Do you remember your dreams?

<p>If so, what are the strangest ones you’ve had?</p>

<p>When I was eight or so I dreamt I had to go through a lot of trouble to find this room full of chocolate (climb along narrow ledges, squeeze through tight crevices, go through pipes, etc.). When I reached the room, it really was full of chocolate – chocolate milk, chocolate bars, chocolate truffles – almost heavenly. Then I realized I could’ve just walked through the door at the end of the room to get inside, rather than sneaking in through the roof.</p>

<p>I’ve also dreamt about getting into the Physics Olympiad Training Camp. Except the problems were like real-life landscapes – as in if you were solving a problem about two cars colliding, you’d really be on top of one of those cars, hurtling towards the other one at a velocity of 10 m/s. Oddly enough, we’d solve these problems by jumping from one side of the landscape to the other. I kept jumping too quickly onto the wrong sides, and had to be caught several times to avoid falling off 500-foot cliffs.</p>

<p>And of course I’ve dreamt about NetHack at least five times. Including last night. :cool:</p>

<p>I had a dream that I was playing a gameboy while being chased by a dinosaur. >.<</p>

3

<p>The clothes hangers in the mall where the ones shopping and all humans were locked into a room and forced to watch…BUT all the humans but me and one other person had been turned into zombies.</p>

<p>This is a recurring dream that I’ve had for my whole life. Even stranger is that I can make this dream come back at will. </p>

<p>Imagine something inconspicuous, like a pencil or a telephone. Now, focus on just that one object. You’ve never really examined it before, so you don’t know how it appeals to your senses. Suddenly, that object becomes supermassive, of extreme size and density, and all concept of distance is lost. Even though the thing is one foot in front of you, it might as well be 1000 miles away. You feel as though you would need to walk forever to reach it.</p>

<p>Now, still focusing on that supermassive object [the telephone now weighs as much as the Queen Mary 2], you zoom out, very, very far. Now, the telephone becomes infintesimaly small. In the dream, this object is just a point of color, and everything else is black.</p>

<p>You know it is extremely massive, but it seems so harmless from a distance. The feeling you get is now is that if you just took one step forward, the object might become the huge, massive object that you know it is. </p>

<p>About now is when you get really freaked out. How can something be infinitely small and infinitely large at the same time? Where is it? Is the telephone in front of me, or is it a lightyear away? </p>

<p>By the way, there are a bunch of numbers everywhere, too. :smiley: Really, really, really big numbers that marquee across the scene, seemingly never-ending. </p>

<p>After this scene ends and the telephone [or pencil, or whatever it is] disappears, the next part of my dream starts. Again, everything is black, except for a brilliant-white, rapidly spinning pyramid, that’s in the center of your vision. It makes a soft whirring noise. You are paralyzed by it’s beauty. </p>

<p>After this, one of two things happens. Either 1) The dream ends and I wake up, or 2) The next part of the dream ensues: </p>

<p>Apparently, I am trapped within this pyramid. I am a very important figure in Egypt, perhaps a king or a prince. Within this pyramid, there are hundreds of long, parallel corridors with exits at either end, leading out of the pyramid. There is writing on the walls, spanning the whole corridor. I am stuck within one such corridor. Unforuntately for me [or whoever the dude is], the doors at both ends are locked. I am stuck inside forever. He tries to open the doors and knock them down, but to no avail. It’s solid rock. At this point, I usually realize that it’s a dream and I try to wake up, but I can’t. It seems that me knocking on the door symbolizes me trying to wake up in real life. It usually takes a while before I wake up. </p>

<p>Odd, isn’t it? I think I’m crazy. :D</p>

<p>I do sometimes remember my dreams. A few days ago I dreamed I had my first kiss, went on a field trip to Utah, during which I saw a rainbow juxtaposed with beautiful sunset colors and prestine snow-capped mountain scenery, but was royally p*ssed due to not being able to take a picture, because the bus then entered a dark forest.</p>

<p>It was all in one night but I’m pretty sure the Kiss and the Trip were in different dreams.</p>

<p>I sometimes remember my dreams. Last night, I had a nightmare. I dreamt that a professor assigned a 10 page term paper, an oral report, and a Powerpoint with speaker’s notes, all due within 24 hours. I went home, felt tired, and went to bed. Then, I woke up one hour before all three were due and tried to finish them all within one hour’s time. I didn’t finish, and I then tried to concoct plausible reasons why I did not finish even though he had told us that no excuses would be accepted.</p>

<p>I’ve also dreamt that I am rowing a canoe from Seattle to Japan while crocodiles snapped at me. I have had that dream more than once.</p>

<p>Whenever I fall asleep while studying for a physics test, I always dream I’m studying for a physics test.</p>

<p>Maybe that’s not a coincidence :D</p>

<p>I usually have a hard time sleeping if I have an important test the next day. I generally do not enter deep sleep but stay in a limbo state, and I’ll sit up and check the clock from time to time, too, for fear of oversleeping. How pitiful! I wish I could be more kick-back.</p>

<p>Wow Chaos, weird stuff. As for me, I hardly ever remember my dreams. I can think of maybe 3 or 4 times throughout my entire life where I remembered a dream. And I get into really deep sleep so I don’t know why. Oh well.</p>

<p>I remember mine most of the time, at least temporarily. They are usually about the same thing though…</p>
