seinfeld55's Dream Journal

Hello, I just wanted to start a thread to post some of my more bizarre and significant dreams, and my lucid dreams if I ever get out of my stupid dry spell. Evil Carl Sagan I had this dream a couple weeks ago, when I was sort of freaked out and depressed because I’m a science major and I’m obsessed with science, but I was kind of wondering if I was going down the right path because I had a bad day in the chemistry lab. Science has always been so joyful and carefree to me, and up until now I’ve never experienced it on such a competitive level. Everything is fine grade wise I think, but I still love studying it by myself though, no matter what anyone says. Anyway, I’m ranting…sorry. Here’s the dream I think all this caused. It was one of the most vivid dreams I’ve had in a long time. It was also one of the first nightmares I’ve had in a while. I dreamed I was at some kind of high school gathering, which is strange seeing I’ve been out of high school a while, and Carl Sagan was there giving a speech. When he was finished, he went through the crowd talking to people. It didn’t occur to me in the dream, but this guy wasn’t completely Carl Sagan. Sure, he looked like Carl Sagan, but this man was like a really horrible, frightening, mean looking version of Carl Sagan, very much unlike the kind, smiling version of Carl Sagan from real life. At one point, he approached me, and I thought he was coming to talk to me, but as he got very close to me he began to look very annoyed. I realized he wasn’t coming to me, but that I was just in his way. I moved, and this man who I’m guessing was a school administrator comes up to me and yells at me for getting in Carl’s way. He had a really strange nose, it was reddish with these strange cuts all over it. Anyway, he continues to yell and yell at me for getting in Carl Sagan’s way. I was hurt that Carl hadn’t really come to talk to me, but I was even more hurt and highly embarrassed that everyone was mad at me. I felt like an idiot and a failure. I woke up breathing heavily and on the verge of tears.

Man that sucks! Most of my nightmares are not terrifying. They are like, I am back with my ex-wife and we are happy. Then, I wake up depressed. Some type of negative emotion, but not usually fear.
