Car-based Creepy-crawly and a plague-bringing panther

Tonight's dreams were really kinda creepy.

First was me driving in my car, not sure of the make/model. I spotted what looked like a spider crawling around in the cabin. Driving into an empty carpark with nothing around, I got out and opened all four doors to try and catch the bug. It looked more like something out of Starship Troopers, but smaller. It was definitely not a spider. I woke up and take a piss.

Next was me with a brother. We saved up enough to buy this house... along a cemetery? It was his birthday and I bought him a canoe and painted it red. I was too excited and told him of my surprise for him. Opening the door to the basement, he went down first. I noticed some carvings in Korean at the top corner of the door. "Hyung-gol" it read. I contacted an old lady who appeared almost immediately. We were outside the house. She told of what I'd released by opening the door. It was going around killing animals and causing some sort of illness. As I looked around, she disappeared. A black panther showed up beside me instead. I tried reaching out to the panther cautiously, as I woke up screaming.

Rachel and roaches in my dream

I was helping Rachel to do some photoshoot in Sentosa in my #dream earlier. I didn't drive into the island, but ended queuing for the shuttle bus out. We had a lot of bulky props and panels, including a large tripod. Seeing our odd-sized number of panels in a rather large folder of sorts, an adolescent girl in the queue was being friendly to ask if we wanted to know where we can buy an alternative for our props. I got ticked off and started raising my voice at her. She left with her friend, Rachel went to get something else while I was still in the queue. The next shuttle arrived and I boarded without Rachel. I was on a seat without a door as the bus made its route to where we parked our car some distance away.

The next scene soon after was totally irrelevant. I was back in my army camp. There was a conversation going on among some officers. I was walking past when one of them who knew me asked if I had the time for some catching up. He was unlocking the door to his bunk and as he entered, I followed. Entering, I realise he disappeared.

Third scene, I was with 2 other guys. The officer from earlier was treating another guy and myself to a meal at his place. He cooked a dish where I ate halfway. It was a delicacy made of cockroaches. I ate a bit of it but stopped when I realised the dining lamp over head had designs of roaches on it, and when I looked down at the food I had yet to eat, I saw 2 of the roaches still wriggling at their abdomen.

I woke up screaming.

brain teaser

So moments ago, I was walking in a shopping centre with Rachel in my #dream. She quizzed me with a brain teaser. "There were 2 policemen with 3 suspects in 2 interrogation rooms. One of the suspect was unattended. How was this possible?" I immediately replied that I know the answer and she was eager to find out too. And then she woke me up telling me that our Mcd breakfast has arrived.

Lamborghini for a courtesy car

Waking up this morning, I recall of a #dream involving my car being sent for servicing. The workshop was really friendly, to the extent that the owner offered a courtesy car while mine was on the vehicle lift. It wasn't just any other car he offered. The courtesy car was going to be a Lamborghini. And then when he was explaining about taking care to drive it, I woke up.

Armed with a report card... back in school?

In last night's #dream, Rachel just returned home and for some reason I told her that I needed a weapon. She promptly started reaching into various vases, containers and boxes around the house and before long she'd gathered all the parts that make up an M16. She proceeded to assemble the weapon and handed it to me, no questions asked.

This was when I transitioned walking out of this "home" into the corridor on the top floor of the technical block where my secondary school used to be. I was back inside my alma mater secondary school, yet again.

A large group of my sec 4 classmates were there. It started with me on the fourth floor of the technical block. My attire was barely fitting for our uniform in blue. 

Everyone made our way down to the carpark and assembled by our classes. We were here to get our results.

"Didn't we leave years ago?" I queried Johnny. He didn't answer.

"This is for the *final* results", Weera chipped in. 

By then, I realised I was not in reality, and decided to let go trying to get a grip on what's happening. Clearly, I was out of my mind at that moment.

Teeth and sundry

Plucked out two of my front teeth by hand; parallel-parked a car along a road side; going through old photo albums of my grandmother with my parents while seated ina pavilion at a location felt to be The Japanese Garden.

#dreams can't get any more random.

Nightmarish user

I swear I had a #dream... okay a nightmare last night, of Miss Ng who turned out to be a Decepticon, that transformed into a robotic cockroach.

An insectarium near Hard Rock Hotel in Sentosa?

So last night I was in the office at Harbourfront... in my #dream of course. And there was something about attending a function across the water at Sentosa. My colleagues went ahead and I showed up by myself at this hotel. It might have had a pool similar to the Hard Rock Hotel, but the rest of it looked nothing it.

There was a rainstorm and everyone had to seek shelter. I got slightly drenched but managed to find shelter away from the pool.

As I made my way around exploring the venue, I tried to look for the gents to wash up. The next thing I came across was some sort of an insectarium with bugs and beetles on display. It was sunny now.

The exhibition path was winding but short. As I exited, I saw a group of children being lead by an adult towards a mini train ride just outside the insectarium.

Perhaps it's time for me to visit the Gardens by the Bay?

Torre de David

Last night's #dream was located here. Tower of David @ Caracas. With my father. And we were tourists visiting a specific floor that had proper shopping outlets which was all clean and white.

Big shot in little Island

The Prime Minister of China secretly came to visit Singapore in my #dream for a major sporting event. His vehicle got towed at the stadium. Or was it the Queen of England...?

A retirement plan?

Quite literally, ‪#‎dreamt‬ about taking over a bicycle kiosk along East Coast Park, on impulse. The plan was to convert it into a small cafe. The existing owner uncle asked if we had other contingencies. We could continue renting out bicycles and additionally rent out Nerfs blasters for play on the field beside the kiosk.

Lubricant for my tank

The petrol kiosk car servicing workshop that I regularly patronise was the location of last night's #dream. It was cleaner than usual but the feel was of that place over all. The boss managed to convince me to buy a bottle of WD40 at the mini store which looked nothing like what it really is IRL and I paid for it at the cashier while my... tank was being serviced?

No really, the boss scraped some grime off of one of the metal caterpillar track segment of my flippin' tank as he spoke.

So yes, I dreamt that I bought a bottle of lubricant for my tank. Couldn't make out its model though.

Bagpipes

Bagpipes? I #dreamt of bagpipes?

Random merges of memories?

So last night I was with R on a cab in Thailand. I never really saw her, but the presence was implied. The haze was present. The driver drove on the highway beside a long stretch of beach, and as he welcomed us, he basically presented the clear blue skies to us as we drove past the end of the hazy zone. We could see for miles.

The next scene had us in some sort of a hotel room. I was looking out the window and took a random shot of the scenery outside. It was late at night. There was a bunch of shophouses. Immediately, I sent the shot via WhatsApp to a group chat of guys. Almost immediately, JWu replied with a red circle highlighting that he was in the picture just leaving his office.

Before I knew it, I was at that building he just left, and was trying to get to the carpark on higher floors. I met my sis in the lift lobby.

From the above scenes from my #dream, it is evident that the haze never really left me, JWu is permanently a slave to his job, and I'm thinking of returning to The Land of Smiles.

Creepy dogs in the snow

What kind of a dog can survive with just the nose and mouth intact, no body nor limbs, out in the snowy cold? Beats me, but that was what showed up in yesterday night's #dream. There were two of them in the knee-deep snow, and they were of a long-haired Shepherd/Collie breed. I recall how perplexed I was... and still feeling it even now.

The two dog snouts were simply lying around, very much alive with their tongues still sticking out, in the snow beside a dimly lit hut waiting for whoever stays in there to throw them a bone. And they seemed content hanging around like that, blissfully unaware they are nothing more than incomplete body parts.

Who wants to be a war game millionaire?

There was a war game scenario I #dreamt about last night. It was sort of like a NERF war, but with rubber bands. I was practically the last one standing against the opposing force. At one stage, I was apprehended and made to look at a board to answer a question. Not knowing the answer, I dreamt that I woke up to try and find a solution (but not really able to wake up)... At which point I woke up for real. So I never did figure out the answer to whatever the question was.

Overnight flight to Japan to shop for a jacket

My #dream machine had been on hiatus lately. Apparently I was crazy enough last night to decide to fly to Japan with Edvan (costs me S$500 for a return ticket, surprisingly cheap) just to source for a jacket of sorts. The location was spotted by me on Google Map and that made me decide to go, dragging him along.

The exact town/prefecture was unknown, but it was an underground stretch of shopping, with many 100-yen stores selling instant noodles. Feverishly, I tried to find what I was looking for, but sadly by the time I was done exploring all the shops there, I couldn't get what I wanted. We took a flight of stairs up to ground level and came to a traffic light. My thoughts were thinking that we came all the way with nothing to show for when we went home.

Sundry of randomness

So I just woke up from a #dream. I was at a random basketball court with my friend Will Ferrell (sorry!) who had been an asshole. A bunch of strangers decided to play dodgeball and I bitched to a few beefy guys that all he wants to do is be on the winning team while we hear him bragging about how he wasn't a loser.

The game started and was underway. A random shot hit a hornet nest and everyone ran in different directions. The hornets decided to chase after me. I ran towards a small road as the hornets tailed behind me.

As soon as I cleared the road, a semi hit the flying horde, killing most of it while I took cover. What happened next was odd. The remaining hornets who survived, flew off in a comical fashion like an injured dog. Then the camera zoomed in on a lone hornet who survived the crash, but stuck to the windscreen. Cursing and swearing at me, the poor hornet looked like he was a cast of Larva (that hilarious short animation I've been watching recently) while he was waving his little fist.

I woke up abruptly to this ending quite awake. The dream had an asshole of a celebrity, hornets chasing me and almost getting hit by a truck, but I still can't be sure if it counted as a nightmare. I haven't been dreaming for a while now, but all that subconsciousness really must have been pent up.

By his admission

This is one slightly more secretive episode. I feel that I'm unable to post it to Facebook without measured repercussions. But it will be a short one.

I dreamt that my Project Manager admitted to me about his relationship with his girlfriend. The girlfriend is a colleague in the same company.

Killer taxi chocolate haunting nightmare!!!

>_<" I think it might have been from too much Candy Crush Saga... The half eaten chocolate in my possession kept manifesting itself (half eaten still) after I try disposing it in anyway possible. This included attempts to break it up and throwing pieces of it out the window. T_T" I probably spent 5-10 minutes calming down before falling back to sleep. 

Why taxi? Because I recall it was gotten from a taxi. Just because...

My stolen car

The most ridiculous crime ever. I had a #dream that I was living with my parents back at our old house, my car was parked outside and turns out it got stolen.

I was driving around for half a day before I noticed initially that the IU was missing. Great, I wanted to make a police report. Then I realised the entire vehicle interior was different. Wonderful. I stepped out and finally was aware that I was driving a beige Toyota Corolla! The license plate number was 5527 (can't remember the alphabets).

I dialled 911 and was bawling over the phone. Next was another round of bawling to my dad over the phone. This felt like the most realistic nightmare ever.

It's nerf or no-dream

Last night's #dream was fortunately about Samuel, him hosting a Nerf event in town, enjoying himself, and me with my group of friends (don't know who) and my Swarmfire. Fortunately it wasn't about work.

Of food and work

Let's see... my #dream had my Senior PM, plus several other colleagues.

But it started with me queuing to buy food from a hawker stall. I forgot what I wanted to order while in the dream and decided to order a Lor Mai Kai (Glutinous Rice Chicken) with 2 Siew Mai's instead. The auntie told me to tell the cashier at the next stall that it was $10 when it should have been $13. Pretty sure I was getting ripped off despite the discount.

I then met up with the gang and was instructed to go check out something at "John Little". As it turns out, "John Little" was a subsidiary system under our company organisation chart.

Yup, my work's getting under my skin...

Gliding in the city... base jumping?

I almost forgot the first #dream I managed to remember for this year from waking up this morning. I was flying, well okay more of gliding. I had this suit that contained a gliding configuration. So I glided around like a flying fox. It was an urban area and I travelled around this way in surprisingly windy conditions.

The second half of my dream was unrelated and much more creepy. But that's all I recall about that part. There might have been a third episode but I can't be sure.
