House Hunting

I dreamt I was with Yu Lee, Shivani and Nisha. For some reason Shivani and Nisha were looking for somewhere to live and we decided to go with them to look at houses.

All of the houses we looked at were really weird. Most of them were small, and they all had strange features so that they could make better use of space. The main one I remember was in Cornwall, and was very close to the sea.

When we went inside the tiny little house, at first we couldn't find the bedroom. We looked around for a while, and then noticed something strange in the living room. The end of the living room had a wall that was angled at 45 degrees, so that it sloped up from the floor and away from the room. At the top of the slope was a small platform with a bed on it and a tiny window right next to it.

We climbed up onto the platform and when I looked out of the window there was an amazing view with waves crashing against cliffs.

Going to the Shops

Later on I was at home (wherever that was!) and I was going to meet up with a friend. He was going to come round and then we were going to go to the supermarket for something.

When he got to my house I realised that his mum has brought him and was going to take us in her car, and for some reason I really didn't want to get in the car with her. I told someone else in the house to tell them that I'd gone already and snuck out the back and made my own way to the supermarket.

Later on in the dream I am in a car and someone else is driving me. We are on our way to another shop, this time a smaller convenience store like a coop. When we get there the car park is tiny and quite secluded, and there is a small triangular pond. The edges of the pond are basically platforms raised off of the pond bed on stilts so that the inside of the pond is quite a bit bigger than the opening.

The driver of the car tells me he is going to park in the pond and I tell him not to, but he insists that he "always parks like this in dreams". Although the dream character tells me we are in a dream I think nothing of it.

As the car moves over edge of the pond I think to myself "I hate it when this happens" and brace for impact. The car crashes into the water and gets wedged under the platform at the edge of the pond. I feel trapped, like there is no way out.

Shortly after that we somehow escape from the submerged car and go inside the shop. We are looking around when the security guard starts staring at us, and I know it's because he saw us park in the pond. He approaches us to throw us out and I wake up naturally.

I only remember the last part of this dream.

I had some other people in the car, I think it was Yu Lee, Shivani and Nisha, and I was parking in a weird multi-storey carpark that I think has been in my dreams before.

I drove up the ramp onto one of the higher floors of the carpark, and I was about to cross the bridge (which they have on each floor) to the other section, when I noticed a set of wide spaces down a little ramp. For some reason I got out of the car and pushed it by the door whilst steering with my left hand.

As I got close to my space a man approached me and started talking to me. Before I could realise what was going on he'd popped open my bonnet and ripped some stickers off of the inside. "I've taken the stickers with the serial numbers and codes on them, so now you won't ever be able to claim on your insurance. Tell me the secret key for the engine," he demanded. I felt threatened, but I'm not sure why as he didn't have a weapon.

"I don't know the secret key, and even if I did I wouldn't tell you," I replied.

At that moment he started to do something which distracted him. I quickly pushed the car round in a circle and back the way I came, and then pushed it into a lift. The man notices and started to run towards me just as the doors closed and I pressed the 'down' button.

As the lift started to move (with the car inside it) I woke up.

Me and Yu Lee were playing some kind of computer game in this dream. We were actually inside the game though.

The first level involved climbing down a cliff on what seemed to be an alien planet. It was basically like climbing down a climbing wall.

Yu Lee had done it before so she guided me through it and we climbed down the cliff which was covered in vegetation. There were all sorts of flying creatures around.

When we go quite a way down the cliff, Yu Lee blasted a hole in the cliff face with a grenade. Inside the hole was a building with bedrooms and a communal room with a pool table and a table football table. They weren't normal tables though, and the balls were weird.

We chilled out there for a while, and Bob, Shivani and Nisha were there. Yu Lee went in a bedroom with the girls and I tried to play pool with Bob.

After a while some men with guns came in and said that they were Romanian soldiers, and that our guns couldn't hurt them. They tried to sell me some cigarettes but I wasn't interested.

After a while they put their guns on the table and went into another room. I stole their guns and tried to shoot them, but the bullets wouldn't work. I saved my game and then tried to shoot Yu Lee to see if the guns actually worked. She immediately slumped back in her chair with lots of bullet wounds down her front.

The soldiers were angry and one of them told me that even if I load my game she still might have some bullets inside her. All of a sudden Yu Lee moved and the solider said "Oh shit she's still alive." He told me to hurry up and load my saved game, but when I tried to load it it said that it couldn't decrypt the file as it was from an earlier version of the game. The soldiers didn't know what to do either.
