I've had a lot of bizarre dreams lately. I'm not sure why. Unfortunately, the only one I remember was the one with my family stranded in North Korea and me trying desperately to get them out from the other side of the Freedom Bridge in the DMZ. 
That's the last time I watch CNN right before I go to sleep!!

Salvador Dali lived in fear of being castrated by lions. Have you ever looked up the lions in a "dream book" (just for a laugh.) |

I had a dream last night that I finished my teaching contract and went home to join the navy. Emmediately after joining up, they send me to Korea for training. We spend some time standing in line doing half-arsed marching drills, then they give us our uniforms and tell us that General Lee will be coming around shortly to give us new recruits a little speech. With time to kill, I wander along the murky pier by the navy base. I go up to a food stand to get some grub, and whattayaknow! I run into General Lee himself, a korean version of Captain Nemo from the original 20,000 leages under the sea movie. He's even wearing the same navy blue coat and the same hairdo. Determined to give off a good first impression, I greet him with "an-yong haseyo." The foodstand ajummah gasps. General Lee looks delighted that I speak korean, and says "an-yong. Where are you from?" I answer "Montreal." He looks confused. I say "MON-TREH-AAL!" He looks less confused. He asks "Is that prefecture or city?" I say "City." He says "OK" but still looks dumfounded. I walk away disapointed, and come across a full length mirror. I look at myself, in my sailor's outfit, and only then notice that I haven't shaved in over a week. THE END
and that's the first dream I've ever had with any korean spoken. |
Right on. Perhaps you should have told him you were from Canada? Or sorry, perhaps Quebec? Anyway, I loved hearing about your grandiose dream, you ill-shaven scallywag. |

Christians believe that the lion represents Jesus who is called the Lion of Judah, and he is not tame. That's one interpretation. Maybe He's hunting you.  |

I've always wondered if people who watch TV or movies a lot have different dreams than those who don't...or if people who read a lot have different dreams than people who don't...
I watch virtually no TV or movies...but I read a lot. When I DO watch TV or see a movie, I find my dreams are much different....
Anyone else? |

Prior to and shortly after 9/11/2001, I used to have dreams of standing somewhere random and hearing low flying aircraft then watching as the aircraft touched down in a urban area decimating city blocks. Sometimes it would be in the forest and I would see it mow down trees. When I saw the footage of the Twin Towers it freaked me out quite a bit.
I found that two weeks after I first came to Korea, I was having super lucid dreams. In the dream, I would be back in Portland telling people that I work in Korea and they would ask why I'm here. Then the bar would morph into something other wordly. |

I have recurring dreams (many over a ten or so year time span) about a place in the Atlantic Ocean off Hutchinson Island, Florida. The location is about a half-mile off shore and in about sixty feet of water. There is a shipwreck on the ocean��s bottom there and sometimes in my dream I scuba dive the site, other times I free dive it. But it��s a magical wreck dive and I can always find it in my dream. I��m always diving from an anchored boat about fifty feet or so east of the site, sometimes alone, sometimes with others.
I have never actually done a dive anywhere within several miles of the area, but in real life I could find it in a heartbeat, the dream location, that is.
One night I dreamt about a girl I hadn��t seen in many years. In the dream her and I share an innocent kiss. The next day (I swear) she called and asked if I wanted to go to a Miami Dolphin game with her and her husband as they had season tickets and a free spot for the Monday night game. I said sure and we met near the turnpike that evening. I jumped into the backseat of their car. She leaned over the front seat and greeted me with a kiss.
I do a lot of really complicated math in my dreams.
I��ve always had dreams of flying and being able to breathe underwater. These are the most vivid dreams and share the necessity of concentration. In the flying dreams I lose altitude in direct proportion that I lose concentration and likewise in the underwater breathing dreams.
I enjoy seeing my grandmother in my dreams. She passed away several yeas ago but makes cameo appearances in my dreams and it��s always a delight.
I never dreamed I would be living in Korea. |

Same here. But my concentration has to be combined with a straining/holding breath sorta thing. And then I never really "fly", but glide over rooftops and such a la "crouching tiger hidden dragon". Funny thing is, I used to have these dreams way before that movie or any other "gliding" movie came out.
I used to have a lot of dreams that would change storylines/characters/locations seemingly every few seconds, and would kinda be incoherent. But lately my dreams are very ordered and linear, sometimes drawn out plots with beginning, middle and end. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I watch movies more often than 30min tv programs. |
