Abandoned home
Police
Friend
Party
Cat
Bathroom

Dream

I had a black and white cat and I was looking for a home. I found an abandoned one that was nice in good condition there was no locked doors most the doors here just curtains. I looked it up online and it was vacant and needed an owner so me and the cat moved in the cat always would run outside and chase squirrels whenever it wasn't right next me. I invited Anita over and we were hanging out. Johnny Garcia showed up tryna flirt with me (I'm still mad at him) But I let him walk with me to go meet up with Anita. We got Anita and went back to the house. And I started decorating and Anita and Johnny snook off. Then Anita came back alone. Then when Johnny came back people one by one started showing up and turned into a house party. Some how Mrs. Roger's seen the party and was yelling at everyone and threatened to call the cops while I hid in the bathroom pretending to pee and there was 2 girls and 1 dude in the shower hanging out. I was tryna keep the door closed but the door was just a curtain. Then people started leaving and so she left but she still was gonna call the cops so while everyone was leaving I was trying to take my decorations down ( it's weird because in real life every time I think I have a home and start decorating as soon as all my decorations go up I have to move and pack my stuff ) and my cat found me and Anita and Anita was gonna be my ride out of there but the old owners of the house came back and they seen me and Anita and they weren't even worried about us being there they were so nice and I told them that someone just called the cops on us for being there and they didn't seem worried and wrote us a note saying they allowed us to be there but Anita disappeared with that note when the owners came to tell us the cops were outside so I had no ride so the owners asked their friend to give me a ride in his van and that friend turned out to be Joseph from work. And when we got in the van to leave we ran into the mob of people that were part of the house party. And they blocked the way for us to leave so we were stuck then I woke up.

Van

Dream

It started with me and some friends (none I know in real life) in this van, and we were doing some delivery job together and we ended up delivering to this one house and we knock and it's an older couple who answers the door (I'd guess they were in their fifties?) and they let us inside and we chat a little bit and then the husband leads us down to the basement cause there's stuff down there he wants to show us, and when he flips on the light it's a room full of nazi memorabilia and old world war 2 guns and he's showing us all this stuff and jokingly pointing the guns at us cause they aren't loaded (it scared me the first time he pulled a trigger, but it didn't shoot anything) and the whole time we have to act like this is okay, like pretend it's not really weird to have all this stuff because we don't want to upset him cause we all realize the fact he has all this mean he could be dangerous, and eventually after a while he finally leads us back out and to the door so we leave and hang out in the van somewhere else for a while but later that night I realize I left something behind and so I walk back to the house alone and sneak in through a window and I left it in the basement while the guy was talking to us so I sneak back down and grab it and I try to sneak back out but the guy catches me so I run to the window and try to go through it but it's taking longer than it should cause I'm panicking and fumbling but I manage to get out as he grabs for my leg and I start running and he's chasing me and I run through the dark down a path in the woods cause I think the darkness will make him loose me but he's right on my tail the whole time and I panicked more when I saw another shadow coming towards me from further in the woods and try to run past him but he stops me and I'm terrified that I'm about to die or worse but that man asks what's going on but the man chasing me catches up to us and then suddenly the dream changes the second he touches me, I'm with my friends again, this time on a ship as we go into enemy territory during a war (it was a big boat we were on but it drove on land or ice) and people warn us that's dangerous but we say we aren't here to fight we're just civilians traveling, they let us through the gate and we're there for a bit then when we try to leave they don't open the gate again, we're trapped there, we try to find another way around it through a jungle but then something cylindrical rolls towards our ship and it explodes and we realize those are bombs as they start aiming more at us we abandon ship and run into the jungle and swing through the trees to escape and then I see the leader of a troop looking for us and it's same guy who chased me before and as soon as he locked eyes with me I woke up.

Dream

There was a giant group of muscular guys who dug a hole in my garage and planted thousands of dollars in it then left for a while. My older brother knew this and told my sister and I so we went ourside and started digging it up and found money in bands of 1,000 or so. Since we found one band we kept digging around to get more and more, and I knew they were coming back so i said we need to cover up the hole. turns out we were too late and they show up at our door at night time and we weren’t ready. Dori says we should run upstairs and hide- i check on my brother filling in the garage to let him know our plan and the whole is halfway covered back up and the other half like has just covering it. So we go upstairs and hide until the next day. We go downstairs to see if theyre gone, but they’re outside in our driveway in a van waiting for us. We got the idea to grab pumpkins and walk outside. So we walked outside with two pumpkins per person and the gang gets out their van and punches and smashes our pumpkins. That satisfied them and they left.

Dream

It's nighttime. I decided I'm going to drive to Spokane to be a stripper. I get there and find a Qdoba place and try to order $5 ramen bowl. They're out. I order something else instead. Then I'm in a shop with some people. 2 boys are doing their laundry. I'm joking with them. I'm in a group of people. There's an older woman who seems to be in charge. I'm doing a tarot reading at a table while the rest are waiting. The older woman decides it's time to go. I scramble to put my cards back in their box and get my socks and shoes on. They're already outside getting the the van. I pass a guy and girl arguing on my way out. The girl walks up to me and asks for advice. I'm crossing a field that's full of little figurines. Someone's yelling at me not to step on them but they're so tiny and everywhere that it's almost impossible not to. I make it to the van. The windows are down and the people are watching me. There's a green duck that noone notices sitting by the door. It's eating bread crumbs. I reach out to pet it. Then I'm following some monks past a concrete path filled with different sized statues. Im racing one of them. We're both seeing who can dodge the statues. We make it past some pillars where the masters waiting. They hugged us. They walked up to an entryway and some of the people went upstairs. The master went downstairs and some girl went in a sliding hole downstairs. I checked to see if there was a way up but it was just an empty void so I followed the master down. The path downstairs was dark but as I walked there were little iridescent strips on the stairs that illuminated the pathway. I woke up before reaching the bottom

Fish
Van

Dream

I was in this exhibit or atrium place with plants, walkways, water, etc. I was seeing this huge poisonous snake eating fish and swimming around and it was quite scary. It was coming at me and I yelled at Erick to grab my hand and help me leap across the snake so it couldn’t bite me and I got away. I was riding a weird ferris wheel with tom that was just us sitting on a tiny seat with footrests. He kept tickling me and my palms were sweaty and I thought I might fall off. Luckily it didnt’ go very high; more horizontal. Working out in a gym that wasn’t really a gym but also had beds. This weird guy was doing situps by my bed and his foot kept hitting my pillow and I had to say something. I was in a van driving somewhere with Tom on my left and two women on my right. I was wearing my Cabrales hat and a woman said she also had a boat there and I asked if she knew Salvador and she said yes. I was visiting Dorty and she was very short and childlike. She didn’t know her name or my name and kept saying her name was all these other things, but it was like she was living an imaginary world like a child. She seemed happy and was puttering around and playing. I was at a huge property compound and I think vaguely the Salvadors were there but I saw someone driving by on a huge columbine or tractor thing. Not sure what else happened

Store
Door
Blanket

Dream

My friend Hawa and I went into this store which should be her office. But now has been taken over to set up shop for a clothing line. We decided to window shop and check out what they had in stock. Then we heard someone pulling up. We hurried to get all our stuff out of there. She got all her stuff out but i didnt. For some reason one of the stuff i had was a van-like vehicle which i dont remember it being there when we got into the space. However it was light enough for me to pick up and put it away. While still trying to get everything out. The store owner got back in with someone else. I realized the store owner was my old co-worker Kenya when I used to work at the City of Boston before I moved to NC. We chit chatted for a little bit to catch up wondering what brought her down here and transition in her career as she was a landscape architect in Boston. She told me she wanted something different and decided to open up this store. I congratulated and went back to connect with my friend. When i reconnected with her i think it hit her she was getting laid off and she wasn’t even made aware. I comforted her and we decided to prep some food to celebrate her time here since the office space is still officially hers. We started to get food together cause there was a kitchen but the place was now full of ppl coming in and out getting the store ready. It seems like the store was a branch of this whole corporation and my former co-worker was going to be the manager of it. So we were navigating all these ppl while trying to prep this food it was frustrating because we felt overlooked and not seen. It was particularly emotional for my friend which I tried to be there for. At some point they even closed a door in one of the rooms attempting to prevent us from coming inside which we decided to come in anyway. At some point we left and as my friend grieved and try to figure out what was next I comforted her. She needed to go tell her husband the news and we left. We bumped into the senior executive who advised her she needed to send any money back she earned from her last check because it sounded like the reason for the closing down of this department was a scandal. But she couldn't do that cause her funds were already allocated and send out to pay bills. It became increasingly frustrating and emotional for her. In another connected dream. I became a roommate to this white woman who was pregnant. We lived in this home and it seemed like we had limited freedom. However the white woman was getting particularly abused by this white man who is the owner of this place we were staying at. There was very little of anything I can do to help her. At some point of the dream she was wrapped up in a blanket alive but seem unconscious surrounded by this group black village people who decided to take her to help her give birth cause she was late. This other group of Black people told them they were taking her. I was really confused cause I was wondering why these Black people were putting themselves at extreme risk to voluntarily help this white woman who probably was going to be ok despite the abuse she was going through at our house. The dream felt like it was making us black people the stereotypical trope of the magical negro. They black folks sent her back and she ended back to care of the white man. I was also there and he instructed me to care for this woman as she gives birth; which I didn't volunteer for but I didn't have a choice. They put us in this room and I set up the bed and put her down so she can be comfortable. Somehow my eldest sister heard about this and came to me and asked me why I got roped into this and I told her I had no choice she stayed to help me. The baby was teddy bear like. The head was already out but the rest of the body wasn't but we also knew that didn't mean the baby was dead it just seem normal for the head to be out sometimes and then we could reconnect if later. Seem like a weird part of the dream but was normal. When the white woman she saw I was helping her and she was very grateful. She was also anxious about giving birth but I comforted her. I woke up before she fully gave birth.

Dream

In my dream I'm an actress on set with my friends/crew doing different sets. One of the bosses is a douchebag and goes to get fucked off set while we work. He has a wife. She knows and doesn't care. All of a sudden these monsters...maybe they're aliens...come from out of nowhere and start attacking everything on set. I tried fighting back when one comes after me but end up being saved by 2 of my friends. We head for another set that everyone else is in. Then our boss comes in naked and screaming that his dick got cut off. Everyone is freaked and grossed out. I try to get out of the way but he sets it on a bench right by me. Somehow he still has time to smack his wife's bare ass behind the sets bar. I ask for a bowl and ice to put his deck into so we can get him to a hospital. She takes her time and acts really stingey about the ice. I ask her to give it to me so I can do it myself. One of my friends is back there so I ask her to grab my small blue purse. There's a bunch of tiny purses so she was confused until I said the blue one. I had her move it to my bigger purse before walking outside to get into the back of the van. All my crew is in the van so 2 had to get out to let me in. One girl that I felt like I was interested in told me I look like I'm enjoying myself too much holding the dice. I almost threw up. I'm sitting by my friend Ashley and she looks at me and then quickly kisses the person across from her who I used to have feelings for. I looked at her shocked and said "girl you have a fiance. " she giggled and shrugged her shoulders. Whoever driving turns too hard and I drop the dick on the ground. Somewhere in the middle of my dream it switches to the bar I work at in real life and I'm showing a girl where to get a shirt from in the back closet. My boss yavonne looks annoyed waiting for me but doesn't say anything. The girl is taking her sweet time but we both get distracted by cute shirts. The one I like is really sparkley and almost looks like a color changing butterfly. Yavonne comments and says it's really cute. We keep looking for a shirt for the girl. Then my dream cuts back to the part where I'm an actress again

Kidnapping
Friend
Father
Night
Bedroom
Running

Dream

This dream I had when I was about 10 years old. (4 Years ago) But I still vividly remember all the details. It started with me wandering this street. The buildings felt like tall, cement blocks with doors. The night darkened the mood. The yellow streaks lining the walls illuminated. For a segment of the dream, it is a bit fuzzy. Then, the next thing I see is my old bedroom surrounding me. It wasn't the entire house, only the bedroom. I was practically stuck to the bed and in a panic. My first instinct was to escape. So after 5 minutes (estimate), I bolt out of the room and find the front door of my old house. But when I walk out, it's the same outside as before. The cement world. I run and run and run down the way until a car-garage-looking building catches my eye. I turn into there, hoping to hide from whatever brought me to my old house. I go inside and find a friend from my elementary school. She was the sweetest girl ever, and I cared about her a lot. Now that I think about her, I believe she had a crush on me at the time. I tell her that I was running from whatever it was, and she offers me water from the sink. Nothing else significant happens before I see a car searching for me. I once again try to run away. I try to escape this lady. But she catches me and forces me into her van. She says, "I told you couldn't run away. Do not try again." And she swiftly drives me back to my old bedroom. For the next couple segments, I'm stuck lying in bed for a while. At one point, I'm on my tablet watching one of my favourite YouTubers. And then one of the most significant moments in the dream, the lady who had kidnapped me pulled me to the edge of the bed. Her long fingers trace a line just above my knee. She watches my expression carefully. "Once this is all over, I'll cut your leg off right here. Does that sound good?" She threatens. After that, there is a big blur. Then the final scene I see before I wake up is me and the lady scavenging through a janitor's closet. She says something along the lines of "You're dad has a secret." And when I ask her what she means, the dream is cut short.

Car
Crowd
Bag
Parking Lot

Dream

I went to Crumbl to try their new line of flavors. I got a box of cookies but they didn’t look all the great (I didn’t realize until after I left the door). There was a family leaving behind me but they couldn’t make it out the door so I held the door open for them. After I was out of the door, I realized my car wasn’t where I left it. I searched around the parking lot hoping I could find it, but I couldn’t find it. I did, however, find my bag left behind in the parking lot but idk if my things were still in it. I sat in the parking lot to try my cookies while they’re still warm and that’s when I noticed many of them didn’t look right as they were missing frosting but they still tasted good. Eventually a crowd of people were also eating in the parking lot. I took a moment to try calling the police for help after trying to locate my car using its tracking GPS. Unfortunately the crowd was so loud I couldn’t really hear the people on the phone and I tried yelling at the crowd to shut up. I initially just called the emergency number and then couldn’t decide if my car was an emergency or not. I hung up after getting so frustrated with not being able to hear them. I went back to my spot after hanging up just to realize my cookies were stolen too. I tried to get it back from the people who stole them after chasing them to their van only to then be told that my cookies were already eaten.
