Nightmares
last night i had an extremely vivid and disturbing dream. i was in a house that was a hybrid of my own and my friends house. i hear a knock on the door and it's this guy i know (we'll call him A) that has a horrible personality IRL and i dislike him with a passion. i haven't answered the door yet but i know it's him because he's speaking (it sounds like he's reading out the course outline for one of my psychology courses) and i recognise his voice. then i hear some other people approaching (about 15 or so, and they all sound about 16 or 17) and they hassle A. he keeps just saying random words: "consciousness, neural bases of behavior, learning and conditioning.." then they start stabbing him and laughing cruelly A: "are you stabbing me?" the stabbing sound was incredibly disturbing and realistic. i was sitting inside listening to all this and freaking out, almost feeling every stab because i can hear it so clearly. then it stops and the mob sounds satisfied, laughing and joking about A's death "look, it's a dead A. hahahahahahaahah!" all this time i want to go out and do something about it but i know i'll just be killed as well. i was pretty terrified obviously. i hear them leave and then i tentitively go to the door and only catch a glimpse of A and then look away. he certainly looks dead. he's lying still with blood oozing out of his stab wounds. i decide to call the cops so i go find my cellphone. i go to back to my room (which doesn't look like my room whatsoever) and find it. i dial 2000 (the proper police number in New Zealand is 111) and hear an american voice on the other end. "hello this is the police blah blah blah" i say nothing, still in shock, but i'm also starting to get a little confused by this whole situation and something seems very fishy. operator: "come forth or front from the weather" me: "uh yeah i think they killed A, they stabbed him man...." then i woke up and heard a bunch of laughing teenage voices in the alley that had gotten into my dreams and had become the laughing mob. so many dreamsigns!!! and i almost figured out i was dreaming! dang man.
so im in an airport minding my own business and i hear some commotion from somewhere. i look to see this kid (like 8 or 9) stealing the shoes (literally) off some helpless traveller. im shocked and i want to do something about it but the kid is getting away. hes already gotten outside but when he looks back into the airport through the glass walls i make eye contact with him and point to let him know this shit is unacceptable. then (very much like last nights dream) shit hits the fan and i know this little gangster kid is going to beat the crap out of me. so...I RUN! another chase dream. so im running through this airport with this kid on my tail but my useless smoker lungs are holding me back and the kid catches up and he fucking stabbed me man! and it really hurt. up until now i had no idea how much real pain can be experienced in dreams. at this point i black out and there some kind of game over screen. it looks like a close up of the metroid helmet (not sure if the image actually exists in the game, haven't actually played metroid) and i am re-spawned sitting on a bench in this strange stone maze. i can still feel the pain from the stabbing and i lift up my shirt to see three nasty looking stab wounds. touch them and become more and more aware of the pain in my internal organs. i awake and still feel like ive just been stabbed and have to check my chest again hahahah
