Thread: Ashliebelle's Dream Journal - Surfin USA

Good lord! I can't get any sleep!

I went to bed at like 3:30 this morning, and set my alarm for 9:30 so that i could wake up and have a nap an hour later, but at 6:30 I woke up. I stayed awake an hour, and then went back to sleep and now it's 9:45 and SOMEONE WOKE ME UP AGAIN!

Anyway, I did have a dream. I titled it "Niffler" and anyone who read Harry Potter (extensively) will know why.


I'm in my dorm room, and I get an invitation to a party. Evidently, my friend has 3 natural pearls and will let anyone keep them if they can pick them from a group of fake pearls. Ironically, I just got a little pixie that morning that attracts pearls, so I'd be able to get the pearls! When I get to my friend's dorm room, he;s not there, but my pixie flies inside and finds a small white sphere on the ground. I realize it must be a pearl, so I grab it, and a few fake pearls along with it. The real ones are opaque and soft white, and the fake ones are clearer, and even look faker. I go to watch a movie, and when I turn around, someone's got their hand in my little cup with my pearls in them. I get really upset and kick the guy, and my pearls go everywhere. The pixie goes nuts, and flies straight toward one of the fake ones. She looks over her shoulder and back at me sheepishly, as if she shouldn't be flying towards the fake one, but I put the real pearl in my mouth and it tastes like lemon! My pixie is making the right choice now!

I'm on a show like survivor, but it's with people who already know each other. How on earth am I supposed to form alliances when there are alliances already formed? When there are 10 people left, the show chooses the last 8, and I'm very upset because I'm never the one they want. I'm not interesting enough. Well, I'm too afraid to do something daring, because what if they send me home for it?

When someone gets voted off, they have to step through a mirror and go home. Well, I find out that the further you go in the game, you'll go home more years into the future. The woman who got voted off was crying as she stepped through her mirror, but at least she was able to go home to a normal time. After voting that day, we all go back to our rooms, and everyone's talking as if I'm going to be one of the two that have to go home. I don't want to talk to anyone, so i just go to my room, but since we have rooms with 3 people each, I couldn't be alone.

March 25, 2004
Frustrating because I know I dreamed... I can't remember the whole thing though! I just remember trying to find a parking space in the snow. I parallel parked, which i've never done correctly in real life, especially not in the snow. I had to get out and arrange stools and blankets for an art project, but they had to move soon, so it didn't matter. My art class had to recreate a scene of greek ruins, so we found a bunch of pieces of statues, and set them up to make them look like ruins.


Luckily, i still have a couple hours of sleeping to do. I do most of my dreaming then... I hope!

In m dream, my friend James and I decide to move in together for the last quarter of the year. I'm trying to sleep on my bed, but it's difficult because even though James isn't there, I don't like sleeping in the same room as a guy. I really want to have a lucid dream, in my dream, but cant fall asleep, so I just decide to go to class instead.

It's time for history, but when I show up for class, my regular teacher isn't there. This teacher expects us to pay attention the whole time (which i don't do) and also to read along in the book while he's teaching. I don't want this teacher because my other teacher gives out easy A's compared to the others. He decides to take us outside, and I take out the whistle on my keychain (we call it the "rape whistle" at school because it was given to all the girls) and start blowing into it. It doesn't work, because part of it is broken off.

Forgetting why I'm outside, and assuming that the only reason i'd be blowing my rape whistle would be that i'm in actual trouble, I get out a square board with wheels on the bottom and start to push myself frantically away from whatever's behind me.

My mom and her friend get sick after eating hot dogs and tater tots. My mom begins to make a huge sub for herself, claiming to feel better after being sick. She tells me I can use the car tomorrow, and I ask for what. I have to go back to high school, so I open up the black backpack I use in college and find my old green backpack I used in high school inside of the cavernous bag.

"I hope we're learning the same stuff," I say, as I pull it out, worried. I had a 4.0 in high school, except for AP Calculus, which I failed, and that's what I'm most worried about. We have to do so much every night. The oriental kids did well, and that's it.

I put a thermometer under my tongue frantically. I need to be sick today because I'm not ready for school. My mom changes her mind about letting me use the car, so I have to be ready in time for the bus.

I run outside, and our next door neighbors happen to be the Marauders from Harry Potter. I can't help but stop and watch them. They're sitting on the front steps of the house alongside Harry himself. Sirius Black can't seem to sit still, and Remus Lupin's voice sounds way too husky and deep, like Professor Moody's should sound.

Oh.... my.... gosh....

I'm so upset that I didn't become lucid after this dream! Read it and you'll find out why:



I'm in my dorm room. Some friends and I are going to party here instead of go out, so we find an empty room, which is the family room of my house, and begin to eat. It's very dark in the room and nobody can turn on the light. Someone finds a rope, and I really want to jump rope, so I drop my food and start jumping. But I'm not very good at it, and i guess it frustrates the people swinging the rope, because instead of swinging it, they decide to tie me up, and they do a heck of a good job at it.

Sometimes, when you're tied up it's really easy to get free, but this time, my hands are in an odd position, next to my shoulders, so it's near impossible to get out. Luckily, someone comes in to help me out, and I feel really embarrassed. Since it's a party night, people keep coming into my room seriously wasted.

One girl enters, and throws up, and the contents are hot dogs. I tell her that is so weird, because I just had a dream where my mom was sick from eating hot dogs. Since I'm not a drinker, I decide to go on a field trip and help out a teacher with her little kids.

She accepts the help, and I quickly end up on a trail next to the desert, and also on the edge of the plains. She explains how we're going to explain the difference between Christian history and Scientific history. I sort of lag behind, making sure all the kids are here, and my friends end up being at the back of the group. I hear the teacher ask the children how old a Wildebeest is, and decide that my friends are much more fun.

While my friends and I are walking down the road, we spot a woman with a camel. Her son is on the camel's back, and the little boy can't be older than a year old.

"My one year old son can barely sit up on his own, let alone balance on a camel!" I exclaim. I then realize that my friends didn't know that I was pregnant, and wonder what they think of me having a baby. I begin to miss my son very much, so I decide to go back home.

I'm a Back to the Future case, and when i go to my house to visit my son, I almost interrupt my parents discussing their most recent, real life fight.

I can't help but leave, so I go to my son's room. I meet the Doc in the hallway on the way there and he begins to tell me everything that's been wrong about my dream... how females of this time period wouldn't be discussing the difference between science and christianity and there wouldn't be a camel so close to my dorms.

"Luckily," he says with an odd look on his face, "People get these!" and he lifts the robes he's wearing to reveal clogs, and he starts clogging happily.

A little girl enters the hallway and begins clogging too. She definitely shows up the Doc as he falls down. "If you begin to trust your sister, then the time continuum is faulted" he explains. I guess this little girl is his sister. But then I see Michael J Fox coming from around the corner, which is me, because I'm in Back to the Future, so i have to hide before I can see my baby son.

I'm with my sister on a long dirt road. It's windy, and in the distance a dust twister blows in a circle.

"This is why I hate being out here," she says, pointing at the twister. She wants to stay behind, so I run ahead. The dust from my footsteps become miniature twisters as I walk away from her. I go on to play a huge halo game with a lot of people from church. I hide out in a small hut, and in runs Jon Peter Lewis from American Idol, my favorite, with another guy because they're on The Amazing Race.

My task for The Amazing Race is to find a man and his dog and "shoot" them with my fake gun. I'm given their coordinates and a map. I have to mathematically figure out where he is, so i sit down and begin to figure it out. Now, everyone's playing Halo with these fake guns, and my score is very low because i'm busy trying to figure out where the guy and his dog is. So, I stop trying to find them, and start playing with everyone. After a long time, I want to stop playing, but nobody wants to stop killing me. Every time it's time to respawn, I start out very far away from where I want to go, and I can't leave without getting killed.

I find a more secret way out, but there's someone following me. Shots go past me, and I try jumping to get out of their way. Whoever is following me isn't very good, either. I try to turn around and kill him, but he's too fast. He pulls out a rocket launcher, but it's out of ammo. I manage to jump away, and he doesn't know exactly where I go.

I end up in a home decorating store with a lot of towels and furniture covers. Someone is talking about towels and what towels remind them of, but I stop paying attention when I pick up a triangular towel. Then, I need to find a place to sleep, back at the house where I was playing Halo, but all the places are taken. I try to get a spot on the top bunk next to someone else. Unfortunately, everyone is hurting each other while we're trying to sleep. the dream begins to fade and I wake up.

I'm with my mother, Julia Roberts, at a charity dinner and awards show. I leave her to hang out with some other kids my age. Someone is showing off the new way that people in the army can visit their sick parents or anyone really using a new type of helicopter. It stops above a building, and whoever the person in the army is will come down and meet their loved ones in the white hallway. They have 2.5 minutes until they have to leave again. I was taken with the camera crew to help show off this new idea.

When I get there, I sort of pretend that I'm a soldier coming back to visit a sick father, who is played by Simon Cowell. He's lying on a stretcher with his eyes closed, and I sort of laugh-whisper that he's a good actor. He manages to keep his eyes closed and a straight face until the camera is off, and then he keeps his eyes closed but smiles really big. I give him a big kiss on the forehead and leave.

On the way back, I meet a blond boy about my age, and we instantly hit it off. We go back hand in hand, and sit down next to each other.

Our whole section of older teens and early 20's kids are sitting on the ground watching the stage from further away, as if we're on a picnic or something. The boy smiles at me, and tickles me, and we roll around on the ground for a little bit. We look into each other's eyes and it seemed as though we were going to kiss, but he just grins and sits back up. It looks like Mel Gibson's nomination is coming up, and one of the cameras is closing in on him.

"I've gotta go," the guy says, and he gets up to sit down next to Mel Gibson, next to a few more kids. And then I realize... oh my gosh! This kid is Mel Gibson's SON! I don't have a chance with him. When it's time to go, Julia Roberts, my mom, starts seriously hitting on Mel Gibson, and I am so embarrassed because my crush is right there. I look down and wait until it's time to leave.

My mom takes us to Mel Gibson's house, and I'm suddenly only about 8 years old. She introduces me to his little daughter, and then her and Mel leave. We play with her dress-up stuff for a little bit, and then I grow up a little, to about 13 years old, and walk around with his daughter. His mansion is enormous, and I feel like I'm in the lobby of a hotel and not a house. We go to the party room, where there are crackers and cheese and other snacks. Lily, who apparently is Mel Gibson's sister, and the girl's aunt is completely drunk.

"Liiiiiiily!" the aunt says, stumbling around. The girl does a pretty good impression of her, which probably means Aunt Lily is drunk all the time. I go around to find my mom, and find her and Mel outside of the bathroom. She convinces me that I need to take a shower.

I go in, and there are 4 showers in there. The ones on my left and right are just regular showers, and the ones in front of me are two tub showers, but in order to get in the second one, you have to climb through the first one. Mel comes in, and says he's going to take a shower too, and takes the one to my left. My mom takes the one on the right, leaving me with the tub showers. I get undressed right in the middle, because neither of them can see me in their showers, but Julia opens up hers.

"Mom!" I say, covering myself.

"What?" she asks. She's wearing a robe. She goes over to Mel's shower. I try to ignore them while I get into mine.

"I'm married," Mel says.

"So are you really protesting that I'm in here?" Julia says. "If you are then push me out and close the door." I hear no pushing nor shutting of doors, so I can only assume that they are now bathing together.

After I'm done, I get to wear new clothes, and Mel's son comes into the bathroom. Mel and Julia were just getting done, and Mel tells his son to clean up for him, which I think is absolutely degrading. I try to ignore what's going on. When he's done, he takes my hand and leads me out. We go back to the party room and it seems to be a different day, because there are more snacks than before, and different guests. Aunt Lily is still going around drunk though. This time Mel's son does an impression, and again, it's a very good impression. Mel's son leans towards me, and tells me that he loves me, and I say I love him too.

This actually took place before the previous dream...

Gandalf is leading me and Pippin into a house with some crazy doors all over the place. He warns us to stay with him, and opens the door. I see "48 X 48 X 48 X 48" written on a small gold plaque on the wall. It's a square room, so i guess it's the dimensions, but the fourth one... well, is it measuring time?

"Hurry!" Gandalf says. He's holding a door open for us. We're in a room filled with random sized and shaped doors. He takes the first one on the left, and then the first one on the left again. He's counting down, and soon 48 seconds is up. Gandalf is in the room ahead of us. That door shuts, separating us from him. The doors all grow taller and their handles disappear. I turn to Pippin.

"Oh no," he says, turning to me. We try to go through the door, and it pushes open reluctantly, but the room isn't the room that Gandalf was in. Apparently, for 48 seconds, the house's doors will lead naturally from one room to the other, but after that, it's completely random where the doors will lead you. We try other doors, and finally end up back outside. Gandalf is there waiting for us. He calls us fools, and wants us to go again. This time, I'm separated from both of them, and I can't find my way out. I begin to get scared. Some doors open to frightening monsters, and others into forests.

I thought I'd be lost forever until Gandalf found me.

It's time for the homecoming dance, and since it's so unseasonably hot outside, I decide to wear my bathing suit instead. It's a rich blue two piece, and the bottom is a little skirt. I go put it on and come back down to show it off to my date's family, who's waiting in the limo, but I forgot the skirt, so I'm basically just wearing a swimsuit. Not only that, but my legs aren't shaved from the knee up, and when I show my "outfit", my date's father immediately looks at my hairy legs. I get out of the limo; my date hasn't even gotten in yet, and say that I forgot my purse. I really wanted to just grab a razor, and the skirt to my bathing suit.

Except, I can't find the skirt anywhere. I look all over my house: in my bathing suit drawer, the closet, and in the laundry. I find a new wardrobe that I've never seen before, and think that it might be in there. I have to basically climb like a monkey on it to get into the drawers, and when I get to the top, it becomes so top heavy that it starts to fall towards me. I just barely get out of the wardrobe's way as it thuds to the ground. I decide I'll just leave in my bathing suit. Before I can leave, I check my cell phone, and I had about 4 missed calls from the same number. It's the boy next door, a kid about 12 years old, and he's having trouble with some schoolwork and wants me to help.

Suddenly, he's at the door, and my mom says. "Ok, Ash, you've gotta help me with this!" I tell her I can't because I'm about to leave for homecoming, but she shoves a scan-tron test under my nose. I have to do the test for the kid next door. I do a really crappy job and just leave. We go to the dance, which just ends up being at someone's house. When I get there, someone asks me to sit with them, and I say that I have to go to the bathroom. I go to the back room, and find a bathroom, but there's a fake wall on the bathroom, and behind it is Colin and Jenny (friends from class) in Colin's room. They're laughing about something, but I can't join them because I still have to shave my legs.

I'm a robot, but I'm still human, with human feelings. My creator made me for a bad purpose: to blow up a building filled with people. Luckily, I found a family who was kind enough to take care of me and hide me from my maker and his son, Jason. I was terrified of them, because they would not only use me to kill other people, but they would kill me as well. I hid upstairs with a girl named Jessi while everyone was evacuating the building; I must have told someone that it was going to explode.

Jason comes up the stairs, and I run down a different staircase and outside. It is dark, and people are running away screaming. I jump into the back seat of an unlocked truck, and close the door behind me, hoping that nobody would see me.

I wait in the darkness, trying not to cry. Someone in the front opens the door and gets in the driver's seat. I cower in the back, hoping to hide in the shadows. The door next to me opens, splashing me with light from the street lamps.

It's Jason, his dad is in the front seat. I scoot away from Jason, and try to open the door on the other side, but his dad locked the doors, and I couldn't open it. Jason smiles evilly and tells me that I belong to them, and he slams the door. I start to cry. Jason's father unlocks the doors for Jason, and we begin to drive away. I'm being kidnapped, and can't find a way to get out. I take a look at the lock on the door, and it's still in the "unlock" position. Taking a deep breath, I open the door.

"HEY!" Jason's father yells. "Get her!" But it's too late. I watch the pavement rush past for a few moments before I gain enough courage to jump out. I'm safe.

My brother and I were walking through a graveyard at night, reading what was on the stones. We came to one that was blank, and when we looked closer, a voice came from the ground. "Will you help me?" It was very scary, but I kept my courage, and answered "Yes" She came up from the grave, and I thought she was going to kill us, but instead she told us how she died. "I was killed when I was 17," she explained. "My husband murdered me. Will you travel back to 1809 to save me?" We did

The best part about the past was the highway... it was completely covered with snow, and since there were no cars, everyone was on the highway with old fashioned bicycles.

April 18 (a little late)

I became lucid early in the night, so it wasn't as clear when I woke up. I realized I was dreaming somehow, and ended up in front of a mirror, trying to change my red hat into a big red cowboy hat. It wasn't working though, and I was getting pissed.

April 30

My dad is John Goodman and there's this scene like in Roseanne where he has a heart attack in my mom's car. Mom and I visit him in the hospital, and on the way out we're talking. I ask her how she is, and she said okay. I tell her she doesn't sound okay, and she collapses. She's rushed inside, and I get a note later asking "did I black out yesterday? Please tell me." It was from mom... Apparently, she lost her memory of what had happened to her and dad.

my friends and I start watching kill bill

There's a sword fight. The main character is being chased by a group of people with long swords. They are in a room with large, thin drums. Ther'e's a moment of "wow, this is gonna rock" before the fight begins. Drums start pounding all over the place as they fight. Some get ripped opened by the long swords. The scene ends with the main character getting thrown off the edge and the bad guy coming up to the edge and watching them fall.

I pass a dead guy coughing up a small pile of hay

Old best friends' mom shows up. I ask her how things are going. She starts talking about money, immediately. Apparently she's single now. I think of my other friend's single mom, who never complains that she doesn't have enough money.

Huge pools
I want to go swimming in the large, odd looking reflective pools surrounded by high mounds. I start to take off my pants, adn someone reminds me that I'm wearing my homemade underwear, so I shouldn't go swimming in them. I just put my feet in, which is hard to do because the edge is so sloped. i end up just falling in anyway. There are huge blankets in the water. I'm next to a door, which is under water. my friend makes fun about how she's gonna let me fall the rest of the way, and I say no, because of all the blankets, I might get under and not get back up.

Midnight chased by shadow
I get home and see my black cat being chased by the neighbor's black dog. I try to help, but they're so fast. Since I'm at my old house, she runs into the garage, and actualy manages to open the door by pushing on it, despite it being heavy and closed.

May 1st

Almost Lucid
I remember waking up in the middle of the night, and then trying a WILD. I was so tired, i barely remember it, but I do remember suddenly seeing what I was thinking, while still conscious. Hypnogigic Imagery! I immediately started counting in my head, first randomly, and then by 10's. Then I lost whatever it was I had.

Joan of Arcadia setting off the fire alarm
Joan is trying to talk to someone, and gets frustrated, so she puts her finger up to the fire alarm, which sets it off. We all go outside, and I try to stay away from the firemen. Some of the firemen are not working though. They are playing baseball in the baseball diamond. I have to use a vacuum cleaner for the firemen, and basically dust off everything. It is so dirty, it took a very long time.

Aquarium
We go to an aquarium, and it's absolutely beautiful. The fish are bright, like from Finding Nemo, and every once in a while, we see a mermaid swimming at the bottom of the tank.

May 2nd

I find out that my brother's school really needs help. There are 900 kids his age there, and lots in other classes, too. The school is too full, and the children aren't learning enough. So, me and my friends find out what we can do to help. We go with some kids and help them learn math. After that one day, we go into a montage of how we help. My friend Michael and I dress up as prostitutes and teach kids how at a local level, prostitution is less accepted than at an urban level. Ben (my friend) and Jenny (my other friend) get married, and as a joke, Ben decides to bring chips and a pop to the honeymoon to pretend to spoil the mood. Jenny's already there with snacks, but she's completely serious, which is funny. We have to lead the kids through other lessons since the school is not large enough. A wedding is going on and I'm snorting my way through it with someone else.


Then I'm in Survivor, and the game is like playing Myst. I have to find something to unlock a door, and I end up winning.

May 3rd

I dreamt there was a dementor in the back seat of my car. I tried to scream, but nothing came out. The dark creature kept ducking behind the seat and popping out, and every time I tried to yell for help, but no sound would result.

May 8th?

I took b6 for my first time, and had a great dream about my crush and I going to a movie. The seats reclined into a very comfortable position. He got up to get popcorn, and sat in the row behind me, instead. He propped up his feet on either side of my head on the seat. I asked him why he was putting his feet up, and he sait it was more comfortable. He then leaned forward and smooched me on the back of my neck (my favorite place... but he doesn't know that, in real life) He climbed back down next to me and we reclined, making out during the whole horror movie. He stood up, and took my hand. "Come on, let's go" He took me to the local amusement park and we kissed some more. It was awesome.

Back to some Dream Journaling for the first time in a long while

I took B6 again for the first time in a long time and I noticed it when i shut my eyes to go to sleep. It usually takes a while for my body to get this floating feeling, but it happened almost immediately last night. When I shut my eyes, the moving shapes were moving more rapidly than usual. I had a swelling feeling of happiness. I was completely aware that I was lying on my bed, but it also felt like I could have been upright. I tried to think of a place, and I thought of Harry Potter's castle since I saw the movie recently and it's pretty magical. I imagined the lake next to the castle, and the moving shpaes in my vision disappeared. It became unnaturally dark in my vision, and I really liked it. While I couldn't see what I was imagining, i could feel it very clearly, if that makes any sense. I tried to imagine other people, and it felt like they were there but i couldn't see them in the blackness. During all of this, i was totally aware that i was in bed. I "woke up" at a noise from the other side of my room. I was really tired, so i stopped trying to WILD and just went to sleep.

I am pregnant with two different aged babies. I'm in the hospital waiting for labor to start. The babies and my uterus are taken out of my body for a while, and will be put back in when it's time to birth them. I get caught up in something and remember that I need to keep an eye on the babies. When i go back to check on them, they are moviing around, trying to get out of the uterus. I cut it open and take out my two children. THe older one already has a lot of hair. He smiles and his cheeks are full and cute. He looks so sunny, and I immediately try to think of a name. Aaron comes to mind first. My husband and I go to the doctor and show him. The doctor says we can still put the baby up inside me and birth him out, but i say that's not necessary. I can't think of any names. Ryan Turner is one. My husband loves the name Turner, and I know he will call the baby Turner if that is his middle name.

Later on...

I'm harry potter, and I'm on some kind of strange vertical moving staircase that is kind of like an escalator. I see malfoy's name on a gold nameplate, and it gets knocked over, which means he will die soon. But is it the son or the father?

My junior year english teacher (my favorite teacher of all time) is my guardian. She and I live in Argentina in a small house, and something is calling me to America. I don't know if it's because i've been mistreated, or if I'm expected to do something I don't want to do, but I have an intense feeling of wanting to run away. I have a friend who feels the same way, and he comes to my house one night and tells me we're going to run away to America. He says we can walk there, and I become doubtful. America is too far away to walk, but he convinces me that it will only take a month. I pack my suitcase in the dead of night, and leave my teacher behind. We begin walking. It is a long journey, and my feet hurt like hell. Along the way we stop at a mansion, hoping that whoever lives there will give us food and water and rest. All of the servants seem to know me, and lead me into the house. I accidentally break a green glass vase, but they say it's okay. I step on some of the pieces frantically trying to pick them up. They say to stop it, i'll hurt myself. so I stop. We eat and leave. We finally arrive in Ohio, at the University of Cincinnati, which was our destination. Someone leads me through the labyrinth of stairs and pathways into the heart of campus. My real father is there, and he jumps to the top of the highest building and gives me a trumpet. Although, I don't play trumpet, my brother does. I am there for a long time, but have a sudden urge to leave. I can't remember how to get out. I go up these stairs, but they lead to the hospital, so i try to find my way out through the hospital but all the nurses point me back to where I came from. I'm back to the large staircase. There's a service road below me, but for some reason I didn't want to go that direction. I say that I want to go back home, so the scenery around me changes. I'm back to my guardian's house, although it's different as if years have passed. I find my teacher. She sees me, and begins to cry. She gives me a hug and tells me she didn't know where I had gone and that she missed me a lot. She thought I had died, but I had come back to her.
