The Dream Magic Experiment

6:19 am

I was in the MRT, or near the MRT. I was going to go through the mall but it looks like it's still too early so they're closed. I lined up. I ended up somehow in a donut store. I bought some food/coffee. I was talking to someone while I was sitting down and I said good bye or something. The woman in front of me said something in our local dialect, and I was surprised so I asked her if she's from Negros. She said we met in Philcoa before.

I was walking along a path. I was going somewhere, but the road/path might be dangerous. I went ahead anyways.

NOTES:

* I slept around quarter to 1 a.m.
* I woke up earlier and I thought I was already awake. I went back to sleep while trying to remember dream (or thinking of blank space).
* I thought it's already around noon, when I usually wake up. I was pleasantly surprised to find it's still 6 a.m.

I was taking responsibility for a team.

I was on the road, waiting for a bus.

I was in a mall of sorts. I was leading a team. My sister was there. I had a key. I opened doors.

There was a small gap between walls but too small. We went through the door.

A meeting with Thumbtack. Mik and others did parkour after talking on the stage. I raised my fist and shouted something like "Woooo" or "Yeaaaah".

NOTES:

- mild headache when I woke up
- dizzy
- slept around 4:30 am, woke up due to phone at 9-10 am, woke up again now 11:55 am.
-

I was in my room. Or at least a room. I was half-kneeling on the floor, as if I just dropped down from somewhere. I knew I was dreaming. I decided to go through the window, but it stopped me. I punched through it and the window panes broke down, but behind it, there's concrete and bricks. I can't escape.

NOTES:

I didn't feel desparate, just frustrated that I can't get anywhere in the dream, despite knowing that I'm dreaming.

Yesterday:

I was in a house or mall. I was taking the parkour workshop. We were supposed to do a flow from one area to another. The catch is that we're blindfolded or we have our eyes closed. I was able to do rolls. cat hangs, etc.

10:39 p.m.

I was in a parkour training session. We were traveling from place to place. One place is a mall of sort. One guy was to be the "rabbit" and we were to chase him. I had a skateboard or a mall cart with someone on it. I was supposed to move him as well while chasing the guy. We gave the guy a few minutes then we chased. I think we were supposed to make him wear the shirt or take it off.

It didn't take long and I was disappointed. I started doing solo. I jumped from ledge to ledge, on the wide stairs, and I did some amazing flow. I went up high on the floors and watched some of the traceurs below. I thought of wearing a disguise, if I was the "rabbit", and walk inconspicuously among them if ever.

We were going down, sliding and vaulting, the stairs on the way to the train station. I saw my crush down below.

It was EDSA and it's usually really tight. I was talking/thinking about how to avoid it by taking certain routes on the sides.

I was seeing the routes at night, quarter-top view. The roads and the lights are visible, but it's mostly dark.

I was in a motel. I think it was a prize of sorts. Or I was just staying overnight somewhere.

I was looking down at a map. Trying to figure out where QC is or certain places. There was supposed to be a Tibetan meditation event the next day. Somehow, one of the members needed/wanted to join and was hoping the rest would join as well.

I was looking at a map of a mountain separating two areas. There's QC. What's the other side? Not clear.

NOTES:

- I went to sleep around 8:20 p.m., hoping to get some shut eye as I was getting really tired. I woke up around 1.5 hours later. I first checked my phone and saw 10:xx p.m. and was surprised. Then I thought it was just the phone. Maybe the time and date reset when it was off. But I though it must be earlier than 5 or 6 a.m. since the alarm hasn't sounded.
- I opened my computer and saw the time was accurate.
- Twilight Zone
- No parkour training last Sunday due to rain
- Been trying to jump a bit around in the unit.
- Weird how I kept missing my dream signs (train, mall, crush)

9:53 a.m.

I was in some sort of town or place. It's starting to get overrun by gangsters made up of mainly teenagers and some even prepubescent boys. I was walking along the street when I saw one group. They were fighting. It's a mix of adults and young boys, but the latter made up most of the group. I either "tiptoe" all around the place while they fight (they seem to ignore me) or I run away at the sight of them. The latter became more common after a while. There are afternoon and night times.

At some point, I tried hiding in dorm houses (or just plain houses) only to find that some were already there or some were looking for people with keys to dorm houses so they can get inside. It started getting "scarier" at that point. The kids are no longer just gangster kids. They were possessed. The more they "kill" or do something with, the more they spread out. Like a virus. Almost like a zombie movie, except that they seem conscious. Maybe a Las Plagas zombie.

Some people are starting to move to the "next town", and I joined in the exodus. But along the way, we encounter death and destruction caused by the possessed. It was very much like a zombie apocalypse, with ruined buildings and deserted cities.

Somehow, I and the group I was with, ended up in a hotel-like place. I saw some horrific scents where a person is... I'm not sure how to describe it, but some horror/thriller games show it pretty well... a living person "nailed" by a huge nail to a humanoid monstrosity through her private part, people ripped apart by possessed humans, and all of this within the confines of probably someplace that looks like Amnesia or Silent Hill buildings, with a bloody hospital-like setting. Or a dirty morgue. At some parts, I was avoiding them, while at other parts, I was kind of jumping around (tiptoeing?) around the creatures. Also, that human nailed to the monster was the girlfriend of one of our companions. I have the idea that we were slowly getting killed as we traverse the area but I don't really recall.

At one point, I discovered the "nest" of the main possessed being (or maybe just a really strong monster). I was alone then. The being was "sleeping" in a room filled with clothing or sheets. It was under those sheets so I couldn't see it but I knew it was there and I could hear it breathing. I decided that what safer place to be in than the room of the big monster? No smaller monster will try to harass the thing, and me as well.

The view shifted somehow and I was with other in a room with... stuff. Not a room, I guess, but more of a warehouse. We found the "egg" that started the horror. But somebody (me?) cracked it accidentally and will now attempt to spread the horror (maybe this was the first part?). The guy who was raped by a demon (I think) and produced that egg lamented that it shouldn't be allowed to "wake up".

NOTES:

- slept at around 5 a.m.
- I felt more of a lack of breath while jumping around but not much of horror.
- I was reading some true-story thrillers before sleeping.
- I took out my keys while in the elevator and corridor and worried someone might duplicate them somehow and invade our place.
- I saw the salty egg in the kitchen earlier and wondered if it's still good.
- This would be interesting to interpret.
- I seem to have tried doing parkour moves somewhere in the dream, but I could remember clearly.

10 a.m.

I was in a mall. I was with people. Friends? IRL, they're unfamiliar, but in the dream, they're friends, co-workers.

We were going home. We were carrying some stuff. I was carrying some stuff for one guy I like. Not sure what it was. I think our friends were expecting me to make a move already, but I was too shy.

I think it's the same day (might be a different day). It seems like the same mall. I was walking with a friend (A). We were walking close, me on his right, our arms touching, but not holding hands. We looked for a place to eat. I was looking for pork or liempo. Found one in the mall. One guy told me something. He was a flat mate.

NOTES:

- Slept at 3
- Alarm at 6, didn't hear it
- Woke up initially at 8, went back to sleep

around 11 a.m.

I was walking. I was looking for something but I forgot what.

I passed by a cemetery. I was with someone. The cemetery was awesome. It has a library in the middle.

I met up with Rob. He pointed out the coffee that was ready. He said something about a trip to Australia in the past that we took (IRL, I never had to chance to visit other countries).

NOTES:

- I slept around 5 a.m.
- I played Subliminal 2.0 in the background the whole time.

I was in a hospital. Bed ridden. Then it was sis who was bed ridden. I think it's a ward. There are many people, but at least the place seems clean. There's sunlight going through the windows.

I was in a BPO, taking calls, but I kept interleaving a phone call I received. I was talking to a customer. She needs to check something, a printer, to see if it works. At first I was confused what we were talking about. It's like I woke up while taking calls. I gave her instructions, like trying color and black and white cartridges and another PC.

Then we were talking face to face in a mall. The center was in a mall. I reassured her, and tapped her on the shoulder, and told her though that if it still doesn't work, she will have to get a new one. On the phone, I thought she was an elderly woman, but face to face, she looks young. Or was it vice versa?

After our talk, I went to line up to buy tickets to Bulacan.

2:17 a.m.

I was sitting in front of a table. The place seems familiar. A canteen. I was talking with a friend (Jade?) who I haven't seen in a few months. There were other people there I believe. The color theme seems white.

I was talking with him when he took offense at what I said. He stood up and said something (I can't remember now). I was answering back. He was sarcastic. I was just being calm. He left after saying something sarcastic (something about sleeping with friends). I let him walk away and told the other people there that sometimes you lose some friends.

Then there were trains and others.

Suddenly, I was talking to Ivan and a memory about attending a PK jam shook me awake.

NOTES:

- Woke up feeling tired and almost sick
- I had minimal sleep during the week because I was attending whole-day training and trying to work at night.
- I wasn't able to do much exercise.
- I was drinking a lot of coffee during the week.
- I feel sleepy most of the time.
- I slept around 11 a.m. and set alarm to 1 p.m. so I can prepare.
- I woke up 1 p.m. but promptly fell asleep.

9:09 a.m.

I was traveling. I was in a bigger kind of jeep, almost a bus, called "double tire".

I saw an aunt, uncle and their son, R. I said something like I went to the hospital in Silay. The aunt and uncle argued with me about something related to it. I just got annoyed because they were not making sense; why would they be mad about *that*?

I was in Bacolod. Thoughts about Don Bosco and some huge fleas.

11:36 a.m.

Airplane? Almost late? Print? Slow? asdfasf

4:06 p.m.

I was in a supermarket. I was looking for eggs. I saw some huge ones with three yolks (I was imagining them being cooked while in the supermarket). I was with a person. A woman.

NOTES:

Originally slept at 5:30 a.m. Woke up a bit, wrote the crappy notes, then went back to sleep.

I was talking to y and b in a spa.

Y talks about healing modalities. A call center was haunted.

I told them that's why I don't like doing any of that services for work, people just complain.

I was about to leave; he asks didn't I say I was too sleepy. I told him it's easier at home.

I looked for a jeep. I was unsure if there are jeep at this hour (around 3 a.m.). I found one.

The jeep went past my location because I was distracted. I tried to sign to the driver to stop. He was driving but he's at the back. It's like I'm looking at the driver behind another jeep.

i saw myself "drop" a soul on the street corner, just as the jeep turned a corner. i was returning souls to their locations/to the streets.

NOTES:

- Slept around 8 a.m.
- I meditated before sleep.
- Left it playing with Subliminal 2.0 and meditation music in the background.
- Woke up with Loveland by Jai Uttal playing (just beginning).
- Slept at around 10 p.m. last night, woke up at 1 a.m. Worked a bit, ate.
- Felt the muscle pain from yesterday's PK jam at around 6 a.m. (around 12 hours).

1:12 p.m.

I was in a small community. It's unfamiliar.

I decided to hide in a store, a place that I somehow thought they'd never look. People looking for me. I'm not from there. I don't know what they want to do. I think I was female, and the owner of the store (also female) said that one day, someone needs to take care of the store and marry her son (who is still a boy).

A storm or a fight. I/We have to hide.

I was in a building. Yellowish color theme. The floors are fooling around. The elevators disappeared. Good thing I ended up in floor 27, so I just took the stairs to go down. I/We ended up in the basement. White theme. Some things to explore. I felt excited, although I think the place is prohibited.

NOTES:

- Went to sleep several times, last being around 11:56 a.m.
- Last was with 26-minute meditation (Sam Harris)

5:52 p.m.

I was in an Amway event. I was with mom. It's along city streets, but not familiar. My orientation of it was somehow near Greenfields (where there's a weekly Saturday bazaar). I was talking to the woman who's selling the tickets for another event/promo. Mom wanted to join but I can only afford one at the time. I asked the woman questions about whether the ADC in Shaw transferred. She mentioned some other unfamiliar places, but she's also unsure.

I was walking down a wavy path, bordered by plants and then some sort of plant hangers above. The "wave" is just like a sea wave, i.e. up and down, not sideways. There was supposed to be some sort of zip line to make the travel easier, but I didn't take it. It was easy enough. I had a sense of deja vu, like I was there before. I met up with some friends who also took the path.

Nearby, there were some pagans praying or praising someone or something. I think they were praising or chanting one old woman's name, but the old woman didn't want it so she chanted something else, a name of a deity or nature. Everyone else followed.

I was in a restaurant. Or was it a fast food chain? I was with a friend (Amben?). I was going to order something. I also had a feeling of deja vu, like I've been in these places in other dreams.

NOTES:

- Slept at around 9:30 a.m.
- Ate in Jollibee last night (I didn't sleep after).

12:35 a.m.

I was waiting for a jeepney along the street. Not sure where. I felt somehow it's in Bacolod, near the North Terminal area. I was going to the Libertad area. There were a lot of jeeps but none of what I want. The mood seems a bit gloomy, but not cloud or rainy.

Finally, when I found one (that goes through "Sandayan", which I "saw" as near Libertad), a lot of people ran for it, mostly working adult males. A kid tried to ride as well. He asked if someone will let him set on their lap (which is usual for kids so they get free fare, but usually done with parents). I pointed out instead to a small gap in the seats, and the other adults pointed it out as well, but he refused, wanting only to get a free ride.

NOTES:

- I used 26-minute meditation by Sam Harris.
- I used Subliminal 2.0 after as I fall asleep (I didn't notice when it finished as I fell asleep already).
- I went to sleep around 6:30 a.m.
