Day 23: Dreams.

I'm technically on Spring break, but I'm not really on break until Monday. Stupid CHA.

I have numerous dreams every night and all of them are extremely vivid, weird, and strange. I am actually in my dreams...I don't see my body or anything, so I see and feel through my own eyes. I'm going to talk about some right now, so be prepared to enter the mind of KMD.

I sometimes have reoccurring dreams concerning a tidal wave that is about to crash my house. My family members (cousins, uncles, aunts included) are all in my house and I distinctly remember myself looking out the kitchen window and seeing the tidal wave building up and approaching the house. However, I don't think I have ever reached the point where the tidal wave crashed my house. Sometimes smaller waves would come and reach the length of the windows, but that was as far it would get. I would say, I had this dream about 4 times.

I also dream about animals..especially snakes. I also had one or two dreams about rats all around the floor too.

For years now, I have been dreaming about driving on weird funky freeways. In one dream, I decided to drive home from LA and did not have any written directions, but knew it by heart. However, I did not know if I was entering the right freeway. There would be multiple freeways intertwind and one was actually so thin that one little curve to the side then you would be gone. It was scary. I don't like having the freeway dreams, maybe because I have a fear of getting lost.

Last night I clearly remember two dreams:
1. I was walking home from Bap Rico's house and there were a couple of people walking the down the street also. Two ladies were in front of me and two guys were in back of me; I had no idea who they were. I had a feeling that I was in danger so I power walked in front of the two ladies. All of a sudden, one of the guys grabbed a lady and took her to a house in the corner. The other lady was screaming urging the men to let her go. I was debating to run for it, hoping that they will not catch up to me. Family, including my cousins from the PI were at my house and I told them what happened. We locked all the doors, but somehow the two guys appeared and made their way inside. So casually, they greeted everyone and told my cousins to go with them. They willingly followed them and I was like WTH!
2. Auntie Anele, Jamie, and an infant (I don't think it was James) were at my house and I was playing with the baby. In my dream, I thought to myself, be very careful, don't suffocate the baby. I was being so gentle as I carried the baby, but when I picked the baby up from my lap, I grabbed his or her neck with my two hands!!! That's how I held the baby! BY THE NECK!!! The baby couldn't breathe and was turning pale. I ran to Auntie Anele and she was calm and said it's ok, let's see if your mom can do something. My mom told me to call 911 and then she performed CPR. It was so weird because they both were so calm and there I was panicking. I called 911 and told the operator that a baby was suffocating and she was so shocked. She asked me how that happened and I hesitated to answer. Right then, the baby was concious and was back to normal.

Pretty effin' weird right? Golly, so nerve wracking! The sucky thing is that I dream everyday, I have more than three dreams a night, and they can get so weird and intense. Maybe I should see a dream therapist yeah?

I'm not going to sleep tonight. I have a paper to write due Monday and since I don't have school tomorrow, why not stay up and work on it yeah? (This is the health assessment paper that I must kick butt in). Have good dreams everyone, sleep well. It's FRIDAY! :)
