Nothing special, took abit longer to fall asleep though.

I was house sitting for a friend of my parents and threw a big party. There was a DJ, booze and I think some people used the pool too.
We divided the gang into 4 groups, each had to wrap a person into blue bubblewrap. I was the one being wrapped. I noticed all my friends were in other groups and I didn't know any of the people wrapping me in but one. A girl I haven't seen since primary school.
So then the game started, but I'm not sure what the objective was. It had something to do with not getting caught by the other teams. At one point I'm thinking to go stand in the line to get a beer, but then I decided not to because they might attack from the back. I figured that was my team's job: to keep me "hydrated". But there was noone around I could spot (mainly because I didn't know any of them).
Suddenly the situation changes when the owners get back. The place is messy, but I don't tell them about my party. I blame it on my sister while I'm cleaning up (I don't even have a sister, irl. RC noted).

Same thing as last night: no experiments, need sleep. Breathing & mantras.

1. I'm driving with my dad and my brother in a car. I'm not allowed to drive irl yet. My mom follows us on a scooter. I kinda suck at it: keep forgetting to cross intersections from the right lane, not using my turn signals. I also drove into a school, which was like a maze that I couldn't get out from. My biggest fear is that I won't be able to brake, because the pedal feels very hard, like I don't have enough strength to use it's full potential. I've had this dream 3-4 times now, this is the first time it got messy. I always take the same road, but this time I derailed from it.

2. Can only remember fragments from this dream. It's located in a cafe, especially in a room on the second floor with a balcony. Again I'm not sure what part I play. There is a tall woman, she's probably the waitress. There is an older lady (she must be the owner). There are two guys (they must be the ones running the bar for the older lady), the younger one is more handsome - he's the one the girl is interested in. The guys leave for some time and when they get back in their American-type convertible, they enter through the backdoor. It's a black steel plate with a white painting on it: like a ghost or a witch. Upon return they discover that the younger woman had a child. The kid is in a buggy on the balcony. The woman died her hair to a dark color (I'm not sure how it was before, though). She's pleading the younger fella to have another kid with her. He tells her this bar is no place for a child. She points out that her current child is just fine here (the one on the balcony, with a ridiculous name I can't remember: something like Butter or Sunflower).

Note to self: STAY IN BED. SAY: "WHAT DID I JUST DREAM?"

Drank some water before bed, didn't wake up at night though. What's a good amount to drink?
Had my alarm set for 7am, woke up to turn it off and failed recall. Went back to sleep after bathroom.
After waking up a second time, still no memory. Then, suddenly something triggered it. Can't really be sure which dream it was, or whether it was just my imagination.


Me and two of my best friends are sitting at a table ready to play some poker. We are in a cafeteria-type room, with the dimensions of something you could compare to a train wagon, but I seem to be under the impression that we might be on a boat. We are dividing the chips, but since they're not labeled we're trying to figure out their value. I'm trying to make stacks, but because of the shape of the chips the stacks keep collapsing.

At the other table there is a girl, who I recognise as someone from primary school (I used to have a little crush on her). I know it's her, but her face looks different. We exchange a glance. She's with a group of people (girls) and they're not playing poker.

I get up to walk to another room and when I'm in that other room I see a big box, like a laundry trolley, but it has no wheels. When I try to pee into the box, someone behind me says something along the lines of: "I never thought you would stoop so low". The face is not recognisable, neither is the posture. Not even sure if it's a man or a woman but it's some kind of teacher. As the teacher tells me this, I see there is a bathroom at the end of the room. I attempt to fake my intention of peeing in the box, by dropping to the floor pretending I'm searching for something on my cell phone. There is a map on my cell phone, with some locations marked on it.

Might be too soon to recognise a pattern, but so far school was somehow always involved.
The need to pee was probably induced by my blatter in reality, though it wasn't strong enough to actually make me wake up.
