I remember my dreams almost every night. Last night was a sad one so I won't post it. My favorite dreams are the ones where I know I'm in a dream and so I do what ever I want - especially with the ladies.

Anyway, this may be my own personal dream space since I've met few people who can remember their dreams almost every single night. Post 'em here, you might even learn something about yourself.

If you WANT to be a vivid dreamer I recommend Mugwort (쑥 in Korean). You can smoke it or drink it or put it in soups or just put a load of it around your pillow. You can buy it in most markets or supermarkets.

My dreams make no sense, wouldn't make for interesting reading. Only thing that really sets them apart is the fact that almost every dream I have takes place in unfamiliar places. Be it inside or outside, a school or a park, it's always somewhere I've never been. My dream world is bizarre and powerful with vast backdrops of scenery.

The most vivid dreams I have are often about a place called Dave's ESL Cafe. Where I often meet these

Last night I had to choose between sleeping next to my stinky, drunk brother or outside in my 1985 vanagon, which was freezing cold. I chose the vanagon.

I was back in the Army but I had my own personal Hummer registered in my name. I was with a couple of buddies and we were trying to figure out what to eat. There was a cute asian girl at one of the restaurants I was hitting on.

I was in Seattle and my Dad was showing me a houseboat he found for me. He said this place is great then some guy came out smoking and he cringed and said, I hate smokers.

I kept missing college classes for one reason or another. I was panicky that I would fail. Then I remembered in my dream that I had already finished college.

I have very vivid dreams and sometimes when I wake it takes me a few minutes to get my bearings. It is like ok you live in Korea, your name is... this is your house... That is because my dreams are so vivid it is hard to tell which is real this world or that world. As they say in Jacobs Ladder "our soul is afraid to let go of this world" people who are afraid to let go don't have vivid dreams. The ones of us that do let go at night come back to report it was like we were in different dimensions.

Some say our dreams are the unlived stuff from our days.

Last night I dreamed I was with all my old friends and we were playing soccer against some Koreans, on - what else - a pitch of sand. There were strange things nearby, like a stone castle or a traditional Korean village - maybe both. There were children watching the game and drinking energy drinks. It was an west meets east show down; emotions were high; but I woke up before the match ended.

I reckon words do not qualify most of my dreams..

so I met a goat playing baseball and my old teacher turned into a dinosaur and then I was in a boat with the goat...

The other night I dreamt that I was a robotic dog riding on the back of a dragon, shooting missiles out of my back at an enemy that I never actually got a clear view of. The dragon was a relative of mine in some way. I really can't even begin to analyze this. It was a western dragon, not an asian one.

Very often -- especially when I'm hot -- I'll have partially waking dreams where I think people are in my room talking to me. During these dreams I'm especially prone to sleep-talking, and I actively remember doing it, though I've been told I both sleep-talk and sleep-walk quite often, even when having other sorts of dreams.

I have uncanny predictive dreams.

If a dream is "too realistic" it almost certainly happens in reality. It occurs as sort of a dejavu like 10 seconds before the actual event occurs and I remember everything about my dream. Then I watch the events unfold and then I give myself a pat on the back for somehow dreaming about it before. Unfortunately, almost always it's a tragic thing or something of no relevance. I had 3 successive dreams of my GF cheating on me... which happened. I had a dream of the day we broke up and the setting it happened in. I've also had dreams of random things... Like this red round object bumping me in the head. When I woke up, I went to the mall and I was walking and suddenly a little kid has the balloon and it bumped in the face... it was red. Probably coincedenital. But I have a lot of dreams like that.

It's happened so many times that I've grown accustomed to accepting it as fact.

Otherwise, I have the most obscure and random dreams that have no pertinence to my daily life and border on psychedelic. Sometimes I worry if I'm on the brink of schizophrenia with some of the dreams I have. I once had the green giant come down and lecture me about the effects of allowing people to steal from me. And then we danced in clogs across the pacific and to meet the queen of the lost tissues.

I generally am not a vivid dreamer but every so often I get hit by one. The last good one I had I was sky diving with Barrack Obama. Secret service too.

Good stuff, keep them coming.

You can already see a slight pattern developing. The first dream I posted was completely on the existential side whereas some other posters have wildly abstract dreams.

I used to dream in the abstract when I was younger but not so much these days.

Keep posting and over time we'll see how individual patterns play out.
