Dreams are p cool, man.

Apparently I was Jewish in my dream. Anyways, let's get started! Non-Jewish part first.
I went to bed around 2:30AM and woke up abruptly at 8:40AM or so.

I was walking down my street really, really slowly. Like, there were a few seconds between each step, and then maybe I'd stumble forward a few in a row. Anyways, I look to my right and see some property at the end of a long, gravel driveway. They've got partial fences everywhere, like they left gaps in what would have been a complete square, and their yard was filled with mock-orange, a plant my mom recently bought. There was also tall grass everywhere and patches of weeds and buttercups. I had the idea they wanted me to come and clean their yard up but I had been avoiding it. I continued walking and a little boy passed by me on his bike, making a comment about how slow I was walking. He was incredibly pale and had very, very blond hair. He was wearing a brown jacket, black pants, a dark blue shirt and he looked to be about 12 or so. I didn't really respond or think much of it until he passed me by again a few minutes later, going the other way (the same way as me). I could hear him as he was riding up behind me, saying things like, "I can't believe you're walking so slow, I'm passing you again!" I stared at him as he biked past me and stopped to lock his bike up and go into some big temple (possibly the Buddhist temple on our street but it looked kind of different). I said, "Well, you're on a bike." and he laughed and replied, "But I passed you like 10 times. You're walking very slow." and he ran off towards the temple. I was suddenly very angry and yelled after him, "I was meditating!" but he couldn't hear me.

And now for the Jewish dream.

Me and my brother were laying on a couch together, our heads at opposite ends and legs beside each other. I realize now it was the house I lived in when I was in grade 5. Anyways, we're both on laptops and our mom let us know that we're doing a Jewish tradition where we all have to give my dad a kiss on the cheek before he goes to work. We weren't really looking forward to it. So I'm doing something on my laptop, I can't remember what, but I switched to something else when my dad walked in to the living room. I never actually gave him a kiss as the dream switched suddenly.

I was now watching a woman run around and do some kind of military training. She was dressed in a white muscle shirt, camouflaged pants and boots. I remember thinking, as she was running around and lifting/carrying things, how a woman's movements or positions often seem inherently sexual whereas a man in the same position just looks like he's working hard.

My tripod (IRL) fell over and made an awful noise at it slid against the wall, so I woke up in the middle of the dream. I was going to go back to sleep but it's already 10AM and I'm p awake. Oh well.

* This was lost in the crash, I'm just re-posting. *

I went to bed around 6AM and got up around 10AM so everything is very foggy.

I was standing by my desk, talking to ♥Mark on Skype. But like, I was literally talking. He was typing but could hear my voice despite not starting a call, and I think my voice was turning into text on the screen. So I'm standing there, looking at my laundry hamper to the right and thinking, "Oh my god, I have cockroaches."
I lifted up the hamper and there was a cockroach crawling around, like the bugs in Ocarina of Time. It was trying to eat my carpet and I felt so embarrassed that I had cockroaches in my room.

When I woke up, I realized no one ever makes penis jokes about cockroaches.

Zebrah gave me the urge to restart my dream journal and I just happened to have a long, amazing dream this morning. Here we go!

The setting looked very much like my high school, which was designed after a prison, as far as I know. So the cafeteria was in the center and there were four wings of classes extending from it, like wings of cells. There was a huge hole in the center of the second floor so you could see down into the cafeteria, or jump down if you felt like breaking your leg. In real life, there's bars and railing that go around the second floor but in my dream, that wasn't there, just a ring of large, painted cinder blocks at the edge. People in the dream were sitting on them and no one seemed worried about falling backwards and dropping 25ft.

Anyways, the beginning is a little foggy. I'm sure there's something there, but I mostly remember things really taking off at this point:

I was sitting on the cinder blocks with a girl in a large, white winter coat/trench coat. She looked a lot like me, now that I think about it. She also looked like this girl. Her face kind of varied between the two and I'm almost positive she was actually me and I was someone else hanging with her, but that comes in later.

So we're chatting it up, I'm telling her a story and she's listening pretty intently, but at some point, she starts looking around frantically, gets up and runs off. I glance at another friend nearby and we're both pretty confused, so we run off after her. When we catch up, it's clear she's having some kind of panic attack. We lead her back to where we were and she sits down again and I start firing questions. By now, I'm the other person so I'm going to refer to "my" actions as, "X [action]..." while her actions will be, "ShI/HIr/etc [action]...", okay (the I is to help you remember that she's actually me)? So I was actively playing X in the dream, but the girl was me.

Anyways, X says, "Are you okay? What happened? I was telling you a story and.. and you were doing that..." The gIrl had started looking around frantically again, but shI nodded as if listening, so X continued, "Are you freaking out because of all the people? What's going on?" There were more and more students/people gathering around on the cinder blocks and it seemed to make hIr panic attack worse, to the point that she was hyperventilating badly. X crouched down and got on their knees between the gIrl's legs. It was a pretty intimate moment but I don't recall it feeling sexual, more romantic in a platonic kind of way. X put their hands on hIr lap and said, "Hey. Look at me, just me. There's me and only me, just me. You're fine." ShI looked at X and held eye contact for a long time. Everyone in my/X's peripheral vision began turning red and the space behind the gIrl's head was turning black. We stared for a long time and eventually rested our foreheads together, still holding eye contact. ShI was obviously feeling much better as she embraced X, who was sort of rubbing/stroking hIr thighs but it was still mostly non-sexual, though the feeling of intimacy had certainly heightened. This went on for a very long time, just a loving embrace and a bit of friendly groping with nothing but the sound of breathing, I think X whispered something but I can't quite remember. This moment in the dream was saturated with very genuine happiness and I felt upset when it was over.

Now things get a little weird. The gIrl fell asleep against X but everyone assumed she died. It didn't seem to be a big deal though, like no one really cared. X cradled her and laid her down on the cinder blocks, which sort of reminded me of my dog, so for a few seconds, the gIrl was my dog. X gave her another hug but overall wasn't feeling very much remorse and no one else around seemed to notice what happened. A few minutes later, shI woke up/came back to life and ran towards this giant gash in the wall which led to a rocky tunnel, but X grabbed her, held her back and said, "You know you can't go in there!" The gIrl smiled and nodded and we/they sat on the cinder blocks again. X continued explaining, "There's.. sort of like.. another world in there. You know the robots from the movie iRobot? They're like that, very advanced, humanoid androids, but they were banished to that world. We can't go in there or we'll affect their way of living." The gIrl grinned and said something, X took note of how straight her teeth were. ShI ran off yet again and this time made it into the tunnel, so X and the friend from earlier flipped out and went after her.

I can finally get rid of the X/ShI/etc! Everything was back to normal now, the girl was a different person and I was just me again. So we came to the last corner of the tunnel and I was afraid to be the first one around it, so I turned and grabbed "orange" behind me (for a few seconds, we were colours. I was red, maybe, behind me was orange and behind them was blue) and pushed them to the front and they went right away. I followed quickly after because I was also afraid for them, that they would get hurt because of me not being the "leader".

We entered a room that was so white, you could hardly make out any dimension. There was a stream going through it and even that was such a light blue, it was nearly white. A blue MS paint styled salamander popped up and this was apparently the girl from earlier. It was missing a hand and wasn't animated and I couldn't even hear it, but I was under the impression it told us not to be in that world.

[some kind of transition]

Me, the girl, and a few other friends entered a grocery store very late at night. It was dimly lit and there were only a few people purchasing goods. I'm not sure what we were buying, I think it was pet food of some kind. Anyways, everyone in the store is kind of.. staring at us, like they know we're not from there and shouldn't be there. I heard some "wooing" behind me and turned around. This man in a suit carrying a leather bound book was walking funny and was slightly crouched, staring at me and yelling, "Woo! Woo! Wooo! Woooooo! Woo!" He kept staring at me and continued walking weird until he approached his desired aisle at which point he abruptly started walking in a very calm way with good posture. I whispered to the girl that this place was a little strange and we should probably leave soon. She nodded and we didn't even bother buying anything after seeing this one guy at the cash register. He stared at us with such disgust and anger, had vivid blond hair and looked kind of like a redneck from a beat up trailer park. Feeling pretty freaked out, we left.

It was only me and the girl now. We were walking down this alley outside the parking lot, which had a wooden fence on one side and a chain link fence on the other. I could barely make out a guy in the parking lot staring at us and was creeped out when he started making duck/bird noises. The chain link turned into a wooden fence and I somehow knew we'd be safe if he couldn't see us. So we're walking and she's way faster than me. I grabbed her sleeve and said, "I can't believe how fast you walk! I guess your strides are bigger than mine." We laughed and she said sorry as we came up to a corner in the alley. It led to a dead end/the back of a building. There was a street lamp in the corner and we both walked backwards to it and squished ourselves into it (the corner). I was slightly behind her but we were mostly beside each other, somehow able to totally relax without falling down. I could see a bed "growing" out of her side in my peripheral vision. I was staring ahead and wanted to put my head on her shoulder, but was nervous. I also wanted to put my arm around her, still too nervous. I said, "Are you comfortable?" After a few seconds of no response, I glanced up at her face and she was looking at me. She smiled and said, "Yeah." in a very warm tone.
