Dream 1: The stairs and the lecture hall It's the day after my birthday, and a whole whack of time tonight was spent grappling with dreams...more than one if I'm remembering correctly. Upon waking up a few hours before I typically would have, I fell out of bed (literally) and switched on the comp because I wanted to write it down and not forget. The reason for this unexpected desire for preservation is obvious when you consider the people/person in it... Was thinking hard about whether I should...massage the text, make it more smooth, get rid of some errors but thinking about it now, I decided not to. As it is, the text is rife with typos that I normally wouldn't make and may seem disjointed at times as I quickly jump from scene to scene in an effort to keep them all fresh enough in my mind to write. There will also be some details at the ends that I included after the 'scene's passed and I remembered it again. I'll let you guys see it exactly as I wrote it...and if you don't understand stomething or anything that's happening....well, it's my dream right? Did you really expect to? A further note...if any of you reading this feel the urge to play amateur psychologist and examine this...well, be my guest ^.^ I'm always interested in hearing your thoughts. Enjoy... woke up with a dream today old apartment slowly going up allt he stairs, trying to open each of two doors at every floor. Really fucked up doors, like slime and peeling plaster and paint on the doorframe hit the top...it's the 14th floor. one door is still ugly lookin, the other leads to the roof. Heading on my way back to MY apartment..i live ono the 2-3rd? somewhere on the lower level and i'm experimenting different ways to jump down the stairs. Eventually, I figure out a way to jump each set of stairs at once. I har a door open just a floor above me and I panic and begin to speed up my descent but no matter how fast I go, they're right behind me...sounds like a small grou p of people. i finally enter my door just ahead of them and wait there, listening. I'm wearing my beige, long shti thing, black pabnts and my dark, naby blue coat. I hear them outside saying things, making plans to come in and rob me? I put on some stew on the oven and when it boils,. I take it to my room. There's a rose hanging from the doorway. I leave it boiling on my desk and go back outside, looking for a weapon. Eventually, I take two knives (cleavers) from the kitchen and just wait standing there in front of the door while I see them jiggling and fumbling at the lock...I see the top lock turning and then... I'm outside. It's snowing and I seem to be at the back of some sort of warehouse complex. LYDIA is beside me...we're walking and talking. She's not dressed in her customary, 'cool as hell' yet unique style...she's dressed in cute winter clothes and a small round hat that just barely covers the topsof her ears and leaves some of her hair to peak out from below the rim. As we walk, we talk of things...she told me that tshe'd read what I thoguht of her on my site...and she adressed certain points. THe only one i acn remember clearly at this point is that she said 'and all that black clothes? I was basically doing it to dis mckella.' i ask her why. her response 'well, he'd always sing songs about how he 'd "love to kiss his black (ass? shrug) little lady" so I dressed that sporty way to stop him' ? We walk along some more...talking. She addresses why she never stayed in touch...errr, she looks apologetic? Says something about captain planet that I can't remember and asks if I am willing to be her captian planet for her ?? I reply in the affirmative and she smiles and damn..even in a dream...fuck. That smile kills me. We keep walking, it begins to snow, and see a small carfr zooming around the lot, and eventally hit a snowbank and freeze up. She laughs as the driver furiously attempts to back out and get going in the other way. We arrive at an open ended warehouse which leads toa UTSC lecture hall...the ARC, rooom 221. The lecture is starting and she's already late. I ask her (bit desperately) when i'll see her again I see her torn between goin in and writing something down for me (her number?) She freezes there for a second, gives me a slow smile and walks into the hallway. I watch for a moment and then leave. Then there's something more that's really hard to remember...walking down the hallway that my locker is in in B wing...i see conan Tam coming outta class (dunno how considering he lives across the Atlantic...) So i open HIS locker...pull out a water balloon and lie in wait in the middle of the crowded hallway to throw it at him? THen the rest is blank... Wait...i also remember vague snippets of being n an almost empty lecture hall (the ARC again) and brenna's two seats over and steve chung is slightly behind me.l I remember asking him what his marks were like....then something about two ...creatures? who were too stupid to manage to get to us, even though we were the only ones in the room? I fended/lured them off by tossing somethign up the row of seats and it went after it....then got confused as to what it was doing and came back ato me and looked at me. It looked like...in FFX, at the beginning...tidus is alone in the ruins after being pulled outta zanarkand and a monster attacks him right after he makes a fire...I remember that it's name has an X in it somewhere... ok....it's pretty much all faded away now.....wait, I saw Hanna chung coming outta the lecture hall that lyd was goin into...coming out or going in? I dont' remember...n second though, think that it was going in and she waved hello to me while walking inside....while i was talking to lydia....yeah, that was it... And now it's all gone. And that's it I guess...I know that it might be a bit hard to make out but I was still half asleep writing this and dont' wanna bother fixing up typos, I mean, it was a DREAM right? They typically don't make sense... Well...make of this what you will. |
