I've had a few dreams lately that featured someone I haven't seen in ~10 years. The odd part is that it started very recently within the last month, and each time I wake up, I'm left wondering where are they now.

So ~10 years ago I went to a daycare center as I was ~12 years old. For a while, there was a kid there named Isaiah, who was ~2-3 years old, who would sit on my lap in the mornings and watch TV. It became almost ritualistic. I got there before him, the TV was usually playing a movie, I sat down and waited for him. When he got there, he smiled at me and ran to my lap. Sometimes we tickled each other, we were kids, only I was ~10 years older than him.

Out of the blue one day I remembered him. I didn't wonder where he was, but I did wonder why we stopped hanging out together at daycare. Were we forced to sit apart? Did I do something wrong and I don't remember? Did he avoid me, or did I avoid him? Just a handful of questions. I shrugged them off. He probably doesn't remember me anyways.

I can't remember the other dreams off the top of my head, but I do remember he was in them, because I woke up wondering where he was and what he looked like now.

So the dream went like this:

I was on a school bus to my elementary school. We took a different way into the school to get off the bus, a back road, rather than the standard dropoff point. I first saw him by himself off the bus, and he saw me. I got off the bus and he comes to me and sits on my lap (and I'm in my early 20s, he would be ~12-13). I got a better look at him, or her. It was hard to figure it out. He had like a turquoise bob-style haircut, but it wasn't masculine or feminine, it was genderless. He also had a mix of masculine and feminine features, and assume he was genderless (but for readability, I'm going to refer to him as a he). He took me inside the gym and kinda led the way. He was running into friends in there, but all his friends were girls, and it was at this time that he acted more feminine than masculine, not homosexually feminine, more like he was a teenage girl. He didn't say much to me the rest of the dream. In fact he pretty much ignored me. He spent the time with the friends his age, and when I did try play with him, he told me to stop, and at that point I walked out of the gym.

The rest of the dream didn't involve him and didn't take place at the school, but I still woke up wondering what his life is like now, and what he looks like. Tried Facebook a few days ago, no luck, also, it would be pretty weird for a 20 something guy to be looking for a 12 year old boy whom he met ~10 years ago.

Ever been dreaming, thought you woke up, but someone in your dream had to break the news to you? I felt a little overwhelmed after I was told in last night's dream, and I was very hesitant to record this one, but here it goes.

It starts out with me in school, as a lot of my dreams do. Each person in my class had an ID number, and for an activity, had to get each classmate's ID number, describe that person in a mean way, then say "yes, that's how i actually feel about that person" or "no, that's not how i feel." I met up with one of my classmates outside a bar where they were meeting what I assumed to be her husband. This girl didn't know we were meeting up, I just had to get her ID number and be on my way. She was slightly frustrated to see me when I walked up to her, so quickly got her ID on the towel I handed her, and she handed it back. She and her husband left. I knew this person from gradeschool in reality.

I don't remember this middle bit, but I do remember being at 'home' and playing video games. One was a shooter, military-type game, one was an open - world driver, and I remember specifically that the text in this game was very clear, as in it's not regular dream text that changes as you're reading it, and the final game, I assume was an LSD dream emulator look-a-like. It didn't have any gameplay, there was just an odd animation of a 2D face from the side which resembled the art on generic playing cards, and there were 2 different face sprites, and it looked similar to a Cyriak YouTube video. At one point I was walking around this house, and I couldn't help but notice how vibrant the colors were in my dream. At this point I knew I was dreaming in the back of my mind, but I was also going with it. On the floor in a room (assumed my bedroom) were a pair of pants that looked like they had 3 legs, and in that same room at one point there were 2 Doberman dogs sleeping on the ground. I knew if I interacted with them they would probably wake up and attack me or something. It was around this time I heard my dad downstairs. I started heading downstairs from a different room upstairs when the downstairs lights and TV turned off. As I got to the bottom, he jumped out from around the wall as a jump scare and I thought it scared me awake. I was completely thinking I was awake. I went back to the room with the pants and pointed them out to a guy with me, "in my dream these looked like they had 3 legs," I kicked them a little to look at them when the person with me did an inhaling "S" sound (Don't know what it's called) and said he said "I hate to break it to you..." I looked around for a moment. "I'm still dreaming," and for a moment my heart dropped slightly and I wanted out of this dream. I wanted to wake up. It wasn't a scary dream, I just didn't want to deal with it anymore. I ended up pushing the person I was with to the ground in the living room. It was light outside. I punched him in the face but it behaved like rubber. This has happened before. He looks out the window and says, "Ahhh, purple rain." I said "I'm pretty sure you've seen purple rain before," assuming he exists in the dream world. I looked out the window and noticed the rain. The sky was a medium blue, and the horizon was purple. I then felt the moment of waking up, and a second afterwords felt like I woke up again, as if I was in a double sleep or something. I was satisfied to feel my arms under the pillow, and to be in my bed. I didn't like feeling trapped in that dream.

Me, my mom, and a handful of other people were at a Christmas party at a restaurant back room. We were playing a gambling game (which doesn't exist in real life) and I won a round. The prize was an item from a box of stuff. There were 2 boxes though. One had a bunch of Xbox 360 games, another had miscellaneous stuff. I didn't pick a prize because I realized that the box of random stuff was actually someone's Christmas presents.

Afterwards, my mom, me and at least one other person was with us in an SUV, driving through a town that looked like the one I'm in now. I reached into the pocket of the door (which some cars have IRL) and found 3 sets of keys of my mom's that had been lost. I gave them to my mom who was sitting in the back left passenger seat. I was riding shotgun, and I don't know who our driver was.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My mom had moved out of our house recently. I was a bit saddened by that. Here's why I'm mentioning it:

I've been to this dream town before.

This dream town that I instantly remembered, I remember feeling the association of my mom leaving. In the dream, she did all this stuff with me and we had fun before she had to move. In real life, she picked up and left.

In real life, we never did anything together really, except went to an indoor skate park a long time ago when she was single and unmarried. I lived with my dad for most of my life.

I was watching TV when I remembered a dream I had before my last.

I was at a Halloween party. The building we were in had 3 floors. The first floor was where the actual party was. The second floor was strange. All the photos of people in that story had one eye like a cyclops and they stared at you. The third floor, which was actually the roof, was where there was airsoft gun battles if I remember correctly.

The dream is a distant memory, and I remember there was more to it, I just don't remember what.

I prepped for this dream by going to bed early and limiting outside noises.

I remember for a brief moment I was at my high school in a dream before-hand. It is very faded though.

The main dream consisted of me and a gay guy on a journey through a temple to flush a toilet. I remember him specifically being gay. There was a small room that we started in, which presumably was the bathroom at the end of the dream. There was a chalkboard with a graph and numbers around it, I tried making it out, but I couldn't because the edges seemed to be cut off. They guy with me could see more of it because the chalkboard kinda had the movement of being drunk in GTA 4 with the camera shakes, although the boarder of the board didn't move. He could understand part of it now. I saw this part in second person, then afterwords went back to first person of me finishing up in the bathroom. We left.

I see next a temple interior with 3 floors Me and the other guy jumped down onto a bridge made of the same temple material, which was kinda like the colors of some dungeons in Skyrim. Seemed like a touch of yellow with green vines and black cracks. On the other end of the bridge was a sabertooth cat with an amazingly giant tongue which was used as an "attack" and I think we killed it, but IDK. I remember the back drop was a waterfall, and that I was in a 3rd person sidescroller view. Instead of moving to the right though, we were facing to the left.

We were then walking in the Halo 2 map Headlong, but the streets were more square and flat. It felt like a normal city with the headlong scheme. I do remember thinking as we were walking up to a structure made out of the tower of a crane that this was "an old map I made in Halo 2" (IRL not really) and there was a GTA 5 dump truck nearby. I remember seeing it a couple times in the same spot. Just ahead of that was the bathroom we started in, I walked straight in and found the toilet, flushed the toilet, and walked out. I didn't feel like I had accomplished anything unfortunately.

I only got 6 hours of sleep.

I've noted a few locations in my dreams that have occurred more than once, and occur at random. I don't choose to go there, they are presented to me. Unfortunately, most of these places don't come to me anymore, and are only here by memory.

Cartoon Temple Track

As best as I can describe it, it is a temple-themed water "ride" that is a bit cartoon-like in art. In one dream, I explored it for the first time. In another dream, I visited the same place, but knew where all the "easter eggs" were (in video game terms) because I created that place.

Cheaply-Made Video Game Level

This one is really basic. It has a solid black floor, and is a rectangular room, with a sort of figure 8 floor plan.



I knew it was cheap because I could glitch to the top of any wall and shoot below. Also there was bots. There is no roof, and the outer barrier was a cityscape.


And most recetly:
An England Town

And I know how vague that sounds, but this picture looks EXACTLY like what I'm picturing in my dreams.



Picture this scheme for the buildings, only that the buildings are literally duplicates of each other, all around town. It is shaped a lot like the video game level, except bigger, and more detail. Not just flat walls, but actual buildings. Also different from this picture was a lack of cars, or I don't remember their being cars. Keep in mind I've never been to England, nor seen this picture before today.

The first dream I entered this place, the entire dream took place here. There were people walking down the streets. I assume there are streets, but I have yet to get a real good look of the ground. Anyways, the dream started with me playing marbles with a couple other kids if I remember correctly (also I'm 20, but likely not in the dream). I heard a bang, and I see one of the buildings are on fire and people are screaming, people start running away from it, I run too. I hear another explosion, more screaming? I don't remember. But as I turned around, every other building was on fire. Smoke filled the air and it had a reddish orange tint.

Just last night, the dream I was having had no resemblance. At one point though, I was exiting a grocery store, and the doors opened up to this England town, no fire, no damage. It's like my dreams were giving me a cameo of my other dream, as this is where the dream ended.

I will definitely update this post if I happen across any familiar locations.

Dream: I was camping at a campground and had gone out for (wood?) So, we (random group) found wood, and were haeding back to camp. There was a zombie apocalypse approaching. A truck drove through the group and we quickly brushed the tracks away that it left behind. The zombies followed the tracks, not foot prints. (IDK why, they just do) We got back to camp and everyone camping there grouped together for the night and (slept?) The next morning we were at a construction sight. It was abandoned. We had crappy weapons. But I found an area with tools and wepons, where I picked up 2 long knives. I saw zombies coming... (to be continued, NOW!) I saw a guy preparing a handgun, when the zombies tore him apart. A big, fat one ran at me, when I salashed open his stomach and tore out the insides... Then another horde sprinted, and we were not ready for it...

My next dream was more weird than gore, but here's some things that were in it:
A pizza tree
A baby's head being smashed by a spike (IDK WHY! It freaked me out too, not at the time, but it does now)
A girl I was looking for and just couldn't find
A room of tiles (when you peed on them they changed colors and you got points for it, again IDK)

That's pretty much last night, ALSO I had not taken a Melatonin before bed.

All 3 were set at my house outside:
1) I was looking for my sister and heard her and my dad at the end of the street, I walked over there.
2) I was in my yard, watching a neighbor, when I morphed through the fence into his yard. He directed me to my yard.
3)MY dad and I got out of his car and there was a family at my house, they were a different race (different than any race ever, and language) Their daughter (my age, colored skin) were trying to talk to each other...I didnt know her language, but she knew mine. And messed up once when she said something like "Have you seen black kitchen beer?" (Or something of that nature). We had fun hanging out.

Went to bed early out of boredom.
I appeared in a grocery store (unnamed) and had a hand-held hotwheels carrying pack with 4 cars, I had an extra car along with it. A kid said 'Alright let the hide and seek begin' (or something like that) Ilooked around for a hiding spot when a name was called. I turned around an everyone ran for a kid. He was pinned down and killed (i assume) then another name. that kid was pushed against the shelves and shot with a taser. He stuck to the shelves dead... or dying... Then everyone ran after me... I ran through a door to a half-lit room. There were a couple people there. I slammed the door behind me. 'You guys i made it!' They cheered. Then I jumped up on a pallet with a covenient tarp.I hid under the tarp. The kids came and left. A dark-haired girl followed me to the meat department where i asked 'am i allowed to hide back there?' The butcher looked at the door to the left smiling. I ran in. I found a nice shelf out of the way. I tried to crawl in but was too big. Then I hear people coming I run behind the door. They see me. The girl is with them, she ratted me out. I appear with the other rebels (without her, she wasnt a rebel, but a spy.) They exit the front door. (against the rules) The main boy i looked up to as he said 'What if we just...'
'just left?' I said.
But its against the rules.' a different girl said.
I run down the road and across the street. The main boy, girl and another boy run on the other side of the road. The false rebels follow them in an armored car. The grill of the car flips over into rockets. the girl, not running fast enough getss caught by the rockets and flies up. I look up as she comes down onto crudely made spikes on the car. The car slows down. The boys keep running. then it kinda goes black. They appear in a parked car on the side of the road. the main boy plays a harmonica while the other gets out and walks to a campfire where the killed girl sits. He sits down in a flimsy plastic chair and falls over baackward. they both laugh...The end...P.S. i escaped death...

Had a melatonin beforebed...
bit: I was at a hospital, not much i remember.
bit: I was trying to talk to people in a futureistic robotic control panel place (IDK lol), trying to beat my nemisis (forgot his name)
segment: I was buying something when the cashier went away for a sec, a teen, blonde hair blue eyes, beautiful, put money under the register. She walked away with a brown hair friend.
The cashier comes back, blonde hair, blue eyes, similar to the teen. I say 'is that your daughter?' she said 'yes' (or something like that). The cashier and I chat and she says 'thats my daughter crystal' I say 'yeah that's right' (like I knew her, but i didnt) The cashier said ' her and her brother are being beaten.'
'who's beating her?' I whisper.
'Do you have aphone?' (a little off-topic, dont you say?)
'yeah' I pull it out and it already says 'Sandi is calling' along with some other symbols, then I dont pick up and it says call ended ( I assume, but it was written in the strange symbols as above) then I faded out and awakened.

I dreamed that i had gotten some microsoft points for xbox live and was repurchasing some old games. I came across Portal and played it, realizing it was not portal 1 or 2, so I went back and read the title, I could make out 'New('Next' perhaps) generation (something)' I cant remember the something. But I guess it was portal 3 alpha version in other words. I played the first level, it was not well put together, it seemed like it had alot of ideas in 1 room. The next room was gta4 like and you went down a ladder to a shipping area, cops patrolled by (The first time i 'died' here ). then get 15 feet across to another ladder to go up to another door. which leads to an office area where you meet a woman, about 50 years of age. She's blonde and a good secretary. You have some dialogue with her. There was a weird chair in that room. It was black with blue neon, kinda like tron, but awesome looking and the coolest thing ive ever seen. So I focused in on it and payed close attention to it. Then I woke up this morning.

In my dream, it was my birthday. I was in my birthday suit for most of the dream. I wasnt embarrassed at all, I actually didn't care what anyone thought. I was at my school even. Anyways, there was a bench I sat upon and heard Lilium from the short anime series 'Elfen Lied' as i said 'This is a sad song.' to a girl.
She wasnt anyone i knew, but my mind made her look like someone I knew. Another song 'Cara Mia' from Portal 2 came on. I translated what little I knew, 'Cara Mia, (My dear) Cara Mia, oh Chell (My dear, oh Chell)' The girl went inside and we were jumping all over each other and having fun. We went to a classroom and sat. I put my leg on hers, then hers mine, then again, then her third leg went on mine, I looked at her and she busted out laughing. It was funny!

Segment: I was in a third person view watching over myself as a WoW character. I was in a place which was like a combined texture of Eye of the Storm and Redridge Mountains. I was mounted on [Tyrael's Charger], it had no wings. It was used as a land mount. all I remember for sure is that i drifted in and out of first person, and that i kept ending up in the same spot in the place.

segment: I was at my mom's house in my bedroom. It was dirty and nasty, and my sister and Dad were with me. I remember looking by the wall and there was a thick line of ants, as well as spiders that moved like the daddy longlegs in Cyriak Harris's youtube video. My alarm IRL went off, but in my dream, my sister answered the phone (it was like a red emergency phone, except yellow). And then I awoke.
