Dreamer's Block


It's been a while. 

You know that feeling when you have something to tell, but you can’t remember? That’s what’s happening to me right now. Not that I haven’t dreamed, but I just can’t remember anything but a big, white blank in my head. I think it might be because all the stress I've been having lately, or a punishment from my brain for actually listening to Nicki Minaj’s “Pound the Alarm” before going to sleep, and actually liking it a bit. Of course, not in the way that I like Aerosmith, Jeff Buckley , Stone Temple Pilots or my dear Smashing Pumpkins (and, yes, I’m proud to be from the 90s generation), but in the way that I’m really craving out some good night out with some half-drunken crazy dances with my lady friends. This sentence was way too long and not well written, but sometimes verborreic days happen, where I have too many thoughts crossing my mind so I need to write fast while I hyperventilate, just like Nicki Minaj in most of her songs.

But because I want to have some crazy dream to tell you, my dear little followers and the rest of cybernetic acquaintances –that word is not easy-  that might end up here reading this chaotic article full of arrogant words, I’m going to try to put my book about dreaming and its interpretations, and try several methods that appear there, most of which have to do with emptying your mind before sleeping. I am really jealous of all those girls doing hair tutorials, make up tutorials, nail art tutorials, outfit tutorials and tutorials of all kinds that I like watching when I want to feel a bit feminine.  And I say “a bit” because I’m not interested in putting them to practice, but just to remember myself that I have a girlie side sometimes too.

Ps: Leave Star Wars alone!! It’s not geeky anymore thanks to the latest hipster trends and all those dreadful so-called “fashion addicts” who have no idea of the importance of Qui-Gonn Jinn. Let’s hope H&M won’t print out Saruman t-shirts.

Ps.II: As some of you know, this week I moved to Denmark and have been busy settling in and being with my boyfriend, who came to visit, so no new drawings this week. However, I wanted to share some pics of my new (and pretty nice) room to immortalize it before it gets messy. I hope I will go back to my normal dreaming routine soon, anyway, if my dreams keep blocked I still have some time to draw two other guest dreams I've saved in case of emergency.

Ps III: I couldn't bring my pro- camera or my color pencils, so I'll just be drawing in watercolor for some time and uploading crappy pictures. Sorry for that, but it will just have to be an "eco" blog, as Jamie would say.

  2. Hahaha I'm going to make it my blogging challenge to make the word 'Eco' mean pretty crap. In that context your watercolour totem picture the other day was definately not eco so I'm hoping the future ones will not be either 8-) and the photo's above aren't bad either. I hope you start feeling comfortable in your new bed so your dreaming returns to it's magical best if not try eating some pizza or noodles before bed ;P

    1. Oh wow, hadn't thought of noodles...maybe I can use them as a dream catalyst! (catalyzer? catalyzating?)

      And let's hope I can keep up the watercolor level at your standards!

  3. Ah!! Another Smashing Pumpkins fan!!

    Annnnnd I know the feeling, of not being able to put into words what you want to say, or remember the dreams you dream. I find that meditation helps. :) And you room- which looks so super cozy- will totally help too (because of the super coziness!)

    1. Of course! Saw them live and it's something unforgettable. Beautiful in many ways!

      Would be interesting to study how cozyness is correlated to dream frequency! Will keep you guys updated on that,after I've done my calculations haha :)

      Thanks for commenting, Dayna :)
