ive been having very violent dreams as of late.
4, to be exact. the first few i dismissed as a coincidence, but after the last two im getting slightly worried. i mean, ive never actually had violent dreams prior to this, so... 4 is a lot.
the first was slightly before the start of school. i had left my jacket in school, and returned at night with
ally to get it. but while we were on the lift down, a strange disease seemed to have overtook the students and they all turned into bloodthirsty mutant vampires determined to suck our blood (think I Am Legend). at every floor the lift door opened, they threw themselves towards it, gnarling at us as ally and i frantically pushed the close button. i also remember trying to call the police. except, phones dont work in lifts. the moments just waiting for the lift door open... those were pretty intense.
the second one occurred into the first week, i believe. an ogre (attributed to an anime i was watching the day before that included ogres) had attacked a strange version of singapore, with its ultimate destination (illogically, but dreams rarely are) RJ campus. for some reason, every student found it of great importance to return to school to get their belongings, so along with a few students, one of whom was
theo in his green ccad shirt, i raced to the mountain RJ was set on, into Adventist Home for the Elders, which was situated at its foot, tried to convince the elders to run run run to no avail ("they too old to run already. some of them have trouble walking. its ok, you all go first") and started to scale the intimidatingly steep stairs. once we made it up and grabbed our belongings, we raced back down the hill (theo was amazingly fast, and since it was my dream, i could actually keep up with him) before the ogre could come.
the third occured last sunday. i suppose it was the residue from the previous week, because i had dreamt that
a classmate had gotten into a car accident and passed away (Final Destination premonition style). i remember exactly how it happened and very distinctly, the two hours of crying (in the dream) that followed. and when i saw his face on monday in class, a little bit of that emotion whelmed up again, but i squashed it out before i did something to alarm everyone.
the last was on tuesday. my husband (ikr, majorly strange) and i were at a hotel and someone had stolen his phone, leaving behind a note that requested him to pick it up at a lower floor.i watched as he walked down the grand stairs to the floor below (i was standing at the registration lobby) but at the corner of my eye i spotted a slightly balding man in a pink shirt watching him, and somehow, came to understand that that was the man whose wife my husband had accidentally killed, and he was going to come after me to take revenge. at the same time i had realised that, the man had turned to face me, so i began to run. except i was wearing heels, which slid on the marble floor and taking those off didnt help either since i was wearing stockings.
yeah.
very strange dreams, but a common theme in all (other than taking place in school, except the last one) is the element of being preyed upon. amanda hypothesised that i was probably having too much stress in school, but idk, i dont actually recognise any significant increase in stress lately. i think it may be rather interesting to see what professionals may say about all these dreams ive been having.
meh. idk. i just want to stop dying. but its ok, despite what all these dreams may imply about my emotional state, my waking moments have been pretty fun and awesome, all thanks to the upcoming (TMR) orientation. so for all my horrible nights, at least i have happy days (:
am really really unbelievably looking forward to tomorrow.BUT MOSTLY ALL IM THINKING ABOUT NOW IS CRAP MY THIGHS HURT. DIE PE DIE.
