PART 1 - PLAYING SC2 WITH G Playing my friend G in Starcraft 2. They don't actually play IRL. This part won't make any sense to anyone who doesn't play... I was Zerg at some points and Protoss at others... it's one of those weird dream effects where both are sort of true at the same time. I expand twice with no army, they attack before I can make one and win. We have a rematch, this time I'm careful not to over-extend myself, I make a bunch of Photon Cannons. We don't get to finish the game for some reason, it ends before any real battles happen. ANALYSIS The thing that stands out most to me is the symbolism of proactive/reactive, or offensive/defensive. I would say I tend to act in a reactive way around this friend. Perhaps the game was a metaphor for this. - - - PART 2 - WEBCAM WITH G Next, G turns on a webcam. It's starting to get late. They are in some sort of party environment... loud music in the background. At one point this music production guy that G is working with (in the dream) comes on cam. Short hair, black t-shirt, mid 30s, quite buff. Don't remember anything he says. ANALYSIS This seems to relate to the fact that IRL G "has things going on" in their life, while I'm still at a point of preparing for the future, without much of note happening in mine. - - - PART 3 - WRONG TURN DOWN A LONG, WINDING ROAD Now, it's dark. I leave the house, presumably where the above scenarios took place. I'm riding a bike, presumably headed "home" (wherever that is in this particular dream world.) I take a long turn down a long, winding, isolated, spooky road. It goes on as far as I can see. There are bushes on either side. Once, maybe twice, an old guy (60+) passes me going the opposite direction in a car. I'm singing to myself out loud about how I don't want to get attacked. At some point I realize I'm going the wrong way and turn around, right at a sharp U turn in the road. As I do, a lanky older guy (40+) with glasses, narrow face and messy brown hair, possibly wearing a trench coat (or I may just be adding that retrospectively) starts following me. I stop and tell him to wait in place for a bit until I'm farther ahead, he does so. I have a rectangular knife for protection but don't have to use it. ANALYSIS I'm constantly thinking about what paths to take in life, planning my future, repetitively reevaluating the conclusions I come to. When I come to a conclusion I often jump "all in"; but often, I change my mind and jump back "all out." All or nothing. On a symbolic level the first thing that comes to mind is that I almost decided to spend the next year hardcore studying online poker, but decided against it after hearing even the best can often go upwards of a full year with little winnings on a downswing. Could have been a lot of time and effort spent in a less than optimal way, may also explain the sense of risk.
Note: I have been having a lot of nights lately where I can't recall much in the way of my dreams, sometimes not remembering any at all. This is getting rather frustrating. I focused on one goal as I fell asleep tonight, I have been intending to go to MoSh's inner world and make sure Asuka is ok, MoSh has suggested she might need healing. I focused on this goal and managed to slip into a WILD… I was in MoSh's inner world. This was a familiar sight to me, and the appearance of his house continued to remain unchanging. I stood in the yard for a short time before approaching the front door and knocking. The door opened shortly later and I saw Asuka standing there with a bright smile on her face. My first impression was that there was nothing wrong with her, she seemed to feel fine. I did an energy scan and her energy looked fine as well. She invited me into the house where I found MoSh kicked back in the living room watching a big flat screen television. I looked closer and saw it wasn't a television show on there, rather it was a video game. I didn't recognize the game, so I asked MoSh what he was playing. He said he was playing the new Starcraft game. He did a couple more things, dropped a curse word, and then said he had been distracted by me and now he was dead. I muttered an apology, though I wasn't sure how I had managed to distract him enough that he would lose a strategy game like Starcraft. MoSh didn't actually seem upset about the game, he asked what I had come over for. I said he had indicated that maybe Asuka had needed healing; I asked if she was still in need of healing. He said some extra healing energy could never do any harm, so I might as well go ahead and do it. For some reason I thought it was a good idea to take us all to the healing glen to do the healing, so I opened a portal and took MoSh and Asuka with me through. On the other side we were in a healing glen, but it was the one in the biodome rather than the one where the Crystal Golem lives. There were a few other people there to include Nomad, Basara, and Pablo, and we all did a group healing. The glen was filled with some very relaxing golden energy. The energy was so relaxing that it felt like I might just wake up right there, but I didn't want to. I was in a lucid dream finally, and I wanted it to last longer than this. I focused on stabilizing the dream and managed to do it, then I opened a portal back to MoSh's inner world. When we exited the portal we were back in the living room, the game of Starcraft was still displayed on the flat screen television as it had been before we had left. MoSh looked at the screen and said he wasn't dead after all and then went back to playing the game. Asuka came out of the kitchen and had a plate full of warm cookies. She said we'd gotten back just in time to have cookies. I helped myself to some cookies, and they were delicious. Chocolate chip cookies, double chocolate cookies, triple chocolate cookies… they were all delicious. MoSh ate some cookies, too, I saw him eating a particularly large cookie and he seemed to be enjoying it. I ate more cookies and then felt like I was making a pig of myself so I stopped. I asked MoSh if he wanted to do something now. He continued playing Starcraft for a few more minutes before he said he wanted to keep playing Starcraft, he was having fun with that. I said ok, and then I grabbed him and jumped into the television with him… if he wanted to play Starcraft, let's actually go into the game and play it! It felt like MoSh and I were going through a wormhole. We were going to exit the other side of the wormhole into a Starcraft world. I don't remember anything past this point. I have the idea that the dream continued, but the rest of my memory of it is a complete blank. So this is the end of my record of this dream.
People don't like my journal here. I won't be posting much here anymore. ★★ park Just vaguely remember going through a park. WTF i was walking along some hill. I came across a bobcat that just ran over someone. the man driving it was upset that he ran over someone. He wanted me to let him know when he had gone far enough. He drove close to my boot and I made a stop sign with my hand. He kept going and ran over my foot. i motioned him to back up and he did. He got out and we helped the person he ran over. The person lying on the ground was my old room mate J. for some reason we thought the best way to heal him was to bury him! So we dug a 6 ft hole in the ground. put him in a coffin and placed him there in the hole and buried him. Itold him good luck and he waved before we shut the lid. dog I was in my living room with a golden retriever. i remember playing with it. It reminded me of my childhood dog Wilson. Starcraft 3 i'm playing a game of staarcraft online. I figure out that I can place velociraptors on the battle field. I place 30 of them on the map but they all get killed right away. dream in which I fight an invisible dog This dream starts off where i'm in some place for a gathering of people at a table. I'm smoking a cigarette and notice a small child is nearby. I think I should smoke around children so I put it out. The Childs mother is an Asian woman (Asuka). They leave and I follow thema few minutes later. I'm walking down an alleyway towards my old house in didsbury. I run into gary and see he's wearing a placstic mask over his face. He tells me to beware: that there's an invisible dog attacking people in the neighborhood. He hands me his plastic mask and goes on his way. The plastic mask is a bottle. I can feel the presence of something near so I hold out the plastic bottle. I see teeth marks indent on the bottle and I have a bit of a tug of war with the invisible dog. I decide the dog just wants the plastic to bite so I let him have it. I come to the back gate of my house and pick up something with bristles on it. Between my two hands i make the handle roll and the bristles spin around. I hear a harpsichord sound come from it when I do that. I find a door to play the bristles on. I keep spinning them on the door and made a harpsichord version of a populare theme. After a while all the bristles fall off. I go into the house and see Asuka sitting on the couch with two children. She's watching TV and looks extremely depressed about something. I go to ask her what's wrong when I wake up.
Starcraft 2 + SupCom Mix: I was playing what I thought was Starcraft 2, although, nothing was pointing to that. It seemed a lot like SupCom. I was able to zoom in and out and the terrain in the game was a red color similar to the starting maps in SupCom. I was taking control of two races, zerg and protoss. I am not sure what race the computer was. I had two lines of defense, first was the zerg line and almost behind it was the protoss one. I was thinking along the lines of "they won't be able to break through easily". Due to my dismay, they did. As they attacked, they were overpowering my defenses and breaking through easily using their numbers. I noticed this and decided to send what appeared to be a tank. I was planning to use its special abilites which would be some lighting attack or possibly fire and would do splash damage which would work wonders in destroying some of their units. I got close and activated it but forgot, if you want to call it that, that I have to wait a certain amount of time so that it can be used. As the time neared halfway, it was within the enemy's range and was getting bombarded pretty badly. It's health bar quickly dropped from green to yellow halfway through to red before it possibly exploded. I had more of this unit, so, it wasn't a special one but I didn't use them for some reason. I was almost completely wiped me out. The only remnants left was a couple of zerlings near one of their structures and likely some more units a couple of places over the map. How they managed to miss them, I have no clue. Helping out: All I can recall is asking my mom if she needed any help in the kitchen. Thoughts: That game dream was pretty nice. It would have been nicer if I was in control of it though. Imagine directing 100s or 1000s of units to attack a specific location. That would be something that can't be done in any of those games due to a control limit that is put in place. Would be nice to have more of these dreams with some control of course
Starcraft Unit: I was in the game starcraft. I think I was facing what appeared to be a cave but it had some boxes in it among other stuff, so, basically it was already controlled by humans. There was some new unit and I ended up grabbing to from within the cave before another guy did. I also made another guy work even though "he didn't want work". New Instructor: There was a new driver instructor in town. He was wearing circular glasses and a reddish shirt. It seems that he was trying to recurit people to teach them but none would get into the car for the lessons that he would be providing. He ended up coming up to a drive-thru where a lady asked where he was from. He had a large piece of paper which had an address. I was only able to catch the word LeBreton. She asked if he played games and said she could join if he plays since it was obvious he was going to have a hard time teaching when he was brand new to the community. Thoughts: Unforuntely, I can't provide more details about the SC dream. I would have loved to see the units or to have operated it, but, alas I couldn't recall that part and it is lost. As for the second dream, pretty odd since I'm been having more car dreams lately. I dreamt it when I took a nap since the last 2 days my sleep has been very minimal due to work shifts
