There was a question of the day in a server that had me talking about dreams, and a few I wanted to share and tried going through some of my journal archives to find it. But, turns out I only had one entry tagged in my Dreams tag. So I did a little search to find more of those dream entries and I noticed something I hadn't much realized before...

Between the public entries I have and a private dream journal that I remembered to document and the things I remember but didn't document.... I have a LOT of dreams with eye trauma. I would have thought maybe 2 in my lifetime if you had asked me before, but no it looks like a lot more than that and I have... never noticed this before. And it ranges from extremely horrific to like the kind of horror that's awful but the response is passive and cartoonish.

Looking up 'Dream Meanings' out of general personal amusement and it's really funny because so many are like... are afraid to suggest that anything is bad about it.

Like you have these things that are like 'loosing an eye in dreams is about wealth and prosperity and togetherness! but maybe spiritual conflict'

In this it is a bad omen
https://www.hindu-blog.com/2022/07/dreaming-of-eye-injury-meaning.html

This one has some interesting takes but then it kind goes into romantic relationship slanted things and please, not everything is about romance.
https://dreamyobsession.com/what-does-dreaming-of-eye-injury-mean/

anywho, ultimately it's all 'meaningless'. Like yes it has meaning in a 'what your brain decides to spit out at you might be related to latent personal issues' way but not in a spiritualistic omen sort of way.

At least not to me.

Does this have any correlation to the fact that I have a primary lead character with an extremely prominent, unavoidable eye-trauma injury that she refuses to even attempt to heal up in any way? I genuinely have no idea. It wasn't really a conscious decision, it was just one that felt like it should be there. I wasn't even consistent on the side it was on in the beginning because I got my left and right mixed up. I don't even have a problem with my own eyes, I don't even wear glasses. but man... IDK Weird that I didn't notice there was even a pattern until now.

My brain decided to throw a dream at me framed like a coming-of-age romcom about a young multiple girl going cross country to see her mother. As dreams often do it was vague on the details of where anything is (also it was turning autumn and full of wonderful landscapes of gold turned grass and trees and gradients from gold to red, thank you dream for such pretty landscapes.) Brain wanted to say 'something like France' but the location I think is inconsequential.

Over the course of trying to make it to her mother's place by foot, which she keeps somehow getting lost despite having a phone, she runs into two different boys that her two separate system members fall for individually. (One was like, punk goth the other was like indie prep.) She has two different styles of hair to signify which system member is fronting, which.. one was blonde and one was brunette (also she had intensely curly hair) like don't ask me how that would happen IRL maybe an Under Dye. There's of course all that weird dream filler like, going into people's houses for no reason, walking through like it's no big deal, text conversations that make no sense, and the whole problem with 'how do you loose where you're going with a smart phone' but I guess that could be explained by old rural roads and the fact that they can be mapped incorrectly.

But all of this getting turned around and avoiding the two boys she keeps running into for fear of not being the right one fronting at the time, and the fear of 'lying' to either of them leads up to this great scene where she's going back and forth out of a building through a revolving door trying to talk to the two of them separately while front switching and each one is seeing a different side of her face, signaling to the viewer who's talking because one half her hair is down and the other half of the hair is pulled back and I just kept thinking what a masterpiece of visual language for film that would be to pull off. It was very sweet tho because neither boy was accusatory they were just really concerned about her well being.

I woke up about that time so I never saw it to it's resolution but I thought about it a lot because I thought about how cute it would be. Personally I would opt for the ending being the girl system and the two boys start a little poly relationship. Sundance Films here I Come.

Trying to get myself in order IDK. Back to using twitter now basically the same way I use Tumblr - I visit, maybe scroll once or twice see what I see but don't do a full backlog read. Did the english test for Alchemic Dream, now it's just waiting time. Now I need to make myself draw or something.

Participated in a Gacha again for Second Life, this time the theme was 'Cute' and 'fluffy' or anything like that.

I made some eyes again, made them to be reminiscent of like the eye types almost all dolls had back in the 10's with a little extra. There are actually a very minimal amount of 'solid' cartoony type eyes out there it seems. Hopefully I'll have enough this time around to get Casper Vend. The Gacha starts the first of next month.

I'm both excited about and dreading the next month. February has always been just ugh for me. But end of the month means Gacha festival! And start of season 6 of Venture Brothers! But it also means my birthday which I've just come to dislike, and not because I'm getting older, but because I can't do anything. And I'm surrounded by people that don't seem to care about birthdays but they're a big deal to me so I just end up not wanting to acknowledge it at all :/

But a nice thing I guess was, Z got me a birthday gift early, kinda unintentionally. So when we switched to TMobile, the phone I got was a 30$ refurb, Windows Nokia Lumia 350. It's not a bad phone but it's not like top line performance either. So a few days ago, Z got me a Windows Lumia 550 for my birthday! That arrived a lot sooner than expected lol. It's not too much bigger than my current phone, which I like cus I have a hard time with big phones, but it's definitely newer. Since it's not a nokia, he also got a case for it. Problem is, I can't use it right now exactly, see I have a regular SIM card and it requires a micro SIM card. So, we gotta get to a tmobile store. Bleh, all errands are so tiring when you don't have a car. But I'm excited for new phone! Maybe I'll attach my original Microsoft account to that phone so I don't have to worry about the split accounts anymore.

Also I've been having really vivid dreams but this one kinda stuck with me in a way to remember so I'll just jot it down.

So this thing stuck out in my dream, there was this location where, there was a big ol place called The Pirate Cove, The Entrance was enormous and it was some sort of giant entertainment establishment and both a mall entrance and part of a mall or something. I was waiting for a bus when one of the staff walked out with an animatronic parrot on her arm, she had one of those headsets that hook around her ear and she was announcing to the kids and guests waiting to come inside. Apparently the parrot anamatronic was on the fritz and she explained to the kids that he was 'grumpy' and may not be able to play with the kids today, and something else, probably something else about other stuff to do but that wasn't anything I remember. After she was done she asked one of the other staff to get the parrot his 'diva shoes' which were these like swashbuckler loafers, like the kind you sort of classically expect a pirate to wear lol. Apparently the parrot sat in those when not being 'worn' by one of the staff.

I had.... a very odd dream last night... I mean I've never had a dream like this before.
Kinda bizarr and surreal and such

( And a bit lengthy, so putting under cut )
I've never had a dream wake me like that before.. ever. I've.. woken up at times, but not like that.. with my heart racing.
Man I've even had a Silent Hill themed dream that didn't do that to me, slept pretty soundly hehe ^^
It wasn't even really scary, just something was so intense and foboding about the whole thing, I don't know what to make of it, and yet I'm intruiged
It's like a movie was I watching was turned off.. I keep thinking to myself "I wonder what would have happened.."

of course.. you know... if anyone would like to lend their interpretation of what the dream could mean, I think that would be really interesting ^-^

And I found some giant tomatos... big pretty tomatos, and we were so happy we found tomatos we could eat, then later someone found these really crazy berries..  And there was a plane crash later on.. I saw it happen, and it landed reaaaally close to us o_o The dream was odd.. but so freakn cool
oh and another dream I was like.. a fugitive.. or.. something in like.. this HUGE facility... a spaceship? and I was... trying to save.. the people.. or like.. find information, I'm really not all to sure, but I was sneaking around a lot, and it was cool looking, and I would write more if I had written something after I woke up.. but yeah. awesome dreams


I'm SOOO glad work was slow today, I nearly finished this massive lineart I was working on (need it done by the 15th >_>).... you'll see when I'm done.. this is gonna be tough.

Oh and yeah, I had so much fun on friday.. I need people I can hang with more often x_x though, crazy thing, the three girls I was with, were girls I had previously met years ago at a bookmans! Rawk On. [livejournal.com profile] yami_griffin, [livejournal.com profile] orangeoctopus, and [livejournal.com profile] tasukis_gecko are all most awesome. I'm SO glad I don't work friday night, so I can go to the Pre-Anizona Anime Fest at Atomic Comics.. though I work during the time of [livejournal.com profile] orangeoctopus's b-day party... oh well.. -_-
Oh and the best part of Friday night... was being asked by one who had already downed 5 buds and was on his 5th smirnof, if I was drunk, because I was being my normal, crazy, dorky self.. it was great! (see [livejournal.com profile] zasz, I can act silly/drunk ALL ON MY OWN *snicker* ~_^)

PS..
DRAGONITE IS ORANGE!! A light orange, but albiet, an Orange.

Uh.. that title
has to do with a dream last night
I dream of these spiders... that would like.. crawl inside people and eat them from the inside...

I swear, this has got to be a combination between Spiderginas and those Camel Spiders whoo! Yeah. that was a WEIRD dream... ( remember holding one of them and crunching it's head, and it was all crunchy and whatnot heh)

I can't remember the last time I had such an odd dream o_O (I mean, like, two nights ago I had a dream about a tape worm.. I mean geeze, what's with all the internal parasites? o_o)

Well, there was a meeting for Chuck E Cheese today, whoo.. heh so exciting. But.. it was pretty funny. We were going to start doing a new, really interactive live show, and there was this little beach ball thing, and our general manager, Susan, had kinda hit the ball, and it hit one of our other managers, Jamal, right in the head! lol ^^ After which he proclaime that Susan shouldn't be playing with the ball anymore ^-^
After which, more on the show was explain, and then we started kinda bouncing around the ball, (cus they were showing us that's what we should do with it) and the ball came up to Susan, and she hit it, and it hit one of co-workers in the head! lol ^^ Yeah, that was pretty funny.
Needless to say, I honestly enjoy working there.
After the meeting, I ran errands.. well, more like, I just kinda looked around in stores... Got some paper at Staples... since I normally sketch on printer paper, I got myself a ream of paper for myself.. the highest weight I could find, so that, if I sketch something really nice, and I want to color it, it's at least on half-decent paper.
Then I looked at prices on vid cards and monitors, to sorta anticipate what I want, and how much I'd be willing to spent on them.

Then lastly wal-mart, for some things I've been needing to pick up *grumbles about her sibs using all her stridex pads*
And... I'm thinking about getting some of the proactive stuff, as ugh, my skin has just been so annoying these past few months... worse than normal, and I really hate it *grumble grumble*

Oh, and yes, [livejournal.com profile] napalm_isis has called me and claimed between moans of pain, that if she goes on a killing rampage, I will be the first to die o_O Just because I think cramps are clensing *shrug* I can't figure out WHY she wants to kill me because of that... heh
(and on a side note, I think it's hilarious that Jen and I seem to have our cycles at the same time o_O heh)

and grrr *trying to get some white out pens to work* evil evil evil evil

aww slag
I was going to pick up a surge pretector *snaps* oh well, it's' not crucial, it would just be nice, being is, now I have a TV, PS2, and GCN, plus my sister uses the plug in that area for her cell phone.. so yeah I kinda need a power cord, so that we don't have to keep playing musical power cords.

New pokemon ish good.. *nod nods* and I can't WAIT for more Megamon to air DANGIT!

Oh, and for some odd reason, when I play doom... the sound is really... odd.. (and I have win 98 se, so it's not like, an XP problem) I can't figure out why...

A couple nights ago... I had a really cool dream.
No I mean, it was pretty awesome!

Like... me or.. my 'character' of the dream (because sometimes in the dreams I'll also be looking in 3rd person, and 1st person.. it's odd, heh)
And like 'I' woke up and had no recolection of where I was really (I was in some sort of Chryogenic Sleep) Llike, I kinda knew my past, but there was a part missing that I didn't know about, and like it was kinda durring a time of war with... some other people heh.

Some details here and there I've somewhat forgotten... And there were animals... little animals that I had to save... yeah you know, that typical dream nonsense.

Anywho, like, it comes to reveal that me, and this other guy that was found around the same place I was, that we were some sort of mechanically enhanced humans or something. We will still human, but we were like.. modified yeah... heh. It was kinda revealed during this crutial part, and then... I woke up after that...

But the dream felt so cool!! ^^ heh Sounds like an idea for a Sci Fi movie or something ^-^

This ranks right up there with the dream I had where I blasted Rampage with Depth Charge's gun! ^^ *does a little happy dance* (yeah, see, I was kinda watching a fight between Depth Carge and Rampage, and Depth Charge's gun got knocked my way, so I picked it up, and blasted Rampage lol ^^

Too bad I don't have reocurring or continueing dreams.. it would be cool to continue this dream.. like my one personal movie!

Quotes of the day (err... week.. err... whatever ^^() )
“Go get your own damn good cookie!” -- My sister, when I tried to get a bite of her chocolate chip cookie. lol ^^

“Did you know you have a male counter part in your head? His name is Aubro! You see, right now you are very in touch with your feminine side, but some times, you will turn into your suave and debonair side, Aubro!” – Jen
(LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

heh, ^-^ Yes, funny things. I’d have other funny things if I remembered to write them down, but I’m lazy, lol ^^

Oh oh oh!! *jumps up and down* I saw a pair of ducks at school!!! Lol ^^ yeah, there they were, in on of the puddles at the school, just minding their own business. They must have been a mating pair. But there were DUCKS!! At my school!! DUCKS!!! (yes, this discovery has made me very giddy.. lol ^^)
...
DUCKS!!!!

Another rather uneventful weekend *nods* yeah, I don’t really get to do much over the weekend, usually I go to a Yu-Gi-Oh tournament on Saturdays with my sister and brother. But, Sister Young (okies, for though who may not know, for Mormons, instead of using mister or misses, it’s Brother and Sister. So yeah, Sister Young, Mrs. Young.. whatever ^^()) was busy, that and the fact that her husband is in the national guard and has been called to leave soon. So yeah, no Yu-Gi-Oh this week, maybe next. And for those that are wondering why she would drive my sis, my brother, and me to a Yu-Gi-Oh tournament, is cus not only does her son like to play, (as well as her daughter sometimes) but she plays as well ^^ She’s really good too. Heh ^^
She’s cool, we’ve all been friends of each other’s families for not too long after we moved here from Mesa. So, yeah, hope all goes well with Brother Young. *nods*

I made chocolate chip cookies Sunday. My sis had been watching the Food Channel, and they had this whole thing on the best places to get pies and such. So, here I am, watching this stuff on sweets and stuff, and suddenly, I REALLY want some sort of pastry or something sweet, so I just decided to make some chocolate chip cookies. Darn that food network!! My sis watches it all the time... She also likes to watch infomercials ... o_O I asked her why she subjects herself to such torture by watching stuff about food. She’s says it’s a good kind of torture, lol ^^

Hmm.. I had something on my mind I wanted to talk about.. but I can’t think of it at the moment... ^^() Whoo... me and my mind.. ‘Tis an odd place, I suggest you don’t venture up there without special gear. You’re liable to get either:
A) Lost
B) Hurt
C) Eaten
D) Beaten With Popsicles
E) Confused
F) Mentally Corrupted

I’m sure there’s more... I’ll update this list... Maybe I should have gone by numbers.... ^^()

Still trying to get my drive to be the mater drive, but the computer is being fickle and stupid. I’ll get it to work. I MUST get it to work!! Need more RAM... That’d be nice, but I need money for that, thus, I need a job... ugh -_- I need to check around the stores around the school again, see if they have any applications in. I also need to get my applications in at Costco and Harkins, and just wait to see what happens. Right now, I just want a job I can at least be around people, or something. Heh, I’m really hopping I can swing a job a Circuit City. It’s a short walk from the school, and I could actually be of ‘help’ there. lol ^^ I mean, sheesh, I’ve helped out people at Wal-Mart or whatever with electronic related stuff before! Although, I personally prefer Best Buy ^-^ But, getting a job at Costco would mean I’d get a lot of benefits and such. Hmm, well, better get all the aps in now, or else nothings going to happen!

Oh, heh, watched Spy Kids 2. My mom rented it *shrug* I Like R.A.L.P.H.! It’s this cute little bug-like robot thing, it’s SOOO CUTE!! ^-^ It’s my sis and I’s fave character from the movie, lol ^^ You know, I think I’ve watched more ‘kid’ movies than most other ppl my age. (I think it’s due to the babysitting I’ve done) o_O I mean, I’ve seen all the Land Before Time movies, except for the newest one. Of course all the main Disney Movies, so far, even some of the sequels... T_T Some of them are EVIL!! The only Disney sequels that were any good were Rescuers Down Under, Toy Story 2, Lion King 2... and that’s about it. WOO I’ma freak!! lol ^^
And since we’re on the subject of ‘kids’ things, I caught a glimpse of the newest Power Ranges thing, Ninja Storm, just for Novelty’s sake. Quite different first off, three rangers instead of 5, 2 guys and 1 girl, and the girl was green. FINALLY! No more cliché pink ranger!! And uh... the ‘bad guys’.. were REALLY odd... o_O Poor yellow ranger... The yellows are always the first to die... Like Star Trek’s red shirts ^^ Yes, in the original Japanese version, people DIED!!!!!!!
And another odd thing. You know how each series, they have a ‘mentor’ type person, the person that teaches them, or is the source of their power? (the First one was Zordon, then there was this chick that took his place, and then they didn’t really have any and, yadda yadda...) Well.... they had this... uh... little mentor... It was a guinea pig... o_O A guinea pig in a blue robe. I mean, they’ve done some odd stuff, but this is just WEIRD!! ... A little guinea pig in a blue rode.... MASTER SPLINTER WANNA BE!!!
Oh, and yes, I must ask the age-old question... HOW IN THE HECK IS SPANDEX PROTECTIVE?!?!?!?!?!?! I mean, at least in the first movie they made it look like armor. Which reminds me, Mara bought the first Power Rangers movie... heh heh heh... And yes, WE’RE GOING TO WATCH IT!!!! MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! She’s looked up all sorts of stuff on the original Power Rangers, and knows more about it than the normal person... Like the green ranger was Reta’s son, and he was supposed to be KILLED. And yeah, there really was NO white ranger. Oh yeah, and Reta made a pact with Satan, or something like that. And yeah, whole bunches more stuffies that I can’t remember at the moment.

Had another interesting dream last night... heh I had stood up for some guy, and made this one big guy look like an idiot in front of a bunch of people, and then the guy decided to go after me and hunt me down o_O Yeah, so me and a group of friends (no on inparticular, they were just there) Decided to get him before he could get to me... There were spray painted bunny suits involved... o_O (used to hid our identity)
But yeah, it was really suspensful, and kinda cool in a weird sorta way. It was like, a movie almost. heh ^^

Oh, yeah, and.. How come is it, every weekend, it's like, EVERYTING FALLS GOES NUTS?! ... Well, maybe not as much as it used too -_- *sigh* Parrot, when you get upset, CALL ME UP!! Talk with happy ppl. It make you happy too *nods* Oh, yeah, and did you ever get my letter?? ^^()

Heh, going over dreams and all in my psychology class. I've realized I've never had a scary dream really. I mean, I have some dark dreams, but I always think they're cool ^^ So, yeah, I talk about dreams...

One of my favorite and most vivid dreams happened not too long ago, so I still remember it very well.
It first starts out where I am in a large mansion of some sort. There’s a lot of zubats around, which are a type of pokémon that look a lot like bats, and there was also a ghastly, (yet another pokémon) which I think could have been the family’s pet.
Anyway, I was going around the mansion, and I remember hearing very little sound, not because I couldn’t hear, but because it was just silent. The mood was very dark, and almost tense, very dark, and dense. I also remember colors, dark off white, hunter green, and burgundy mostly. There weren’t a lot of lights, so it wasn’t very light, and it was nighttime outside. And it felt very large and open. There weren’t very many decorations, so it seemed empty, but not really.
As I walked around the house, I ran into what appeared to be members of the family that lived in the house, a girl about 10, a boy about 8, and then the mother. They all looked very similar, black hair, very flat, and for the girls, it was long and completely straight, almost like the stereotypical gothic look. They all appeared to be looking for their father, whom of which I never did see. Though, it felt as though he was trying to find his family as well, though with more ill intent... To kill, or so it seemed
I never saw any members of the family together at one time, and every now and then, one would call for help. I remember being chased by the father of the family, though, as I mentioned, I never saw him, I only saw his shadows on the walls or floors.
Just before I felt as though the father was about to catch up to me, I went into another dream.

Unlike the other dream that was in first person, this part started out in third person, where I saw myself sitting at a computer in a library, not any library familiar though. There was wood panel flooring, and a wood desk, and I was sitting next to a window with white blinds. It was very sunny looking, though the blinds were pulled shut, and everywhere was dominated by the tones of brown and yellow, and very bright.
After I had seem myself at the desk, I was researching something on the computer, though I’m not sure what. But, I ended up coming across an article about some kids that had been abducted. It was found that these kids had been used in experiments on their eyes, and there were dozens of pictures with kid’s eyes and eyelids grotesquely deformed and distorted. I remember some of the pictures quite vividly.
After that, I went from searching what had happened to those kids, to something about a fire, that had left a girl and her dog badly burned and deformed. Around that time, I noticed a dog walk over and jump onto the bench behind me. I heard some voices in the background mentioning that it was the dog from the fire.
I looked at the dog. It had three legs, one normal hind leg, a boot for another hind leg, and a leg that was just kinda pointed. Though, this wasn’t the most bizarre part. He also looked as though he was shedding his skin, with his head protruding out of the mouth of the ‘old skin’. Then inside his real mouth, he had four paws in his mouth that worked like all the limbs around an insect’s mouth.
And it was around this time that the dream ended.

Personally, I’m not all too sure what it all means, because it’s just so jumbled and doesn’t really ‘match’. Though I’ll say that out of all types of injuries, eye injuries seem to get to me the most, but I still can’t seem to match anything up with the rest of the dream. o_O

Oh, yeah, and I jot down something. You know, I think I write best when I just jot down the first thing that comes to my head..

Whatever it is
I don’t know why
Whatever it is
Why do I try?
To keep on going
No matter what
To make it matter
Does it mean so much?

A twist around
Hear the sound
Why do I try?
I don’t know why

There’s something there
I just can’t see
It seems to stare
It’s haunting me
Whatever it is
Do I really care?
Whatever it is
It is really there?

A twist around
Hear the sound
Why do I try?
I don’t know why

Back and forth
Live again
Back and forth
Why pretend?
Is it real?
Is it there?
I seem to feel it
Everywhere

Whatever it is
I don’t know why
Whatever it is
Why do I try?

Yeah, that's all for now, cus I lazy.
