dreams meme

I'm sitting in front of a heater fan (I must remind you that we are, technically, in the middle of summer, though the weather certainly doesn't agree) waiting for my hair to dry.

I am rather pleased with myself for the last few days, even though I quietly didn't go to uni today XDDD But! I got home after a long day on Sunday and stayed up listening to two anatomy lectures and can now definitively say that neurology is hell and I hate it, and that the Creator designed the central nervous system just to brainscrew medical students. Then I worked today (thus did not go to uni) and listened to the other two lectures I missed. All in all, I understood about 50% of my lectures and need to hunt down a really good neurology book. Or two. Or a few more.

So here's a happy dreams meme nicked from someone, while I'm waiting for bed.

Do you remember your dreams?
I forget some, I remember parts of some, and I remember a lot of others.

What's the best dream you've ever had?
I think in terms of haunting beauty and how much I want to see that waterfall again, this one. Apart from that...maybe one of the ones I had in high school, where though they're still highly tension-strung, at least they had a complete happy ending T-T Maybe I'll write them up some day if anyone's interested =P

What's the worst nightmare you've ever had?
There was one that I had as a child about Mentos which caused me never to eat Mentos ever, even though I'm kinda over it now. I also had one about my bathroom having eyes that blinked and moved - don't read into it since I was nine at the time - but that's a pretty normal nightmare as far as nightmares are concerned.... I've had a few dreams where they can be counted as nightmares except for the fact I wasn't scared at the time...but I think the scariest one I remember is one that I had in high school:

I and a few people (whom I don't remember) were at a mountain temple. The sky got dark and when we tried to leave, it started to rain. There was something wrong with the rain and at first we thought it was corrosive, like acid rain, but when it fell on our hand we realised it was drops of blood. We went back inside the temple, and our guide led us through a corridor to either safety or our beds or something. The corridor walls were painted a grassy sort of green that's gotten old and so has become a slightly sinister plasticky green. As our lamp lights glanced off the smooth walls, we saw that the ceiling was leaking, and the "rain" was seeping through the cracks and down the wall. Believe me...it looked like what blood would look like, rather than some bright red liquid, it was this pale diluted brownish-red colour because it was spread so thin on the green wall, and it was slimy and viscous and moving slowly and looking like it would congeal. It was absolutely disgusting and freaky, because I had no reason to know why blood would look like that!

What's the absolute WEIRDEST dream you've ever had?
I'll go for this one, because it was one of very few not to make much logical sense. To be honest, I find it freaky when dreams make sense.

Can you control your dreams?
If I'm aware I'm dreaming, yes. Sometimes I can go through doors and walls, just because XD

Do you have any recurring dreams?
Only about exams. Or about waking up and going to uni only to wake up and realise I haven't gone to uni, then going to sleep and dreaming this all over again.

Have you ever had a flying dream?
Every now and then. Maybe once a year or so XD

How about one of those dreams where you go to school/work and realize that you're naked?
Nope. Underdressed, sometimes, but never naked. LOL.

Have you ever had a dream that featured characters from a book, movie, or television show?
Yes. Rarely though.

Have you ever had a dream where your teeth fall out?
Yes.

Have you ever dreamed something that later came true?
Well, I think that's part of the reason I don't eat Mentos. Because when I had the dream I was maybe eight? And I've only just heard of the brand, but I had this nightmare where everyone who ate it got controlled or became not themselves, and there were three flavours, one of them being a fruity/colourful one, and each having a different effect. A few weeks later I happened to go to the supermarket and THERE WERE ONLY THREE FLAVOURS on the shelves at the time, INCLUDING A FRUITY ONE. I was so freaked I refuse to touch Mentos.

Bonus question for writers:
Have your characters ever shown up in your dreams?
I think so. Very, very rarely though.

Now~ Off to do some dreaming. Hope I have a good one XD
