So, this will be my first DJ entry since a long, long time. A couple of days ago I signed up for the DVAcadamy MILD-1 class, ready to get back at LD. Due to me being...geographically illocated, I had to get out of bed at 3 am. That means this night is split up into two parts, one from before class and one afterwards.
Apparently I'm going to some sort of gamescamp this summer, where I'll be practicing a lot of games. Not videogames, mind you, regular ones that later on just turn out not to be so regular at all. I played a lot, but remember around 2 of them. For the first game, I went back to the neighbourhood I grew up in. I was then inflated like a balloon and sent 'out there'. Goal of the game was to find a way to lose all the air and get back to the ground without popping. The catch was that they send two people after me with friggin crowbars () to do exactly that. After a lot of asking people for solutions, getting chased and generally getting used to this new way moving around in the first place, I found myself in the house of a woman around her 50s. She had gray, short trimmed hair and said to be able to deflate me. I crossed the ceiling to the other end of the room (where she was), heard her say some fancy magical words, and I happily deflated to my normal self. I remember being genuinely scared for the two Gordon Freemans they sent after me, but the overall dream didn't really feel like a nightmare or such.
The second game involved me and three other people. Together we formed two teams and sat at a table. Each team got a crossword puzzle that we had to solve before the other team did and each round you could answer one of the questions. After each turn we had to grab an egg from a huge bowl and eat it. In it would be a gamecard ("You get to answer one more word in this turn.", "Eat another egg.", etc.) There were also certain words which had a little, gray flag-icon next to it. These were words without a question and for which we could buy letters somehow. When you had the word finished (in our case it was "POTIONS") you had to guess what the question could have been ("This product is made by the cosmeticsindustry" - which I guessed correctly). I can't exactly remember how the game ended, we probably got bored of it.
Ok, so then I woke up, wrote down that dream and logged in for class. Took about 80mins and then I got back to sleep. I really tried for "I'm going to lucid dream!" to be my last thought awake, dragging my conscience back like a caveman every time it started to wander and stray off. I noticed I couldn't fall asleep anymore, so I tried to lessen the amount of cavemannery and probably fell asleep. It takes practice, I guess.
In this short dreamfragment I remember making sugared olive candy with someone (can't remember who). They looked and tasted like that sugary bean stuff, but hell yeah they were made from olives.

I'm Vivi from Final Fantasy IX, or at least someone who has the same looks. I find myself at a train station and apparently I have to catch an airtrain (combination between plane and train). Even more disturbing: Steiner is racing me. I buy a ticket, pass the gates and enter the wrong train >_>. Eager to get out, personel tells me I'll have to wait a minute or two for some weird ass reason. When I finally get out I run towards the airtrain I dó have to catch, it's already taking of. Fortunately I get still get in.
During flight Steiner is constantly trying to bash me (childish), but by bashing the x-button I stay ahead of him and arrive on our destination on time. Wherever that is.
Obviously I had that least dream because my little brother recently finished his first playthrough of ff9.
