[ CHOOSE A DIFFERENT SET ] * * * These entries are Rated: TEEN Here are 10 more unusual and bizarre dreams I have recorded. And like the others - they seem to go all over the place. THIS IS WISDOM [1] Dreamed I was at church. People there were calling me a gupper, which I guess was a slang word for a stubborn person. They kept putting these poison pins in front of me in a tray that were each in the shape of religious symbols. Finally I knocked the whole lot of them to the ground. One adult came by and threw candy on the floor. Getting no reaction he picked them up and put them in this plastic treasure chest. Then these kids came rushing in and not only took the candy from the chest but the pins. A few put them on but when they did their faces turned ashen and their hair white. "This is wisdom." the adult said to me as if it were an explanation. I shook my head, "Then I don't want any of your wisdom, call me a gupper if you like, but I'm out of here." And I left the church, but when I did, what warmth I had started to trickle away and the further I got from the church the colder I got until I froze solid. I woke up seeing the blankets had fallen to the floor and I was shivering. SEEKING A TIME TRAVELER [2] Dreamed me and Rose were trying to find a time traveler. I sent her in this bathroom where construction was taking place. She relayed to me on a walkie-talkie. She said, there's something here - you should look. I asked, what ? She didn't answer. I went to her position and she pointed. Look they're giving out condoms here. I shrugged, didn't schools do that years ago to try and prevent unwanted teen pregnancies ? We couldn't find the traveler so we gave up and went to a bar. Rose got a drink. There was this nosy little kid there. He was very rude. What are you doing here ? You shouldn't be here. You need to go home now or you'll be sorry. I pushed him around when suddenly there was a gunshot - and I abruptly woke up. GIVE US THE MOPED [3] Dreamed I was on this high powered moped. For some reason many people were chasing me, like the whole city it seemed. They're all trying to knock me off and take the moped for themselves. I kept driving around, swerving around others and obstacles and everything. Then the sky got dark and purple ribbons rippled in the clouds. I knew the dream was going to get bad so I tried to get out of the city. Sure enough it got nightmarish as people turned into these grey ghoulish things with long fingers. I woke up in fright. NEW LEGO DESIGN [4] Dreamed that LEGOS were clear and required batteries in order to connect. They each had a small battery and were magnetic to each other instead of interlocking by the plastic connection. One advantage was, you could press the button on one and they would all light up and shine a different set or a fixed set of colors. I remember I was working on a house and I wanted a gray chimney. So I tapped the front of it until the colors cycled to the one I wanted. It was really neat these futuristic LEGOs, and of course they shone well in the dark. Then I woke up. [?] Woke up wondering what the word, "ampoule" was. [Link] BUILDING A RPGMAKER [5] Dreamed of working on S3, the predecessor of S2. I was over at Dad's house, busy working with the tiles on it. Dad was there too, he was working on an article for the history of videogames. I got thirsty, went into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator and saw that he only had juice. I didn't want that so I poured a glass of water. The top of the water was metallic though, like a mirror. For a moment I wondered if it was liquid mercury. Then I woke up feeling thirsty. BURNING GAS [6] Dreamed I was going through a drawer, looking for a small videogame when I came across the gold award I received for singing soprano so many years ago. I picked it up and taking a cloth started to clean it when it started to turn moldy and green in my hands. Then Dad showed up and said, "I told you not to wash anything from the past - you'll ruin it." Then a 'memory' popped in as happens with dreams. I knew that we had a Hispanic family living rent free in one of the other bedrooms - but it was quiet there and I didn't want to disturb them. I looked to Dad and now he was cleaning the floor with some type of cyanide. I was going to tell him that's really poisonous and maybe he should use some liquid soap instead when - I walked by him in the kitchen and some splashed on my arm. It started to sizzle and burn like crazy. And then I guess the gas was on the stove and I was coughing hard - I think I was going to die. Dad was yelling at me for something when I finally pitched forward unable to breathe anymore. I woke up coughing. RENT-A-YOUTH [7] Dreamed I was talking to this girl who was suicidal. I asked her if she wanted to go to a mental hospital where she would be cared for. She said yes. So I dialed 911. As it was ringing, I told her, once you get started on Seroquel, you're going to be alright. A team from the hospital showed up and took her away. And then for some reason I was considered a hero for doing this. I told them, I'm merely giving her the experience of what I went through. I just want to see her happy and balanced. A day later a different crew from the hospital showed up. They said they were there for ME ! I said there must be some mistake. They said, there is no mistake, we were called by both Chris and Brett. I started to talk to them again, to say it's a mistake when one of them reached around and injected me in the back of my arm with something. Then everything started to slide away and I got dizzy. When I woke up, I was in a rent-a-youth auction, or some people call it a worker's auction, a benefit for some church. And even though I knew it was just a game, a fundraiser, I was still feeling sick to my stomach. Someone there tried to bid me to get me out of the list as he knew I wasn't doing well. I woke up still feeling very dizzy and sick to my stomach, likely from the injection. REAL HAUNTED HOUSE [8] Dreamed I was in some type of mega-haunted house. But this wasn't Halloween and apparently me and a few friends of mine and 2 girls I don't know. We were actually in a ghost house. There was this spook that was invisible that had this whispering blade. I saw the blade coming after us and I threw a book behind me. The blade got caught in the book so I grabbed the sides of the book and pushed it down hard into the ground where the blade got stuck too. With the blade immobilized, the spook came after us with these grisly gray hands. There was a room open to the right of us so with the ghost still behind us, we darted into it. We looked to see the spook still running straight down the hall and it left like a mudslide behind it. Perhaps blind, the creature wailed not knowing where we went to. At that point we saw the door leading out. I ran through it no problem but looking behind me I saw they couldn't leave the house for some reason, like there was a force-field preventing them. There was this terrible wet splat and red sprayed over the door frame. I covered my mouth in fear and ran on. I woke up, my heart beating out of my chest. THE NIGHTMARE [9] Dreamed I was at the grocery store and it was snowing really hard. I got over to Dad's. I turned the key in the lock but somehow it was like the key for the ignition of an engine. Suddenly the door lurched forward and made the sound of a power mower. I was still hanging on to the key so I went with it before crashing into the end wall of the house. I felt a pain near my foot too and looked and saw this big leech. I ripped it off and all these insects started coming out of my wound. I was smacking them with my hands trying to keep them away from my face. I woke up frightened. DON'T SMOKE [10] I was with Kay and my sister outside. We were somehow all smoking cigarettes and there was this Japanese Mafia movie on which was being shone from a projector onto a far smooth wall of the house. I grabbed another cigarette, there was something in them that made me addicted to smoke. There was no lighter though. I yelled, "What does it take to get a light around here !?" Suddenly my cigarette ignited and I was smoking it again. Out of the corner of my eye I saw this terribly thin and tall man with no face. He had a cigarette lighter in his hand and it suddenly vanished. A moment later he did too. With that I took the cigarette out of my mouth and threw it to the ground. But apparently the grass was soaked with gasoline or something because it caught fire quickly and I was soon running into the house trying to find a bucket to put the fire out with. I woke up hearing my smoke alarm chirping. It was saying it wanted a new battery. I disconnected it for the night and gave it a new 9-volt battery in the morning.

Number 9 is my favorite DW...but again, I am attracted to nightmares in a sense. I had my first ever school related nightmare just the other day. I dreamed that I woke up and all of my clocks and watches showed different times and none of them were close to each other. I panicked in the dream because I didn't know what class to go to. I don't have very many nightmares anymore (partly because I take whatever fears I have and write them down...I guess that's the medicine) but this story really freaked me out.

Anyway, great write DW! Dreams are funny things aren't they. Sometimes they are filled with shades of light while at other times they are dark and nasty. Thanks for sharing this DW! Have a good one!

It's the first time I've heard of someone else having a nightmare about school. That's always happening with me - and I'm well out of college, so why ? I ask the doctor I see each week. He says, you have unfinished business there.

I ask, how so ?

He says, in many ways you are still back in school, High School, Middle, Elementary, it doesn't matter. In your dreams you are trying to do something, perhaps it's just as simple as making it to a class, or finding something to write on.

And - those memories have stayed with me all these years. It reminds me of what my Dad told me years ago.

He said I want to talk serious with you son. He did this when I reached 20.

I asked, about what ?

He said, many people in this world are not adults, they are children. Oh, they may be old and maybe even have a beard or wrinkles, but they are still children.

There are very few adults in this world.

I asked him, are you an adult ?

He said, yes I am.

I asked if I was.

He said, no, no you are not - and I don't suspect you ever will be. But that's something you have to face and fight for yourself. How far of responsibility do you want to be for yourself and for those around you.

It is all about responsibility. A child has few responsibilities. People bring themselves up in the world and plan the number of responsibilities they will have. Many choose few, few choose many.

We have a government today because many people choose to have fewer responsibilities - they are more content to let those in power make important decisions for them. That is a child - and that is the majority of the population.

And yes, Cody, many dreams I have are indeed nightmares. I had one again about trying to lock a door and it just - would - not - lock. That's a recurring dream though.
