more dreams

The way I have been sleeping, in spurts with alarms, I seem to be woken up amidst dreams every night this week. I should maintain a dream journal

Themes
1. Tsunami and being stuck in a building that resembles the ad-block of my college. This theme has been recurrent. Although locations have changed, the people involved have largely remained the same. I am usually with someone, running, shouting, climbing stairways, balconies or hills. I always wake up to the horror of having escaped each time but watching horrible things happen to other people.

2. Today's dream was rather pleasant. I had stumbled upon a little comic book lending store in CMI although the college looked more like my old college. It had all the asterix and tintin comics one could dream of. The shop was a small, made of glass - almost invisible. The shopkeeper was friendly and mostly never there. Few knew about the place. Fewer visited it for it was creepy in the eyes of people who knew. (note the awareness about other people's perceptions in a dream! isn't it beautiful?)

I disappeared into the place whenever I got the chance to, sometimes bunking classes and tests. There was something mysterious about the place and something special about the books there. I also remember meeting and having a conversation with some interesting person in the book store only to watch him leave the store in a disturbing hurry.

1. is called a "nightmare" by others. 2. qualifies as a dream.

There is a guy called Sigmund Freud and a subject called psychoanalysis which you may be interested in. But note that each individual is unique and his theories may not be applicable to all, if at all applicable...

Well, well... So you have decided to tread the cautious path. Yeah, better. Atleast you will have control over what appears in your blog comments. My only suggestion would be that you delete blogs which are older by a year or so since people change and your older blogs may not reflect your current mind set, aspirations and maturity. Also, it is possible your boyfriend / husband may not like your online intrigues and fan following. Keeping the larger benefit in mind, you should not mind much about deleting older stuff… (and even some of my non-applicable comments in recent posts). It is none of my business to tell you what to do, but I have experienced enough to know that sometimes small irritants can get blown out of proportion and things go out of control in relationships. Bold girls like you who speak their mind may get into trouble in Indian culture. Wiser to give importance to reality than to something abstract online.
