Dreams :)

Well, I was sitting with you and Rachel in the back set of the Pentimones van all the way there… so we talked a lot (but I can't remember what about). Later, you and I were at the vacation house on the deck and watching different people dodown below us and talking first about how they looked like ants, and then about what it would feel like to jump… I think we both got headaches from thinking about it. The night that Bethany was telling the story about the octopus you and I (and a few other girls) were picking up the room and laughing. :)

Wow… you remember your dreams very well. xD

Yup. Sometimes that's not fun… if you know what I mean.

Yup. Sometimes that's not fun... if you know what I mean.

I sorta do, but considering that I hardly ever remember anything in my dreams, not really. :P

You've been in one of my dreams before. :) I don't remember them specifically now, as they were a long while ago. But I know you were in a dream! =)

You were in at least one of my dreams before! Haven't I told you about one, at least?

You were in my dream about the bilingual fridge too. :-)

I had a dream where Dani M. came to our church and I spilled ball bearings all over the floor! the end!

Well, the other night I had the weirdest dream.

My 7 year old brother (Thomas), 4 year cousin, grandmother, and I were going to be on Oprah's TV show. ^which I've never watched, and really know very little about^ It was a game show, and we were supposed to answer questions about the history of dancing. My brother went first for answering the questions, which he got mostly wrong. I could see some of the questions that I was about to get and one was a fill in the blank: "From poem to camera_________". Since the rhythm was similar to "To market, to market, to buy a fat pig…", and pig rhymes with jig, I decided that the answer was "From poem to camera to buy a fat jig."

I know, I have weird dreams. :P

I had a very scary dream that had my heart beating… and apparently that's what saved everyone.
We were going shopping as a family (but for some reason I omonly remember seeing Peter, Rebeka, Jesse and Cianna). I had a sad feeling like I was never going home. It was strange. We passed a bunch of buildings (all of the store signs where titles of books I have read, which was cool - and creepy). We kept driving until dad said he didn't think we were in the right place. Then suddenly everything changed and we were in a fairly large store and dad was asking a clerk where we were and how to get to "White Lake Camp" (where we were going to meet the Pentimones and other people)… the guy told dad that this was the camp and feel free to shop around and when we were done he would give us the keys to (i can't remember what he called it but I think he ment cabin)… but dad insisted that we had only come for the night, so we would stay on our tents. Then they started talking about something else and I was trying to listen to what they were saying but I felt really tired, like I could fall asleep right there.

Mom bumped me and said, "Sarah, I wonld to shop for socks. I've been looking for some for a long time." as soon as we started to walk away from the counter where dad was I got a strange feeling that they were talking about something mom didn't want me to hear. But I was falling asleep anyway so I decided walking around would help.
I was keeping my eyes open for anyone familiar (because we were supposed to meet friends). Some really weird things happen well we were buying socks, but I won't tell about it because it's rather personal…. but anyway we ended up in line at the 'sock register counter' (apparently this building was like a mall) And for some reason everyone was packed tight together, but not because there wasn't enough space…. I think they did it on purpose. Mom acted like it was totally normal but I was hating every second of it because for one thing I couldn't move without touching people (and saying "Sorry" a zillion times), and I couldn't talk to Rebeka without people hearing me.
Suddenly Peter started acting really weird (mom was already acting strangely)… after a while I said, "Uh… Peter, maybe you'd better go shop with Dad." He growled at me, so I backed away from him. Then a guy from the crowd pushed his way through and grabbed Peter's arm and said, "Come on,Peter, let's see what besides socks we can find around here." I didn't think the guys figure looked like Seth's, but his face did, and the voice was Seth's… and the other boy who followed him I just knew was Joel.

As soon as they had left that part (the sock and shirt) of the building we heard gun shots. Someone grabbed my arm and… guess who! It was Carissa! And Bethany was right behind her. There where more gun shots, and both P. Girls looked really scared. I said, "Maybe they're just practicing." but somehow I knew that wasn't true. Everyone started running in wild directions. Suddenly, someone shoved something into my hand. I didn't even look, but I knew it was abi (something about cousins demands instinctive recognition). I thought it was a knife she gave me, but couldn't be sure. I kept thinking "I wish we were in a woods so we could hide behind trees"… some people had run around the corner to another part of the store, but I pulled Carissa and Rebeka under a table… then wished I hadn't but it was too late to move because the shots were getting closer.
The curtains parted and the clerk Dad had been talking to walked in with a gun. He shot a few times and I heared people scream. I looked over and saw Abigail peeking around the corner of the register counter. She looked over at me and tried to tell me something that I couldn't understand.
There was a table cloth over the table and it was long on both sides (not exactly sure how then I was able to see Abigail…. but I was) so when the guy looked around the room he couldn't see me and I couldn't see him. The guy with the gun started wrecking things (I heard things crashing) and I had a funny feeling he was looking for me.
Suddenly the guy triped and landed on his face, he turned his head and was looking right at me. then the gun was amaimed at me. I was frozen like stone. I would be dead soon. I relized my heart was beating really hard. Someone near me said, "As long as your heart is beating you can move." So I pulled my hand up and looked at the thing Abi had given me. It was a gun. I thought, "Oh God! I can't shoot a person! Why do I have to do this?"
But someone screamed, and my heart was beating so fast it was almost like my heart beats were moving me more then my muscles. I aimed at the guy (meanwhile looking down the barrel of his gun) and we fired at the same time. I knew I hit the guy.

I woke up cold.

Sorry the spelling and stuff is so bad. I blame half of it on my tablet, and the other half on my cold fingers. And other mistakes I take credit for.

Wow!!! Scary dream!!!! I had a dream last night that I actually remember. :P It was amazing and weird… :) :P I rarely remember my dreams but this was actually the second dream I've remembered this week. :P The other one was bad… :P

Do tell! xD

Having a Sinon moment there, eh? Will you have PTSD for the rest of you life every time you look at a gun?

Umm… :P I'll tell part of it.

The first one was amazing because I went to OH and all my BB friends were there! And I got to see everybody again and we played a huge game of pit (which was awesome!). And then Sam and I had a nice long conversation and he was as annoying as ever. :P

The other one… =\ Just that my jaw was completely out of place and I absolutely couldn't open my mouth and it hurt really really really bad. My MV friends were trying to get me to take pain medicine but I couldn't. Then Sam shrugged and said "Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger." :P Strangely, I later woke up and my jaw was hurting. :P

That'd be me, alright. Especially since you're a wimp and won't take pills. :P

LOL! Sorry about the second one. =( Was I in the first? hehe ;)

I couldn't have taken the pill if I wanted to do so! :P My jaw absolutely wouldn't open!!!!

Yeup! :)

I couldn't have taken the pill if I wanted to do so! :P My jaw absolutely wouldn't open!!!!

Well, you know what they say. "An injection a day keeps the pain away. And most vital functions."

Oh wait…

I couldn't have taken the pill if I wanted to do so! :P My jaw absolutely wouldn't open!!!!

Well, you know what they say. "An injection a day keeps the pain away. And most vital functions." Oh wait...

…… I'd rather put up with dreadful pain than take medicine. I was so mad at you in my dream though. :P

People most often get mad at those who make sense. :P

Yeah, you were making so much sense in my dream! I was sitting there in major pain and crying because it hurt so bad and wanting to scream because of the pain and all you do is "whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger." Yeah, that makes a lot pf sense. :P

Not like there was anything else I could do that didn't involve bringing you more pain. :P

Whatever. :P I just know I'll not ask you for help when I'm in pain. JK! :P

Having a Sinon moment there, eh? Will you have PTSD for the rest of you life every time you look at a gun?

I don't know. It was scary… :P
"AS LONG AS YOUR HEART IS BEATING YOU CAN MOVE!"

Okay…so I had this quite humorous dream the other night. xD
We (my family) were travelling to TX, and then Matthew Minica called us, and informed me about what we were going to do while there. Matthew, my brother Nathanael, myself, and some other people had to take care of a HUGE modern mansion. Some really wacky things happened that I don't quite remember, but at one point we were in the woods right near it, and the 3 of us had to run fasttttt to get back to the Mansion before dark…I almost think someone was chasing us or something, IDK. Then we ran all the way up several flights of curvy stairs singing at the top of our lungs. xD xP LOL XDDD

Lol! xP

Well, in the past few weeks I have dreamed that Nationals was in Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Orlando, and Maine! You can definitely tell what I've had on the brain! :D

wants it in KY xD That's the closest to me xDDD

I had a BB dream the other day… facepalm

Wants it in OH :P

And?????? xD

Haha! It was bad! :P I couldn't find any of my friends and I had only memorized like 2 verses perfectly and I just did an awful job. :P

Awwww! That's terrible! facepalm

I had one of the most shockingly horrible dreams. And in the dream it answered one of my biggest questions/fears in life. At the end I was crying so hard I thought I would die. I was so clueless all along….

I don't remember how it started exactly. Pretty normal I guess. Eating dinner with the family and everything was as it always has been. Then there was a knock on the door and Dad went to answer it. He went out on the pourch to talk to the person. When he came back I thought he looked really tired. He said, "Sarah, there is someone who wants to see you. So you will get a visit from a few government officials." I was a little excited about it, and a little nervous, and shocked, and not sure if I should be horrified…

The dream changed and I was staying in this huge hotel. I was in this huge room with so many things to look at. All of a sudden I felt that I needed to get out. I felt trapped. Ever since I had come people had been giving me strand looks (even my own family and friends). Even when I had gotten on Memverse Forums people seemed to be keeping something from me. When I had told you all about my visiting this government official they would say things like, "You mean it's happened already? I didn't know it would be so soon. We'll definitely be praying." I had asked a few times what was going on, but no one would ever reply to my question - so I gave up asking.

I had overhead that arangments had been made to make sure that my closest friends were living close by so they could be contacted easily. The Wal.'s, Alina B., and the S.'s, the other B.'s from Alaska…. were all living nearby for "support". It all seemed really suspicious and scary.

So, I was in this room and just got the feeling of being trapped. I started to head for the door when a picture of my family hanging on the wall cought my eye. I was surprised to see it. The strange thing about it is that I couldn't remember ever having that picture taken. I was looking at it when the door opened and a man walked in. He seemed really creepy and i backed away from him out of instinct.  The man's smiles looked more like smirks. He said, "You want to know why you don't remember that picture?" I said, "Yes. I would." He said, "It's because you are not the person who you think you are. And that is not your family. From today on your life will be upside down and you will never know who to trust. WELCOME, GOVERNMENT PROPERTY. The person to see you will be here soon" Then he walked out the door. I was shocked - but not too shocked. I didn't know what "government property" ment. 

The dream went on and I don't remember much of it except that I began to feel more and more suspicious. I thought and thought about my whole life and started to relized small details I had overlooked before. The fact that I had such a good memory was because at some point someone had erased my real memories; and the secret Isabelle wouldn't tell me so long ago  (something about me. The reason some people don't like me much. Why I have a hard time keeping friends. It would hurt me to know, because it's not something I can change - BTW, if any of you know something about me that matchs these criterias please let me know if you aren't bound to secrecy)… there were other things too - but those were the most horrifying to discover. 

I got a feeling that I absolutely must talk to someone! But who? I felt Seth was the only person who might be able to help me! If I could only make my way out of this big hotel and across the street to the house he was staying at! 

The the door opened again and the president walked in. I was terrified! What it ment to be "government property" suddenly hit me. I was their guinea pig. The one to have things tested on. Everything in my life was a test and nothing was real. 

The President  (Mr. Obama) looked me in the eyes and I guess he saw I was pretty worked up. He started talking to me really kindly and told me we were going to have a wonderful day and go to the park, and the zoo, etc. etc. and anything else I wanted to do or see. 

I said, "I need to talk to Seth. And I want to know who my real parents are." 

The President looked very surprised like he hadn't been informed that I knew the secret yet. Then he recovered himself and said, "Of course we can see your friends and family. They are living near by - but not yet. First we go to the park." That's when I started to get really upset. I stomped my foot and screamed, "No! I need to talk to Seth NOW! And you better tell me who my REAL family is!!!"

The President didn't look very happy after that. He said something like, "If you don't want to do what we tell you, you wont do anything!" Then he dragged me to the wall and chained me there. But the chains were so big I could slip them off my wrists… I waited till I knew he was gone and then I slipped them off. The door had been left open so I had this plan to sneak out and find Seth, and ask him to help me figure out the rest of the mystery. The biggest problem was that I was crying, and nothing draws more attention than a crying girl. :P

So, I went to the door and I was surprised  (but not too surprised) to find that creepy man lurking outside. He jumped when he saw me and said, "Oh! The president said you would come out by and by. Now, where do you think you're going? Get back in there." And he showed me back into the room. 

Then it dawned on me that he might be able to answer my questions himself - even if he was creepy. So, I started to try to start a conversation with him. He didn't answer many of my questions directly and he seemed to be laughing at my stupidity… it was so annoying that I gave up. Suddenly a very short lady came in and brought me lunch. She was very friendly but wouldn't tell me anything either - but she said, "Don't worry. You'll learn slowly. You know it's  best if you learn slowly so that it isn't so hard to take." I had a funny feeling she wanted to tell me comforting things like, "the President won't hurt you" and, "You are going to be just fine" but she was holding herself back.

The creepy guy was listening in to our whole conversation and would  add a few words now and then, like, "The best thing to do is just work with the system. Working against it will just be a wast of energy." 

Then suddenly Isabelle came in. She was very sympathetic and kind. I asked her, "This is that secret you couldn't tell me -  isn't it?" She said, "Yes." I said, "How did you find out?" She said, "Oh, most people know. It's  actually pretty obvious." 

After she left I started to think things over some more. So, everyone I had ever known - no matter how kind they had been to me had only been in my life as a tool to turn my life one way or another. They all knew that I was 'government property' but had kept the secret from me and fooled me in so many ways. That was the second greatest shock - learning that I was the only person who hadn't known this about myself. 

Like the creepy guy said I was starting to mistrust everyone and everything. But the one thing I felt sure of was that if I explained it to Seth he would  understand and help me.

(In case you are wondering why it was Seth I thought could help me most I will tell you my way of thinking - two reasons, Seth can drive, and he is the only guy I could talk to about this who could drive - besides my dad. (who according to the dream wasn't even my real dad. 0.o()

I was begging and pleading with the creepy guy to let me out so I could  see Seth, but he wouldn't let me. When I started to fight him to get out he slapped me and said, "Don't you realize that this 'Seth' was only  in your life as another test?! It's  too bad he gave so much away. He and so many others really cared about you - he never told you what you wanted to hear for your own good - but you are disgraceing everyones efforts!" 

I was so surprised I stopped fighting. The guy suddenly realized he had said more than he was supposed to and said, "I'm sorry. Please exuse me." And he shut the door behind him and locked it.

I fell on the ground and cried. Everything seemed so hopeless. No one would help - and no one who wanted to could help me.

Then I woke up. :P 

It sounds like we all need reality checks. Make a habit of asking yourself several times throughout the day, "Am I dreaming?" If you're prone to disturbing nightmares, pair these tests with a drink and make that a habit. That way, when you dream, you'll continue the habit. If you take a drink in your dream, your mouth won't get moist.

You'll usually know 100% if you're NOT dreaming; but if you are, and you realize it, should should suddenly have the awareness of your physical essense to snap back to it and open your eyelids.

Now dat's a weird dream… I wonder if it has anything to do with seeing Sam that day…? :p jk

Most of the time when I dream I don't think of things like that. And I know when I'm not dreaming. :) Why would I want to wake up from my slumber? :P

Is there anyone else on Mv who can decide what happens in their dreams?

Depends on how sleepy I am. XD

My brother can. I can't, but I do think that what you're thinking about before you go to sleep effects what you dream about (for example, I dream about BB a lot, and I also think about BB a lot :)).

It's kinda hard to prove but its thought that dreams are your brain sorting out (and deleting) thoughts and memories It has accumulated through the day.

Sometimes I can, sometimes I can't. :D

I had a dream that I went to Hannah's birthday party! It was at the zoo. XD

Me? I'd never have a birthday party at the zoo… lol

But if I had a big birthday party with more than just family I'd definitely invite you!

Yep! It was your party! :D And you had like 3 cakes all different kinds! lol

Wow. Did I decorate them all? Because I always decorate my birthday cake! Or were they store-bought? (If so, then I wouldn't have had any… maybe)

Actually, in my dream my sister made them for you. XD
