I have been dreaming so much this week. In the car (I wasn't driving), in the bus, in the sofa, just anytime I fell asleep. I dreamed about a lot of stuff, even about making a crossword, but nothing worth posting, I think, even though there was a dream in which I realized I was dreaming, really weird stuff. Many of them were about my friends, mostly because I've been spending a big part of the week saying goodbye to everyone I should (and okay, also shopping). The funniest dream was about me putting money into my friend Jesus's shirt -and yes, this is a common name in Spain, I have been asked that many times-. In the dream, the money came out glowing if it was fake. Okay, it sounded funnier in my mind.
But apart from goodbye parties, jagerbombs, shopping, and eating all the yummy food I can eat before I go to Denmark, I have also been drawing a lot of weird things like this totem:
Anyway, some time ago -more than I would have liked-, my fellow blogger and good follower of this blog Nina (read her blog here), emailed me a "Weird Dream" she had, and which is one of the coolest I've ever heard of, so I had to draw it and finally, here it is!
Nina's Weird Dream
"I was in a flat (which I happened to own), on the 2nd floor of a 10 floor complex, along with one friend of mine and a very famous tall actor (I just know he is a famous actor but can't recall who). We were sitting in our balcony (which overlooks the road) enjoying a cup of tea, when suddenly we see small silvery things filling the roads completely (the road can hardly be seen). At another look we realize they are silver fishes jumping around (all in the same direction though).
I somehow think that the fishes are running for their lives from the ocean! I pull the other 2 and say we have to lock ourselves in the rooms. and through the window, we see a big beast (human like beast) killing everything in its sight. we are horrified. I say we have to relocate to some other place while the actor is adamant that we have to stay in the flat. we have a heated argument and stomp away to our rooms (all forgetting about the beast or the fishes).
Next day morning we get up and for some unknown reason, my friend and I think are climbing down the drainage pipe behind the flat. when we finally reach the front of the complex, we see a huge crack on the window leading to the actors room.
And then I woke up wondering what in Lord's name was that all about! I really should stop eating noodles for dinner".
Hope you enjoyed this post. If you have a cool dream like this, please share it here!
Hey Andre, the drawing is excellent! The fishes filling up the road are just like in my dream. The totem is great too. Thank you for posting :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha love the last sentence 'I really should stop eating noodles for dinner' :-)
DeleteIt's a great closure, and still so true! The fish took so much time, I'm really glad you like them!
DeleteI have a reoccurring dream. It is so hard to explain...I am in an old house with many rooms and floors. The very top floor and tiny room above has an old dead scary woman inside of it.
ReplyDeleteI am the only one in the home who knows she is there. She is always calling to me in my head and I can sneak peeks of her.
Nobody believes me in my dream that there is a dead woman up in the room in this home.
Same dream over and over.
Anyway...your drawing is awesome!
Hey Kym, recurrent dreams are very common. The reason I started my blog was the one with the dinosaur in it. I'd love to do a post on your comment here!
DeleteThis dream sounds really creepy but so interesting. I would love to read a post about this
DeleteI agree, Aaron! Definitely working on Kym's dream this week :)
DeleteIs the totem speak no evil, hear no evil, see no evil? Either way it's both awesome and creepy looking at the same time. I agree with you that Nina's dream is brilliant, do you also eat a noodles for dinner?... I want some crazy dreams for a change :-(
ReplyDeleteYup! I didn't feel like drawing monkeys, though xD Thanks a lot for that comment, it's my first serious attempt with watercolor :)
DeleteAnd yes, in general carbs are not a good idea before going to bed, haha! Alice went to Wonderland because she probably had too much pizza...
Your drawings are beautiful so compliment the dream.

Thanks so much Sian :)
DeleteFound your blog via better blogger network, newest follower :) LOVE LOVE your art!!! And how do you remember so much of your dreams?
ReplyDeleteThanks for following (and for the compliments!), Heather, I appreciate it so much! I force myself to remember as much as I can just as soon as I wake up, or else it just fades away instantly, but with practice it gets better :)
DeleteOkay, so the concept for this blog totally rules! I need to email you some of my dreams!
ReplyDeleteHaha! You're very welcome to do so, I might find some inspiration in them and get them published :)
DeleteI pretty much have the same dream every night. I'm in a tropical place. There are tidal waves that are always looming over the town. I can take flying leaps over buildings- which is nice because I'm always running from something.
ReplyDeleteWow, Spain to Denmark. I'm envious.
Recurrent dreams are said to often act as a reminder of something, maybe you're always running away from the same "thing"?
DeleteThanks a lot for the comment!
I found you on Better Blogger Network. Neat blog! I think this is the first dream journal blog I've come across.
ReplyDeleteHow unique!
Thanks a lot, Charlene! That's one of the best compliments a blog could have, hope to see you around again :)
