Dream -
Though I had many dreams this particular night, I can only remember one, and only one scene from it.

I was at my own house on the front lawn next to my drive way. We had a semi in-ground pool there, and my friend Shelby (my neighbor), we were swimming and having a good time. It felt like a late summer early evening.

Suddenly, I hear screeching tires and I witness my dad's van come tearing down the driveway. As the garage door is opening, the van pulls in, barely nicking the mechanized door. Another pseudo-memory is created at this point, letting me know that my ex boyfriend Ryan has been working for my dad. Apparently he goes out on deliveries, and even though we are broken up, he still visits the house to complete his job, which requires him to use my dad's van.

So as Ryan comes out of the garage, he sees Shelby and I swimming in this pool and having a good time. My stomach goes sour. Diving under the water, I try to avoid him because I didn't want to speak, to even say one word to him. But he stays there, talking to Shelby and just staring at the water. After a while, I mentally questioned (while under water), "Why am I not running out of air? Oh, wait, I'm fine. I can breath under water. That's better."

My dream ended and I still didn't surface to face him.

Environmental Influences -
Setting - This weekend I had returned home for the first time in a month and a half, so it seems logical that I'd have a dream dealing with my home.

People - Again, Ryan appeared in my dream, which is strange because he has become a more frequent visitor now that I've started this blog. Maybe returning home also brought back some memories. Also, Shelby is my next door neighbor at home, so that too doesn't seem strange that she'd appear.

Items - There were no items in this dream that stood out.

Misc. Information - The weekend that I'm here, I am sick with a sore throat, cough, fever, running nose and congestion. If I was healthier, I would probably have more dreams to write about, as I know I've dreamed a lot this past night.

Dream -

Many things went on in this particular dream. The setting was on the Arcadia University campus and on the sport's field no less. (It was on the north western side). On top of the Kuch center, there was a giant movie screen and they were going to be playing Twilight, the new vampire love story that everyone and their dog are freaking out about. Anyway, it was-no pun intended-twilight and I was curled up on a cold metal bench next to Davis. We were watching this movie with a lot of other people. Some were laying in the grass, or walking to find spaces to sit.

Halfway through the dream, I realized that the Twilight movie was actually in anime form. I remember thinking, "I thought they did this with real people." And as if to explain, my dream created a pseudo-memory process where I ‘recalled' them using real people as the foundation for the anime work.

Strange things happened then. An ice cream truck (a rather creepy one too), was driving around campus but didn't seem to want to sell any ice cream to the students. Then at another point, three boys got into a scuffle on the soccer field. I sensed that they were apparently shape shifters (like in the movie Twilight), and this whole battle sequence happened.

The third boy disappeared, and in the middle of the field, the people and scenery just seemed to fade away as I focused on these two boys. Their features are hard to remember, but I do recall the colors blue, white and red. (One boy was blue and white while the other was wearing red). They summoned up these monsters to fight each other. One was a giant dragon with a long swirling body while the other appeared like a fiery serpent. It was like watching a battle between the elements of water and fire.

Environmental Influences -
Setting - The dream took place on the college campus that I attend. So obviously there wasn't anything strange about that.

People - Most of the people in this dream were faceless or unknown to me besides Davis, who is a friend from online that I talk to a lot.

Items - There really were no particular items in this dream that stood out to me.
