dream, Thu 17/9/09

My parents and I were invited to some Russian conference-dinner event. Not realising it started with a film, we got there late. I went downstairs to get a free gift, then proceeded to the cinema, where there were many Eastern Europeans present. I was disappointed that the film had started as I hate (in real life) not seeing films from the beginning, if they are for serious consumption.

The cinema was old-fashioned. At first, I sat alone as I could not find my mother. Then eventually I was called over to the back where my mother was sitting with my old schoolmate CJ and our family friend Auntie Jo. CJ was all annoyed that I didn't choose to sit next to her, so I decided I'd much rather sit alone again.

I went to the opposite side of the cinema and my first love was there. His girlfriend at the time, my classmate S was there, a few seats away from him. They were arguing. I tried to pay attention to the film and C began to tease me. Deep down, I liked it, but wanted to pay attention to rest of the film, so I huffed off - again.

This time I went to the weird front rows of the cinema where it was standing-room only and there were Filipinos (I'm part Filipino) standing in troughs of water, instructed to jump up and down in it at selected times in the film. I was too short for the troughs.

We were then led to dinner in rooms. The grown-ups were in one room (Filipino families I'd grown up with in Australia) and their children in the other. I looked to join them.

It is at this point that the dream becomes some sort of weird horror film, set in Russia. A few of us exited this building we were in and I saw two people covering Casiotone For The Painfully Alone's song 'Hot Boys'. It was some sort of street concert. The street was lightly flooded. I began to run.

The dream then cut to a story where a group of females had just been sacked from a doctor's surgery. There was one person left working and a mechanised force was deployed to remove these girls. They were told they were not allowed to open any of the doors in their now former workplace - except one. One of the girls (this girl was now who I became) opened the door and saw a blonde female doctor sitting at her desk. She then picked up a violin and began to play. Her young girl patient then escaped and began to roam the streets, shredding up people in her way with her long, mechanical arms that sort of burst out of her body every now and then.

In fact, she skinned and partially stripped others' bodies of their organs in order to 'house' herself in them, use them as a host. Eventually, I was one of three such persons she did this to (as my real self, not the other 'girl') and I remember thinking "this isn't supposed to happen to me, the hero never gets killed".

Some sort of killing spree continued till I woke up.

I've forgotten them, even though elements of the dreams kept floating back up at me during the day. Sigh.

Tue 15/9/09

For some reason a workmate had written a blog and was bitching about an (imaginary, as in he doesn't have this ex in real life) ex in a horrible manner. He'd also written an entry about how him and I had gone out for dinner and mentioned me by my last name, as I had bought him dinner. I was touched because he is a good deal younger than me and often makes out at work that he's a bit too cool and awesome for everyone.

I'm back at high school and under the impression that the people I considered my friends are not my real friends. As soon as graduation is announced, I decide to skip attending the ceremony (coincidentally, I did this when I graduated at university - I was pretty unwell at the time and just opted to receive my degree by post. It is still in my room, in its cardboard tube).

Then my family decided they wanted to go out for dinner. I tried to get them to book a table but they wouldn't listen to my logic. When we got to the venue, there was this woman who was really half-octopus, half-woman and kept trying to seduce men in a particular family. Behind her ear there was a growth that gave her away as being an octopus, though upon recalling it, it sounds more alien than it does octopusish.

I pulled a tentacle - it had infinite eyes and reminded me of sea anemone.

dream, Tue 7/7/09

Dinner had been organised in my area with my mentor. For some reason my mother and brother had to hitch a ride, and then we picked up an acquaintance along Plenty Rd (a main road in the area I live in). We went to the house my mentor was staying at which was near the old bluestone church on Plenty Rd. He insisted my mother eat. He then drove off with my brother and acquaintance without my mother and myself. My brother tried to tell him to stop but to no avail.

I was running, after a long drinking session. I'd been dumped by my old housemate and some EMS friends at a bus stop after witnessing my schoolmate Cathy get attacked by a drunken primary schoolmate. I stayed to try and break up the fight, but the EMSians left me when their tram arrived. I waited for a Night Rider bus to get home instead.

I was walking with someone else and another girl on a motorbike began to chase us. The other girl wouldn't wait for me so I had to hide. I saw a utility vehicle drive past. It had a dead woman in it.

I got to somewhere like home. This girl on the motorbike found me and began to try and attack me.
