justice and more

Haven't had a nap like that for like it seemed forever. On to the dream of this afternoon which I just freshly woke up from.

It was a dream where I was directly involved in myself and the setting was in my own house. I think it'll make a little more sense if I told you that tomorrow is my cousin's wedding and wedding dinner. The dream had the whole entire extended family in the family's house like during Chinese New Year, watching TV, eating non-stop, and just talking. Except that it wasn't CNY, Justice League episodes were on non-stop, and we didn't eat non-stop but ate regularly for once. Right.

I just didn't get that JL part. Maybe it had something to do with me watching JL just a few hours before my nap. But, yes see I told you I've been watching too much JL. Soon, I'll have dreams involving myself rescuing some alien race alongside Supes, Batman and J'onn J'onnz. Don't ask.

Nothing much really happened in the house but it just seemed like hours that we were in that state without anything real happening. Like I couldn't get out of that situation at all. Then came the disgusting part. In my dream I think I ate or swallowed some food but didn't like it so I attempted to spit it out, albeit unsuccessfully, which resulted in my waking up on my bed with drool on my arm. Honestly, I don't drool. I sleep with my arm tucked close to my head. It was a one-off incident which I do not want to happen again. Ever.

I can't believe I'm sharing this embarrassing part with you but it's okay since not many people read my dream blog, right. Right?

trivial race

Haven't had a long and somewhat good dream in a while so last night's dream was a surprise of sorts.

I seriously think I've been watching too much Justice League, Static Shock and Simpsons. Let's get right on with the dream of last night.

It was an adventure type dream of some sort where I was in this Amazing Race type competition with other people as well. Except that I don't know or even recognise any of the other contestants who were there as well so I wasn't really bothered about that for some reason or other. We were first transported to this underwater place and then into this vast submarine-like vehicle. Except that it looked like a giant bubble to me, but whatever. The sub submerged into the ocean and six of us, including me, were brought to this circular chamber where we were then briefed on what we were supposed to do.

It was something like an obstable course where one by one, each of us would be released into the water, with oxygen tanks and all of course, and then we'd swim up to the surface as best or fast we could. We would be evaluated on how fast we could finish the course. Then, we'd swim all the way to the shore and race up to this building where we were to proceed with the next task. I don't remember how deep we were actually at but it was very dark in the water. Miraculously I survived and without breaking into a panic. Somehow I don't see this playing out in real life as accurately as my dream did.

The next task had us assembling some gadget of sort. Kind of like those KH woodwork or electronic things that we did several years back. Mine was kind of a mess as I couldn't find all the parts I needed and I got really frustrated and pissed that two people already passed me. Finally, it was done, and I still don't know or recall what I actually had to construct, and then it was back into the water where we had to swim again to this platform in the middle of the sea.

Then I opened my eyes to a bad stuffed nose and teary eyes. I really wanted to know where I stood and how long it took me to finish it. But yes, I'm surprised I could remember so much stuff from my dream as my memory isn't that good. This has got to be the longest dream recorded in this blog yet.
