DREAMSWhat did you dream about last night? Daniel: To be honest, I can't remember what I dreamt about last night, even though I've just got up, but the night before I dreamt I shot Will Smith! Everyone put flowers down where he'd died and I felt really, really bad about it. It was horrible because I felt what it would be like to kill someone. I didn't like it. But then his spirit came back into my body and I started dancing like him! Darren: I dream a lot, but I have real trouble remembering them. this sounds really stupid, but Daniel was teaching me to fly the other night and geese kept landing on my shoulders! I dream about flying a lot, but I get scared I'm going to fall out of the sky. Do you daydream much? Darren: I Daydream a Lot. My eyes focus on something and I can't move them. I'm not even looking at whatever it is that I'm stating at. i do it mainly when I'm tired, though. i think me life's just one big daydream anyway! Daniel: When I'm falling asleep I get this sort of spiritual thing where I hear a humming sound and I realize my body's asleep and my mind's not. It's like my body's not there anymore. I go into another dimension where I open my eyes, but they're not really open and you can see the room. Darren: I love it when you talk about that. I don't think that happens to many people. It's a really special thing. Daniel: It's really freaky 'coz it's like being half asleep and half awake. Do you ever have nightmares? Darren: I did for a while after I was held up with a sawn -off-shotgun when I was working in the video store! I had the gun right in my face and these guys were really violent and horrible. For ages after that I had nightmares that they were really breaking into my house. I really freaked out afterwards 'coz I could easily have been killed. It only took a dog to bark at me to make burst into tears. In my dreams these two guys were breaking into my house and I'd wake up in an icy cold sweat. It was horrible. I don't have many nightmares these days, though. Daniel: I've had ones about being run over and stuff, but not that often. Have you had any sleepy-type dreams that've come true? Daniel: When I was about 16, working as a printer, I had a dream that I cut off my fingers. I worked with my brother's girlfriend at the time, Fiona, and I went into work and told her about the dream. I said, 'I hope dreams don't come true,' because that's the last thing I'd want to happen to me, being a musician and everything, And then that afternoon I trapped my finger in the printing machine and injured it. I didn't cut it off thank God, but it was really scary! |
