Okay, the first part of this -- being unprepared for a big test -- is really fairly common.

Even calling one of the Cosby kids for help is understandable -- they're the perfect American family, right?

As far as the rest of the dream goes...seek professional help. ;)
 
My dream last night happened like this...

I was in a fast food place, McDonalds from the menu, but it didn't look like one. I asked for a Quarter pounder with cheese meal, but the guy serving gave me a normal cheese burger so I complained and he stormed off.

Then this female member of staff came over and asked what was wrong and I told her the wrong food had been given to me, and could I get what I'd ordered - she said okay and brought me back a burger with loads of lettuce in, so I started picking it out then noticed onion rings and said again this wasn't what I'd asked for. She said I was "really expensive" and it wasn't worth them serving me although she didn't seem annoyed but still quite friendly.

Thats all I remember...but what does it mean? :confused:

I have the falling dream sometimes, but I never hit the ground, I kick out and stub my toe instead and wake up for a few seconds then slip into a different dream! :)

josh, that kind of freaked me out and i didn't even see it!

same here :eek:

Every night though I have 2-3 dreams that I will always remember and are always long and epic. I post a few of them here on my blog (dream category selected) . I dont really do much with them apart from tell my mates. I keep meaning to draw them every morning, or turn them into a game or script, maybe even a flash animation.

i always know im dreaming too, but I can never control my dreams. it happened once (i posted that one on my blog) but i could only control myself and the 'physics' in my dream, like Neo in the first Matrix i suppose. I could fly and turn my hand into a giant hammer but couldn't stop this guy from chasing me.

aw man i love dreams :D they're probably what keep me eccentric and happy in life. best of all they dont cost a thing and happen every night. sorta like sex i suppose but without the possible consequences!

ooh i've got time for 1 more! this is an old dream...

I was at a party in Uppermill (beautiful moorside village), at this new pub that was as tall as it was wide, with no solid floors. just wood so you could look down at other people. anyways the party was loud and happy and full of relatives. but i grew tired and walked out onto the main road. nobody was there. just this long road with large detached houses on both sides with epic fields behind them. as i was walking down the road i noticed a cows skull flying adjacent to me, trying to hide in the darkness. i look at it and it looks right at me and flies off behind the houses... then i see it on the road on the horizon and its flying right towards me at high speed! it hits me and i wake up with a killer stomach ache.

I also keep getting a recurring dream, well its not recurring in content but the theme. I keep imagining this hilltop town near me, Huddersfield, as being the top of the world. like its this massive town on the highest mountain at north pole right up there in the twilight. I cannot describe it for the life of me but hopefully other dream enthusiasts or Huddersfield visitors will know the feeling. one dream me and my brother ran away up there for a few hours, we had to catch a boat :confused: over a great lake. another time it was like a really busy port-town... even though its probably around 60 miles from the sea!

as you can tell i love my dreams. :) yea. :)

hehe if that one freaked you out, I dare not share the others.

I've had dreams that terrified me so bad I'd try ANYTHING to keep from falling asleep again.

I also suffer from sleep paralysis, which often ads to the experience (in a very negative way).

And half the time, I don't know what I dreamed and what was real.

This - while not really a dream - was THE MOST creepiest experience I've ever had while trying to sleep:

I wake up (for real), and I feel this weight over top of me, holding me down to the bed. It feels like something wrapped tightly around me, pulling down hard.

With my right hand, I start feeling around, and find this warm, smooth object...as I begin feeling it more and more, I begin to feel hair, and realize it is skin, and that what I am feeling is an arm. But it's not my arm :eek: ...at this point, my heart is pounding, I'm scared completely stiff, can't even think about moving.

Somehow I muster up the courage to carefully lift this arm off of me, and while doing so, I learn that it is MY arm. My left arm fell completely asleep, so it was totally unaware of the other arm touching it, so I couldn't feel it at all.

And I don't know if you've ever had a limb go completely numb, but when you touch it with the other one - since you cannot feel it being touched, only feel touching it - it DOES NOT feel like your arm/limb at ALL.

How I didn't have a heart attack and/or nervous stroke that night, I don't know lol.

It's really neat reading about people's dreams. I think dreams are so incredibly fascinating...sometimes they seem more real than what we typically think of as reality. Always makes me wonder....what if the dreams we have are what's real, and what we're living now is actually the made-up stuff.

Thoughts like this often catch my mind for hours at a time, and it usually ends up in me thinking the rest of the world is nothing more than my imagination. I'm still not sure if you (the rest of the world) are or not...maybe some day :)
 
this was my most strange dream... i think it'll give some competition.


i was in a shopping plaza waiting in line for pizza and the line was out the door, so i was looking around and there was a thruway overpass behind me i was staring at. there were old WWII-style planes landing and taking off from the interstate. they had sputtering propeller engines and were smoking purple smoke. so i decided to go ONTO the overpass and when i got there it was more of a bridge (i was at the top) and a massive flood was rushing UP the bridge at me from both sides. i climbed down into the parking lot of the plaza at which i was originally and i noticed the ground was more of a lenolium floor with small bumps randomly on it. there was an old man at a desk in the middle of the lot and i asked him about the bumps and he pointed out that they spelled the names of the greatest classical compsers, as if i shouldve known.




...no i do not smoke weed.

Hah i know what you mean. its so degrading when I post my dreams and people say ask if i do drugs. its bloody pathetic when you get accused of drugs when you show a slight example of creativity.

Had that happen a couple of times. I nearly killed myself reaching for the light with the dead arm. See it worked at the shoulder but not only was it numb there was no motor control. I smacked myself but hard in the face with it.

I must say that I have done that as well. Those type of events only usually start occurring when I have been working out a fair bit and as I have started recently doing weights again I can see it happening again. Should be fun!

I have some REALLY wierd dreams as far as my poor relationship with my controlling father. I'm usually chewing him out for something related to when we owned a business together and he was an a** to everyone - customers, employees, me, my brothers, his wife.


You owned orange county motorcycle :eek: .... Just kidding, somehow it reminded me of that idiotic hit serie :p
 
I think my most disturbing dream was of an erotic encounter with my best friend. :p

Last night's was about me trying to drive home, a route that I take all the time. It was in the dead of winter and a lot of slush was everywhere on the roads. Somehow I missed the right turn to the freeway onramp, but I calmly said "That's ok, I'll take the next left" (which in real life leads to a highway running parallel to the freeway). Except the entrance to the highway was completely blocked by a huge pile of snow, so I couldn't find it. Other drivers were getting angry at me. So I did a U-turn and went back to the freeway onramp. Which had cars streaming UP in the wrong direction. I fought my way against oncoming traffic to the bottom of the onramp only to be stopped by a cop who said I couldn't go this way, that I was going in the wrong direction. In fact, the entire freeway was all going in just one direction - into the city.

It was about this time I noticed that my car was a piece of crap with doors that opened backwards and weird stuff like that. I turned it around and joined everyone on the freeway - which was now completely moving in the OPPOSITE direction, and I was now walking. (Gotta hate it when dreams shift gears like that...) So here I am in a big mob of people all going out of the city. Apparently, the government is testing an emergency evacuation plan, so everyone is leaving.

That's about when I woke up. Not too weird, but .. it's still in memory, which is unusual for me. I don't usually remember dream details.
 
The best/worst (depends how you see it) dream I had was being chased by Ronald Mc Donald after Mc Donalds sacked him. He blamed me for it for some reason. He turned into that Pennywise the Killer clown from Stephen Kings IT and came to get me........I sooo wanted my moma when i woke up!

TOP THAT!

Last night I dreamed that there was this bathroom where there were 3 toilets arranged like a crescent moon (so that the people using them could see and talk to each other). I was using one of the toilets and the other two were being used by Hillary Duff and Lindsay Lohan. We were talking about the stock market...

I don't know if that has ever happened to any of you people, but to me that's pretty weird :eek: :D
 
The worst dream I ever had, and one that stuck with me since I was 7...

I was in my room, playing, and suddenly the Big Bird (yes, the yellow bird from Sesame Street) is there in my doorway. He's just standing there, and when I got scared, he gets mad and goes after me, then when I (pretended) to smile, he suddenly gets all nice and happy. I couldn't fake it anymore, and he goes after me and I tried to back away. I got on the top of my bed before he caught up, grabbed me, and bite my right arm off.

I woke up screaming, my mother ran in, thought I was being murdered or something.

Well, when I was camping in France about a little bit more than 15 years ago (Côte d'Azur), we were at a camping site with a really weird toilet arrangement. The toilets were not in a circle, but the cabins were only going as high as to the chest, with saloon like swing doors that couldn't be locked. The toilets in addition were on a kind of step, so you were sitting even 20 cms higher than usual. When you were sitting on the toilet your shoulders and your head were sticking out from the cabin. So everybody could watch each other while pressing hard and see the fierce or relaxed faces of the other guys doing their business...

That was not a dream, that actually was reality! :eek:

I might add that we left the place the next morning... ;)
