“Everywhere” by Michelle Branch says it all… “‘Cause you’re everywhere to me. And when I close my eyes it’s you I see. You’re everything I know that makes me believe, I’m not alone…”
Yesterday morning, I woke up without the alarm. I laid in bed for about 10 minutes in snooze mode. When I finally got up to see what time it was, upon seeing the clock display I found I was just in time to see it turn to the alarm time I had set the previous night. I actually saw the time change right before the alarm went off! I still don’t know what to make of that because that’s the first time it’s happened. For a moment there it felt like I was in control of time. What a liberating and omnipotent feeling that was. I decided to get up and see what else I could do.
Coincidence aside, that night I was dreaming about some new Pocky I’d seen (one with strawberry bits and a choco-banana flavour) only for L to tell me later in the day that she saw those for the first time in the supermarket. Plus, in my dream I saw an ice-cream van and yesterday our local one made an appearance in the area for the first time this year. I don’t claim to be psychic, but sometimes it just feels so real. Maybe it’s just pure coincidence. Maybe I should start playing the national lottery, hmmm.
I’d been preparing and studying this week for the assessments and seminars I have to attend on Monday, which will last 4 days. That’s 4 whole days and I think I am getting a bit worried with the fact that I’m not really getting worried about it all. I should do because it’s a big deal and I have to do well in these to be on my way to fortune and riches (according to my mum) but I made a deal with myself when I was 16 to not go through stress like everyone else. I guess I do kind of stress in my own way but it’s not very external nor is it often. I think I’ll survive the 4 days without real worries, but who knows? It might be so bad that I could very well be checking into a clinic at the end! If it comes to that, I hope my friends visit even if it’s just to admire the buckles on my new jacket.
Last night I had what seemed like a very long dream. It wasn’t anything too extravagant and it didn’t even feel too real, but it was definitely long. Long and quite mundane. It was the first dream in a long time to be based in my area too. The last one was several years ago and it was a flying dream, where I was soaring high above the town. This time, it was just based in the immediate area in the vicinity extending only as far as the end of my street and the newsagents at the end of it. It was just a boring dream where I made a trip to the newsagents a few times throughout the day to buy chocolate and browse around. Oh, did I mention the Asian parents running the store with their good-looking daughter (who I’m sure I’d seen somewhere else before in real life)?
I was with a couple of my friends from my area and I’m not sure what was happening or why we kept visiting the store, but I got the impression it might have had something to do with being in competition to win the affections of this fair maiden who helps her parents run the store. For some reason I can’t say I was entirely attracted to her because I was there mainly just to buy chocolate and watch my friends make fools of themselves. In my dream, there was a really really large monument/art piece on the hill in the park behind the store which looked like several inter and intra-connected (Fullerene) Buckyballs arranged in concentric fashion. They were hollowed out so we could walk through them as we made our way down the hill and I think I was more in awe of that than anything else.
The only weird part was when the girl got upset at something and went into a bit of a huff, climbing into my back garden (even within the dream, I found this a strange thing to do). After a short while I convinced her to cheer up and come out and that’s where the dream ended. Weird or what? Now if such a girl moves into my area within the next week or so, or if I make multiple trips to the newsagent to buy chocolate, my psychic ability will be proven to be official. I very much doubt it, but just in case, here are my tips for the lottery: 8, 22, 27, 31, 34, 45.
