I am with Ray at a mall. We go into a nice restaurant and as we walk we pass by my old art teacher Ms. Greene. She's sitting at a table with a glass of wine. "If you want some wine it's free over there at the bar," she says pointing toward it. Ray starts heading in that direction, but he goes a weird alternate route that doesn't make any sense and took much longer than needed. ....I start exploring on my own and find an opening to a secret unused part of the mall. It looks like several kid rides were constructed in this area. It kind of looks like a carnival in the mall- but abandoned... ...Ray and I are back walking through the mall again.... I start to question my reality. Am I dreaming? Everything looks so real though! I try to do a reality check. I look at a Starbucks coffee shop and study the logo. I look away and look back. Everything is still the same and perfect. So much for looking at text! I look at shoppers and study their faces trying to find flaws. They all look normal and vivid. The racks of clothes in the shops look perfect. I even widen my eyes in an attempt to wake up. Nothing happens. Everything is so realistic - more real than I've ever experienced in a dream before and I've had some pretty good ones! Unsure of myself I walk up to a man who looked to be in his 50s. He was slightly overweight with long graying hair. "What do you represent?" He gives me a strange look, "Uh...What? What a weird question!" I start doubting myself. This might not be a dream after all...I turn around and see Ray. "Ray, I know this is going to sound crazy but I can't tell if I am dreaming or if this is real life!" He rolls his eyes,"You're losing it Nick. Of COURSE this is real! I'm real! You're not sleeping!" "But that's what a Dream Character would say!!!" I yell, clearly frustrated. I feel like I am going mad. Everything then fades away - confirming that I was in fact dreaming. I have a false awakening. I am on the floor in a sleeping bag and I hear my sister Ashley getting up. The clock reads 7:00. Apparently I am at her place and we are getting up early to go to the beach. I look around for my dream journal.... Then I wake up for real.
Dream I was watching TNA and Bully Ray was backstage weighing himself or something. As he left the room he beat up 2 smaller guys and went onto the stage. He interrupted some guys who were talking in the ring and started speaking in a Canadian accent. I was thinking "Since when was Bully Ray Canadian" and the commentator, Taz said the same thing. I turned to my Dad was like "See." It was such an obivious dream sign that I feel stupid for not realising it. Fragment from Yesterday I was at school with this girl who used to go to my primary school. I feel like I've been there before.
