Dream 13.

I need to start writing these down first thing again so they are less fragmented...

People are trying to convince me to dye my hair bright colours. My bed has shards of glass in it that I'm trying to avoid. Lots of people are pushing through a tunnel with stone steps, crushing each other to let a bus past. By the sea in another country, in the water with my Mum. I tell her about how I've been there before and start trying to swim around the coast. The water is going into my mouth and down my throat and I panic as I look down and can't see the bottom (this is a real-life fear) and I try to shout to my Mum and swim back but I'm sinking because the water can't hold me. That's all I remember.

My dreams seem to nearly all be about water and tunnels/pathways.

Dream 7.

We are in a strange city where I've never been. I think I'm visiting Rachel at her Uni. She is wearing an amazing sparkling dress in silver and has lent me a jewelled aqua green jacket. There are lots of circus performers around, including men on stilts and a man with a pole and a wind up machine, they all have strange outfits and painted faces. Robert Pattinson is there, but he is extremely tall and is a mint-green fawn, he falls over and everyone laughs. Rachel scratches his furry leg. We meet Rachel's friends and go to a club.

Dream 6.

All I can remember is feverishly removing the outer layer off of cupcakes ready for them to be iced. Wait... something else happened, it's on the edge of my mind... Something to do with London and a temple like building... Weird lifts and stairs, and people I knew only in the dream, something about trying to find out who my real mother is? Oh wait and also a fight in a supermarket; you have to smother each other with your chosen vegetable, mine is cabbage and Simon and me are the only ones left, we manage to "kill" each other at the same time, everyone has given themselves a "cool" fighter name and a woman is asking us what our names are while we pay for the vegetables at the checkout, Simon says my name is "Soul".

I also remember something to do with Rachel and other friends all sitting down on this ledge at school, and they have bags of pills and powder so we can all kill ourselves because everyone is unhappy. I am scared though and don't want to do it. The pills are valium so that we wont be scared to jump off the ledge together. I realise I am happy, (I think the temple like building is a library at the school?) as I am walking round the building with Simon. He doesn't want to die either.

Dream 5.

I am in a huge shopping centre kind of building. There is a band playing in this room and I am watching. It is very cramped and there is a ginger cat there that keeps scratching me, so I escape. Outside I see some girls that I used to go to school with. Now I am inside another room but this time it is a club. A girl called Sarah that I used to be friends with asks me if I want a free DVD. I'm hesitant as it is stolen but she pushes it into my hands. It is a DVD of "5 Centimeters per Second". Our foundation student teacher Ben is there, behind a desk and sees me take the DVD. He tells us off and is really disappointed, writing down our names he tells us to discuss what we've done. I tell him I only took it because it was already stolen.

I am with my sister and we both have 15 minutes to get ready to go out.I am looking through my washing and there is lots of stuff that doesn't belong to me. I guess it is my sister's and get annoyed that my mum has bought her lots of new stuff. I count up the prices on the tags and realise there is a dress that used to be mine when I was little but was altered to fit my sister. It is floral. I go down to the kitchen and she is eating my pasta, so I tell her not to. She follows me upstairs and sees the dress and screams "give that back, that's my sweet 16!". We both still have to get ready and I wear jeans over my tights (?).

*This dream is strange because 1) it focuses mainly on having material possessions and lately I haven't thought that much about buying things etc. and 2) when I awoke from this dream my sister had left me a message asking if I still had one of her dresses with me at uni. Weird.

Dream 4.

We are in a room with a swimming pool, it is dark but the water creates reflections on the walls. Rachel is getting a tattoo done by this guy at a desk and he gives her a price and tattoos her. It is amazing and we say how it is really good value compared to someone else's tattoo.

A different swimming pool this time, yet it is still dark. This time I am in the pool and so are many people. I can't leave because I haven't solved a math question, I have to find the centre point between two objects but the centre point has a name and I don't know it. A boy comes over and solves the puzzle for me (it is something to do with biscuits and the centre point is a long word beginning with 'P'). He tells me he is hiding because he is only 14. Now the puzzle has been solved I am allowed to leave and I leave my swimming costume behind by accident.

In a car we are going to find someone, another part of the puzzle, and we end up at a kebab shop. The person we want is there. I am hugging three people as though they were my family.

I got into a small restaurant alone, the waiter hands we a gold menu and says it will be about £140 for one to dine. I walk down and am surprised to see some of my friends there. I try to order but the waiter has given me the wrong menu.

Walking down a road with a man I don't know, to a house I've never been in. There are lots of children playing in the street. We get into the house, it is dark, again. Ashley is there with a woman.

Dream 3.

All I can remember is frying eggs, with really huge yolks. Makes sense because Rachel gave me an egg last night and we talking about getting chickens.

Dream 2.

Somebody is helping me fold clothes and look through all these bags and things that are in boxes. One purse is yellow with patches on the bottom with writing on, Patrick says I have to erase the writing because the purse is French.

Sitting at the edge of the promenade, a penguin comes over and everyone is really excited to see it as nobody has seen a real penguin before. Then we are all sitting on a huge sofa in the sand. There are lots of objects around and the sofa is piled high with stuff to move into a new house. Somebody screams because there is a giant stag standing behind us and everyone is scared because it is dangerous. We all push the sofa to the new house and it moves really fast. I have my eyes closed as we crash through a wall with ease.

The dream is now being viewed like a video game as the sofa is guided round to the front door and we make it safely inside. Suddenly I am crawling with two others through a crowd of cartoonish people dressed in togas. A man gets angry because we pushed to the front to see "her". There is a woman lying on her side in a red dress with black hair. One of the men realises we shouldn't be here because a rash appears on our faces.

Dream 1.

I have found a carved nail shaped magnet on the floor. The surroundings are like my old classroom. Dan is standing by the window and I ask him something.

In my garden at home; there is a pond where the bins usually are and my mum is trapped because her boot is stuck in a rock. There is a bird trapped in her boot. I get her out of the pond and run to tell dad (who is working at the back of the garden) that there is a bird and it is going to die. The bird is a woodpecker but I accidentally tell him it is a wren (one of his favourite birds) and he starts running. I correct myself then my sister comes outside and says somebody is on the phone for dad.

He takes the call and it is too late for the bird.
