  • dreams, dreams, dreams...

     

    It's nice to have very restrul sleep because my dreams are not scary and exhausting.  And one thing great about dreams, I can meet famous people, like I personally know them. That's so cool!

    First dream I remember: I was giving advice to Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes about having babies. It seemed like in my dream, they did not have Suri yet. I was telling them that they will have beautiful children and both of them looked very excited. The reason I had this dream was after I read an article on the net about Suri's behavior around paps and their crazy cameras with flashbulbs pointed directly on the poor girl's face. Especially at night, those flashbulbs can really be so annoying. I don't know who to blame-- Suri's parents or those greedy paps. How can someone subect this little child to this agony, I will never know!

    Another dream with a popular celeb: I was having a date with a young Patrick Dempsey. The one I remember on Lover Boy, Can't Buy Me Love and With Honors fame. That was a cute dream.  I don't know why I had that dream. Maybe because I recently watched a car racing game where the winner wins a Rolex watch. Patrick Dempsey and his team participated in the car race.

    Next dream was about a stolen umbrella. A former co-employee told me to check something in the trunk of her car. It was not clear what I was checking but I saw an umbrella and I grabbed it and placed it in my big purse. After a few days, I did not think of anything when another co-employee told me that she had lost an umbrella. It was a casual conversation and I just brushed off what this employee had told me. Another day, she asked me for something, I guess to use. I directed her to get it out of my bag. She came back sort of pissed because she said the umbrella she was looking for was in my purse. I asked how can she be so sure that it's her umbrella. She said that it was exactly the one she lost. She was harassing me about the umbrella that I finally gave up and told her she can have and take the umbrella from my purse, just for me to have peace. In my dream, I regretted that I allowed myself to be sucked in to a recycled controversies that were going on at work. This dream tells me that I should be very careful in getting involved with ongoing issues in my former job. A former co-employee has been calling me and updating me of the problems they are having at my former job. This former co-worker must only be venting of her work stress, and I am the best person she thought she could talk to about familiar circumstances at work. She said that it helps her a lot talking to me, like she has a free psychologist! 

    Last night, I had this funny dream about being aggravated by people I do not know and have not met in life.  My dream started in a room that resembled a class room. Some of the people in the room I've met from work and the rest were strangers. We started having a casual karaoke sing along; until everyone started gearing up to compete and to have a singing contest. I started to practice with some songs. The people that knew me started getting threatened and started to tease me that it was just for fun and I do not have to take it seriously. I told them I was not, and I knew the difference. The next scene in my dream, I was outside the patio of a restaurant. I was seated at a bar, but instead of eating, I had paperworks laid in front of me. Suddenly, a woman sat across me and started to edge her way and kept on pushing the papers I was working on to give her more space at the table. It somehow irritated me so I took my stuff and I switched table not too far from this strange woman. I started listening to a music tape for the song I was going to practice; but I was having problems with the songs on the tape. All of a sudden another woman I did not know pulled the tape out of the tape player to see if she can assist me. The more she pushed the tape player buttons, the more the songs got screwed up. I finally had enough and told her to just leave it alone as she was causing more problems for me.  The strange woman at the bar, now with her boyfriend at the bar, started egging me on just to aggravate me. I told her that I had enough of her, too, especially, after she took over the table I first occupied. She did not say anything but she  just grinned happily of the incident I mentioned. Since nothing was working in my favor, I started packing my stuff to leave and cleaned the table and tossed some things that accumulated at my table.  When I was throwing them in the trash, I accidentally tossed a bag containing things that I may still need. I tried to retrieve them and thought loud that this strange, annoying woman could be after them, too.  The next thing I noticed was she asked her boyfriend (could be her husband) to hand her a pentel mechanical pencil, like a drafting pencil. She headed towards me and started inflicting pain on me by stabbing me with the pencil. I told her to quit or I would call 911 and report her.  She stopped and seemed to get scared of my warning. At this point, I woke up from this dream.  The only explanation of this dream I can think of is before I go to sleep each night, I listen to some relaxing music to help me to sleep. I have lots of CD tapes that I have not played for a long time. I bought years ago some Italian and French music CDs, so I thought the French CD music may lull me to sleep. Unfortunately, the effect was not so pleasant as the music was not for relaxing. It was more for those summertime weather in the afternoons where your intention is not to relax but have a fun time dancing.  I was sort of pissed, so I got up and changed the CD for a much better listening pleasure on late quiet and ready for bed evenings.
