I get upset when I have really awesome dreams. Why? I have to freakin wake up from them and discover they're not real! Yeah, I know sometimes you know that you're in a dream.. I'm talking about a full-on, completely-asleep, you-feel-like-it's-the-real-thing dream. Would you rather experience this awesomeness first hand, think it's real, and then wake up and find out none of it has actually affected the rest of your life or your future? Or would you rather just not have a dream at all? (Sometimes I've had dreams that have had me fulfilling lifelong goals.. or meeting some incredible girl.. all kinds of things)
Of course have the dream. Unless, of course, you wake up wet... that's not a good thing... I can't believe ya'll missed this one.. LOL...
I had this awesome dream that I was in a Star Wars battle. It was like being in a video game. It was awesome. I woke up happy. I'll return to the nerditorium now.
I have a recurring dream that, for some reason, my high school discovers that I didn't really graduate and I have to go back and take some more classes. Very humiliating. I'm always glad to wake up and realize that it was just a dream.
The one that I hate waking up from is the one about the menage a-trois with me, Salma Hayek and Penelope Cruz.
My awesome dreams tend not to be positive dreams. The positive ones turn out to be really dumb when considered in the morning. We've been searching for a name for my coming baby girl. I had a dream a couple of nights ago where I had finally come up with a good name for her: Olivgrat. I woke up and said "wtf was I thinking?"
What do you think it means? In my case, I work with a bunch of people who have finance and/or accounting degrees....and I have a music degree. Maybe I'm a little self conscience about it. Subconsciencely, that is.
I always thought dreams were meaningless... sometimes I wake up and I feel like a had a great dream but I can't remember it.
last night I had a dream where the queen of england wrote me a check for 61 million dollars. i started running around with the check in the palace where oddly enough my friends' dad was there on a tour and i introduced him to the queen. She walked me over to a bank where they needed to call a higher up teller to process such a transaction. the teller looked like cate blanchett and told me once the money was taken out of the royal treasury that i could not use the money to invest and that it was meant for spending only. so i woke up from that dream and then had another dream last night where i was at my hindu temple performing a ceremony and then the priest does something to my eyes which gives me perfect vision again. it was weird cuz it was like in the spiderman movie because i tried putting on my glasses and everything looked blurry and then when i took them off it was perfect again. the lesson I learnt is to not take excedrin pm right before going to bed again. these were probably the most random dreams i have had in some time and i had them both in the same night
while it sucks to wake up from them, i love awesome dreams. they're usually really long and, for me, either involve some cool alternate world that's fun to think about living in or i'm in the real world doing cool stuff. i had one last night that i almost completely forgot when i woke up where i was basically magic and could make anything happen that i wanted (this happened in another recent dream), although sometimes it didn't quite work out. for some reason, someone drove off in my car so i just made another one appear, but then i couldn't quite make the engine and wiring work out. before the magic thing, at one point, my family and i were at some gathering and the woman sitting next to me was apparently the mayor of houston in this dream (not sure who it was) and this other dude was the governor of texas (but i actually knew in the dream that it was rick perry). they didn't say anything to me, but in the dream i felt like a big shot. now that i think about it, the dream went on for a damn long time and didn't have any depressing elements, so i guess that's why it was awesome, as dreams go anyway. i've noticed since i finished school that i haven't had a school dream in a long time, which is nice (although i would have them in the summer during school even if i had been off for 2 months). they're always extremely frustrating where i either can't find my locker, don't know the combo, can't find my class as the bell is about to ring, go to class and haven't finished some project that is due or studied for some test we're about to have (which is always on a tuesday) and then later in the dream i show up the next tuesday still not having done the project and it's now due this day for some reason. that usually repeates a few times. then i always wake up panicked for a few seconds before i realize it's not real.
I don't really know. I'm not sure if it means anything really. It could be selfconcienceness or maybe guilt about success. I have heard that people have a hard time believing they are really qualified or deserving of their success.
I never have *good* dreams and I never have bad ones, really. A couple weeks ago I dreamt I was in a mall with my boyfriend, and I was getting a gift for my mom because we were about to go visit my parents. Then, when I went to my house, there were 8 kids running around. My mom told me they were all mine, don't I remember them? I remembered being dumbfounded because I didn't think I had any kids. I didn't remember giving birth at all. Shane Battier was the godfather of all my kids, which were all from different men. Then I was back in the mall again, in a huge perfume store spraying different scents on the sample cards. I woke up childless, thankfully.
You sure it wasn't a... FLEAMARKET.....MONTGOMERY....IT'S JUST LIKE....IT'S JUST LIKE.....A MINI...MALL
I guess in posting this, my thought was about dreams I have that are really awesome...but still very realistic. It happens every once in a while...the dream is just like real-life, except one of my biggest goals is accomplished.. maybe the girl I want to be with, I suddenly AM with her. Or the thing I've been waiting for at work for 2+ years finally comes in. Something that's important to me changes for the positive, and everything else is like regular life (except for all the cascading changes that would be caused.) So when I wake up, I'm actually confused for a good 30 seconds, wondering if any of that was real.. and then I'm left in disappointment when I figure out that all of that "work"...that sense of relief that I had FINALLY accomplished whatever it was...was a farce.
Anyone have an awesome dream and wake up but then you go back to sleep and you're able to continue it? Also ever have an awesome dream ad then you wake up and you try to go back to sleep to continue the dream because you've done it before only to go into a nightmare instead?
it's self-conscious. at some point i started to be able to continue a dream through the snooze alarm. not sure if i can just wake up naturally and keep the dream going if i fall asleep again but i can keep a dream going through 3 or 4 snoozes.
