Sleeping in class. VERY strange I think. Could be wrong.
(After I finished typing this I wasn't sure if this was the place I needed to put it in. I'll just move it to another category if it doesn't get the replies I'm looking for.)
Hello! I've just found this site today because I was wondering why I never remember dreams anymore. I can't remember the last one I could actually remember lol. But that is actually off-topic but I had the thought so I had to type it.
I have a question and I am VERY interested to know if this is abnormal or if someone has an explanation that is more than a personal theory. Of course I'll have no problem with your personal theory as long as you have some kind of facts to back it up slightly. lol.
When I go to my first hour and sometimes in my second I sleep generally the whole time especially while the the teacher is teaching. While I would sleep I would sometimes dream. Several times while in one of these dreams, the people in them were people also in my class. Most of the time I couldn't see them. Nothing is ever vivid but I have general knowledge of who's there and what's going on. In the one I best remember, Which occurred around 3 times that I can remember, the class was playing poker. I barely knew anybody in the class but one of the guys I knew best (which isn't saying much. I barely knew him lol) was the dealer. Here comes the weird part. While we are playing poker in this japanese looking casino, I can hear what people are saying in the actual classroom. This includes the teacher as well. It would affect my the thought process I had in the dreams and I think it even affected my actions and the actions of the character representations of my classmates. Also, irrelevantly, there were 3 escalators behind behind me. Two going down with one going up in between them. I couldn't get on them even know I wanted to in the first dreams but in the last one of this instance that I can remember I went up the middle one. I can't remember what was up there.
Several times I awoke and could nearly recite everything that was said in key points. I wouldn't remember small details too much. Once, the teacher was assigning parts to a play while I was having a dream about being in the bleachers of a large gymnasium. As he would assign someone a part I would turn my head and watch them walk up to what I think was a courtroom in the middle of the gym floor. (Like the stand and the judges podium and whatnot). I would even have an opinion on the decision of them to take that part. The one I remember is a guy named tyson, who is somewhat of a thug, got the part of a bad guy and I remember leaning over and telling an unvisiualized friend (I knew who he was and that he was there I just never saw him) "Who didn't see that comming". I also woke up with a nearly complete knowledge of who was doing what and I knew that I was assigned no part because I was sleeping. The teacher has stated that while I was sleeping lol.
I know it sounds a little absurd but you must believe me. For what reason would I make all this up out of nowhere to people I don't know?? lol
Also in a separate situation sleeping in class, there were times when I would dream that I was exactly where I really was: sleeping in class. In this dream, I would dream. One of the times I couldn't come out of the dream inside the dream but I knew I was dreaming in the inlaying dream. I started to freak out and came into state where I was in what seemed to be the static of a t.v. and I though I was lost forever. (I recently had a similar experience during an ecstacy trip but I was trapped in my own thoughts. Very strange as well lol.)
I came out of it in what looked like a cheesy "tunnel-through-dimensions" you would see on t.v.. I awoke from the inlaying dream to find myself in the initial dream feeling as though I had accomplished beating that dream and was now fully awake. Shortly after, I realized I was still dreaming and awoke.
Waking up in class from all that was surreal. Tripped me out pretty good lol.
Any explanations on these dreams? is it normal to have a VERY identical replication of your surroundings in dreams? Like even the position I'm in? Also, is it normal for voices in the real-world to be incorporated into a dream? And I don't mean your mom started singing guns-n-roses (Guitar and drums included) only to realize your were dreaming and THAT was your alarm going off. I mean they affect it and you absorb some of the information and the dream continues.
This kind of gives new definition to the term "half-asleep". lol.
Sorry this is huge. Hope you were bored enough not to skip any. Lol.
