirring around me. Slight freaky part but I watch as the baby’s head pulls of its neck and detaches as if its neck is taffy. My heart freezes but I watch as Shayne presses its head against its body and it reattaches as if nothing happened. The baby is born in this waiting room. Finally a nurse comes to helps they take the baby away and hand me a towel to put in my pants. I press on my stomach and all the extra stuff comes out into the towel. I discard the towel and go into a shower room to let the rest of everything go out into a bucket. Karla is there cheering me on. I am not sure where Shayne went but I assume he’s following the baby. As I hope he would. They didn’t even tell me where they were going. I get fed up about not getting help so I look around the closets and my bags and find some biker shorts and a sock. I put the sock against my private area and put on the biker shorts and I stand up. I feel tender but I got most of the stuff out. I start walking around. Karla and I are now at home for some reason. I see my dad. He’s over trying to help with something. There is another person with us but I can’t remember who it was. I remember that we didn’t tell anyone we went to the hospital and I realize I need to send a text announcement to my family. I realize that I never noticed the gender of the baby. I know it my heart it was a boy. Which is crazy because I’ve always felt I’d have a girl first. Shayne is still with him. I worry because I know Shayne is probably freaking out with me not there, but he can handle it. I tell me dad that I had the baby and that I would send an announcement with the name and gender later. He gets emotional. I tell everyone I need to get back to the hospital and Karla takes me there. Then I wake up.
