Problem

Dream

I was at school. One of my professors spent the majority of the class lecturing the class on inappropriate behavior and wasting class time, even though he spends almost every class on a soap box talking about other toptical than what we're supposed to be discussing. I was so upset I had to miss my next class, even though it's my favorite. I ended up in the finances building talking to old friends I'd made at the department when I'd worked there previously. The department head stepped out for some reason, a.d I kept an eye on her email inbox for urgent matters out of habit. I noticed an email come through requesting I be brought in for a matter. Then another old friend came in to the office. Shortly after that, the woman who'd sent the request email came in, sat in my friend's desk chair across from me, and asked what I was going to do to fix the problem. I was a bit off put by the question because I don't work for that department and it wasn't my problem to resolve. Sometime later, the regional director showed up. When she spoke with me it was part debrief, part interview. I remember she asked why I didn't think I was qualified to be the minerals and heavy metals evaluations. I told her I'd just gone back to school for my degree and was almost finished, taking on a full-time job would require that I withdraw from my classes again, and I couldn't do that again. It would break my heart.

Fun

Dream

I went on short vacation with a mother and her daughter. They were both grown. We rented out an air bnb and we were smoking and drinking and having fun. The day it was time to go, we were riding and I remember the daughter say “I haven’t smoked today.” And she motioned her hands to her mouth as if she was smoking. On the way to the airport, I was riding in her daughter’s car and we missed the exit turn to exit out the neighborhood to the main road. We decided to back into a driveway to turnaround and go back to the exit. I saw a man with dreads and wife and kids out on the porch. They were dressed in African clothing and jewelry beads. The man had African three drum set. They were about to make music. So we turn around and head toward the exit. I checked my phone to see if the mother and daughter had the same flight and we did. I don’t remember the flight exactly but when we landed and got off. I didn’t hear from the women again until we went to work. I talked to them and jokingly told them that they left me at the airport and disappeared. At work, we have a huge class and after eating lunch, I assisted the class with throwing their plate away. One causation girl didn’t want to hug me at first, threw her plate away, and smiled at me. Then she came back to hug me. After that, we let the children paint on two tables. I was coaching the teacher to tell her not to set out too much paint paper or it will get overwhelming. After some time it was time to go outside to play and we had some children that were still in the classroom. I had to say “who wants fish sticks” in order to get the children outside. Then I said we are playing kick ball to go outside. Some children went outside but some still wanted to stay inside. I went outside with the children and let the teacher know to stay inside with the rest of the children. Once we got outside, we had to climb down from these concrete steps and jump near a bush. I was a bit skeptical but the children had did it with no problem. I jumped and may have jumped to somewhere else because now I’m in the back of this house and I walk though the house through the front door. The house is empty. I walk out the front door and walked down the steps. The house is on a slight hill. I street walking on the street and noticed that this house is next to my childhood home. I walked up the street to get a better look at the home and some things are different about the house like a two garage door. There was also a shed in the back yard. Everything else resembled the same about the house. I then started to walk back to the house o came out of thinking to myself, “wow I’m going to buy this house and it’s right next to my childhood home.” I checked the address and noticed that it had two different numbers. The number in the black mailbox was 4145. The number address on the house said another number. I then realized the house has two door and that it was a duplex home. I tried to remember what door I came out of. When I went back inside the house, I then heard noise. There were squatters living in the house. Some were in the bedroom, and kitchen. As I’m walking out the back door I hear police sirens. I looked at the latch to see if it unlocked. I opened the back door which was another location and jumped into the lake to swim to the other side. I woke up

Dream

I was in a high rise building. I saw something like a tornado coming… it was soil mixed with something and very very big. It was high all the way up yo thr highest high rise. It came suddenly and swallowed us up. Then another scene… my youngest son Noah was dipping in the lake it was a very dirty body of water almost like oil water… everyone was doing some kind of race/event… there was a guy with a mic saying ready set go! And everyone went swimming out in this water very casually. Noah was only 2 years old. He’s actually 13 but in my dream he was a cute toddler again. We were up on like a hill over the lake watching Noah and these people below. I see other older kids swimming in, no problem. But Noah dipped in the water smiling having a good time, then he went swimming as well… and suddenly something swallowed him up in there. I went and got him somehow, but he swallowed a lot if water. The ladies who work at the event said this happens a lot? & just told me to plop him on my thighs head towards me, and rub his chest. They were praying very casually like this happens a lot. They weren’t worried at all. But he didn’t make it. They were surprised. I think I had another dream about the weird earth tornado disaster too again.

Dream

In my dream I was stuck in the house with my niece. She had a ankle monitor and couldn’t leave the property to check on her kids her son and newborn daughter. I told her I would try to do her the favor but to remember she called me a user. Now I’m not a user because I’m doing her a favor and she’s getting her way. Then I left and I felt weird she seemed paranoid and unstable she said that I was wishing bad on her and witchcraft. She was sending me evil curses and I was rebuking them and sending them back to her. Then I saw my dad in the kitchen with some coworker of his. In another scene I was driving and I had to get on the bridge to get where I was going. Then I got out my car to see the problem and the gate wouldn’t open so I went to help people needed scissors so I grabbed mines I had in the car and went to them and cut a part of the strap of the gate off. Then gave it to them to finish the rest of the straps so the gate could open. This man was recording everything to post on social media. I found his user and asked him could he send me the recording. Then I was in school and he was a teacher he passed out a test sheet and placed it on my desk and wrote a little message to me stating that he would send me the video.

Nightmare

Dream

In this dream at first it was really dumb. At first in the dream I was just thinking of a show we are bear bears and thinking about how cute the bears stack on top of each other and then started thinking about different cartoony and stuff animal looking creatures stacking on top of each other. I then realize that I was spacing out looking out the window in my room. I start hearing fighting and people arguing outside my house. I start to pay attention to what was happening and I see three men two of them were arguing, one of the men pull out a gun and shoots one men multiple times in the stomach. The man that got shot slowly starts falling on to the floor. Another man pulls out a bigger gun and completely kills the man on the floor. After seeing that happen I was in shock I just witnessed a murder. I then realize that I’m in trouble since the two men saw me looking out my window. I hear them heading into my house. I turn off the lights and pretend to be asleep, one of the men go into my room and they shoot one of my curtains and it falls. He gets close to me, I thought I either was going to get shot or raped. The man touches my arm and leaves the room. I’m frozen in my bed, I thought maybe he thinks I’m dead, or maybe he is sparing me for some reason. I hear the other man in the hallway in front of my room saying to go to the attic where my older brother was. It was like they were gathering my family members in the living room to execute them. I hear my aunt’s voice downstairs in the living room and I couldn’t tell if she was the one giving the men orders or a victim. I was really worried about my family I did not know what to do, I was scared, but I later started to realize that it was not real, it was a nightmare

Dream

I remember one of the first dresms was inside my backyard Inwasndoingnsokerhint where inessntrtijgntongonogrrbthrnbrifkneslln but then after that I went to the table at the end of our backyard with my mom to spray paint on my clothes and a police helicopter dropped red paint all over me for some reason, I had to leave the house in the car to a grey day concert that my sister was talking about in the car there were so many people staring at me with the red spray paint but Indidnt care on the freeway the entire time that we’d do so I got into the car rolling the window down I remember when I went into the lobby area for the freeway race there was other people inside the girls locker room/ lobby aka preparation area and I had my things set down there next to tape so then I went and kept talking to people inside the locker room waiting going back and forth, and then when I got back in there was someone who I used to know before who was In my past but I didn’t care about them and then they came over to me trying to get my attention through doing things negatively, but Injust didn’t respond and got my stuff to change and get ready to go, while I left for one minute to the bathroom when I came back she was asking me questions like “Why would you do this to my own things huh? You care so much about myself that your a lesbian dyke reorganizing my shit.” and it was just my things coming back covered with tape on it next to hers which she purposefully stepped on to gather onto her clothes and my bags open which she unlogivslly somehow equated to me investigating her stuff , she was trying to get everyone else’s attention on her to create a problem, but then i responded calmly explaining how I don’t really care and that those things is clearly a problem with herself that she’s trying to projecting onto my life to make herself feel better about from putting me through making me look like i’m harassing her as the victim , she basically got upset from my non chalantness and everyone else inside of the room realized the situation from how i responded and just started ignoring her and acting like she was crazy, I didn’t care and I went out onto the kayaking boats on the freeway and while I was there, and inside the boats on the freeway she got next to mine and started saying in public “I’m still upset because I can’t believe you tried to steal my stuff” and then in response to that I started screaming since she was trying to get me evicted that l know she’s just lying about it when I only had my things next to her and had tape on my own yet she’s still trying to cause a fight about it because she’s determined to try and get me out because you just want to fight she hasn’t been relevant in my life for years and is still trying to live off of that to take advantage of it, when I said that everyone else was like “Oh girl. You should fight her back, Because if that was me.” and I remember instead of fighting defending myself to listen to them which got skyla to shut up and got them in trouble anyways while we were on the kayak boats after we accidentally got onto a escalator exit ramp that leads to the inside of a mall, i went inside there and there was a square room and as I kept progressing I was just in my thoughts relaxing but then I saw a girl who was crying in the middle of the escalator outside of the escalator on the sides of the room and I saw she was hurt so i went to her and hugged her saying “It’s ok.” and she kept crying, but then eventually after hugging her for a while after resting on my shoulders the entire time she said “You’re arms feel really strong.” and I got off from hugging her and she said “Oh your not the muscular man I was thinking.” and then I said “Yeah it’s because I have spray paint all over my hesd and body, but i’m ‘spanish.” I walked off smiling and I saw her happier and then when I went off the kayaking and down the escalator inside of the malll outisifenthe ecidt, I saw a group of my friends there ordering food and as I was trying to go to them to rrr was this man at the msll who was a security guard who I knew before that’s always trying to cause problems with me and to all my friends so he stood next to me and was about to do something but then he looked forward and saw the tripe double cheeseburger 49 he was obsessed with and he couldn’t stop staring at it so I just slowly left at the car for when we were going to the grey day concert my sister said, actually first what happened is we were all inside of this big bike neighborhood and it had a zoo inside, this neighborhood was for really good people in a community made by those who were well off, and as I got lost, before I got lost running out and going away from the people who dictate that I remember I went inside the original place and they said that we are a nuisance, as our family used to be one of the main leaders for that but now we’re in deep poverty which is ruining our reputation and image, and the image of them, so they couldn’t have us there but we’re deeply disgusted and dissapointed, and I said to them but does that dictate anything about us, and when my aunt was begging them around community she said yeah it does so i started going inside the place since this was the enterance to the community to find a way out away from them and I saw on my own a bunch of neighborhoods with people running bikes on each house, yet I was just trying to find a way out, and eventually when it got bad to a point where ai didn’t have much time left, I had to take someone’s bike to get out but I felt too bad stealing someone’s bike so I instead of ran all the way around the zoo area to find my house and get out of the dead end, and I did but it was behind and outside of the community entirely and when I got back we were in such poverty some homeless man tried stealing our car and things, so instead of pushing him out what I did was cooperate and say “Here instead of taking those things why don’t you take this,” and gave him 3 things and as I was gonna give more I said hold on and went back to the kitchen to grab pepper spray and a knife and came back spraying it to him to get him out with just those 3 items and he ran off but yet still broke the car door off our car and was so determined, but eventually we spoke through to him and he went up to us offering to help and then as we were leaving he just started stsying there helping out with the house too, and as I went into the backyard that’s when the spray paint thing happened etc, in the car with my mom once me and my sister got dropped off to the end of the freeway we were supposed to wait for my cousin and my aunt and mom to take us but what ended up happening is my sister had to take mom and my aunts car t the place but my cousin who said she was coming was apparently about to kayak me there, so waiting for her I looked everywhere on both sides for both the boats but I couldn’t find her, and I didn’t message her thinking communicating would send me back even further on time, so I just looked and after that I found one of the people from my school so I was going to get alisha and me to go into a kayak there on the freeway but then I went to the bathroom to check if she was there but then I saw someone else inside thet bathroom with their own stuff sitting half naked with shit in front of them and they were telling me about how they had a horrible day right now and were almost violently shitting inside that tub but I didn’t judge them instead I tried being understanding and said that sucks from how hard it’d be for them and that I thought they were actually my cousin at first but they were looking up to me having a conversation and then when I came back out I realized the kayaks were gone so i tried to call alisha but realized she had to go to the grey day concert without me so I was left back and abandoned by everyone else who was going to take me to there

Wedding
Marry

Dream

I had a dream about my dog Dusha that I don't have anymore. It was a nightmare and it started with me being at this big wedding thing. And I was supposed to marry my friend Nina, a girl, because of some conspiracy. But it was not today that I was supposed to marry here. My family has just asked me to fix this and marry her and it had to be a girl because it had to be a gay wedding for some reason. And I was walking through the hole and thinking about that and I said I don't want to do that. and Nina was walking in front of me and then somebody booked a flight and it was happening already the next morning But they didn't give me any information. I just had one email. It didn't say where it was supposed to be or how it worked or check-in information, nothing. So I was angry, I thought it was my brother or some man that booked this flight that was close to me. I don't remember who it was, but I think it was my brother. And I haven't talked to Nina about the conspiracy to marry. She would probably agree to it. And I thought, oh my God, she's a drunk and she can be really mean. I don't think that this is a good idea. I don't want to be married to this person. and then it turned out that I would have to But I don't remember the reasons why in the dream. And then I was walking around, I don't remember how the dream moved in this direction, but Tusha, my dog that I had to give away a long time ago, she was in the dream too, but she was my dog in the dream. She was walking around being cute and I took her and then she was coming up to another dog. My mom was holding her on the leash. but she let her get close to the dog and Tusha has aggression problems. so she was biting at the other dog but she didn't bite them because my mom pulled her leash back But the other dog bit her, or we didn't see that it did, but it looked like it did. And then she was hurt and she came back and came to me and then I was like, Mom, what are you doing? And I took the leash from her and I unleashed her and I took her with me. And she was so scared that she was starting to bite at me, too. But she didn't manage, and she was just doing it to scare me, and I didn't think anything of it. Because I trusted her that she wouldn't attack me. And then I let her lay for a little while. She was bleeding from her leg and there was a lot of blood coming. and then I came back to her and I tried to touch her a little bit and I said Tusha come on let me lift you we need to take you okay we need to take care of this And when I saw her hurt, I was so close to tears. I was so sad and emotional. This was my doggie, and she was hurt. And then I went and picked her up and I put her in my dad's room. I was in my dad's room in my family home, my childhood home. And then I took a pillow and I put it under her and I also took paper wipes and I put them under her as well so that she doesn't dirty the pillow. There was a lot of blood and I thought I need to take care of this, I need to take her to a doctor. But first I wanted to disinfect the wound. I knew it would hurt, but that's what we needed to do as fast as possible. So just looking for disinfection and some bandages so I could bandage it up for now that it's not bleeding as much.

Dream

Had a dream about it’s confusing to explain but I was with a group of beings can’t remember if they were all human or not but we were super small and the world was big I don’t remember too much the landscape was buildings like in France or Italy and we were like in a residential area but there was destroyed cars and lots of places for his to hide as there was this certain building being guarded by what looks like the military but wearing odd clothing, some were in grey uniform and some in light blue all had those 1945 helmets from the war, a T-shirt some of them in their colours and holding rifles securing the place. I was with a team of 5 people and I could see our health bars and I noticed if we hugged togother we would be healing ourselves there was one member of the group that could barely move because she was so low on health we all hugged in a group and brought her back up to full health. We had to stealthy get on the 2nd floor of the building as we were waiting for our guy to come through idk who but that was the mission we had no business inside the building we just needed to get to the balcony without being seen so I moved swiftly and they followed behind me moving to car and covers to prevent us from being seen. We did this successfully because of our height difference they guys were basically giants and we were like the size of teddy bears so hiding wasn’t a problem. We got there eventually but in my head my ex was in my head and it felt like I was calling to her or something or I was waiting for her. She was not in the group with me but it was very random. Felt like I was waiting for her but like usual she was a no show anyways our game came on a motorbike and he saw us and then that’s when I woke up I guess mission complete?
