There was something with me and Community people and it was sci-fi-y, horror film-y. Like we had to play some sort of game if we wanted to live. We were in a hospital-y place one time, then a mall. There was a person or disembodied voice or notes or something telling us what we had to do. We had to leave the mall and go somewhere else, something to do with numbers. But then only three or four or a limited number of us were going to make it. But I think it was more like if we made it, we got to play the game; not if we didn’t make it, we would die. So we were outside the mall looking for a bus stop to get to the next place, because we had figured out where it was based on the numbers. I was kind of on a team with some people, I think Jeff and Annie and Britta, and maybe Pierce. Or maybe I was one of them? I don’t know. So we were looking for a bus stop, and I thought to run down the road to look for one closer, rather than wait for the bus at the mall and end up leaving the same time as the other time, but that really didn’t make any sense because we would still both end up on the same bus anyway, and if it was full then we wouldn’t be able to get on at the next stop.
Anyway, I remember asking some olderish guy about the bus stops. I eventually found one and got the rest of my team to follow me. When we got there, the person who was running the game or whatever was there, or they left a note. And the numbers were there, and each of us had a number, and our numbers matched the numbers. So I asked the person/voice/whatever how they knew that we would be the ones who would get it right, especially when I didn’t want to play the game the whole time and when person x and y (who I don’t remember, but assuming I am Annie, since I think I was being Annie ish, was probably Jeff and Britta) both wanted to quit at some point.
Then I was at like a electronics store/toy store and I was myself. This was probably an earlier dream, but I was looking at Barbie with my mom, and she found like a pack of five Barbies together with ’80s clothes, and at least one was from Tropical Barbie series or whatever. And I found a little Barbie wearing gold clothes that I used to have and that I suspected my mom used to have (but I don’t know if I actually in real life used to have them). Or no, wait, yeah, there was that Barbie with the yellow pants that my mom had. Oh yeah, and there was stuff about that doll house I used to have. But yeah, this was before.
I was at this store and I saw this kid from like elementary etc school there, Sammy. He was talking to a cashier girl and she asked him for his email address and he said something normal then something like “fuck you at hotmail dot com!” and ran away. The girl started typing up a description of him, I could see her write “light brown” or something for his hair, then I remember he was wearing like a blue shirt and red shorts, or maybe the other way around. Then I started following him, because I wanted to see what would happen when he got kicked out. I think these scary Terminator-y guys or I dunno Darth Vader or something came to take him out.
Then, I don’t know if it was because of that, but then there was a big war in the store in like the toy section. I was with the good guys. And then I was like pretending we were the Power Rangers and I was like “Tommy, we need help!” and then I briefly considered yelling “Tommy, can you hear me?” lolol. Then also my brother was on our team. Then like the war ended or something, or there was only one person left, and that was the leader. And I for some reason yelled out something about Tracy Barlow. Then everyone was like “Wha?” because the leader was actually named Tracy. So then I decided she was Tracy Barlow so I went out there and kicked her ass. But actually, she was just a little 80s handheld video game thing. Then, after I stomped on it and stuff, I picked it up and it was reading a story, about I guess what was happening to me. My brother came over and I was reading it out loud to him and there was something about a wedding, and then it said Ken and Kevin weren’t sure about something and then my brother’s like “then what?” and I’m like “I dunno, I’m too excited because it said Ken and Kevin!”.
Then there was something separate about Katy and Chesney and her being pregnant. Also I think something with Rosie and Jason. Then there was Norris out on the street and the theme song from Austin Powers was playing and he was dancing or something.
Then me and some people wanted to do this performance art thingy out in the middle of an street, which involved the song, and possibly also Norris dancing. We were also sitting on skateboards. I think we tried on a little street, but it didn’t work, so then we went to that street like at the lights by the bowling alley? And we are supposed to walk around casually and then suddenly get on our skateboards and go out in the middle of the street. I forgot the first part, so I was just sitting on my skateboard like “Yeah, this is normal”. Then we started to go out on the street and people were pissed because we were blocking traffic. Then there were like a billion of us doing it (okay, not a billion. But like a hundred) and we were joining hands and forming four circles like if they were in a square and possibly Norris was in the middle or maybe my dad, carrying a box. Then there were lots of balloons with either babies or toys in them. Maybe baby dolls. Oh yeah, also when there weren’t so many people, there were like a lot of people watching on the street and we were on the skateboards and going around putting on a show and I was always last so I was like boogeying on my skateboard to the music around the crowd after everyone else had gone to another part and I was so embarrassed.
So then after it was all over, I was trying to return toys to kids, then there was one of those aliens from Toy Story and I yelled if it belonged to anyone. Some kid told me it did, but I didn’t believe him, then his brother came over and said it was his, and I kind of believed him, I think because of how the other kid reacted. The brother, who was younger, was wearing a Mighty Morphin Power Rangers suit and I told him he could have it back if he told me who the best Power Ranger was. And I think that’s where I woke up.
There was also something earlier with Jimmy Kimmel. I don’t know, my family was at a show or something, or watching a show. It was like I was in a car and looking at places and I was like “none of these places look like New York” but then saw some run down buildings and I was like “ok, maybe that one looks like New York”, then I guess I figured out it was L.A. instead.
I was walking somewhere with an older lady, then this big pirate ship came down from the sky above this open field. There were a few guys in it in old costumes, like Chinese Vikings or something. They said something in possibly another language, but we understood what it meant. They threw down a bunch of fire from the ship, and whoever was hit by the fire was “dead” and everyone else was “alive”. The “dead” people would have like a grey ember in their hands, and the “alive” people would have a bright orange one. Then we all had five minutes to run and hide or do whatever until the game began. If you were dead and touched someone alive, you would switch embers, and vice-versa. I guess the goal was to stay either dead or alive the longest. I ran into a nearby house and locked myself in some sort of toy room. There were projectors showing PowerPoint slides on the wall with the door, and a closet in the corner, then the opposite wall had some windows, which perhaps were basement windows. I closed all the blinds and I think attempted to shut the projectors off, but I don’t think I was able to. Somehow, there were other people in the room soon, and I guess we all ended up trading embers a few times. We found a girl in the closet who had gotten there before me who had an orange ember.
There was something like I was on a school trip with middle school friends. We went into this store which I think had lots of novelty penis stuff. We noticed Cindy went missing and I saw a purple ribbon or something waving out of the floor of the second floor and figured that must be her. I think we went up to get her and then there were guys with guns and stuff and so we were stuck up there for awhile. But they weren’t scary guys or scary guns. I tried slipping down the stairs and out the window a few times, but I would always hear the gun cocking behind me before I could make it. We must have made it out eventually.
Then there was this other dream about Lost. I think I was time skipping or something. There was a bit with Danielle and hiding behind a dilapidated well while being shot at, and telling her to protect Alex or something. Then I was on my street at home, and there were a bunch of birds arguing. Or maybe I was a bird too. But there was a rooster arguing with another bird, whose point of view I think I was seeing from, and that bird went up on one of the porches or something. Then we were near the end of the street by the library and right near the alley and Jack was there and he was like ooh, you guys better go, if you don’t want the old witch to get you or something, ’cause there was a witchy lady standing in the alley with her back to us. So the birds left except for a few pigeons who I think time skipped from the island or something and I/Jack/I and Jack went to talk to her and she was surprised about something, like either that we got the birds to leave, or that we predicted the future very well or something.
I’m at my grandma’s house in the upstairs living room/kitchen. There’s some sort of competition/game show type thing with a bunch of Corrie characters going on. They are all in a circle, perhaps there are podiums or a podium with their names on it. They were kind of in teams of two, or they would rotate the teams or something. I went over to talk to Simon (the character) who was perhaps in a team with Norris, but I think Norris left and Kirk came and sat down next to him at some point. I guess I asked Simon how he was doing in the game, and he was doing really well. I think he went around the room and told me who everyone one was, and I got the impression I knew all but three of them as characters on the show, and assumed the other three were writers. I’m pretty sure Ken was there, and possibly Deidre and Leanne. Peter was not there, but one of the writer guys looked like him but with a bead. Simon said a girl writer was named Bacall. I’m pretty sure Becky was there also. I guess it was Simon and Kirk’s turn or something and there was perhaps a wheel that was spun and a question asked. Kirk got it right, so he and Simon both got a point or a prize. I seem to think Simon had a small pile of papers or something that were his prizes. I gave Simon and thumbs up and said “good job” then I guess he looked at me weird, because he didn’t actually do anything, and I said something dumb like “well, you didn’t do anything but good job anyway” or I don’t know, something that was slightly not tactful. At some point, Simon left, but later came back to tell me something that had happened to him, so I guess he was not mad at me.
There was this bit I can’t really fit in where there was a scratch and sniff paper printed from Wikipedia, and we (or at least I) all thought it was pretty cool that printed paper could do that. There was like a little sticker of a cat that smelt and a a few other little ones, but I remember a big one that was like Christmassy or something and smelt of pine trees, but there was a note on it saying it was not made from real pine trees.
There was also this art stuff that was like a gold and silver ish paper where you would trace a knife or something and painting the knife bit and then it would run down in little dribbles. I suspect this part had something to do with Becky and also a bit of a toilet. It was like a toilet had broken or something and so when it does, you take out part of it and you can use it for an art project. And I was like “Well, make sure it is actually broken first”.
So I guess I decided it was weird and creepy that I was hanging around Simon. I decided to go downstairs because I guess that’s where the people who were out of the competition went, and I didn’t see Nick upstairs, so I figured I would go see him downstairs. My dream self has a thing for blonde guys. Anyway, I go downstairs and no one is there, so I’m pissed. I realize it’s a dream, or I may have already, but I’m standing sort of just through the doorway to the downstairs living room and I look at my hands. They do that sort of camera effect thing where they get closer and the background gets farther away and also out of focus. Then fingers start disappearing, and I’m not really scared, more think it’s cool, and also I know for sure it is a dream. Then I’m walking in the living room and see what looks to be wax figures perhaps of my dad’s sister and husband sitting facing the fireplace but sort of near the cellar door but beside the couch, on the floor. Then I get closer and realize they actually both look more like my dad’s brother.
So then I decide everyone must have went outside, so I go back into the office and towards the stairs, but then there is a new door that goes outside and it is at the bottom of the stairs, except it seems more to be like on a raised platform. I perhaps only notice the door because other people are going through it.
I go outside and there are lots of people. It’s like a fair. I start walking purposely in one direction because I know that is where the Corrie people are. I am just making this up of course to convince my dream to start populating my dream with them. Instead, I find myself in kind of like a mall sort of place. There are sloped walkways and an elevator that I contemplate using but decide against it. There are several rooms that are like silver and purple that are mostly empty. They seem to have been sponsored by businesses or wealthy people. There was also something to do with my dad’s work; it had either sponsored one of the rooms or maybe owned all of them.
Then I’m in more of a mall looking place and I start walking towards some stairs, a very wide staircase which was not a staircase but really just a few stairs. Then I see Jeff from Community walking the other way, and I get a good look and I’m pretty sure it really looked like him. He’s wearing a leather jacket ish and black pants and a white T-shirt with a large happy face looking thing with perhaps also bright green and red on it (in addition to standard yellow and black happy faces) and the face is sort of like offset so parts of it are not on the shirt. He starts taking the shirt off (with the jacket still on somehow) and there’s another shirt like it underneath (and I assume many more). I suppose I might have asked him what he was doing because he said something about “super hot sex, baby”. I don’t know if he meant with me or himself or someone else or what. (Also, what did I say about blonde guys?). (Also, that was totally a steal from That ’70s Show, apparently an episode called “Romantic Weekend”) Anyway, perhaps then I was pissed he said that because I got the “waking up” feeling. I may have tried to look at my hands again.
Oh yeah, at some point, I touched my bottom lip and it felt kind of numb. I think this also gave me that “waking up” feeling.
Then I woke up. I’m at home, by the way. I think I felt I was lying on something and I looked to my left and saw my T-Bone stuffed dog toy from when I was a kid. I grabbed him and put him under my arm. I continued grabbing my other three dogs and holding onto them. I didn’t remember getting them out, so I figured I must have sleepwalked and got them from my closet. Then my little blue/brown swirly pillow was sort of on my legs I think, and I went to pick it up and move it. Then either the other swirly pillow started coming towards me from just above my legs/the end of the bed, and it tried to smother me. There may or may not have been a small dark-ish shadowy figure pushing it towards me.
Then I really woke up.
That’s the first time I’ve ever had a false awakening that I can remember. It was scary at the time, but now, I also feel, pretty awesome.
So seriously just had this dream since I went to bed at 9:30. I’m at some school that I don’t know, which looks more like a mall, and that I suspect is Greendale Community College, but looks nothing like the TV show. It is night time, or it becomes night time over the course of some events. I can recall leaving several times and walking past Abed. I would look back at him as I passed him, then he would look at me, and I would look away quickly, but I actually wanted him to see me looking at him. It was our little game. Then later in a flashback, it was revealed Abed and Troy were having a feud with anyone who wore tartan (there was like a bunch of quick scenes of them kind of like in the trampoline episode which was like Oh, why didn’t we see that before, and then culminating in them like writing something cryptic in a nice scripty font over top of a large piece of tartan fabric). Which is not me, but anyway. Also, something about Jeff that I do not remember. I also get the feeling I was babysitting people or was supposed to be.
Then I’m in this mall/college place and my parents are supposed to pick me up at this certain place after an ‘s’. That is not grammatically incorrect or missing something. That is what it actually was and it makes no sense. After I made an ‘sss’ sound or something? I don’t know. But they weren’t there, so I started going to other places I thought they might be.
Then somehow I had a wach that was also kind of a phone, but one-way only, as in I could kind of hear the people on the other side. So I guess I called them, and I remembering thinking I would have trouble with it because it was a dream, so I was like, Okay, focus all of your energy on this, because this call is really important. I was sitting in the middle of the floor in this mall place and I’m like “everybody leave me alone” and then Bill from True Blood walks by and I’m like, “Okay, except vampire Bill” and then I like drag him down to sit next to me and protect me. I don’t know from what. Because like, I’m not Sookie, so what was stopping him from eating me? I guess I’m a Sookie in my dreams.
Anyway, I hear my mom and dad saying they are at my high school looking for me and they’re like “Well, she’s supposed to be here” and then they decide to spit up and look around the area for ‘sss’es or something, and dad says he’s going to check the hospital to see if anyone came there passed out. I start yelling NO! NO! NO! at the phone/watch and then start making my way to the school. I’m kind of where my middle school was.
I go to that pizza place across the street-ish from my middle school and see what looks like Heather and Cindy across the street and start waving, but they don’t wave back.
I start running towards my high school, but stop at least once thinking that it’s hopeless. There are also some kids in the middle of the street in fancy dress or being magicians or something. There was at least one boy and one girl and I get the feeling the boy’s name was Josh. I think this is the street that goes parallel to the middle school on the side where the outdoor pool is and sort of towards-ish the daycare.
Also at one point it was cold out and I was in a snowy/icy parking lot.
I commandeer a vehicle badly and drive it from the backseat up that street that leads to the mall. I pass by some grocery store on that street. I turn the corner to get to the school and see mom and dad in separate cars driving around, so I get out of the car so they know it’s me. I guess mom runs out and hugs me or something and I’m like Wait, I didn’t actually park the car, it just kind of drifted to a stop, and I wanted her to stop it.
There was a tallish guy with an Australian accent who was married to a woman who was a midget or possibly like… tiny. Like, bite-sized. Anyway, they thought I was a bitch because I wouldn’t be friends with their daughter. I half woke-up and rolled over and thought, “They need to get rid of these characters; nobody likes them”.
