ice ice baby

i've been having disturbing dreams for the past month and a half/two months.
i wouldn't call them nightmares, because i don't wake up scared, but they're just not good dreams. really dark and twisted things happen.

the other night i dreamed that i was dying slowly and no one believed me. i was leaning over a sink feeling really weak and i had a really bad nosebleed. everyone thought i was just being dramatic and kept telling me that it was just a nosebleed, but i would tell them that it can't be just a nosebleed, i'd never had a nosebleed in my entire life. i was hemorrhaging inside. no one believed me. after a while, someone pulled my shirt sleeve aside and noticed my entire body was blue and bruised, because i was bleeding internally, but now it was too late to do anything about it.

nice hey? hmm.

---------------------

side note: i hate winter. it gets way too cold and makes me a hermit. this winter i wont have access to a car like i'm used to, so i'm really going to have to push myself to man up and face the cold if i don't want to kill my social life for a couple months lol. ugh. when you know that it's scientifically possible for any exposed skin to get frost bite in two minutes, and you have a 10 minute walk, and probably another 10 minute wait, for your bus....it gets really hard to leave the house.

pa pa pa peculiar

pleasantly pleased to be plagued by perplexing and peculiar dreams.

one section of my dream last night was extra strange. i think i was filming a show about Siamese twins. the Siamese twins were actually these weird creatures though. they were all under 5 feet and chubby, with tons of rolls. they looked like mystical woodland creatures or elves. they were connected by things that looked like antlers that came out of the palms of their hands and connected to their twins palms. the show chronicled a day in the life of these twins, and how they functioned without the use of their hands. i was hanging out with a set of twins, where one twin was normal but her twin was one of these creatures, except that her antlers were connected only to her own hands, but in a way that one arm was always twisted behind her. i remember she was struggling to bring her hands from behind her back over her head and it was pulling at her face and this goo was oozing out of her skin.
ick.

i wasn't scared or grossed out or anything in the dream though. it was only after, when i woke up, that i realised that my dream was really freaky.

also, i was woken up by a phone call, and you know when your dreams incorporate things going on in real life? like a phone rings in your dream, but it's actually ringing in real life? it made me wonder...how fast do dreams occur compared to normal time? my mind had time to make another character in my dream start talking on a phone, and then my phone started ringing, so i had to pick up my phone, which rang a few times in my dream, but in reality, i picked up after the first ring...

just a thought.

it's official



today is the one year mark for recording my dreams. jan 14, 2010 - jan 14, 2011.

i didn't write down EVERY dream i had, but i'd say about at least 80% of them. i've filled up 51 pages in microsoft word.
i haven't reread any of them since i started recording them and told myself that only once i hit the 1 year mark could i read 'em. so this weekend, that's exactly what i'm going to do!

tomorrow, i'll start it all over again.

the scene of broken socials

This Movie Is Broken - Trailer from Arts & Crafts on Vimeo.



i'm really excited to be seeing bss in october. i think it will be a great show.
i was reading about this movie in the paper a while ago. they filmed it in one day i believe in real time at a real outdoor bss concert. it looks neat, can't wait to see it.

also, i had another of my epicly odd dreams the other night. i was in a uni class in a big auditorium, then somehow everyone in the class had nurf guns and we were all so excited to be playing with them and we had a full out nurf gun fight and every time we got a hold of a new nurf gun we'd talk about how awesome it was and how we remembered having it in our childhood. then somehow the mood of the dream shifted and i don't really remember much of this, but there was something to do with protecting retainers and power rangers and a gummie bear army? in a dream i had last night i was wearing my night retainer thing (which i don't actually often wear, though i should because i grind/clench my teeth at night and wake up with a sore jaw more often than not) and i had broken it somehow in my sleep and was spitting out all of the pieces and it was like my teeth were all falling out, but i'm not sure if they really were or if it was just retainer bits.

i'm feeling so many things right now. i'm happy, scared, excited, nervous, worried, anxious, bored, loved, lost, and the list goes on. i've been having several really odd dreams again. in short, i shall describe three of my last several dreams i've had the past two nights.
1) i was on a hunt for hard boiled eggs, and later i found two of my friends in a closet magically making rainbows.
2) my friend and i were making each other shirts. i was deciding what to eat for breakfast. i woke up at 11:05 and was late for work.
3) i was following a friend up some stairs to a rooftop party and i had a feeling something really really bad was going to happen. once on the roof i started freaking out and crying. i had a vision of his guy telling me everything would be ok, i looked up and saw him and i got carried toward him and we hugged while i cried, but i knew we couldn't stop whatever was about to happen, but we'd get through it and figure things out together.


i don't believe that certain objects symbolize other things in dreams. i think your dreams are an odd combinations of your thoughts, feelings, and things you experience throughout your day.
1) i've been on a hard boiled egg kick lately because i need protein and don't eat much meat. it's been raining like crazy (hence the rainbows) and i hadn't seen those two guys in a while and had just looked at pictures of them.
2) i've been hanging out a lot with the girl in this dream lately and she can make her own clothes and i want to learn how. i love cereal. and i worked that day at 11.
3) the thing that was bad that was going to happen involved one of my friends who i know has been kind of down in the dumps lately and it was his birthday the other day so i was thinking about him. i've been to lots of parties lately. the guy who i went toward is someone i think is really attractive and reminds me of someone i feel really comfortable around. and i tend to have a lot of rooftop/stairwell settings in my dreams.


even though i can usually break the majority of my dreams down into sources, i still think dreams are really interesting. i think it's amazing that the mind can create these things separate from the waking mind. i do wonder if they try to warn us or tell us about things. i feel that dreams can show you feelings that you didn't know you had.
i could sit around all day and tell people my dreams and hear theirs. i think they're wonderful.

nine. it's less than ten.

if you're in/have ever been in university, you've probably had the nightmare where you realise you have an exam for a course you've completely forgot you're in and have never been so a single class. being in my summer online course feels exactly like this. only it's not a dream. it feels really odd to NEVER go to a physical class. all i do is read my text books and look things up online. i haven't had my first quiz yet, which is also online. we'll see how that goes. i'd really like to do well in this.

i haven't collected too many pictures lately. this is all i have. enjoy. i've been too much text lately, not enough pictures.










also, random side note: i'm trying to eat healthy and bike a lot lately. i had a dream the other night where someone offered me a poptart and i went to go get one but then i'm like "oh wait, no, i can't, i'm trying to eat healthy." way to go dream me!
for june: no chocolate and no starbucks. because i spend too much money on these. if i really wanted to save a bundle i'd also say no bagels....but then i'd probably starve.

hawk squawk

one thing about me is that i love dreams. i love hearing about people's dreams and telling people about my own. not everyone shares this i've realised. my family kind of teases me about it because apparently i talk about my dreams a lot. i tend to remember a lot about my dreams. i'll remember tiny details and it seems i remember the entire dream start to finish. since people don't always find dreams as interesting as i do, i've taken to keeping a log of dreams (when i feel like it/find them interesting). i haven't reread any of them yet, i started keeping track on January 14th 2010. i think i'm going to go back and read them all at the end of the year.




i only remember a teeny tidbit from my dream last night. i had a mohawk (much like the one above, except a bit longer, blonde, and slightly curly...so ok..maybe nothing like this. but look at jena malone she's pretty!), and i remember thinking i looked really cool. i think i was at a house party or something like that and there was a new boy who was at this party and we were both fairly punkish and he had a bunch of tattoos. i kept brushing my fingers through my hair.

dream team

i read somewhere that you can only have dreams about things you know. (this is what i read in a list of "facts" about dreams: In our dreams, we only see faces that we already know. Our mind is not inventing faces – in our dreams we see real faces of real people that we have seen during our life but may not know or remember. We have all seen hundreds of thousands of faces throughout our lives, so we have an endless supply of characters for our brain to utilize during our dreams.)

therefore anyone who is in your dream who you've apparently never seen in real life actually is someone you've seen in real life. your mind picked up their image even if you were unaware of it. i don't really see how this is true. why wouldn't our brains be able to create a person from scratch that we've never met or seen (consciously or unconsciously) before? artists can create people out of their imaginations and create them as an image on canvas. why couldn't we do the same in dreams. i've also seen a lot of creatures, monsters, rooms, places, things, etc. in my dreams that do not exist in real life.

just a thought.

the past three nights i've been having the strangest creepiest dreams. i've decided to keep a dream journal, see if i can figure any of them out. look for similarities.

another dream to pass the night

i was at some park or fair and met some people in a car in the parking lot. two guys (who in real life are pro skateboarders i've never met) and two girls (one is this random girl i've seen around town and the other was the girl who plays wayne's gf in wayne's world). they told me to meet up with them at the kings head later that night. i went off to get a tattoo. i went into a tat place and drew the guy what i wanted but he went to go redraw it but was having a lot of trouble with it. after about an hour he comes back with this drawing of some weird symbol made up of a dragon, a chain and a ring of fire. i told him it wasn't my style and went up to a different tattoo artist (the one i used in real life) and asked if he could do it and he said no. and the first tat guy was all concerned that i knew the other guys name. so i left and went to the kings head which was like a gigantic mall with 5 floors. i ran into the car people i met and they were eating cadbury cream eggs but only the insides of it so i ate the chocolate. then i went somewhere for a bit and when i came back it was just the boys left and we hung out.

random and boring dream. no epic battles or chase scenes this time sorry.

oh actually i remember another dream as well:


i was traveling somewhere with my sister and some people and we'd just gotten to a hotel. i had no idea where we were, i guessed fargo but we may have been somewhere in europe. either way we drove there and as soon as we got to the hotel i got distracted and left behind. i ran into these two girls i know and was chatting with them, and another person i knew came up but i couldn't remember one of the girl's names (thee two girls have been in a few of my dreams and in the dream i never remember one girl's name, even though i definitely know it in real life). when i left them i saw a bed in the hall so i just flaked out on there caz i was tired. then i felt someone else get on the bed and it was this guy ash (a model). we started making out and then other people got on the bed and were also making out and we felt weird so we got up and went into this office. he'd just been at a costume party and didn't have a shirt on but was wearing a pin on his chest. he took it out and i got grossed out, then i woke up.

again not very interesting, but that's ok. i like all dreams.

dreaming

i realize my dreams may not interest you, but they interest me so, sorry, here's mine from last night:

i was in a park on a field trip and i was cuddling with my friend on the grass and him and this guy kept snorting drugs and i some how inhaled some and was hallucinating and tripping out. everything looking multicolored and like there were heat waves everywhere. it felt really good to lay in the grass. i had my eyes closed for a bit and when i opened them my friends had left me. so i got up and wandered through the grassy field looking for people. there were tons of people all over the grass lying down in it, i think they were all on drugs too. there were this marshy really grassy bits and there were always people lying face down in them tripping out. this one little kid past me and was saying how there were worms all over the ground which freaked me out.
i decided to lie down again in the grass and i saw this girl and her friend watching me. one of the girls came up to me and started dancing around me and singing to me while playing her violin. she was trying to serenaded me. then she asked if i wanted to go on an adventure with her and her friend and i said ok. they both had elf ears. we snuck out of the park and they led me to this building and asked if i've ever been on the roof. i said no.
so we sneak into this building and are going up a bunch of flights of stairs when we're caught by some thugs (apparently we're in a gangster's head quarters). the violin girls friend takes off. the gangsters have both of us but the violin girl tells them to let me go and i run out the door down the stairs. i run into the other girl and she gets mad at me for leaving her friend. when i bring up the fact that she left first she says it doesn't matter because i made the violin girl think i loved her and would stay but then left her, so i was worse for giving her false hope. she made me feel guilty so i decided to go back and save the violin girl. i get to a floor above the roof top level (somehow this makes sense in my dream) and peak out through the door. they're hurting the violin girl and are cutting off the tip of her elf ear. i sneak down a level of stairs so i'm at roof level and open up the door to peak out but there are gangsters on the other side, i do something that accidentally make one of the gangsters shoot and kill another gangster and he tries to then shoot me. i dodge the gun then grab his hand and make him fire all the shots into the air. another gangster comes and tells me to run and he'll try to misdirect the other gangster. so i take off down the stairs pretty much jumping flight after flight.

then i woke up.

weird dream in bits and pieces:

i was at a new school and there was this girl who didn't like me and she made fun of the way i went up an escalator (there were too many people on the one going up , so i ran up the one going down). then we were all in a big assembly and i was sitting beside her ex boyfriend and she was sitting behind us. i thought this guy was a tool, but we both didn't like the girl so we decided to make her jealous by him writing on my notebook if i would be his girlfriend and i wrote yes back and made sure she'd see it. and then i was supposed to write "happy birthday joey" on his notebook to make her even more jealous. then the guy on my other side who was actually really nice and i liked him was trying to teach me something about how to make schedules or something, and i gave him my number. then later on in the dream i had a twin and we may have been the olsen twins. and we had double booked ourselves to be in two performances. the entire school was at a summer camp or something. and for one of the performances it was just me and my twin sister and we were dressed as giant squirrels (i don't remember what our act was though). but then my sister had signed us up in a drumming competition because we both slightly knew how to drum. we were in the middle of a forest by a big stage with our friends in our squirrel costumes but then realized we had only a few minutes to make it to the drumming competition so we had to run there. so we booked it and were running through the forest and the camp to get to the place. at some point my twin had to go get something so she took off in one direction and i kept going to the drum competition. when i got there one band was just finishing up and they were amazing, and then the next band came on and they again were fantastic. i realized that if my sister and i got up there we'd make a fool of ourselves so i tried to think of something we could do that would make us seem better than we were. i realized i could rap and knew all the words to biggie's party and bullshit song, but i didn't want to do that because it used the n word and i didn't want to offend anyone. then i got a psychic message from my twin saying that she found the kid from our old school who was amazing at the clarinet and was bringing him to come on stage with us.
that's all i really remember. i think we did good in the competition. i remember we had to wear these short shorts that had bedazzled words on the back, i think it said drummer.
i also remember another portion of the dream or an entirely different dream i had last night where i had called a friend of mine and we sorted a bunch of things out and both had huge news to tell the other person. when the phone call was done i went into my kitchen and was telling my parents i couldn't remember if that had actually happened or if the phone call was part of a dream.


dreams are so strange.

also. i just found out yesterday that there were 9 more days til xmas eve! that means 8 more days now! christmas snuck up on me this year! i finished most of my shopping, i just need to find my grandma something, i think i'm getting her a calendar.

Friday, December 11, 2009

i got to school at 7:45am today. my exam is not until 1pm. i came early on purpose to force myself to study. obviously it's not working lol.

the other day i had another of my strange dreams.

i was dating chris brown and i was always worried about making him mad, because i didn't want him to hit me. we had to go to my old elementary school for a dance or something and he let me drive his car there. he had some really fancy mega expensive car that went really fast. i just drove over all the fields and snow and stuff to get there and he was kind of freaking out, because he didn't want me to break his car, but apparently i was an expert driver and got us there in one piece. once there i had to go to the washroom. while in a stall i notice two little girls go into the stall next to me. one was wearing a blue shirt and one was wearing a purple shirt. then two seconds later i see two more little girls come in wearing the exact same thing. so i peak out and realise that they're are two pairs of twins. somehow we get to talking (by the way the kids are probably about 3 or 4) and they have accents and they're from ireland. they ask if i'm from london and i say no, i'm from canada. and they start crying because they say they'll miss me and they don't want to leave. then their parents come into the bathroom looking for them and ask why they're crying and i tell them it's because they'll miss me because i live in canada. then i woke up.

i had another really odd dream the other night as well, but i forget it. i was trying too hard to remember the chris brown dream apparently lol.

so today i have my modern to contemporary art history exam, we'll see how it goes. i've studying a bit, but it really depends on what she asks. her exam study guides were so confusing, i have no idea what she wants. at least she's usually an easy marker. my byzantine exam went decent yesterday i think. i'm hoping for a B, i hope i didn't get anything less. i got my huge paper back from that class which i was thinking i'd get a C on and i got an A! so that's awesome. i think i did pretty well on my psych exam i had on tuesday. i better have anyway, i did awful on my last one so i needed to make up for that. after today i just have two exam left, i have my religion exam and my asian art exam. then i'll be off for xmas break!!! blakhdsjkhd. that also means though that i'm going to be working a bunch. which is bittersweet. sucks because it's work, but it's nice because i get money from it. :P

i also still need to do 90% of my christmas shopping. i hate shopping at christmas time. way too many people.

Wednesday, November 25, 2009

i had two of the most detailed, long and random dreams last night.


dream one:
the world was being turned into vampires. i only remember parts of the dream now and can't figure out the order, but i'm gonna try my best. i had been captured and turned into a vampire by this group of other vampires and they wanted me to be a part of their renaissance family they were creating. they chose me because of my hair. i was mad because one of the girl vampires kept brushing my hair. we were waiting outside of a house while they tried to find another person to join our family. next part, i was running away from these animals that had been turned into vampires. if you were a vampire and got bit by another vampire, you would get more and more decomposed. so since animals fight with their teeth, all of these animals were rotting and one step away from becoming total mush, but they were also super vicious and trying to bite everyone so it was really scary and everyone was running and trying to kill these animals without getting bit. i remember i was in someones backyard and was sort of trapped and all these gross cats came into the yard and i kept grabbing them and trying to break them. then i ran and hopped over a fence. next part i remember is my family and i were at my grandma's house now and we were all vampires. for some reason i wanted my curling iron from my old house which was far away and in a dangerous part of town. my sister and her friend said they would go get it for me, but i didn't want them to, because i knew they could be killed because the old house was probably infested with the double bit decomposing vampires who would bite everyone. but my sister and her friend tried to show us how powerful they were by doing something with their mind powers and they almost shattered the huge window at the front of my grandmas house, but we stopped them before they could, because my grandma's house was bad vampire proof and if they broke the window we wouldn't be safe any more. so they stopped and my dad went outside to fix the cracked window and it was pouring rain outside. then i went into my grandma's room where she was writing a note. i started to read the note and it was a death note because she didn't want to live as a vampire forever so she had let a double bit vampire bite her and now she was infected and we had to get her out of the house. i started to cry and then yelled for my dad and some other guy to come and get my grandma out of the house. while they did that the rest of us locked ourselves in the dinning room so that if something happened we'd still be safe. but then my mom got really mad and her and two guys that were with us started fighting and breaking things and broke down a wall so now none of us were safe. and then i woke up.


random dream numero deuce:
i had either gone for a walk or bike ride or was in a car and ended up and this girl i know from high school's house where a car of my girl friends was unloading from a trip to the beach. we all started going into this girl's house when a bunch of guys across the street said they knew me, so i went over there and hung out with them for a bit. it was for some sort of birthday party. i'm missing a whole chunk of the dream here, but then i remember i was with five friends and we somehow decided we should all go right that second to visit our friend in sweden! (in real life i don't know anyone who lives in sweden). so then we were all on a plane, super happy that we were going to sweden. when we got there our friend picked us up in his car and we started our swedish road trip. we had to drive through a boarder and the guards were very military looking and gave us dirty looks but they let us through. we stopped at a rest stop later to get snacks and things, and i had to use the washroom and the toilet was in the center of the store right next to a bench. so as i was doing my thing i was talking to my friend who was sitting next to me on the bench. in my dream this wasn't odd at all. then my mom was with us (even though in the dream she wasn't my mom she was just one of my friends on the trip, but i still knew it was my mom) was asking me about the shirt i was wearing. i said it was an archie comic. then my dream turns cartoon mode and we see what my shirts all about, and it's an archie comic that is talking about how usa is awesome and all other countries suck. and my mom told me that that's why the guards were glaring at us, they probably thought we were american's and i should probably change my shirt because it was offensive. my underwear had the same comic on them. i realised that i'd only brought two other shirts with me and was bummed out about it. as we walked back to the car my pants were now way too big for my waist and kept falling down and showing my patriotic archie underwear and i was worried we'd all get in trouble. then, i woke up.

Friday, November 6, 2009

i just remembered a dream i had.

i was talking to someone about tattoos and they asked to see mine. i lifted up my shirt to show them my tattoos, besides the bird one i really do have, i had two more. all in a row starting at my bird and then wrapping around to my back. the first one was supposed to be of a friend of mine but he had the body of a wrestler all rippling muscles and stuff. it was done in a really really awful cartoon style. the one next to that was supposed to be that same person, but it was just their face and it was supposed to be a very realistic portrait. it looked like the mad magazine guy. then i noticed i had another tattoo beside that one! i didn't remember getting it and hadn't noticed it because it was completely on my back. it was supposed to be the same person again (no idea why i wanted all these tats of this person), but it was done so badly. the lines were all shaky and the color was blotchy. oh and it looked like a silver alien head. i started crying because i really regretted having these 3 awful/weird tattoos.

^pretty close to what my dream self's tattoos looked like...


also i had something like this tattooed by my collarbone, but this one i liked in my dream. it was some sort of monk symbol.

Sunday, October 25, 2009

i'm taking a frustration break. headaches have ensued. i think i know the gist of some of the modern and contemporary artists i'll have to write about in my exam. at least two of the questions are essay questions so i can bullshit a bit. i'm gonna keep studying tomorrow morning. my brain is bored of studying.

i had another really strange dream. a bunch of things happened, some scary things, but the only part i remember is this:
i was at some strange house in the middle of nowhere. and i wanted to get out of it. i found my friend lena and we were in the kitchen. i discovered a secret passage way that if you crawled through this cooler/cupboard you would be out of the house and right at the entrance of the forest that was a good 60ft from the house. we both crawled through and started making our way across a field to go to a play. it was raining and as we got closer to the playhouse we realised that the playhouse was tiny. we figured out that the rain made us grow really big. i lifted of the roof of the playhouse to see if we were late for the play. inside were a bunch of those little yellow marshmallow chicks. the play had started and i still wanted to go see it, so we tried to think of something very tiny we could eat to make us shrink back to normal size. then i made a crude joke (i'm not going to type it, even though i remember. i remember when i woke up thinking how witty it was lol, it still makes me smile). either way somehow we got back to normal size. that's all i remember about that part.
at some point in the dream i had a donkey named jenny (who looked like a small grey/white horse but apparently was a donkey) and we were best friends. i don't remember if she could talk or not. either way some bad person had captured her and was telling her that i left her on purpose, but then i saved her and i was hugging her face telling her how much i loved her and i was sorry that she got taken.


my dreams have been even stranger than usual lately just because i can't decode any of them!

this song reminds me of dreams and really beautiful, love depicting, epic feeling scenes from films.

dream team


(haha, as if i actually found a picture of this...)
last nights dream time adventure:

i wanted to decorate an ice cream cake. i decided i wanted to draw a giraffe on it. so i hopped into the car and took the perimeter to sobey's to buy a cake and the decoration stuff. on the way there i got a speeding ticket from a red light camera. i was really worried how i was going to pay for it since i already have one that i owe money for. after i get to sobey's i find that they don't have any ice cream cake so i start walking home. now it's a really nice hot summer day. i'm walking past a fence when this girl i have a class with recognizes me and asks if i want to hang out. so now we're suntanning and chatting in her backyard. we look up at her fence (which has one section that's about 20 feet high) and there's a turtle walking on top nearing the edge of the tall part of the fence. the turtle just keeps on walking and falls down onto the grass. we go look at it to see if it's ok. it hides in it's shell which is covered with gems. all of a sudden the turtle is really small, about the size of a large walnut. it snaps it's shell shut on our fingers so we drop it into the grass. now there's a bunch of people in her backyard and one is this guy we both know (he looks nothing like how he actually does in real life). him and i are talking about a bunch of things and he asks when i got my lip piercing, i ask him about his (in real life he doesn't have one), and then we discover that we both decided we wanted one when we were in grade 9 because one of the guys from blink 182 had it and we thought it was sexy. the backyard party is over and i realize i still need to find an ice cream cake. i start driving to DQ but then i realise all the stores are closed. i get home and my mom has already decorated an ice cream cake. it's really ugly. she just squeezed a bunch of icing tubes of orange and black icing all over it and made a mess in the kitchen. then i woke up.

weird. extra weird, when i woke up from that dream, my dad was cleaning out the freezer of leftovers and things and goes "hey look, there's a piece of ice cream cake back here!"
dun dun duuuuuuh.



also, i'm really excited about halloween and my costume. my friend lent be some combat boots to wear...the only thing is they're platform shoes and when i put them on i'm 6'2. so i don't think i'll be wearing those lol, although they really are comfy.

Friday, September 18, 2009

my dream last night brought me to an interesting conclusion. i think i made a decision i didn't know i was contemplating.


i'm working on a collage thing based off a collage i'd seen on doodlers anonymous that i posted on here a while ago. it's actually kind of exactly the same, other than word changes. either way, so far i like how it's turning out. i'll post it when i'm done.

oh the subconscious..



i was in the car with my mom and dad and we were going to check out a haunted house or something of that sort. when we got there and were sat in the waiting room waiting for our turn to go in, we realised that it was a cursed house thing, and the only way to come out alive or uncursed was to make it through the house. when we discovered this, i hoped on my dad's back and he just ran through the rooms of the house as fast as he could. upon entering each room, you would know the task at hand, such as avoid the grip/bite of the zombies, ect. my dad ran with us as fast and he could, and in the last room, something incredibly fast would chase us and we had to beat it out the doors if we wanted to survive. we made it.
we went back o the car and drove home. i asked him what would happen to my mom which we left in the waiting room, and he said we probably wouldn't see her again. she could get lost in the house forever, and when she died her body would just appear somewhere. when we got home, his hair and beard were incredibly long and he looked young. my mom was somehow at the house and her hair was long and she looked old.
we all fell asleep and when we woke up, my mom, sister and i had all been turned into half humans, half animals. my sister was a zebra, my mom i think was some sort of monkey, and i was a bird (later in the dream though, i was the zebra). we looked the same, but had markings of animals on us. like my sister had zebra stripes all over her face and body, and i had wings on my back (it looked like how some people get wing tattoos). we realised that since my sister, mom and i never completed the house, but entered it, we were cursed and turned into animal-people. my sister got really upset and tried to cover her stripes with make up, it kind of worked. i tried to tell her that we could still go out in public, we would just look like those people who tattoo themselves to look like lizards and cats and things. then we realised that people who we used to love wouldn't accept us as these animal people, and the lives we knew were pretty much over.
my family went back to the haunted house to warn people not to go in. the waiting room of the house was full and two people had just entered the rooms. we told the family in the waiting room that they were going to be cursed now and told them not to enter the rooms. they freaked out and we decided there must be another way to escape.
now it's winter outside and we're all in this big building. we see there's zombie-type people or something outside who want to kill us. we take turns holding the doors closed so they can't come in, but the cold air from outside hits our hands and depending on our animal, the start to turn to hooves (or wings, etc.) and we realize that cold weather will make us permanently turn into the animals.
there's probably about 100 of us inside the building and someone decides we're going to dig our way out. somehow we chain the doors closed and all get to work on building tunnels. after a while of digging, a huge underground tunnel system is built (the tunnels are built through snow, but didn't effect us like the cold air did). in one of the rooms off of the tunnels is a big expensive looking room that you'd see in an action movie of spy headquarters. the guy who's now kind of running the show, tells me which seat in this office thing will be mine, but says i have to go back to the main building and get cream for the coffee (he makes a big deal out of this for some reason). so i crawl through all the tunnels and go to the kitchen which is visible from the door where all the zombie people are still trying to get in. someone is guarding the door, but i know that as soon as i get the cream, the zombie people will break through the door and attack. so i quickly dig through some containers under a sink and find cupcakes and things. finally i find the cream. i'm super nervous the whole time looking for the cream, and somehow know it's all a dream, so i make myself wake up as soon as i have it so i don't have to deal like the zombies.
(sorry if there are tons of spelling mistakes, i haven't gone over it yet)

my dreams are so odd. i should write horror novels or sci-fi books based on my dreams.

(p.s: i can't help but think my dream was influenced by that video i posted yesterday that uses old people's voices coming from animals. also i bought the book shutter island that is coming out as a movie about a guy who investigates an insane asylum)
