    1. Parkour Fail

      by , 12-29-2012 at 08:16 AM (Cinder's Dreams Gallery)
      I think I’ve had this dream two weeks ago or something, but frankly I can’t remember shitall and I just can’t stand the thought of procrastinating on my dream journal any more. I want to end my self-inflicted dream break that went longer than expected and now I can’t recall anything.

      It was a dream fragment, somehow I’m in front of my old school’s indoor stadium and there is this tree with something (I forgot) perched on it. My mom was with me. I had a shotgun and I tried to shot it but the shotgun flew over onto the top of the building from the knockback. I climbed up and started jumping with ridiculous strength and grace and tried to run on the wall to grab the gun, but I timed my jump wrong and fell off the building.

    2. A Life lesson in the form of dreams

      (this was actually supposed to be my first entry but I accidentally made it a draft!!)

      Ok so recently my friends and I have been talking a lot about going away on a lads holiday next year and also local club nights that are U18, so all this will have probably created this epic dream that happened to be semi lucid too. Then I went through two other dreams or sections that were completely unrelated to this but still had some relevance to my real life.

      As per normal I'm relatively unfamiliar how exactly the dream starts but I know it is somewhere along the lines of my best mate Harry (not Harri) being at my house and talking about going to this epic club night that happened to be nearby. He said it was one that was an overnight stay (almost like a teen slumber party mixed in with a full blown club night) and that he was all packed and ready to go so he would meet me there. As he left unfortunately (as I find common in my dreams when I'm trying to pack for something) I couldn't find any of the items I wanted to take and actually woke up briefly in frustration. Fortunately enough I was tired enough to drift off back into the same dream (as it was probably about 3AM at this point so dead silent). I re-entered the dream at the reception of this so called club. My mate Harry jokingly asked what had taken me so long, and the receptionist ticked off my name on a clearly visible sheet as my mate must have told him. I asked Harry what the club was like and he signalled with a waggling thumb held sideways that it was so so, in conjunction with the receptionist opening the door behind him to see a visibly small waiting area with sofas, much like the waiting area to a doctors or dentist. I think the disappointment at this point had caused me once again to physically wake up from my dream, but again fortunately I was able to drift back into the same dream with no difficulty. Now in the small waiting room, the receptionist opened up the door which led into a large shop like area, with all the walls filled with every alcoholic drink that I know of, including a few that I don't recognise. Just when I thought it couldn't get any more crazy, as we were led into a second identical shop-like room (this time filled with a few typical party spirits like vodka and rum), the receptionist said that we were allowed whatever we wanted for free within reason. The room was also filled with male and female grooming products such as hairspray and hair gel for guys, and make-up and fake tan and stuff for girls. In mirrors that were about this room sure enough there were boys and girls grooming themselves before the entered the actual party room. I recognised a few of my friends from school in this room and was pleasantly surprised to see more of them arriving. As the receptionist led us into the third and final room, everything went dark (obviously because it was the actual club room) and a pleasant cosiness about the place overcame me. I said to my friend Harry "What were you on about mate? This place is ridiculous, free drinks, free grooming and a sweet club room" to which he just laughed. I decided I wanted to grab a Becks (my favourite kind of beer in real life) and started scouring the first shop like room for it. I also grabbed a bottle of smirnoff for Harry as he doesn't drink beer. At this point I become semi lucid as I realise that my dream is fading and I am slowly waking up. Luckily I started blinking less, and the dream became clearer again. So I venture back into the dark club room which surprisingly changed into a much larger concert hall and there were people everywhere my age (at least 1000) all conversing, although there didn't appear to be any music at this point and no one was particularly loud. I noticed more people from my school coming in through the club room entrance (from the second shop room). At this point I was slightly alarmed when a fairly attractive girl wondered past and said to me "I may as well be your girlfriend" to which I exclaimed in a jokey way "did you actually just say that?" as I found the fact I didn't know this girl and that she was asking me to be her boyfriend funny. I wanted to grab some more becks so I wondered back into the shop rooms and grabbed a multi-pack this time. From here onwards the only extra things I noticed is that I was wearing a lifeguard T-Shirt and shorts. Then the dream faded and I woke up.

      The second part was completely different. I was hiking with my school year in my group (similar to what I actually did a few months ago). The teachers told us that there we had to complete certain tasks. All of a sudden we had all leapt onto what looked like a rubber brick (something to do with swimming and videos I had been watching the day before). After a few in dream hours (which went by really quick) i realised I had been crushing this guy. As I got of him I apologised frantically and said something about my muscles being locked up so I couldn't get off him, and checked his heart rate to make sure he was still alive and well. He regained conciousness shortly afterwards. All of a sudden I realised that I had lost my group and was now walking with a different group instead. We came across two circular patches of mus that were a lighter brown than the surrounding mud. Unfortunately this turned out to be very deep mud, and one of my friends Nick fell in a patch and started trying to push up off the walls of this mud hole to keep himself from being swallowed. We had almost got him out but unfortunately one of my other friends James had fallen into the hole next to him. As we finally pulled Nick out, we became extremely concerned that my friend James was not trying to scramble out like Nick was, but had been completely swallowed under the surface. Frantically I told everyone to try and find a large stick to stick in the mud for him to grab hold of but it was no use. I myself fell in when trying to put a third stick in to see how deep it was, but fortunately Nick (from earlier) and his mate Jamie pulled me to safety. We realised that it was a lost cause and that James must have suffocated to death under there, to which I became a little emotional.

      I'm not sure If I woke up at this point but I all of a sudden found myself walking round a very very upper class looking university, with the events of James's death still in my mind. It made me realise that I should never take life or anyone in my life for granted, as a more realistic freak accident could happen to myself or any of my friends in real life. I went round the rest of the university part of the dream admiring the unrealistically beautiful and large architecture of the place, smiling at the various students that passed before slowly waking up.



      Quite a journey for one night. The feelings I felt from these dreams are indescribable, and I probably haven't done the first dream justice, but Dance music has been my life ever since I was a little boy so this was particularly special to me, along with the fact that I shared it with my best friend Harry. The second part really hit home to me. I procrastinate horribly, don't put in enough effort into anything I do and spend a rediculous amount of my life behind a computer screen wasting my time away on facebook. This dream told me to stop being stupid and actually start living life, as it could be over in a few years, months or even days, and to start appreciating my friends and family.
