Half of my classmates from 5th grade and me all woke up in a lost area and we couldn’t find where to sleep and we slept in a strangers living room and then the owners came downstairs and scolded us after that we all when to the pool and I traded a necklace to a blind person, when it was night again we went to the same house but we were extra quiet this time but people was farting and sneezing, I knew the owner was going to come downstairs so I rushed out of the door and broke the door knob but I decided to keep it for a souvenir. I didn’t know where to go so I ran too the beach and sat in a chair and enjoyed the sunrise !

There where a lot of dogs in this dream. At first i was at a friends house and as we wete talking, a little puppy ran to us and i started petting him. He was adorable but my friend got annoyed. We saw a woman and she apologised for her puppy escaping and running to us. The dog ran back but also back again to me and my friend told me that because i petted him he will not leave. After i say goodbye and start walking home in the sunrise i see a street with a restaurant that just finished being build. It’s pretty and new and empty. As i’m walking through the empty and peacefull streets i’m passing a person with 2 dogs. They are very active and get out of line to come sniff me and the person with them is very friendly also. As i walk further i see an old classmate in a really cool outfit. I want to go say hi but at that moment we arrive at a little lake, we both need to get to the other side but the bridge is removed. There is in fact other options, like a zipline and climbing stuff as if it is a playground. As we start trying to find a way a man is sitting there telling us we can’t do it and we are going to fall into the water. This man is her brother. He explained he looks bad because it’s so early and i joke he looks like an aggressive alcoholic. He did not like the joke. I wake up before i get to the other side

Dream

I got a new job at a place I really want to work at. I was incredibly happy to be back to working there. I was also struggling with getting to work on time at my current job and I was thirty minutes late. I tried calling to let them know but I couldn’t get my phone to work. I remember waking up in my dream and it still being dark outside. There were people outside talking although I didn’t know who they were. My dog was laying next to me and she got up to go outside and bark at them. I also remember that I woke up and my two kittens were in my room which was weird because they always sleep in a crate in the living room so they had no business being in there. In my dream I remember bringing them in there the night before and falling asleep so when I woke up they were still there. One of the weirdest parts of the dream was when I woke up, there was this really loud noise coming from outside. I opened the back door and there were stars shooting across the sky so fast it was like someone put the sky on fast forward on the highest setting. After a few seconds it stopped and the sun started coming up.

Sunrise

Dream

This dream takes place in some kind of campground. The specific setting is not important until later on, I am out camping with my dad. At some point, at sunset or sunrise, we are walking along some kind of nature trail. We eventually reach some kind of field with a lot of long purple flowers. For some reason though, I am overwhelmed by the sun and visual imagery and point this out to my dad. He then goes on a rant about some kind of life lesson and how I can’t accept things as they are. Eventually I find a really large leaf that I want my dad to take a picture of. I hold it up and he fails to take the picture several times. Eventually, the picture is no longer able to be taken as it is no longer sunrise. I get extremely upset by this and get into a fight with my dad over it. My dad then says my enjoyment of my favorite band is interfering with my emotions. When we go home, it is my sisters birthday party. My mom notices my anger and says I am ruining my sisters birthday because of it. I go outside into the backyard and notice that the neighbors house is broken on one part and looks unstable. The next part of the dream goes into a flashback. I am preparing for a friends birthday party. Her party is significant because of the time it takes place in. When I am supposed to be going to the party, it shows my dad taking me to that nature trail instead. This is where the dream ends.

Dream

I'm living in a house by myself. It's very well-maintained, high-end furnishings, 1990s is the feeling of the Era, but I am in my twenties or thirties in the dream. The time of day is always sunrise. One day, as I awaken, a family has moved in: mother, father, baby. The father makes advances in me, but I largely ignore them because he has a family. One day the woman is gone and he attempts to seduce me. We enjoy passionate lovemaking fire what seems like days, but as u stated already it is always sunrise in the dream. We take a break and play with the baby, with turns out to be a stuffed toy that has feelings and discernment. The toy adores me, which endears the man to me and he wants to make love again. I ask him about the woman, and he says something, but I cannot decipher his answer as he begins making love to me. She enters and catches us. He is heartbroken, and the woman gives him an ultimatum: she doesn't mind that he is gay, but she still wants a family with him. I leave and hide in the office by the front door, as she makes a threat on my life; though I can easily kill her, I'm more curious about the man's decision. While I'm in my hiding space, he comes to find me and we stare at each other. As he is about to attempt to make love to me, a firefighter enters the room and tells him to leave. The firefighter then asks me if I'm OK. I can clearly see the firefighter and his features. I am attracted to him and he is attracted to me. He takes one step in my direction... and then I wake up.

Dream

I went to a friend of a friends apartment to stay for a few days. The apartment was in a historical buildinf with split levels. There were wooden floors and white walls. My friend's friend gave me a warm welcome. His apartment was only $85 a month each for him and his two roommates. The front door opened intoma large open livingroom with large South facing windows. To the left of the livingroom was his room. His room had two twin sized beds and no windows. I tried to sleep but couldn't because I was hungry. My friend's friend gave me a snack, which consisted of a frozen sandwich, orange slices, and chocolate chips. I thought it was odd that he gave me a frozen sandwich but I was thankfuk for his generosity. My friend's friend needed a haircut. I told him my other friend gave great haircuts. The other friend is dead in reality but was alive in the dream. I called my friend and had him come give my friend's friend a haircut. My friend's friend initially disliked my friend but slowly warmed up to him. His hair was just growing out from a buzzcut. My friend gave him hair advice and trimmed my friend's friends hair. Twilight arrived. I watched the sunrise over a large lake. I set up an easle and began painting. I wanted to paint sunflowers my ex-boyfriend gave me. I let myself get carried away and painted the backdrop of the picture. At first, the paint was too thick and difficult to move around the canvas. I kept applying water to the paint. It eventually became easy to manipulate. The scene I painted looked like people sitting in a cafe. I told my friend's friend I wanted to live in his building. I went to look at other suites. I opened his neighbor's door and walked into her apartment. I realized I shouldn't have been able to do that and went back to the original apartment.

Dream

I saw dreams in multiple scenes. Scene 1: I was in cabin. Which was hanging from two tracks in the sky. There was sky and cloud but there was nothing below. I was trying to jump from one cabin to another with my brother. Scene 2: those tracks led to a railway station in the sky. Which was fairly crowded. My brother and I were running on the tracks and jumped on the station. I was dropping my brother for his train. I said I am bussy and I will not be able to till the end of the train to drop you. My brother stood with crowd in front of the cabin in the middle of the train. Suddenly I thought I should leave me. When I near him. He went in front of the last cabin of the train. And went inside. I ran to the last cabin. And stood outside feeling regretful that why did I not say goodbye to my brother and now I have even missed that the chance I had. Scene 3: I was in a building with four five people. Suddenly we realized there was a jerk in the building. We thought it was an earthquake. And suddenly there was an alarm to evacuate the building. We thought we have to get out of the building now, and it was feeling like a hassle. When we came of of the building. We realized it was on file. Many floor were burning. Felt like I was in New York. I could hear screaming of people getting burned in the building. We thought we should walk around while this situation gets resolved. We started walking towards south and along the building. Turned east in the corner. Suddenly I was in San Diego, but the building was still there on my left. And the screaming became even worse. I could hear screaming of a man loudly. While he was getting burned in the building. I never saw in the dream anyone getting burned but I could hear screams coming from the building. But at the same time. I could see beautiful sunrise. I could see it was beautiful. So we decided we should go for a breakfast. Scene 3: I was done with the breakfast. Came out of the store. Now I was in busy streets of India. I wanted to go to a bus station to catch a bus. So I walk from the store to under of the tree (I have this tree in my memory from long time, I don’t know if this tree actually exists in real life or not. It has been there in my dreams since childhood). It was crowded. It was still morning golden hour. I was walking through the crowd standing under tree from behind. I noticed they were not usual people. They were like mannequins but real people. I thought they are all part of me or they work under me. As I came in front of the crowd, suddenly a car came in front of me. It was yelow golden with magical shine on it. Something was surreal about it. Driver asked me to get in the car. He told me that I owned the car and he is my driver. I was amazed the I had a car and a driver too. It was a long sedan with two doors in it. And I saw someone was sitting behind the driver. And I asked the driver who is this guy sitting behind you? For which driver inside said no one. This car is only for you. I had a feeling that I have been in this car before and this driver was the one who dropped me to the hotel (the building on fire). I was getting in the car to sit on the front seat

Waking up early for church, but we’re already in line for the plane. Mariah is still in our room, and my dad is on his way. I have a really funny older brother, who is making jokes about selling cars. It’s got a she broke im up flow, but it’s like cars up slap down idk. I’m wearing something provocative, my bat bra and underwear practically, I put on my angel wing skirt when I get turned away from security, she was so cute I played a video in my head like four or five times. And it was so funny that other people super imposed themselves onto the video. Although I had to repeat the tsa like three times with dickhead security. He lifted my bra up and flashed me to the whole area. Like what? I had to go through the scanner like three times, I took a zyn can out of my hip, and then another, and it was because I was wearing a belt, I think like the one I bought Aiden. Or didn’t buy but had. We were going to Vegas and I needed to change the sheets into strawberry themed. I had a cool the dye shirt I was going to give to Mariah. Reed said his name isn’t going to be Vegas tonight and we all hit the dp. I really wanted bubble braids but mia sounded like her mom when she said they were uneven. My dad listed out every gift Aiden had given to me, and each one my dad had given to me were much more personal and sentimental. I had my zyn in my underwear waistband and made it through security and then some of the terminal. I was relived to see Luke, he was intrigued by my outfit, and I covered a bit with a scarf. He then whispered something to be about ovinadab, Isaac, and Sarah. And his mouth popped and I woke up. I went back to sleep and had a really surreal experience. In one section I was at a Harry styles concert, in the giant dark city every girl on the way to the concert was wearing the same thing, a skirt and a small top. Doja cat was dressed differently, with little puffs. She was far away on a dock, they had gymnastics as the openers and girls kept getting severely injured. Mark zukerbueg was seated right behind the mom, and I he got bored so he put on the metal I made a friend, and there were cesarean box meta games. In another place, much like a swamp, a group of young kids decide to work an experiment. They run as fast as they can dragging a tire in the mud, they form in a heart shape with chains and attractors, and they get struck by lightning and catapult into a time between space, the tire turns into a giant red lid. Some kids are penetrated through the heart with chains, while others are killed by the sheer force of pull. Finally one girl manages to get out, but once down she puts water on her shoulders and is attacked by a swarm of swamp monsters. Also siah was married, and drew wanted to hit. I said I wanted to wait to marriage, and he took off his pants but up then back on. We were al in this house, with an island in the kitchen, and a big table. There were people chilling in a room beside us, like on a couch. Luckily we didn’t hit bc my dad came down shortly after, and we took bikes from the out the front door. We went on a bike ride in the dark, and drew like went into a deep canal, and my dad lost a rim of his tire. There were lots of people on the dock, and I kept having to tell them to fuck off. I felt proud at one point or another at my initiative. and drew drove a boat back upstream during sunrise. Me and my dad hopped on a jet ski but couldn’t get out.

NASA found a new planet that was viable for humans. It was only 4 days away and the only problem was when it got completely dark everything would instantly freeze. Everything would thaw by sunrise (night was on the same time schedule as Earth; it only took 1 1/2 hours for rise) but there was a low percentage rate of the humans coming back alive if they didn’t have on a suit (80% of us didn’t—paid option). On that planet it took 3 hours for the sun to set. NASA was offering a free 7 days trip to said planet. All we had to do was sign up on the website and wait for us to get chosen. My boyfriend was completely against it but since everyone else (my eldest son’s father, my eldest son, my oldest daughter, and myself) he gave into me signing up. It took years before we were accepted and I was getting frustre about how everyone was bragging about visiting the planet and some got to go multiple times. The weird thing was no one remembered the last day, only returning home to Earth. When we (My oldest son’s father, my oldest son, my two daughters, my youngest son, my boyfriend and I) got accepted there were many more upgrades to the plane like bigger arcades, more of the planet explored, etc. Everything on the planet was the opposite of Earth, such as it was more land than water. So at the “beach” it was sand for miles and a patch of water. We had an amazing time. On the last day, something that looked like an crystallized asteroid appeared on the shoreline. Like the sun when it’s rising. When NASA analyzed the object, they found it added 3 days to our return and we didn’t have enough fuel. We had to wait 7 days for them to come with extra fuel. Things got weird on the planet. When we were on the beach, the sand and water completely mixed. So it was sand waves. My youngest daughter didn’t understand the change and continued to play, I had to save her and got cut up badly covering her from the wave and the sand was ice cold. I was soaking wet and shivering. The life guards ran to cover the ones who got hit with the towels and evacuated the beach after seeing the scene. Then an alarm sounded and we had to go into our hotel rooms. When we all got inside my oldest son had his arm in a sling. At that very same time the ocean went weird my daughter, oldest son and his father witness the VR arcade coming to life. Fortunately my daughter and oldest son’s father was playing a version of Dance Dance Revolution but my son got his arm broken when he was caught off guard playing Call of Duty. My boyfriend was fussing at us about how he knew this was a bad idea and it didn’t make any sense for NASA to offer free trips, and how no one remembered their last day. He was upset because he knew he shouldn’t have given in and we go have just gone to Japan or Korea again. Things got worse as the days went by. We stayed in our hotel rooms but looking out the windows we saw the sand waves crashing against the stairwells. The characters from the video games roaming the island, tempting us to come out of the hotel rooms. We would even hear knocks at our hotel room and no one being there. We watched people fall for the tricks and see them died. We eventually covered the hotel windows because blood was smeared against it and there were multiple dead bodies hung up like trophies. Most were from the friendly VR games like DDR but possibly 10 were people from Earth. The asteroid was moving and by the 13th day of being there we were woken up by loud pounding knocks on the door. It was security from the spaceship telling us to grab our belongings and head to the ship. They showed their badges and went to the ship. We stayed on the ship the entire day and on the 14th day when we woke up the island was completely normal. Like nothing ever happened and the people that were killed by the video game characters was walking towards the ship, ready to go home. NASA sent us a message saying the strange object has disappeared and we can just travel along with them and they will be there just in case. As we took off from the planet, leaving the atmosphere everything turned completely black then the lights came back on. I was in a panic and maybe 7 other people. I looked at my boyfriend and before I could ask him if he was okay (because he was holding our baby who was crying), he said to me while trying to calm the baby “That was an amazing trip! I’m so glad you convinced me.” All the infants were crying, and only 6 other people (me being 7), were freaked out about the lights being out. Come to find out the lights were out for the 4 days and we (the babies and 7 of us) were aware. Whatever happened caused everyone else to forget what happened for those 8 days. Of course when we got off the ship the seven of us got together and shared the worse thing that happened to us on the trip. My boyfriend overheard the last person and said “That must of been some VR game, huh?” and they went along with it. As we were heading home they were all talking about the best part of the trip. I just sat silent, texting the others in a group chat. My boyfriend was driving and he looked at me and asked me who I was texting and before I could answer a semi truck was headed towards us on the wrong side of the road and I said “watch out!” The collision is what woke me up.

I wake up at my old house on Pastime road cleaning up a bad party. I was sleeping in my poncho until a nasty red puddle woke me. I soiled my poncho on a puddle of puke and vomit that smelled like strawberry gatorade. I mopped it up. I threw my poncho in the laundry. Waiting anxiously at the door, I wait from sunrise to sunset. Danaché finally comes home...to Alana's house. She blithely walks past me and stumbling like a sleep walker she tucks herself in and sleeps in my parents' bed. I wince. A sleepy blond man opens the front door and says "goodnight honey I love you". This total stranger recieves a "I love you too" from Danaché. Some girlfriend she is. How dare she touch Alana's things? Who are you people? Where is Alana? Why isn't Alana here? I awake. Sober enough to remember Alana left years ago. Danché is here.
