Growing Up

I had this distinct fascination with Sharks and Whales along with pretty much all of marine life.

I never had a clear answer anytime someone asked me what I wanted to be when I grow up and looking back I’d like to think that growing up in a 3rd world country limited my options to the basics like Doctor, Pilot, Painter and other things. I realize now that had I known it were an option I would have set my sights clearly on marine biology. In a way I still do. I don’t think I’m smart enough but by god what I wouldn’t give to live out in the ocean and staring at whales and dolphins and sharks all day for the rest of my life…

Weird Dreams, Sunday Night World Tour

I just woke up from yet another weird dream.

I dreamed of a weird documentary thing where it showed the globe and kept zooming in on different countries upon which it shows a person living their life there. It went to different countries, The U.S., some obscure asian countries, all over the place. A running theme seemed to be that each person was rebelling against something. This girl in the U.S. wanted to get away from her parents, this guy from the Philippines faked his own death so that he wouldn’t have to go back to his folks. It was weird.

Yet Another Weird Star Wars Dream

I don’t know what planet I was on. All I know was that it was very primitive. Yoda was there and we were all trying to convince them to get out and seek shelter as horrible things are about to happen. Princess Leia and Luke were there too. I think it was a combination between the people of Naboo and James Cameron’s Na’Vi who lived there but it was very primitive, almost tribal. Yoda apparently was their leader and he did not want them to move for that was their home.

Weird Dreams Monday Night Part 1

So I just woke up and I can vaguely remember a really really weird dream. It was in two parts and the first part was sort of set in the real world.

I was in an airport, the same weird airport that presents itself in my dreams. I was with a friend and we were going to South Africa, apparently my friend Peter apparently works for a modeling agency called “11:00” whose logo is just a clock with the hands set to eleven o’clock and are based in South Africa. The agency apparently wants me to work for them as their next supermodel. Thinking that it meant big money, I agree to it.

I get there and the people say that they like my infectious personality and then tell me that they need to assign me to a personal trainer to get rid of my not so toned middle part. They take pictures of me with a white background and have me acting all cute and smiling a lot. At this point all I could think of was putting the new pictures on my facebook profile and having a certain somebody see them.

I then look at the agency’s message boards and see that the photographer did not like my pictures and tells me that “we’re going to try a different approach next time”. I’m relieved in thinking I still had a job. The next day they have me posing with other models, which I found weird. It was at this point that it made an abrupt transition to my next dream…

I Dream of a Dystopian World

I dreamed something weird last night and I can remember there were two different ones both somewhat disturbing.
