Wow, leave it to the dream I finally remember in a long while to be a scary one.

I had a dream I was at my aunt’s house with Makena. I guess we were just chilling in the family room. I think I was playing video games. Makena went to the room to sleep, and I think I kept playing. I then fell asleep playing or watching TV. I then thought I woke up, but I was super disoriented. I was able to walk to where Makena was sleeping, but then I walked back to the family room to make sure everything was off. My vision then started getting vaguer and vaguer, and I couldn’t see very well. I tried finding my way back to the room, but I ended up walking all over the place. It felt like I was drunk for some reason. I stumbled into what I thought was the right room, only to bump into two ladies. They appeared to be my uncle’s sisters or relatives. They saw that I was really out of it and helped me to a bed. So I ended in a room on a bed, and there were those ladies and some other girls there too. They were taking care of me. As I was dozing off, I felt them touching my hands and feet. I kind of withdrew away from them to pretend I was flinching or something, and then the touching became more forceful. This time, I was like ‘Okay, that’s not normal.’ So I opened my eyes to see one of the ladies trying to grab my hand up. I was like, ‘No!’ And then suddenly all the girls around me turned into demons. They were scary as fuck. I freaked out. I started praying the Our Father and then the room started shaking. As I was praying the shaking started dying down. But then it started again and I prayed the Hail Mary, then Glory Be. Finally, the shaking stopped, and I ended up waking up somewhere random in my aunt’s house. I couldn’t tell where I was, because when I got up, I was disoriented again. This time I realized I was still in a dream, and I woke myself up. And then now I’m here. Man, that was intense.

I was in some strange city. I was trying to get out of this city almost like venice. All these buildings surrounded by water. As I was trying to get out, there was this gang of girls that killed anyone they see or anyone that would fall into the water. I was trying to maneuver my way around the buildings parkour style, but my first attempt at jumping towards another building failed. I fell in the water and desperately swam to get to another building. I almost got caught by one of the gang girls. I managed to escape them and started running towards the other buildings. They became aware of my presence and started chasing after me. I kept running and climbing and swimming until I reached this giant fence. I saw my friends on the other side. I climbed hurriedly and called out to them. My “best friend,” I would like to think, heard me first. It was Rosario Dawson. She saw me and helped me run away. She called her horse and we both got onto it. The leader of the girl gang was going to try to cut off our path. But she didn’t have the heart to harm the horse. And off we ran.

I’ll try to remember the bits and pieces.

I was at my elementary school’s auditorium, and that day we were having PCE’s Getting To Know. People started coming in, but I realized it was only people who were already part of the club. I kept waiting and waiting for new people to show up, but it never happened. After a while, I pretty much gave up.  I woke up and went back to sleep and had another dream. I met up somewhere with my elementary school crush. She invited me over to her house. She asked if I wanted to watch Inception. I said no. I saw someone in the other room, but she told me that it was just a ghost. I was like, “wtf.” She wasn’t really a good host, and she went off and did her own thing around the house. I wasn’t really sure what to do, so I ended up walking around the house and went inside what I thought was her room and went to sleep. After I woke up, I went to her and told her I fell asleep. She had this sad look on her face. I felt bad and told her I would leave. That I would walk home since she drove me to her place. I left. I woke up.

I was watching my dogs play in the yard. I noticed something different though. They had access to the neighbor’s yard. There were a few openings to get there. So my dogs wandered into their yard, nothing to really worry about. A kid comes out, and I was scared my dogs were going to bite/bark at her. No problems there. Then all of a sudden, there’s a bigger than average gorilla that comes in, supposedly owned by my neighbors. My dogs have no idea what a gorilla is so they just kept barking at it. Cooper was the closer one to it and she just kept barking and barking at it, getting a little close to it as well. Like nothing, the gorilla swings its arm and sends Cooper flying. I couldn’t believe my eyes and I was stuck in place in shock. Benji was a little further away, barking to his heart’s content after seeing what happened. I can tell he was sad/angry, but he couldn’t do anything. The gorilla saw Benji, and then stomped and kicked him against a wall. At that point, I was on the verge of tears, and I ran out to go get them. I was already afraid that Cooper and Benji were dead. As I approached their limp bodies, I called out their names, hoping they would hear me. Miraculously, they opened their eyes, barely alive. I picked both of them up, taking them out of harm’s way as fast as I could. I ended up carrying them into an elevator, not sure where it was taking them. I ended up laying them down on a bed, and I had to double-check if they were still alive. They were still alive, but barely. The floodgates opened. Then I woke up.

I had this dream where I had these 3 tasks to do. The first one, I had to turn into a robot and enter this Battle of the Bands contest. So I turned into a robot and did just that. I made it to the final round against Death Cab for Cutie, and we won. The next task, I had to fight against Scar from the Lion King. I had time to “Be Prepared” but he cheated and tried to fight me before I was ready. I couldn’t transform into adult Simba in time so for the first part I had to fight as a human. I was able to manage keeping Scar from tearing me to pieces. I was able to throw him off to gain enough time to transform into adult Simba. From then on, it was pretty easy to defeat him. Right after that, my next task was to become a vampire. I had to go hunt certain people and kill them. I killed everyone except for the last person because I realized that I was killing people for no reason. Then I woke up.

I had a dream within a dream. My house was by the ocean, and my window was right next to the water. My dream within a dream was that our house was at the top of some structure over the water. The tide was really crazy and our house started rocking back and forth. It got to the point where the house started shifting. The tide got so crazy that our house shifted too much, and fell off the structure and was headed to its destruction. I managed to wake up in my bed and looked out the window next to the ocean. I got up and went outside and walked close to the shore. I met up with Raymon and I was going to tell him about my dream. Then I woke up.

I then had another dream where I was getting ready for the beach. My sisters or some random girls were making fun of me about something, and I got really pissed. I chased after them with these long metal rods, pretending that I was going to hit them. Eventually, they got away. I went back into my room to get ready. Then I woke up.

I think I had a dream within a dream. But I remember that one. I was at a PCE party or hangout of some sort with some other random people I know. We were all watching a movie. Someone was like, I don’t want to watch anymore because I can’t find a comfortable way to lay down. Later, my friend kept trying to hook me with up with her sister. That was weird.

I woke up, but still in my dream world, where I was in my old house, in my old room. Then I woke up.

My other dream was sad. I was at my grandpa’s house, where my aunt and her daughter were about to start the grill. They had a dog I never saw before, and what was stranger was that they also had a pet seal. I looked into the pool, and there were dozens of seals! I tried to pet them but they all kept swimming away.

Then I noticed my dog, Benji laying down. I called him over to me, and he came to me slowly. I was noticing something different about him. He seemed very weak and sad. We thought that maybe he was hurt or something, but we didn’t see anything. It was really sad. I could see it in his eyes that he was going to die. At that point, I bursted into tears. Everywhere I went I would start crying if I thought of him.

Then I woke up, thankfully it wasn’t true.

I should’ve written this down when I woke up, but it’s still a little fresh in my head.

I was with this girl, whom I didn’t recognize. But I had some pretty strong feelings for her. We were at an airport. I think she was going to leave. And it was obvious we were both pretty sad. There’s this whole backstory about us, about how we met. She was not in the best situation when I met her, and I just happened to have pass on by. But fast forward to the airport. She hugged me really tight, and I felt the tears dripping from her face. And it affected me too. I felt the sadness settle in, and I told her how glad I was to have met her and that I would always be there for her. She kissed me. And at that moment, I was feeling confused. My dream self was mixing with my reality self. After, I felt pretty bad, like it was something I shouldn’t have done. I woke up in a confused state of mind. It felt so real.

That’s one thing that always trips me out about dreams, how REAL it appears to be. It’s like you think about if dreams are some sort of prediction of the future, or if it’s your subconscious putting thoughts into your mind about things you normally wouldn’t want to think about. 

I was at a Mark Casilang’s house. There was a birthday party for Kevin Sutardji. I was with Miguelli and Justin. Two girls I knew were there. One was eyeing me. And then the other I was right next to. The one I was next to was flirting with me the whole time me, the guys, and her were talking. Next thing I know, I kissed her, but then she went somewhere else. I looked at the girl eyeing me and she was like,  ”wow, really.” Then some of Kevin’s friends were coming to surprise him with a cake. They came in singing Happy Birthday and I was carrying Kevin to congratulate him. After, I sat down. The girl I kissed was like, where were you? I told you to meet me in Melissa’s room. I don’t even know who Melissa was. At the point, I already felt really bad. I felt like I was drunk and I had the spins, and I didn’t even drink, in the dream that is. And then my friends were like, damn she spun you around in circles, and that’s exactly how I felt. I woke up and felt disoriented. Freakin’ dreams.

I was at an ice cream truck. The ice cream man was Bobby Flay. There was a girl in front of me ordering something. She ended up taking forever and got this 20 scoop strawberry ice cream thing. Everyone was getting mad that she took so long. It was finally my turn to order. There were so many choices, weird ones too. I tried to pick something quick so that people wouldn’t get mad at me too. I sampled these two fruit sorbet flavors, and they weren’t that good. I ended up getting Vanilla and some random ass ice cream flavor thing. It was this hardened, taffy like ice cream thing (kind of like dipping dots) and had oatmeal and chocolate chips inside with vanilla ice cream. After I got my ice cream, I passed through this house. I saw Mar in a dream like stance, and remembered earlier how she was doing all this crazy shit. And then I told her about how she was standing on the walls and ceilings. I walked out and asked if she was going to be able go back home, which was literally a few feet from where we were. She said yeah. I went into what was supposedly her house and saw PCE people. As soon as I walked in, I see at the end of the hall people playing beer pong. Jay saw me and said, “Rex should drink this!” I ran away saying, “No! I still have to eat my ice cream.” I turned around and saw Benedicto and Tien on the couch.

And then I woke up
