August 12, 2013 (Nap Dream)

Mom and I were sitting at a table doing one another’s make-up. She put these really crazy colors on me, like a rainbow and when I looked in the mirror I just busted up laughing, because it looked so funny. She got offended a little and asked what was so funny. I could tell that I hurt her feelings, so I stopped laughing and said nothing really, I was just messing with you; it looks really nice mom. When it was my turn to put her makeup on I didn’t know what to do. So I just decided to put it on like I normally would put on makeup. She looked in the mirror and started laughing hysterically. I was like, what’s so funny, mom? She said it was just all the colors looked so strange. Not understanding what she meant, I swiveled her chair around to face me, so I could see her makeup. It looked normal to me, a neutral look. I didn’t say anything, and just turned her back towards her mirror. When I glanced in the mirror though, all her makeup was different colors, and it did look funny! It kind of freaked me out and I felt a bit spooked with things looking different in the mirror than they did in real life.

The next part of my dream, I was sharing dinner with a friend, although I don’t remember who he was. I don’t recognize him from real life, but in my dream he was a good friend. I asked him what he was dreaming about and he said that he had funny dreams most of the time. He shared some of them with me, and we were laughing together. Then he looked at me and got all serious. He said isn’t there something that you’re forgetting right now? I thought about it but couldn’t figure out what he was talking about. So I asked him what do you mean? He told me to think harder and I could come up with the answer by myself. Then before I could question him anymore, he got up and walked away.

All of a sudden I was outside and it was raining. I heard that guy’s voice again, but I couldn’t see him anywhere. He asked me if I knew yet. I was like…know what?? The voice asked me, what would you like to see happen right now. Since it was raining and I was getting soaked, I said I’d like it to be sunny and warm outside. The instant I said it, the rain stopped and it was a beautiful sunny day. Blue skies and I was dry instead of wet. I didn’t say anything, was too busy looking around and trying to figure out what was going on. From down the street he came walking towards me. He looked really mysterious, but not scary. Once he got to me, he said to me, you know what I did right? I answered yes, you made the rain stop. Then he told me, no I didn’t do that, you did. What are you forgetting right now? As soon as he said that I knew what he meant, and I smiled. I looked at him and said you’re lucid aren’t you? Then I woke up.

*Now that was a really awesome dream. I love the way my DC was giving me clues that I was dreaming and could be lucid if I would only remember. At least that’s how I interpreted my dream. Maybe that could possibly mean I’m getting closer to becoming lucid. *

August 11, 2013 (Dream I had last night. Woke up at 2:45 and wrote my dream in journal)

I woke up at about 2:45 this morning and remembered part of my dream. I was on a road, like a long winding highway riding a bicycle really fast (more the speed of a motorcycle). The road was really smooth and paved at first. But as I got further and further the pavement started to break until soon it was rocky and all broken up. I had to slow way down and at one point I couldn’t even ride anymore. Out of nowhere, somebody was with me and I remember complaining to them about it, saying that with all the taxes we pay, they really should fix the roads.

There was another part to this dream that was really fuzzy, but I was on my bike and needed to go through this neighborhood that was very scary to me. It was dark and there were strange people outside. They had guns and knives and were just roaming around the neighborhood. I was alone and didn’t want to go through there, but it was the only way home. I started to pedal across this road, and realized that I was lost! I was feeling in danger and didn’t know how to get out of the neighborhood.

Next thing I remember is being in a car with my mom. We were going somewhere that we had been many times before. But neither one of us could remember how to get there. There was a woman at a stoplight so mom pulled up to her and asked if she knew how to get to the place we were going. The lady gave directions and mom said, “Well I could also just turn left at this light and keep going straight until I get there. Yeah that’s the way I’ll take, it’ll be easier than the way you just said to go.”

I thought to myself, she did know how to get there. So why did she ask this lady for directions if she already knew. Then I woke up.

August 11, 2013 (Dream During Nap)

We were at a bowling alley. It was dark and raining outside. Shawn called me on my cell; he was hysterical and told me that people were trying to kill him. I told him I’m in the parking lot and to come outside that I would meet him at the door. Jump in the car and we’ll get the hell out of here. We hung up and I started the car. It started but it wouldn’t move. I couldn’t get the car to go into Drive or Reverse. All of sudden all these people started pounding on the doors and glass trying to break it. They were yelling that they were going to kill me and still, the car would not move. Finally I got it to go into reverse, but when I backed up there was a hole behind me and my car just slid down to the bottom and I was stuck there. Here comes the crowd of people, so I jump out of the car and run to the building. I have to get across the parking lot and they’re chasing me. I hear a gun fire behind me, and I’m thinking okay this is it, Im dead. They’re goanna kill me.

Running as fast as I can, I weave back and forth until I get to the front door to the bowling alley. I rip the door open and run inside. There are a lot of people there but I don’t see my son anywhere. I keep thinking to myself that I need to find a cop and my son. The people that were chasing me are still outside, so I go looking around inside the bowling alley. There’s a large man sitting at a desk with a huge stack of money. I run up to him and tell him that I need help; people tried to kill me and my son is missing. The guy continues counting his money and then he slowly looks up at me. He tells me to come with him. Leaving the money sitting there, he walks to an area near the doors I came in. He gives me a letter and tells me to read this and I’ll be completely safe from the man that was firing off rounds. So I read the letter and immediately walk outside. I go find the guy that was shooting at me. As soon as he sees me he points the gun at my head. Real quick like, before he fires the gun, I tell him that I have a letter from his sister. He looks at me with a shocked expression on his face, and lowers the gun. He begins to cry and we walk into the bowling alley together. We sit down and I begin to read the letter. After I finish reading it, I look up at him and he tells me that he’s so sorry for trying to kill me. I tell him that I forgive him and that he doesn’t have to do these kinds of things. He says that I don’t understand what’s going on, and that I need to get my son and get out of here. So, I leave and go looking for him. He’s nowhere, so I figuring he has to be outside somewhere, I walk out the door and run to the center of the parking lot. Once I get out there, it turns pitch black. I can’t see anything at all. Just blackness all around me. I hear the people who were chasing me earlier and I’m scared. I decide to try and make my way back to the building very slowly. I’m stumbling into cars and people, but finally make it.

Once inside, the building is no longer a bowling alley. Now it’s the DMV and my mother and brother are there. Mom asks me to put on these really super high heels before we go get in the car. They don’t fit, but I do as she asks anyway. She has on the same type shoes and my brother tells me to be sure and hold onto mom so she doesn’t fall down. I get irritated and tell him that I’m not stupid! I know to hold on to mother. I go to help mom and she doesn’t want the help, so I tell her I want the help then. We walk to the car hand in hand. Once inside the car, my brother says he wants to show me something. The car is a kia but as soon as he says he wants to show me something, it changes into a nice racing car and I’m in the driver’s seat. He begins to buckle me in and hands me a gun. He says to be very careful with both the car and gun; but that both will offer protection should I ever find myself in similar situations. I’m just getting ready to see how fast the car can go when I wake up.

*Now that I’m awake I find myself wondering: What was in that letter??*
