I enrolled in the high-school there and i was doing well in my classes, then i went to the bathroom and 3 guys jumped me and beat me and then took me to the principals office and accused me of trying to assault them. the principal took out a gun and said "God i knew we shouldn't have let Fa**ots in my school" and then he shot me and I woke up.<br />\n<br />\nserious wtf dream.", "user": "rachel" }, { "id": "95179", "time": "1305975371", "html": "I dreamed of the little girl again.<br />\n<br />\nShe was crying, whimpering.

He didn't want me to know. <br />\nIn the next dream we were in the grocery store and he had bought my favourite something and I said jokingly "Ooh, those are my favourites. I love you". I said it jokingly because I didn't want him to know I really felt that way. He replied with "Whatever, I'd rather have tons of money."<br />\nIn the last dream we were at a party and he was carrying me on his back. He was running around the place with me on his back. Again, having my arms around him when he carried me felt very real. Then I said to him "Maybe you should put me down, so I don't break your back.", because I was afraid that I would break his back. But he got really offended, he took it as though I was dumping him, but I was hoping that I could continue to hug him. So he ran away and I ran to try and find him, but I couldn't find him to clear up this misunderstanding.", "user": "jaxxie" }, { "id": "104793", "time": "1307203511", "html": "I dreamed that I was moving into this beautiful three bedroom house. In a neighborhood full of all the people I've known in my life. In my dream I was unpacking things and trying to straighten up. Timothy asked me to go over to my grandmothers house. Me wanting to get things done, agreed. After all, she only lived five minutes away. As he was leaving, I reminded him to grab his coat and gloves and gave him a little kiss on his forehead.<br />\n Upon leaving, of course, left the door open. Normally I'd have fussed at him but today I didn't mind so much. The bright light from the sun poured into the room illuminating everything in a way that artificial light cant. The sounds of summer and children's laughter filtering in gave me a sense of happiness and peace. With Timothy at my grandmother's I was able to crack down on things. I was actually getting things done twice as fast until a friend of mine came over. I won't lie it irritated me a little. I had so much to do! I was trying to think of a way to get rid of her when she asked, "Where's Timothy?" To Which I replied, "His grandmothers." After a moment or two I started doubting myself and feeling like I was missing something. Maybe I had just imagined telling Timothy he could go to his grandmother's and he was asleep in his new room. I checked, but he wasn't there. I tried to go over the details in my mind but they were fuzzy and muddled. I cursed myself for not being sure about something so important. I tried if only for a moment to convince myself that Timothy was at my grandmothers. Then When I could stand it no longer, I grabbed my coat and gloves and stepped out into the summer dusk. I felt an urgency, panic ebbing at me, so I ran. I ran through the neighbor's yard, my coat slung over my shoulder. Past the small meadow and into the woods. It didn't take long to make it to the marker that declared I was in my Grandmother's part of the neighborhood. I dawned my coat and gloves and moved forward. I tried to run, but the snow piling up on the outer edge of my glasses blinded me, causing me to slip repeatedly on the ice. Finally, I gave in to the snow storm and set a slow, steady pace. I remember thinking to myself that I was dumb to let Timothy come out in this and hoping that it hadn't been as bad three hours ago. Finally, after a few minutes, I reached the evergreen crowded hill, where my Grandmother's cottage sat. Bundling my coat against me, preparing for the worst, I made my way up the hill. Grabbing onto to the thick branches for support when I felt like I was going to fall. Then it came into view, the warm, welcoming cottage, almost a beacon of relief. The soft yellow light pouring out from the front windows and the silhouettes of Timothy and Breezy dancing around in the living room. In that moment I was so happy. I felt blessed and loved and secure. My worries were over. As I approached the cottage Timothy opened the door and rushed out to me. Babbling about all the things he had done and the apple pie that he had helped my grandmother make. Stomping the compacted snow from my boot and shaking the flakes from my hair, I asked my Grandmother, "Is it always like this here?" <br />\n"Yes, but it's what I like." <br />\nTo which I replied,"Maybe, you should have chosen a safer neighborhood, like Autumn. Mom loves it there, and they're no snow storms in Autumn." <br />\n"Amber Honey, I told you, I like snow storms."", "user": "sunshinedust" }, { "id": "104797", "time": "1307203885", "html": "I have the most profoundy uninteresting dreams. Today, I dreamt I was on a field trip to New York with my Literature class, but everyone had left and I was trying to find my way home.

I was small again at this point, so I hugged his foot and he went back to normal. Then we fought a giant robot together.<br />\n<br />\nEarlier in the dream, I went with my brother to help one of his professors fill out paperwork at Wegman's, since he'd been recently married.<br />\n<br />\nAnd yet earlier, I was on a walk with (who I assume was) my boyfriend, and we got to this river that we wanted to cross. He said he could swim it, but I'm not a very strong swimmer, so he hacked together this sort of motorized raft made of two doors, a lawnmower motor, the rusted front end of a 30's pickup, and some plywood. The thing was, he built it on the second story of this house, so when we set off, we had a fifteen foot drop or so to the water. Halfway down I realized that since the raft was so buoyant, it'd be like just landing on pavement, so I woke up. (But then I went back to sleep and had those other dreams.)<br />\n<br />\nActually... now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure that <random boyfriend> was a stand-in for a friend that I would probably date, if he was into me. Same build, strong swimmer, likes building things.

And that voice from so many years ago started screaming loudly at me 'why did you do that' and my head started hurting. I didnt know what she was talking about, and she started yelling 'you tried to kill me! Why!?' and my whole body started stinging all over. For some reason I couldnt speak, no matter how hard I tried. She screamed 'why?' louder than ever and it made me cry in pain.<br />\nThen, when I woke up I swear on my life that I heard screams coming from my sisters room, so I leaped out of bed to see what was wrong and they were fast asleep.", "user": "malteeeeeaser" }, { "id": "111105", "time": "1307845411", "html": "The other night I had a dream where I was trying to attempt the Guiness World Record for<a href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-Gc1qDZrgY&playnext=1&list=PL4FE244754CB54B1D\">this</a>...<br />\n<br />\n<br />\nI'm still not sure why.<br />\n<br />\nLast night I had a dream about Doctor Who.

And so then it turns out the spirit bunny is good. So he hives me the magic penny. Woopdeedo!! So I go back to Caleb (my best friend) and say: hey guess what? The magic penny has been in your pants the whole time! (which I actually remember from a different dream. Tell you later.) and so we get married on top of a water fall delta and after the kiss he pushes me off and yells: sucka!!! So I use my magic fire hose and wrap it around his leg and he falls down the water fall. Then we resurface and he had somehow transformed into Darth Vader while I was Aphrodite from Greek mythology. It was so strange because when it was all over we were both hobbits living in northern mirkwood. Another weird thing was that he had been cheating on me and that was the reason I got glasses.
