I fill such an interesting role in your dreams.

Pffffffft that was me that poked him and ran away.

Ok...so...yeah...dreams...

Erm, anyways, I tried something pretty cool yesterday morning.

I have a pretty awful tendency to hit the snooze button every 5 minutes for about the next 2 hours after my alarm goes off. But I've noticed, that after about the 5th or so time of hitting the snooze button, I start going into REM really quickly.

With this ability to sink into dreams quickly and time them, I decided to do a little time dilation experiment. I wanted to see how long my dreams were compared to waking time.

The initial alarm went off at 9:30AM, and I did a half hour snooze. After hitting the snooze button 8 times (5 minutes of sleep between alarms), I had an interesting dream.

In the dream my sister and I went to a club/bookstore. The first floor was a bookstore and the second floor was a club. My sister got the idea that she was going to become a celebrity. I walked around the bookstore and thought that I recognized someone. I thought that I had just seen my karate instructor! He looked way too old, but when someone said his name I thought that perhaps that really was him.

I sneaked upstairs to avoid recognition. The second floor had visual effects like a video game. There were rooms where people were playing on the computers. I took a photo with someone.

The dream seemed really long (longer than I wrote it out to be), and I was pretty impressed that it happened in less than 5 minutes.
