This was a somewhat confusing dream that I can not remember properly so expect errors and for things to be out-of-order and for things to be missing, all that I can remember of this dream is that my main focus in the dream was trying to find a new CPU fan for my laptop because last night in the real world I found out that it was no longer working so my laptop was getting very hot and running very slow, and so this dream was a strange journey with many distractions along the way.
I am not sure if I got to walk outside or not but I think that the dream took place during the day and I remember walking through house-like buildings, prisons, secret research labs, and more during my journey to find a CPU fan; and I met one or more sets of young women or women with whitish colored skin with long hair in similar but slightly different situations during different parts of the dream.
All that I can remember of this dream is that I was not in the dream, there were two boys (teenagers) with whitish colored skin with one with yellowish colored hair and one with dark-colored hair who were friends playing outside during they day looking for adventure not far from a shopping center in a fictional city, and they seemed to like the outdoors and adventuring without adult supervision.
One of the boys mentioned a very small island that was not far away and he told the story of a man who went to that island, the man got a serious leg injury and he was stranded on the island, but he made it back to the city eventually; he almost died, but he survived.
The two boys decided that they would sail to this island in a small wooden boat to explore it and maybe spend the night, so they sailed/rowed there in their small wooden boat, and it was a very nice day and the mood of the dream was very positive and adventurous like a modern-day Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.
They reached the island which was very small and it did not have much land, it was actually several small land spots/islands and some reeds/grass/whatever, and you could see the city because it was not far away; and they walked on the largest island/piece of land, and then they started wrestling against each other for fun.
One of the boys put the other boy in a submission hold on the ground where he was bending his body/back backward in the opposite direction while rolling him into a ball, the boy gave up but the other boy would not let go of the submission hold, and he kept applying pressure and rolling his body and arms; and the other boy kept begging for him to let him go in pain, and the boy kept crying: “I can’t charge!” (which I assumed to mean that he could not breathe, but I was not sure what that meant).
The boy was crying in pain and begging and saying I can’t charge but the other boy would not let go, he seemed to be enjoying the pain of the other boy, I got so tired/angry/annoyed/worried after seeing/watching this that I entered the dream to stop this (it was terrible watching this, and the mood of the dream was now negative); but me rushing to enter the dream world caused the dream to become unstable and it collapsed, and then I woke up.
The process of entering the dream was interesting, suddenly it was like I was in a small black room of nothingness where I could see myself, in front of me was the dream world behind a wall/layer/barrier and I could see them but they could not see me; and I pushed my body through this layer like climbing through a bubble or a thick layer at the top of water/liquid, and I pulled myself through the layer almost like if someone were to climb through the screen of a television.
Dream 2
This dream took place over a period of time (days, maybe weeks) inside a windowless building that was a school and mall-like place that had businesses (buffets, restaurants, store, a casino-like place, et cetera), and you reached various areas by walking down various halls; and I spent a lot of the dream in the school area going to different classes, and going to my locker which was in various locker rooms on different days.
The lockers were in locker rooms with some being for men, some for women, and maybe some were for both; and these locker rooms were also bathrooms, changing rooms, shower rooms, et cetera; and I kept having a hard time finding my locker, some of my classes, et cetera because I things would change and I would lose my school schedule.
Each day things changed where some locker rooms would be closed for remodeling, some closed permanently, and some partly closed; and so the locations of our lockers would change and probably our locker numbers, and so I spent a lot of time searching for my locker and classes.
I remember entering various locker rooms as people changed clothes, got their school supplies, et cetera so I talked with various former classmates of mine during the dream like my former male classmate SS (not MS’s brother); and at some point in the dream I remember exploring the stores/businesses/halls/et cetera, maybe school was over or I gave up, I can not remember.
There were some buffets that I looked at, the nicest buffet was in a casino-like place in a VIP area where celebrities and rich people and their security and family and friends spent a lot of time, and in this area I saw people like Jay Z, Kanye West, Sean Combs (P. Diddy), et cetera; and I possibly ate at a buffet but I can not remember, I do remember needing to urinate, and so I went to the bathroom several times during the dream but I still felt like I needed to urinate (in the real world I needed to urinate, when I woke up, I finally was able to use the bathroom for real).
Something strange happened that I can not remember as I explored, somehow I got superpowers during this forgotten part of the dream, and I became more powerful and I got better at using my superpowers as time passed/past and as I explored my superpowers more.
A person or entity found whatever it was that gave me superpowers, this gave this person superpowers as well, and for some unknown reason this person when around searching for me wanting to fight and/or kill me; and so I remember constantly moving around to avoid them, and at some point I hid in the casino-like buffet area with the celebrities/their friends and family and security/et cetera.
I remember Kanye West, Jay Z, and some of the others giving me some of the food that they did not want and I remember thanking them; and I ate the food as we talked, maybe they knew about my situation but I can not remember, and I remember not wanting to put them in danger so I left at some point.
I was more powerful than the person looking for me but I kept avoiding them, I probably wanted to avoid unnecessary violence or something like that, but I started worry that they would become powerful enough to defeat me eventually; and so I needed to face them eventually, I hoped to resolve things peacefully, but I needed to prepare for the worst and so I probably kept moving while trying to train and prepare myself but I woke up.
Dream 3
All that I can remember of this dream is that I was playing a video game that somewhat reminded me of a combination of a Saints Row game, a Grand Theft Auto game, and something else; and I think that the video game world was mostly dark like it was evening or night, like in Saints Row IV virtual/simulated world/whatever, and my character in the video game had superpowers like I had in the second dream.
It is possible that I still had my superpowers from the second dream, I remember my video game character flying and jumping very high and running very fast, and I remember him exploring a dock-like area by water at some point; and I remember some of my brothers asking me if this video game was the game where you have to collect rings, I did not know what video game they were talking about, but they all commented that this video game reminded them of that video game where you had to collect rings.
For some reason I remember a location during the day at what seemed to be the C Elementary School or a place like it, maybe this is where my family and I were living, and maybe this is where I was playing the video game from but I can not remember; and that is all that I can remember of this dream.
Once again I seriously do not feel like typing my dreams from last night (I feel like quitting blogging) and so I will try to not waste much time typing part of two long and detailed dreams that I had last night, and both dreams took place mostly at a slightly fictional version of W Park in the city of D.
*Ultimate Lazy Overview*
The first dream was very detailed but I can not remember most of it but maybe I jogged or walked to W Park late in the evening or during the night, I remember walking around as other people walked around, and I did a lot of thinking and daydreaming about various things including probably things that happened earlier in the dream.
I remember feeling weird and maybe a bit lonely as I watched other people walking with family and friends and kids and girlfriends and boyfriends et cetera, but I was alone and at some point I got wet like maybe I fell into a river or something but I can not remember; and so I took off most of my clothes so that they could dry, and then I took off my underwear to try to dry them.
Some people were near so I found a blackish colored comforter with a reddish color around the edges to cover myself and I wrapped it around my naked body almost like a trench coat with a popped collar/the collar up, and I remember people looking at me strange; and I felt strange wearing it because I was naked underneath and I wondered if it looked a bit like a dress, and it probably looked weird and like what the members of the Akatsuki from Naruto wear.
It was time for the park to close so people were leaving and I started leaving as well but I went back to get my clothes/underwear, but then a male police officer with whitish colored skin with short yellowish colored hair came to make sure that no one else was in the park; and two other men were in the park, he caught them and arrested them, and then he arrested me.
I explained to the police officer that I was trying to get my clothes/underwear and I told him that I could prove it if he would let me show him where I left them, he agreed, and we all started to walk to where my clothes/underwear were.
One of the men was the annoying comedian-type and the police officer became so angry that he threatened us so the two men ran, and I ran because I did not want to get shot; and the police officer chased us still threatening to shoot us with his blackish colored pistol, we hid in a river under a walking bridge, but he found us and arrested us again; and he drove us near where Super A Buffet should be, but instead there was a Walmart-like store combined with a small jail in the front combined with maybe a restaurant.
There were two or more entrances to the building and the entrance on the left side had a slightly obese woman with whitish colored skin with long brownish colored hair sitting behind a table, people would sign-in for the jail and/or for something else here, and once again the police officer threatened us and the two men ran; and I ran again because I did not want to get shot, and we ran around the store as security and the police officer tried to find us.
Eventually I came across part of the jail near the second entrance/exit and there were prisoners in there wearing orangish colored prison uniforms and one of them was my female cousin TE, I said hello to her, but she walked right by me without saying anything to me or even looking at me like I did not exist; and then I escaped out of the second entrance/exit.
I decided to turn myself instead of continue running so I walked to the woman who sat at the table to explain the situation to her and to turn myself in, but I woke up.
Dream 2
The second/last dream took place during the night at W Park and there were people there walking around dressed up like they were on dates and/or an event was taking place, and I was wearing dark-colored dress pants with a tucked in maybe light-neutral colored long sleeve button dress shirt with a dark-colored belt with dark-colored dress shoes; and once again I was alone daydreaming, thinking, et cetera as I walked around the park feeling a bit weird/lonely/depressive/et cetera.
I remember thinking of a variety of things like my brother GC was going to be in a movie so he was preparing for the role, the music artist Kanye West was thinking about being in a movie (probably the same movie) and so he was possibly preparing himself as well, and I was seeing video clips of my female online contact NF from Germany having fun on mountains somewhere in Germany with a group of people.
From the video clips it seemed that NF, maybe her boyfriend C, and a group of people would meet sometimes to go have fun in the mountains near their city; and they would have a lot of fun.
I saw video clips of them walking/hiking on the mountains, driving/riding on the mountains, flying in a helicopter over the mountains, and skydiving near/from the mountains; and NF and the others looked so happy, and I was happy for her but I was not happy about my own life.
I was seeing these video clips in my mind as I thought and daydreamed, and at some point I had a daydream within the dream of me skydiving with them as they did group skydiving; and my skydiving partner was a woman with whitish colored skin with maybe brownish colored hair, and we jumped from the helicopter and we skydived into some water at the bottom of a mountain that was like a swamp.
It was evening and a bit dark and we landed near an alligator, we landed on a broken tree branch that was leaning against a tree, and we stood there holding on to the tree as my female partner sat on top of my shoulders; and the alligator was waiting at the end of the broken tree branch for us to fall and/or for us to get into the water.
Some people from the group came to save us in a small silverish colored metal boat and they ran over the alligator forcing it under water, we got into the boat, and we rowed to land as water got into our boat because it was so small and low to the ground and there were too many of us in it; and this was a bit scary because the alligator could attack us if we did not hurry.
I barely remember part of the end of the first dream which was an unusual and surprising dream in some ways, I think that near the end of the dream I was inside a house watching TV maybe, and I think that there was a TV show showing rich female socialites/celebrities like Paris Hilton / Kim Kardashian / et cetera.
At some point I think that I was talking on a telephone with a fictional female friend about that TV show and other things who then started a three-way call with her female friend, who was Kim Kardashian to my surprise, and Mrs. Kardashian mentioned that she needed help making something and her/my friend suggested that I could probably help; and she hung up the telephone leaving only Mrs. Kardashian and I on the telephone to try to force me to help her.
