Jaws

This dream was one of my first nightmares. As you would guess, it happened after I saw Jaws.

I was alone in my house, and my house was around 200 feet underwater. There wasn't much light; the walls had a deep blue hue and reflected water ripples. I could breathe underwater and was swimming around in my kitchen when I saw a shark in the living room swimming slowly towards me. Of course I was freaked out, so I desperately started to swim toward the bathroom in my parents' room so I could lock myself in there. I strained as hard as I could to move; it felt like I was swimming through maple syrup. I got through the doorway to my parents' room, and started to swim to the bathroom, which was on the other side. When I was halfway across, I turned my head to see the shark swimming through the doorway, going faster now. I pulled myself through the bathroom doors, but I knew the shark would get me before I closed the door, so I turned around to the shark and yelled "Can we just be friends!?!?!?" Instantly the scene changed. I was standing on top of clouds, which stretched far beyond the eye could see. The shark had turned into a purple broncosaurus and was my friend! YAY!!! A rainbow formed in the background and a panda appeared off the right side of my vision. Everything was happy until my mom's head popped out the left side of my vision and shouted "WAKE UP!!!" I woke up, and sure enough, my mom was sticking her head in my door shouting "Logan, wake up! You're going to be late for school!!!"

Water Slides

This dream happened in elementary school. It is the earliest dream I remember. This dream doesn't make any sense, but oh well...

It was a bright cloudless day in the middle of the desert. It wasn't hot; instead there was a cool breeze(yes I can feel in some of my dreams). The sand was tan-colored, and there were a few mountains in the background of the same color. I was standing in the middle of this weird water park. There were all these water slides everywhere, all white and very tall. How tall, I'm not sure; it was blurry. There were also 2 types of signs posted everywhere, one type had an "O" on it, with a red circle and strikeout(like a no smoking sign). The other type had a "S" on it, also with a red circle and strikeout. I decided to ride one of the slides, so I climbed a ladder for one of the slides(which was also white) until I reached the top. I came down the slide(but I didn't remember what it was like, since it was blurry). I remember shooting out the slide exit at the bottom, but instead of landing in water I landed in a square quicksand pit around 8 ft by 8 ft. I kept sinking no matter if I stayed still or struggled. When the level of the quicksand was at my neck, I turned to see a old man with a long beard pointing at me and laughing really hard. I was angry at him for laughing at me, so I was cussing at him until my head disappeared below the surface. After that I woke up.

Mrs. Tyrell

This is a short dream that I had in 3rd grade.

I was in some Muslim city like Baghdad, since there were Muslim types of buildings around(It's hard to describe). No one was around. Suddenly, my 3rd grade teacher Mrs. Tyrell popped out of nowhere and began to talk to me(I forgot what she said). She wanted to assign me a lot of homework, so I flew away. To do this I started flapping my arms, then I would float off the ground. She was trying to grab my leg, which was just in her reach. I avoided her by pulling my legs up and trying to flap my arms faster. I got out of her reach, and I flew away at about 200 feet off the ground and around 200 mph. I thought I was flying so fast that I was afraid I would go around the world and see her standing there again where I left her. But I didn't, and I woke up.

Street Fighter 2

This is a short dream that happened when I was into playing Street Fighter 2.

I was standing inside the white house alone, in a wide room. I remember the carpet was red, and also vaguely I think I also saw a desk and chair to the end of the room on my left. By looking out the windows I saw it was a bright and cloudless day. For some reason, a section of the wall was missing to my left and I could see fuzzily the green grass on the ground. I saw M. Bison standing there across the room, wanting to beat me up. He ran up to me and punched me in the stomach, his arm glowing with that energy he has in the game. I felt it, but it didn't hurt at all. Since he was kind of bent down after that punch, I elbowed him in the back, veerry slowly, like if I was moving through maple syrup. I wasn't sure if it actually hurt him or not. It seemed impossible that I would beat him, since I moved slowly and he moved normally. The rest of the dream was either blurry or forgotten, but I remember somehow I did win the battle.

Goldeneye

I had this dream when I was into playing Goldeneye for N64.

For those of you who have played Goldeneye, I was on the Frigate. I had 2 objectives: to kill all the passengers on board(I dunno why), and to destroy the engine room. I wasn't given any weapons, but I could create my own. For example, I pretended that I was holding a rocket launcher, then I had one. I still couldn't see the rocket launcher, I just knew it was there. I went to a passenger compartment, did a firing motion with my imaginary rocket launcher, and the entire room blew up with a big explosion! I was surprised at this, since weapons never really work well in my dreams. I did the same with another compartment full of passengers. Finally, I went to the front of the ship, where I saw a flight of stairs leading down to the engine room. I didn't need to go down the stairs, I just fired an imaginary rocket down it and the entire engine room blew up. All of a sudden a message appeared right in my vision "MISSION COMPLETED!"(I couldn't really read it but I knew it said that). I woke up afterwards.

Teddy and Tony Wu

I don't exactly remember when this dream happened. In it my friends Teddy and Tony Wu(who are brothers) were chasing me.

The chase occurred in a very crowded mall. We were inside the mall, and I was weaving through a whole bunch of people in an attempt to lose Teddy and Tony. However, like all of my chase dreams, they always seem to find me in the middle of the crowd. They tried to sandwich me in a hallway, but I escaped by jumping and pulling myself up and under the railing of an overhead catwalk. Unfortunately, they were adept at doing this maneuver too, so seconds later they both pulled themselves up. I ran outside and tried to hide myself among the people there(there were a lot of people outside too). From here I could see vaguely what the mall looked like: it was around 4 stories tall with many glass panels, along with light green horizontal support beams. There I woke up, happy that I escaped(I believe that when I wake up, I disappear from existence inside my dream).

Starcraft

This isn't really a Starcraft dream, I just don't have a better name for it. This dream happened sometime in high school when I was into playing Starcraft.

I was in this arena that looked like the inside of an office building with many other people. We were all fighting a free-for-all, to see who would be the last one alive. For those who have played Starcraft: we were each issued 3 red energy bars that looked like Wraith lasers. They were around 1 inch wide and 5 inches long. If you lined them up end to end, they would turn into a laser rifle. If you put them side by side, they would turn into a grenade(what a waste of a weapon). I quickly assembled my 3 bars into the rifle form. I saw another person at the end of the hallway, around 20 feet away. I was quicker in my reflexes and I shot him squarely in the stomach, and he fell down(no blood or anything). The laser that I shot looked like the one that a Wraith shoots. I saw another guy in the same area and I hid for cover in a office room, while assembling my gun into a grenade. I popped out and threw it toward the end of the hallway(I didn't see him there; I think he went for cover too). There was a big explosion, and I saw debris flying past the doorway of the room I was in. Windows shattered and glass flew all around. Sadly, I had a hunch that I didn't get him with my grenade, and I was now defenseless. Luckily, I woke up after that so I think he didn't get me.

Mrs. Peck

I had this dream when I was in 9th grade World Studies with my teacher Mrs. Peck.

My teacher Mrs. Peck was chasing me through an area near my church for some reason. It was a bright and cloudless day. I remember she was wearing a green sweater and beige pants. I had this red razor wheel, a little scratched up from previous use. When I rolled it on the ground(still holding it), I would turn invisible. So I ran while rolling the razor wheel on the ground. However, she could still see the razor wheel, so she would she this red wheel moving on the ground and run after me. I ran around a building corner, set the wheel where she wouldn't be able to see it, and looked around the corner to check where she was. She was around 50 feet away, not knowing where I was. She looked around briefly, looked at the building where I was looking at her from, and decided to investigate there. I thought "DARN IT!" to myself. I turned around and ran around the building, hopefully circumventing her. Unfortunately, she heard my footsteps, and followed the sounds around the building. Panicking, I hid in a corner on the side of the building, stuffing the razor wheel into the very corner, hoping that she would run by, and not check the corner. After a few seconds, she walked briskly right by me, about 5 feet away. Of course, since I always get found in a chase dream, she looks right and checks the corner where I am, seeing the razor wheel in the corner. Immediately, I tried to spring away, now visible since the wheel wasn't on the ground anymore. However, she was fast enough to intercept me as I tried to dash past, and she caught me around the waist. After that I woke up though, so I never knew what happened to me.

The Talking Beetle

This was a very long dream that I had in my senior year of high school, but it's very fragmented since I forgot some parts.

I was downstairs in my house in the dining room when this dream started. The sun was just setting I think, since I remember red and orange light coming through the window. Suddenly I heard a buzzing sound, one of a large flying insect. Then I saw the beetle. It was round, shiny blue, and the size of a large marble. It was inside the house, around the front door. Then it flew up to me, around my eye level 5 feet away, and said in a high voice "Hi Logan!" It said a few other things that I don't remember clearly, but it said that it was from another planet and it was going to take over the earth. I also somehow figured out that it laid its eggs under your fingernails. I looked under my fingernails, and sure enough, I saw this tan grainy stuff that looked like very fine sand or caviar. I decided to meet with 5 other friends to find out how to get rid of this beetle threat(they knew about the beetle too). One of my friends was Weiping Yang, a girl who was a junior at the time I was a senior in high school. I don't remember who were the rest, but another friend was this 30 year old bald guy with grey hair on the sides. He said that we all had to consult the "oracle"(like from Matrix) one at a time to find out what to do. So, we went to his house. By this time it was night, and stars were shining in the sky. The oracle had a fabulous home: There was a small swimming pool right inside his living room, where we 6 took a little swim. There were potted plants everywhere and other decorations that I couldn't really make out, making the place look nice. The oracle was behind this door with a gold doorknob, and we went one at a time. He spoke to Weiping first. When she came out a short while later, I remember asking her "how was it?" but I forgot what her reply was. Finally it was my turn to speak with him. I entered the room, which looked almost exactly like my parents' bedroom. The lamp in our parents' room was also there, illuminating the walls with a yellow glow. There he was, sitting in a chair at a desk, with an empty chair beside him facing him. He did not turn to look at me, but told me to have a seat next to him. I sat down, then he looked at me. He was a 50 year old white man with short grey hair. I think he was wearing a grey sweater. He told me that the only thing to do was to escape, and that I had to find a ramp that resembled a ski jump, and go down it fast enough so I could escape to the moon. After he was done speaking, I got back to my house somehow, and I told my family what the oracle said. My mom knew a place on the freeway that went downhill then uphill so we could fly to the moon. So she drove our family there in our Lexus. Unfortunately, somehow fast food restaurants such as Del Taco found that that was the only escape route too, so they set up restaurant booths in the middle of the freeway in order to get some business. We decided to bust through there anyway. We drove downhill, swerving around the booths(which were at the bottom), then uphill, and we took off! As we were flying up(at around a 30 degree angle) I looked out the passenger side window and saw the Golden Gate Bridge. It was red, and we were around 100 feet above it. We made it to the moon, which was the shape of a penis. We were a couple miles away from it when I first saw it, rotating slowly. People had already colonized it; I saw a neighborhood with around a dozen houses, a hospital, and a stand selling steak and pork chops when we landed. I bought a steak chop from the stand first thing(it was about the size of a 20-pound turkey), then we went to visit the hospital. I don't really remember what it was like, but there was a poo monster in the toilet. It just looked like a piece of poo, but it could move around, and it jumped out of the toilet. We didn't really care for some reason. I don't remember anything else after that point, but my dream ended a little later.

The Mansion

I think I had this dream in my senior year of high school.

I went with 5 other friends to this mansion on a bright and sunny day to spend the night. I remember one friend, Linda Nyugen, and another was a guy named John(I forgot his last name) from my Honors Spanish 3 class in high school. The mansion was 2 stories high and was the shape of a rectangular prism. There were about 8 windows on the front of the house. We rang the doorbell, and this HUGE guy opens the door. He looked like Apocalypse from X-men. He was very gentle though, and invited us in. We liked the place immediately(even though I don't remember what the inside looked like). We were exploring around, and I went into the bathroom. Inside, the walls were covered with plywood, and the walls were lined with computers all with Counterstrike on them! I immediately told everyone else, and they were excited and went into the bathroom to play CounterStrike. But I thought "hey, there's something wrong. There isn't supposed to be Counterstrike in the bathroom." So I went up to the huge guy's office on the second floor while he was down there with my other friends. I found this green floppy disk in his office that somehow proved that the huge guy was making too much money by an illegal operation or something, and I confronted him with the floppy in front of everyone else. I yelled at him saying something like "you are doing something illegal!" Then he said "let me see that floppy." I said "NO WAY!" since he would break it to destroy the evidence. But then John snatched it from me, saying "just let him see it." The huge guy looked at it, said "WHOOPS!", then broke it in half, predictably. He said "whoops" BEFORE he broke it... grrrrr. I was enraged, saying to my friends that he just destroyed the evidence. However, they were like "hey, forgive him, it was just an accident." With that, the huge guy dismissed everyone to go play Counterstrike again, but told me to stay in his office. He locked the office when everyone left but me. I didn't want to know what he was going to do to me, so I went out the window(he was too stupid to lock it). At this time it was night, and it was snowing profusely outside. The sky was black and the ground was covered with a thick layer of snow. It wasn't cold at all though. I could have escaped the place entirely, but I decided to get revenge on that guy instead. I walked on the stone awning outside, still on the second floor, trying to find a safe place to jump down. I looked in one of the windows, and saw my friends playing Counterstrike. John was putting his head on the keyboard while another girl was laughing, since the girl had just killed John in CS. I got on the ground and went back in the front door, sneaking around the mansion. I heard the guy talking to my friends, saying "we have to go find your friend; he may be in big trouble!" So they went to go look for me. I snuck around to the kitchen, and looked inside. There was another person in there, a guy named Gerald(one of my tennis buddies). He was wearing only an undershirt and boxers, and was talking into a microphone. Then I realized that he was controlling the huge guy and saying his speech(like in The Wizard of Oz). Gerald saw me and quickly said into the mic "He's in the kitchen!" I immediately grabbed him in a chokehold and dragged him outside the front door. My friends were in the kitchen at this time saying "he's not in the kitchen!" Then Gerald said "Look outside the windows in front of the house!", since I was dragging him across the windows in front of the house. I ducked right under the window and pressed against the wall as everyone went to the window and looked out into the snowy yard. I looked up to see Linda Nyugen looking out, saying "I don't see him!" There was a grey brick wall on the side of the mansion with a hole big enough to fit a person through, so I proceeded to drag Gerald through it. There was a cliff on the other side of the wall, and I was going to throw him off it... but alas! I woke up. Don't worry, I would never think of killing Gerald in real life.

Counterstrike

This is a short dream around the time I started playing Counterstrike.

For those of you who have played Counterstrike, I was in de_dust on the terrorist side. I was very tired, and was trying to find a safe place to sleep in the map. Of course some guy would always find me and kill me, so I couldn't sleep. I tried hiding behind different crates, but someone would eventually find me. Finally, I imagined that I was INSIDE a crate. Then I was inside one, and no one bothered me anymore. YAY!!! (yes I know bullets shoot through crates, but no one shot through mine)

Dizzy Dreams

Have you ever had dreams where you wake up with the room spinning and with nausea? I think it only happens when you're sick. I've had 3 short dreams like that in the same night. I call them "dizzy dreams".

The 1st dizzy dream: I was walking along the sidewalk in my neighborhood at night when Dracula pulled up in this shiny black Mercedes Benz. He opened the door, stepped out, and grabbed me. I felt too weak to fight back, and he proceeded to bite me and suck my blood, and I grew dizzier, and dizzier. Then I woke up with the room spinning. After my nausea went away, I went back to sleep.

The 2nd dizzy dream: This one was pretty quick before I woke up again. I was jumping on my bed, then I laid down, with my head hanging off the side of the bed. I started to feel dizzy, so I tried to pull my head back up, but I was too weak to. So I felt dizzier, and dizzier, and I woke up with my room spinning again. After recovering a bit, I went back to sleep.

The 3rd dizzy dream: This one was short too. A barbarian with a mangled red beard had captured me. He took me to a rectangular pit in the dirt ground where there were 3 wooden posts(around 6 inches in diameter). He tied me upside down to the center post with some rope, and guess what happened? Right! I got dizzier and dizzier, and woke up with the room spinning.

After that, I was too afraid to go to sleep again, so I stayed up and read some magazines.

Heaven and Hell

I had this dream when I started college.

I was sitting at the dinner table in my house when my dream started. It was in the late afternoon and no one was around. All of a sudden, *POOF* Satan appears right beside me. He is the stereotypical devil, a big muscular guy with red skin. He probably had horns too, but I dared not look up at his face since I was scared. He wasn't like "BRRRAAAHHHHH YOU ARE GOING TO HELL WITH ME!!!!!", but he was rather gentle and asked "Would you like a last meal before you go to Hell?" I said yes, in order to give myself time to think of an escape plan. My "last dinner" were 6 mediocre dumplings in a white bowl, without any soy sauce. When I was eating, I planned to run across a nearby football field to the other side, and I hoped God would take me to heaven for my effort. So I made a run for it, and Satan gave chase, and I did make it to the other side, but I didn't go to heaven. So, I kept on running through a surburban neighborhood that looked like one near my house. Then God put an idea in my head, saying that I had to run to this restaurant that was on top of a mountain(he gave me a vision of it) before the sun set in order to get to heaven. I don't remember how I did it, since it was blurry, but I eventually made it! YAY!!! The restaurant(I don't know what restaurant it is) was surrounded by glass panels, and the inside looked just like the inside of a fast-food restaurant. The sun was almost about to set when I went inside, and I looked at the sun through a glass panel. It was orange at first, as in a sunset, but it got brighter and brighter, until all I could see was white... when the brightness died down, I was in heaven! WEEEHEEE!!! Heaven looked weird though. I was flying around 1000 feet above the ground, and on the ground there were all these big stone castles everywhere, with cloudy mist flowing all around them. Combined with the sunset(the sun was its normal orange again), it was quite a vivid and beautiful sight. The orange hue reflected off the castles and mist. I woke up after that scene. YAY I didn't go to hell, even though I would like to see what it would be like...

Witches

I think I had this dream my junior year in high school.

This dream takes place at Irvine High School in a bright cloudless afternoon. My brother Jeff and I were being chased by 4 weird witches. 2 were male, 2 were female. They always tried to disguise themselves as ordinary people, so my brother and I would not think that they were witches. However, they had such a bad conception of style that you could always tell a witch from anyone else. Also, both my brother and I had a radar(like the one from Counterstrike) to see where the witches were. Red dots represented the witches, and green dots were other people. I remember one witch very clearly: she was trying to walk casually up to me, hoping I didn't notice she was a witch. She looked like the old woman from Old Navy commercials. She had those big black and round glasses, a big hat like a sombrero, a tan thatched purse with black edges, and a red polka dot dress. Wow... nice disguise there... however, it was hard to run away from her. The Old Navy witch cast a snare spell, which slowed us down by half. I felt like I was trying to run through maple syrup. Since she was an old lady though, we were still keeping up the pace. My brother and I tried to lose them by going inside the high school. We couldn't evade them though, since the witches always knew where we were. So we gave up, and sat in a room to wait for them to come. We watched our radars as the red dots approached our room. They came in one by one and sat next to us, talking to us. Then the scene totally changed. We were in a car with the witches sitting with us, and a male witch driving. It was at night now, and we were going down a freeway discussing whether Bush or Gore was going to win the election(this was before Bush was elected). I argued that Gore was going to win... oh well I was wrong :P ... I woke up after I said that.

Space Dream(where I learned new vocab)

This is the weirdest dream I have ever had! In this dream I actually learned a new vocabulary word!!! This is also one of my most vivid dreams.

I started my dream onboard a starship. The view was 3rd person, looking at the ship orbit the earth, with many stars in the background. The starship had a bulky square back, and the front was slanted. It kinda looks like this from the side: "|0O0\" Onboard the ship, a human crew member was having a fight with an alien crew member. The alien was green, around a foot taller than the human, and had 12 stubby arms(6 on each side of the body, each around 6 inches long) The alien couldn't really fight with his stubby arms, and the human guy was pulling the alien's arms off, with the alien bleeding red blood. Here's the learning vocab part: The pilot in the cockpit of our ship announced that we were going to enter a "temporal warp". I never even knew the word "temporal" existed at the time, let alone know what it meant. (I looked it up when I woke up, and it means "temporary", which makes sense in the dream!) After he said that, a cool looking warp opened up in front of us. It was not that big, about the diameter of our ship. It had swirling black and yellow colors and a bright white light in the middle. We entered it, and all the colors flew past, just like in Star Trek. We somehow ended up at the Irvine Spectrum. I looked up into the night sky, still with many stars, and saw all these fighter planes in space shooting lasers at each other. One side was shooting green lasers and the other side red. I woke up after that.

Blue Mountain

This is actually a 2-part dream, one dream one night, and the other dream the next night. Both were very vivid dreams.

On the first night: I dreamed that I was going with some church members on a huge hiking/camping trip up this giant blue mountain. I first saw the mountain when we were several miles away. It was very beautiful and grand... the base of the mountain was a very dark blue, and as the altitude increased, the blue became lighter and lighter. The peak went through the cloud cover, and I could barely see the base of the snow cap. I also could see some of the snow streaking down the sides of the mountain. We finally reached the base of this mountain, and I remember unloading Hefty bags full of sleeping bags off our white Mazda pickup truck. The ground there was already laden with snow. We hiked up this snowy trail around 15 feet wide, the snow already packed from previous hikes. There were black and dead pine trees scattered sparsely about. A little to the left you could see the tall blue peak far away. After a while, when night came, we decided to settle and set up camp on the trail to sleep. The wind was howling and was ice cold(even though I didn't feel it). I remember that the color of one of our usher's(Jim) tent was a dark green. I looked out of my tent to see his tent across the trail flapping around from the wind. That night, we all froze to death. The view panned to an overhead camera angle, and you could see all our tents, still flapping in the wind. After that, I woke up.

The next night: We were going to hike up the same mountain again. When we got to the base of the mountain, I reminded everyone "hey remember we died last time we tried to hike up here? Maybe we should turn around." Then everyone was like "oh yeah!" and we turned back. I remember Jim putting his Hefty bag back in our white pickup truck. Then I woke up.

Side note: A few weeks later after that dream I saw an oil painting made by my high school friend Amy Chen. The painting looked surprisingly similar to images from my dream, when our church was hiking up the snowy trail. Amy's painting had a blue mountain peak to the left, exactly what I saw in my dream. There were also black dead pine trees scattered about, and a snow-packed trail that was also around 15 ft wide!!! It was a freakin weird coincidence. She gave me the painting, and I hung it on the wall in my room.

Monkey Hunt

I don't remember when this dream happened, but it was probably in high school.

Our church was in the middle of a forest on a sunny and cool day just resting and standing around outside an old little house. I remember Elijah, the high school pastor, standing with a beige shirt talking with some other church members. All of a sudden, all these monkeys sprang out from behind some trees and rocks to our left, around 30 feet away, and attacked us. They were all brown and furry, with thin metal necks that were 1 inch in diameter. They ran on 2 legs and were about 3 feet tall. The only way to kill them was to snap their thin metal necks, which wasn't very hard to do. Some church members and I ran right up to the monkeys, grabbed them, and snapped their necks with ease. Others ran to get sticks, then smacked their heads off. The monkeys kept on coming from the same direction, so we ran towards that direction, shouting war cries, snapping and whacking more monkeys' heads off. We eventually reached this one rotting log, around 3 feet in diameter, on its side. Behind it was the monkey chief. For some reason there were no more monkeys; they must have all been killed. The chief was around 5 feet tall, and elaborately dressed. He wore a huge headdress and cloak, both embellished with black and white feathers. There was also something red in the center of the cloak. We immediately captured him and brought him back to the old house. We put him in a metal cage which was about 3 ft by 3 ft by 3 ft(so he had to lay down in a fetal position). He begged us to let him go if he gave us something useful. He offered us this gold rod, about 2 ft long, with a red sphere, 1 inch in diameter, embedded at the top. He claimed it could put out forest fires from a long distance away. The scene changed to above a dense forest, with a forest fire about a mile away burning. Then the rod appeared at the bottom of my vision, and the fire went out. The scene then reverted back to where we were. We had not accepted his offer of the fire-extinguishing rod. Then he offered us a scroll of paper that never ran out of paper. The scroll was about 1 ft in length. You could unroll it but never unroll all of it since it was an endless roll of paper. We also refused that offer. Despite how amazing these things were, we never released the poor monkey chief. I woke up soon after.

Swimming

I had this dream also during college in October.

Around 30 church members including me were inside this indoor swimming complex. We were going to compete with 30 other people from another church. There were 2 big swimming pools, one for each church. Both churches were standing at the edge of their pool. The first church whose members swam to the other side and back the fastest would win. As the rules were being announced, I remember seeing some of our members, mostly the girls, being a little cold, their arms folded against their stomachs, shivering. A few were stooping down at the edge, testing the water with their hands. When the race started, I remember everyone jumping in the water and swimming, but I forgot what happened and who won. I only remember that after the race one of my friends, a girl named Emma, was exhausted. A church usher named Victor and I both held her arms and helped her walk. Our church walked to this one house to rest in the middle of a grassy prairie called the "fan house" because there were many fans inside, placed in different areas. It was a nice slighty breezy sunny day outside, and the 2 foot tall green-brown grass swayed in the wind. The house was only one room, with a kitchen stove in the back. There was also a glass sliding door next to the stove, out of which I can see the grass of the prairie, still swaying. There was a white plastic table in the middle of the room and couches placed around the room. As we entered I felt the cool wind from some fans on my left. Emma leaned herself by the stove to catch her breath. Everyone in there was sitting on a couch, with a fan cooling them. I remember our pastor Elijah sitting on a soft beige couch in the corner of the room, with his usual content smile, and a fan to his left blowing. I had to go to the bathroom, so I went. Ok the next part is kinda gross: there was a 12 year old black kid in the urinal next to me, and he challenged me to see who could piss the most. We both pissed sooo much that our urinals were overflowing! I still won anyway. I woke up after that.

The Eye Monster

This was a dream that happened on the night of 11/12/01. It's a little short since I don't remember the beginning.

The earliest part I remember in my dream takes place in my house during the night. A huge eye monster was in front of my house. It was a huge pink blob, with about 30 huge eyes, each eye the size of a piano. The eyes could extend out of their sockets to any length. A few eyes stretched out to look in a few of my house windows. I was with a church friend named Byron on the second floor in my room. We both had the abilities to shoot lasers out our eyes and turn into little fairies like Tinklebell. I was at the window when an eye loomed up to it, around 10 feet away. I tried to shoot my eye laser at him, which was an electric blue color. Unfortunately, my laser was soo weak that it reflected off the window and didn't even hit the huge eye. Then Byron went to another window, pulled it open and shot at the eye with his eye laser(it was red). It didn't hurt it at all; it only drew its attention. The eye moved to his window and began to charge an energy bolt in its eye. I realized it was going to shoot Byron with something, so I shouted at him "Byron! Get outta the way!" But he still stood there shooting his harmless eye laser at it. All of a sudden, a HUGE bright yellow laser(the diameter of the eye itself) exploded out of the eye and obliterated Byron, leaving a huge hole where the window was supposed to be. The wall behind Byron was also obliterated. The damage was so great that I was afraid the whole house would collapse, so I turned into a fairie and flew downstairs, trying to escape from the back of the house. I passed another window, where another huge eye was looking through. It also charged up and shot a laser at me too, going over my left shoulder 5 feet away, missing me and tearing into the stairway and a closet. I flew out the back door, across the backyard, and over the fence as fast as I could. I was flying maybe around 10 mph. I woke up after that, so I think I escaped. YAY!

Orchestra and Cool

What? Orchestra and Cool? hehehe... it will make sense once you read it. I had this dream on 11/13/01.

I dreamed that another friend(dunno who) and I were concertmasters of this one famous string orchestra. We performed in a large auditorium to many students in elementary school. Everyone loved our performance! The next day we also had to perform, but my friend found that something was wrong with the music(i'm not sure what). I thought it was no problem, and said to him that we should continue with the performance, but he was very worried about it. When we got on stage, a elementary school teacher somehow realized my friend's worry. She turned to the elementary school audience, and pulled out a box(around 2 ft by 3 ft base, 1 ft high) that had "Cool" written on it. The box was very colorful, with blue, green, red, and other things that were blurry. "Cool" was written in bubbly red letters on the front side. This box was about 5 feet away from me and my friend(we were still on stage). The teacher announced "Meet Cool" and suddenly, a girl materialized right in front of me, beside the box. She looked like she was around 17. She was definitely asian, lean, around 5 ft tall, and had straight black hair that almost went to her shoulders. The picture was too blurry to see what her face looked like, but I could tell she was quite attractive. The teacher announced that Cool had was going to do some magical thing; I forgot for what purpose. In order for it to work, everyone had to hold hands so her "energy" could go through them. All the kids in the audience shifted toward everyone else to hold hands. Everyone in the orchestra sat on the floor of the stage and also held hands. I was happy because I got to hold Cool's hand! We all bowed our heads, and closed our eyes, about experience something wonderful... then my mom screamed "LOGAN! WAKE UP!!!" and I woke up. NOOOOO......

Water Fight

Kind of a blurry dream, but I remember one part pretty clearly. This dream occured on 11/26/01

My brother and I were having water fights in different arenas and places. The only place I remember clearly is the "train". This 3-car brown train was very small: the center car was about 3ft by 2ft and 1 ft high, and the end cars were about 2ft by 2ft and also 1 ft high. The train was also moving slowly, around half of walking speed, along a miniature straight track around maybe 1 ft wide. My brother and I were on top of this train on each end car armed with two little water guns. Whoever shot the other person with a certain amount of water first(maybe like a gallon) would win. Also, if you fell off the small train, you would automatically lose. So we started shooting each other, trying the best we could to dodge each other's shots. He started to come toward me, intending to push me off the train. I immediately leaned foward against him, so we were both holding each other's shoulders. Then I noticed that there was a fountain on top of the middle car where my brother was standing. It shot a few streams of water around 1 inch in diameter about 1 ft high. I pushed him into it, and he took lots of damage from that and lost. I could tell he was upset afterwards. Beyond that point I forgot the rest of the dream.

The Rock Band

Pretty cool dream that happened on 12/17/01... that day I spent a long time trying to compose a new song on FruityLoops.

I was visiting a few friends at UCSB. I was riding in a car, driving along a sandy worn out road in the middle of a desert. The sky was blue and cloudless, and the overall atmosphere seemed quite hot. I saw UCSB on the right as we approached it. I also saw a huge white air jump(that thing where you can jump around in) that my friends had rented. I met my friends, who had AIM-like names, next to the air jump. One friend was a girl named something like "LarkAngel", and the other was a guy named something like "Frost228". We all jumped for a little while inside the air jump. There were all these basketball hoops attached to all the sides inside of the jump, and we were trying to shoot hoops while jumping. Frost228 let out a cry of joy since he had just thrown the ball and it had gone through 2 hoops. Later I learned that my friends were in a rock band named something like "DX7", and they invited me to join it to play at a concert. I turned out to be the lead guitarist. At the concert, I stood to the right of all the other players on a small stage. To my horror, I didn't even know what notes to play! I just played the notes I thought would work, and luckily they all did! In fact, I played my guitar with expert skill. I fitted in very well as the lead guitarist, and the concert was a great success. After the concert, I said my goodbyes to my friends(at this time the sky was almost dark). I said bye to Frost228 first, then talked with LarkAngel a little while walking to her condo, which a had biege outside with a brown garage door. We said goodbye, and she turned and walked toward her condo, and I turned around and started walking the other direction. After that I woke up.

Evil Army Commander

Argh I play too much Counterstrike... This long dream happened on 1/4/02

The setting started at some kind of business complex during the night. The complex consisted of 2 adjacent four-story buildings joined together by a catwalk on the second floor. My whole family and I were on the roof of the first building. Meanwhile, on the ground were the evil army commander and his squad of around 20 men, intent on killing all of us. The only thing we had for our defense was a silenced sniper rifle(for those who play CS, like the scout). The commander had just ordered his men to search the building where we were situated. A little while later, a line of soldiers appeared on the catwalk directly under me, walking to the other building. I took the sniper rifle and aimed at the soldier in front. I shot him in the head and he crumpled in front of the other soldiers. They took a step back and looked around frantically, not in my direction yet. I took aim and downed the next soldier in front. Panicking, the rest of the soldiers fled to the 2nd building and searched for us there. One unlucky soldier stopped next to the window, so I shot him, partly shattering the glass. Then a few more looked out the other windows and saw me, finally discovering our family's position. For some reason at that moment we discovered we could fly, so we started to fly off, leaving the rifle behind. The commander and his men came out of the building and saw us. We hovered in midair and looked at them in an almost mocking gesture. However, to our and his soldiers' surprise, the commander also took off and hovered around 30 ft from us(just like in DBZ). We knew he was more powerful than us, so we fled. In order to be transported to safety we had to fly to a building called the "Tower of Logan". Unfortunately he was faster than us, so we had to evade him somehow. There was a forest nearby, so we flew under, over and between branches, hopefully slowing him down. Since I was dumb, I tried to fly through a 6-inch gap between 2 4-inch thick branches and I got stuck. Fortunately, I was able to free myself within a few seconds and continue flying. Finally, in the middle of the forest, we reached the Tower of Logan! It looked exactly like the Seattle Space Needle, but only 50 ft high. At the top we had to get into these thin horizontal slots, like ones that accept coins. In order to do this, we transformed into little pieces of beef jerky and wedged ourselves inside. We were instantly teleported to some remote ranch somewhere else on earth. The night sky was filled mostly with dark rain clouds, but there were these weird neon blue, purple and red cloud patches everywhere. There were attendants there ready to relocate us to a top secret base located inside a volcano in India(they showed us a map). Before we left I wanted to take a picture of our family at the ranch, with those weird clouds too, so my dad asked an attendant to take the picture for us. We said goodbye to the attendants, and a guide(who also could fly) led us to the volcano. The brown-green volcano was calm when we arrived, but when we got close to the peak, it erupted, shooting streams of lava high in the air. The guide gestured us to follow him, and he dove right into the mouth of the volcano! We were like "ookkk...." and followed him in. It was like swimming in warm maple syrup. We ended up inside the security room of the base. There were many security camera TVs on the wall, watching the perimeter. To our horror, in a river next to the volcano were the commander and his men paddling toward us in a canoe. They didn't know where our base was yet, but suspected it was inside the volcano. They landed on the shore, and the commander handed out shovels to the soldiers and ordered them to start digging. We watched the screen with apprehension, hoping that they would become impatient and give up. When they were only a few feet from the concrete shell of the base, streams of lava broke out the side of the mountain, scattering them in different directions. After that they stopped digging, and all of us were relieved. Then I woke up.

Tarzan Family and Evil Cowboy

I got this weird dream on 1/13/02 after I saw George of the Jungle.

The scene started on a bright sunny afternoon in the middle of a jungle. Our family was like a Tarzan family or something because we all wore clothes made out of hides and possessed vine-swinging skillz. My family was cooking food around a fire, and I was practicing my swinging. To practice my precision, I was going to try to swing down and snatch a tiny t-bone steak(1 inch by 1 inch) off a tree stump that was near my family. From a high hill around 500 ft away from them, I grabbed my vine and leaped. On the way down I narrowly missed the trunks of 2 big trees. Unfortunately, the branches and leaves from those trees slowed my momentum, so I swung short of my target. Suddenly the scene totally changed. I was in someone's house in a suburban neighborhood at maybe around 6:00pm. The house was nicely lit, and I saw a white baby's crib in one room. A friend of mine(dunno who) was trying to fight this evil cowboy there. The cowboy was around 5'5", around 20 years old, and had short blond hair like Leonardo DiCaprio. He was in full cowboy attire, wearing a brown cowboy hat, a yellowish shirt, a brown leather vest and pants, and the like. Unfortunately he was very good fighter, and was wasting my friend. The cowboy was beating him up in a weird manner though. Maybe as a mocking gesture, he has his left hand behind his back while swinging his other fist around in the fashion of an infinity symbol(sideways 8) and hitting my friend. I tried to help my friend by kicking the cowboy as hard as i could on the hip. It was like kicking a concrete wall; he didn't even budge and kept on swinging. My friend finally fell down(he probably died) and the cowboy turned his attention toward me, looking at me with a mocking smirk. He walked toward me slowly and I turned and ran out the front door of the house, looking for a place to hide. I considered hiding in the bushes next to the house, but I knew that the cowboy was too smart for that. I ran across the lawn toward the street, accidentally scraping against the bushes loudly. The cowboy yelled after me in a teasing hick voice these near exact words: "You ain't gonna hide from me that good if you gonna be making all those negative sounds!" (yes, he said 'negative sounds', what a dork). I spotted a light green PT Cruiser parked next to the sidewalk and I hid behind it. The cowboy walked to the sidewalk, and since the car I was behind was the only place to hide, he knew I was behind there. He walked on the sidewalk toward the car with his evil teasing grin. I panicked, but then I remembered that it was a dream, so I thought to myself "I'm invisible" and so I was! Unfortunately, I could still be heard, so I backed away from the car slowly, trying not to make a sound. He was walking past the side of the car at this point, expecting to find me behind the car. When I wasn't there, his grin instantly changed to a blank expression of surpise. He stopped there, around 10 ft away from me, and held his chin with his right hand, thinking where I could have went. He started to walk toward me, so I tried to back out of his way, as carefully as possible. To my horror, I accidentally scraped the ground with my shoe, and he looked sharply in my direction(I was around 5 ft away from him). He took a few steps toward me, and I panicked and stood there. He stopped again 2 feet in front of me, holding his chin with his right hand again, looking right through me. I realized again that it was a dream, so I decided in my mind "teleport 400 ft away from here". In order to teleport I had to make a sound from my mouth that sounded like "bloung". So, I yelled "BLOUNG!!!" very loudly right in front of his face and he was so startled that he jumped and his hat fell off. Afterwards I teleported away 400 feet away, floating in the air about 100 ft above the neighborhood. After that I flew away, as far as I could. Suddenly I was back in the jungle with my family again, only this time it was at night. I was on the same hill, reattempting my steak-grab run. The jungle behind me was scaring me since it was dark, so I yelled to my family "this is my last run!" I grabbed my vine and leaped. This time, on the way down, I climbed around 5 ft up the vine (with great ease), and this somehow changed my swing. At that position, my vine swung cleanly around the 2 problem trees I had brushed against last time. I swung around to the tree stump perfectly, but I found that the t-bone steak was not on the stump. So, I landed right beside it and asked my mom where the steak was. She said "oh sorry, here you go", reached down, picked up the steak from a crude wooden cabinet that we had made, and gave it to me. She probably thought no one was using it so she had put it away. After that I woke up.

Polish vs Germans

I dunno why I got this war-related dream on 1/14/02... I haven't even played much Counterstrike lately.

I was Polish and hiding out with others in a military complex guarded by fellow Polish guards. The tall black complex used to belong to the Germans, but we had taken over their camp and stolen their green uniforms to appear as Germans. This complex was quite huge; it was the width and length of 4 houses, around 20 stories tall and 20 stories underground! The shape is hard to describe... it was like a tall black 4-sided Pentagon with a 20-story deep hole in the middle. There was also a chain link fence surrounding the building. I was somewhere underground(maybe around the 10th floor underground) searching for information on a computer about this crime lord named something like "Mortimori". The empty room(around 12ft by 12ft) had dull grey concrete walls. A 12 year old girl from my church named Carolyn, who was a secret service agent, came to help me look for the crime lord. She went to some social security number search engine(that looked like Yahoo!) and typed Mortimori's social security number, which was something like "627- b- 3262- 34-" (I know the "b-" and the other hyphens were there, but I'm not sure about the numbers). Two documents came up, one with a 99% match and the other 28% (I remember that clearly). Of course she clicked on the 99% document. When we were about to find information about "Mortimori" we were interrupted by an alert. A German patrol had arrived to check our camp's condition. The view changed to outside the camp, watching the Germans (around 20 of them plus a tank) approach our German-dressed Polish guards(we had around 10 men). They all were talking, with our guards telling them that everything was ok. The Germans weren't suspecting a thing yet, but then someone turned on a TV inside the complex that had Polish news on. It was on the second floor by the window where the Germans were(they were about 30 ft away from the window). Muffled Polish speech could be heard and the TV colors reflected off the edges of the window. Most of the Germans didn't notice, but one who was closer to the window did and somehow figured out that we were all Polish. He was running back toward the other Germans, shouting with a German accent "Polish! Polish!" All of a sudden our guards opened fire with AKs on the Germans, gunning some of them down as they fled for cover. Unfortunately, we were still outgunned(since they had a tank and were returning fire). I remember one Polish guard in front getting pumped full of bullets and falling down. Fortunately, we somehow still won the bloody battle with men to spare. We had even captured the tank. I woke up after that.

Random Dream

I named the dream "Random Dream" for lack of a better way to describe it... this dream happened on 2/24/02

I started in this huge multilevel water amusement park on a bright and sunny day. I didn't get a clear picture of what the place looked like, but I remember being inside a large building with a swimming pool. I was staring at the entrance to the building(which was part of this huge park) as people in swimming trunks walked in. I had lost my shoe and was trying to look for it among the many people walking around. Of course, I knew it was hopeless to find, since it was lost inside the huge park somewhere, but I walked around looking for it anyway. I walked in this nursery with a whole bunch of college students sitting in a circle reading nursery books. When I went up to them, I found that they were playing "guess the movie". They all stood up and walked to a balcony(we were about 3 stories off the ground). One person asked "what movie is this?" and pointed to the distance. The view outside had a western setting. There were old brown wooden buildings scattered around on the ground as well as a brown wooden water tower to our left(about 6 stories high and around 500 feet away). All of a sudden, a small grey fighter jet appeared to the right and flew right into the water tower, causing it to explode in a bright orange cloud of flames. After that, the guy who had asked the question looked at everyone else, seeing if anyone knew what movie that was. Of course I didn't have a clue, but someone yelled out "that's easy, its Goldeneye!" and everyone said "oohhhhhh". Suddenly, I somehow teleported to my garage. In my garage I had a fire truck, so I decided to take it for a drive. I got in the fire truck, turned on my siren and started driving around. The view outside my house looked like Taiwan. Night had come, and there were many Chinese people walking up and down the narrow poorly maintained streets, browsing the various food stands scattered around. To my annoyance, the people hardly payed attention to me as I tried to drive around them. They would not notice my fire truck, with the siren going off, until I drove up very close to them. Only then would they look at me, then slowly move out of the way. Finally, I ended up at some supermarket and got out of my truck. While I was browsing inside, I met a friend(dunno who) so I grabbed this small yellow candied egg off the shelf and offered it to him. The egg was about 3 inches long and 1 inch wide. He graciously accepted the gift and left. I decided to have one myself, so I grabbed a purple one and took a bite out of it. It tasted sweet, but then my stomach started to hurt(yes, inside my dreams I can feel pain). Holding my stomach with one hand, I peered at the other half of the egg, trying to determine what I just ate. All of a sudden, the egg started to expand and foam into this tan-colored bubbly goo. Then I realized that the egg contained yeast and that it was used for cooking. My stomach was hurting because of the egg expanding and building pressure inside me. After that, I woke up to find that my stomach really WAS hurting. It turned out that I had become a little sick.

The Matrix

Cool long chase dream that happened on 3/9/02

I started inside my house in the middle of the afternoon. Looking out the window in front of my house, I saw a shiny black Mercedes pull up in front of my driveway. 3 men and 1 woman got out, all wearing shades and black trench coats, sorta like the agents from the movie "The Matrix". Fortunately for me, they were unarmed and couldn't transport themselves into other people's bodies like they did in the movie. They were walking toward the front door so I tried to escape via the garage(the garage door was already open). Unfortunately, when I got to the garage, a man and the woman appeared from the right(the man had balding dark brown hair and the woman had short brown tied-back hair). I turned around as fast as I could(since I was running at full speed), and the man tried to grab me, just touching the edge of my jacket(I was wearing a gray jacket). I ran back into the house and up the stairs, hiding in my brother's room. They calmly walked up the stairs and split up by having a person search each room. With precise timing, I evaded the balding guy without his seeing me and ran downstairs, outside, and into my car. I started the car and drove off as fast as I could. Of course they heard me do all of this, so they got into their car and chased me. After driving for a while, they cornered me in a parking lot next to a dense forest. I quickly jumped out of the car, got on a nearby black motorcycle and drove into the woods, hoping the forest was too dense for their car to follow. When I got into the woods where they couldn't see me, I decided to teleport so that they would not know that I had disappeared. So, I thought "teleport" to myself and I appeared in this limbo (it was black everywhere) where you are nonexistent. Here I could decide where to telport, so I teleported myself to the peak of some big remote green hill in the middle of nowhere. I sat there, wondering if they would find me there. Not surprisingly, the agents arrived on the scene, walking near the bottom of the hill. I immediately laid down(since there was no other place to hide) and hoped that they couldn't recognize me at that distance(they were around 1000 ft away). They spotted me, but they couldn't make out what the figure was, so they sent their biggest guy to investigate. I hoped that he would just dismiss me as a rock or something and return, but the big guy kept on coming. As he got closer, I could tell he was around 6'5" tall with short black hair. I knew he was going to discover me, but I still didn't want to run, cuz I could teleport anyway :). When he was 20 ft away from me, he said "Hey, there's a person over here" and started running toward me. Just as he was about to grab me, I thought "teleport". Instantly I was transported to the black limbo where I was nonexistent. There, I thought where the best place to teleport would be. After thinking a few seconds, I decided to go to China. There were many Chinese people walking in a marketplace by a dock when I reappeared. It was night here(other side of the world of course). I was on a wide wooden pier, with the ocean to my left and a 30-ft wide uphill black gravel road to my right. At the top of the hill to the left of the gravel road stood a warehouse. I knew they would probably still find me here, so I headed toward the warehouse. As I strolled up the gravel road I met 2 church friends. I greeted Rex, who was walking toward the dock, and Janice, who was walking in the same direction as me. Finally I got to the warehouse, which was pretty big. It was one big room around 500 ft by 500 ft and 3 stories high filled entirely with many tall shelves of suitcases(the shelves were also 3 stories tall). There was a brown wooden table(5 ft by 3 ft, 3ft high) in the middle of the room. I knew that the agents would be here any second, so I turned into a leaf(green, about 3 in long and 2 in wide) and hid inside a light blue suitcase. After that the view panned to a view of the warehouse entrance and the table. As I expected, all four agents walked through the entrance and to the table, looking at all the suitcases on the shelves. The balding guy ordered all of them to start searching the suitcases, so they all started taking suitcases off the shelves, opening and searching them. The balding guy looked at his watch and yelled "Hurry! Logan's gonna wake up soon!", so everyone searched more frantically. Fortunately, they were nowhere near me, so finally I woke up and escaped from my dream. YAY!

Sinking Ship

A heroic dream I had on 3/20...

My dream started aboard a huge cruise liner. My family and many other passengers were sitting in one of the compartments in the ship. The seats were arranged like ones in an airplane(not a very comfortable cruise I guess). Suddenly the captain appeared in the room with a look of controlled despair on his face. He was a white man in his 50's and wore a black suit with buttons along with a black sailing hat. The captain calmly informed us that the ship was sinking and that he needed brave volunteers to find and stop the leak in the engine room. I remember hearing the word "suicide" in his speech. 2 adults 3 rows in front of my family raised their hands to volunteer. Out of my magnanimous courage, I also decided to volunteer(actually it was because I thought it would make my dream more exciting). The captain handed each of us SCUBA gear and a pocket knife to stop the leak(dunno how I would stop a leak with a knife). We walked down a slanted hallway toward the surface of the sea water to meet with the other volunteers(around 20 total). We all then jumped in the water and swam in different directions looking for the engine room. Even though we were quite deep underwater, all the rooms were still brightly lit. While I was looking around, I noticed that most of the volunteers weren't even searching, they were partying! I swam into a bedroom to find a boom box playing music and people in their SCUBA gear dancing. I tried to warn everyone that they were wasting their oxygen, but they just ignored me. Only 2 other girls swimming with me were dedicated to our task, so we swam elsewhere to find the engine room. We dead ended at the ship's bridge, so we stood there discussing where we should go. All of a sudden the floor gave way and we fell into the engine room. For some reason the water there was only waist deep(the water from above didn't pour in). The engine room(around 15 ft by 30 ft and 10 ft high) was filled with shelves of cardboard boxes and the walls were white concrete. We walked along the wall and finally found the leak, which was a hole in the wall about 1 inch in diameter. The hole was at eye level and a small stream of water was coming out of it. In order to stop it, I took a nearby shiny metal cap(like a radiator cap in a car) and stuffed it in the hole. After that I woke up.

Wierd Race

A vivid dream I had on 3/21...

My dream started in a room at the top floor of the Sears Tower in New York City(it's actually in Chicago) during the afternoon. There a race was to be held between me and another girl named Michelle(no one I knew). I never got a clear view of how she looked. The race rules: The competitors are given a piece of paper with 3 puzzles. They then must fly to a certain location in the country while solving the 3 puzzles. The target location will have a box where the solved puzzles are deposited. After the deposit the competitors must fly back to the top floor of the Sears Tower. First place goes to the person who solves all puzzles and returns first. Michelle and I were both finalists in this type of race, so we both were supposed to be experts at what we did. Of course I didn't know what the race was like, so I just pretended to be good. Our selected target location was a remote church somewhere in Alabama. When the race started, I let Michelle go first because she knew where the church was and I didn't(of course I just pretended I knew and that she was just faster than me). We were flying around 500 ft above the countryside while trying to solve the puzzles on our papers, which were very difficult. I couldn't even read the questions(since in a dream you can't really read)! Fortunately for me, something happened. A senile grandma standing on the ground below saw us and launched a surface-to-air missle at us! The missle exploded right in front of Michelle, damaging her paper and making her puzzles impossible to read. She still continued in the race anyway. We both finally reached the remote church in the middle of Alabama. The church was small(around 30 by 50 ft) and biege colored. It had glass windows and doors, as well as a 20 ft high steeple. We didn't even bother to use the doors; we crashed right through the windows. There we deposited our puzzles in the small wooden box and left. Michelle didn't complete her puzzles but I did, so it looked like I had won! We both raced back to New York City(it was night now) back over the countryside. Michelle was chasing me all the way back and hitting me in different places. For example, she would grab my arm and punch me under the armpit, then do the same with my other arm. I just thought that she was upset or something. During the whole way back I was trying to evade her, and I accidentally found my way back to New York City. When the Sears Tower was only a mile away, Michelle grabbed my leg then punched me in the crotch(didn't hurt :P). After she did that, a window(like from Windows) popped into my vision, announcing that she had completed a hidden objective: to hit your opponent in certain areas to tie the race. We both returned to the top floor, where Michelle was laughing since she tied the race when I should have won. Another window popped up, asking "Do you forgive Michelle for what she did?" Even though I was upset, I chose "yes" in hopes that she would like me. I never found out if she did though because I woke up.

Prison

7/18/02

I was flying over the Pacific in a fighter jet in order to save China from nuclear destruction and to evangelize Christianity. Somehow, I was captured somewhere over China and ended up in this multilevel prison. There were stairways everywhere leading to upper and lower floors. The walls were metallic and gray, with a few barred windows. Outside the window I could see dark clouds hiding the sun. I met another girl inside the prison, and we quickly became friends (but I dunno her name). Each day, the warden (a really fat guy) came to give us our rations. We were allowed to choose only one item from 6: a raw egg, a fortune cookie, a cell phone with 1 call, a banana, and I forgot the other 2. I took the egg, since it looked like the most nutritious item there. The girl, on the other hand, was desperate to leave the prison. She chose the cell phone to call her dad "Danny" to break her out. While she was dialing, she asked me what time it was. I looked at a nearby clock and saw it was around 6:40, but my watch said 9:00. I told her it was 6:40, and she dropped the phone in disappointment, as if she were not able to contact her dad at that time. After that, the girl asked the warden if she could have more rations, but he rebuffed her plea.

Snake

A short dream on 10/14/02

My brother and I were walking in the backyard when we saw this green cobra coiled up in the middle of the walkway, around 5 ft away. The snake immediately lunged and tried to strike me in the leg, but I caught it in midair. I then held its head and grinded its fangs on the side of our house until they were little harmless stubs. I woke up afterwards.

Ice Cream Final

I currently work at the ice cream store Swensen's, and had this annoying dream on 12/28/02

I was in this ice cream class, inside a normal looking classroom with about 20 students. The next day the was the ice cream final, which I knew nothing about. The teacher, a nerdy looking guy who had long brown hair, was giving a review of the material we covered in the course. He was explaining how to properly arrange gumballs on a particular ice cream dish. In addition, there were 2 homework assignments that were due the next day(one was on pg 160 in the book), and I didn't have the book to do the assignments. I woke up still believing that I had this final and 2 assignments to do, so I had to hit my head and say to myself "I'm on winter break!"

Another Ice Cream Dream

Another annoying dream about ice cream on 1/04/03

I was working at Swensen's at around maybe 5:00pm (the sky was kinda dark outside), and this guy walks in wanting this really huge sundae that has 10 flavors in it. While I'm making this huge sundae, another woman comes in, interrupting me by asking for "20 pieces of coconut pineapple in a cup". I was like "what the heck are 'pieces'???", and she said "oh, each piece is (something like 2.27) ounces". After that, another female friend I knew(not sure who it was tho) came in and asked if I wanted to work out with her at a gym. I said "ok, after work" but felt wierd because I did not know where this gym was.
