Transfiguration

So I had this one a while ago, but i just remembered about it and it really was a good one, so it needs to be blogged about.

It started off at a Jazz game. I was with my dad and we were watching having fun talking and cheering. The game was coming to the end and He started talking about wanting to cook some crazy concauction I told him i really wanted to cook it with him but that I had to go to a bridal shower. So he decided we'd go tell me mom that i was going to be late to the shower so we could go cook it and eat it.

We arrived at a little cottage looking house and i ran inside to find my mom but she was nowhere to be found, however I ran into my aunt Pam. I told her what my plan was and she got a little upset because she was hoping i would stick around to slice the bread. I told her I couldnt but to tell my mom i would be with my dad for a while. We then headed to target.

We wandered the isles for a while, got all out stuff and then ran into my mom and pam, they decided that we should all combine out stuff and put it on the family account. We took it back to the condo (my family has a condo in st george) my dad was relaxing on the couch watching TV and i thought it would be a good idea to suprise him by cooking the food without him knowing. I started to cook and i looked up to find a giant spider on the wall. I decided not to tell me dad because I didnt want him to see that i was cooking the food, but then i saw how big it was so i told him. he threw a phonebook at it and knocked it off the wall and it turned out to be a mini monkey. i took the monkey from my dad and was going to take it outside but then it transformed into my friend quinn. I thought it was so cool that he could transform into an animal, so he taught me how and my animal was a snake.

Later quinn and i were trying to kill a bad guy in our animal forms... in the middle of trying to kill him, i woke up.

Karaoke and Bartending

So my dream last night started with me showing up late for work. I worked at a Karaoke bar as a bartender. When i got there, there were two half made drinks sitting on the counter and two people waiting for them. I sprayed some whip cream in them, but the whip cream was almost gone so it just went everywhere. I heard two boys complaining about the bartender (me) not being there on time and talking about just making their own drinks, so I followed them behind the counter and told them i was the bartender, but that they could stay and make their own drinks because I really actually had no idea how to make drinks.

So they whipped out a textbook looking recipe book and started flipping through the pages when another guy showed up at the counter and told me he was a professional bar tender and that he would help me. then he said "first of all you cannot be looking at these sort of things" and he slammed shut the textbook the other boys were looking at. "or these things" he whipped out a grocery store news paper ad-thingy and started scribbling out any sort of liquid while mumbling under his breath "you cant look at milk, you cant look at orange juice, you cant look at soda pop, you cant look at water" and then he said "you just sort of, go for it. Look at all the possible combinations you have" as he pointed at a wall stocked with different flavorings "just mix them together and some of your creations will be terrible, and others will be great" and then he ordered some drink, which i had no idea what it was.... then up walked my friends Joe and Marinda. They ordered a couple virgin drinks (of course) and then Joe told me that Jer was there and that he would be singing next. So Jer got up to sing, and that is when i woke up.

February 4th 2010 - sacrament skewed

So lately I have been having these crazy church related dreams. None of them long enough or vivid enough to really blog about, but last nights was pretty crazy.

So it started off i was at my parents house in Kaysville. I was running late for church (because I am always running late for church when I am going to my parents ward) and so my mom left and told me to just hurry up and come when I was ready. So It was 1:00, when church was about to start, and i hadn't even changed into my dress yet, so I thought I would just go in my pajamas, take my dress with me, and change when I got there. I got to church, sat down (still in my pajamas) and my grandma was there and so i started talking to her for a minute but the sacrament was about to start so I told her I would finish telling her my story after sacrament. So they started saying the prayer and at the end of the prayer the doors opened, and in came people pushing carts of food. I asked me mom what was going on and she said that on occasion that the sacrament was catered with desserts instead of just normal bread. I was getting really mad because that wasnt how sacrament was suppose to be done but no one was listening to me. The deacons continued to pass out the desserts to people and they seemed to know what everyone liked. They skipped our row because my sister and I were new and they didnt know what we liked. So i was sitting there trying to think about the stuff you should be thinking about during the sacrament, but was so distracted by everything going on around me, and in walks president monson, the first presidency, and the 12 apostles. The crowd got so loud and everyone started taking pictures... it was like the paparazzi went off in the church. That was when i realized i was still in my pajamas and I got really embarrassed, so i grabbed a couple pillows (because this church had them) and covered myself up until President Monson had walked past me and hadnt noticed that i was in my pajamas. that is when I realized I still hadnt taken the sacrament so I called one of the decon boys over and told him so he went and found a tupperware of cake for me to chose from, and i told him i wanted the smallest piece and he pulled out some analogy (that i cant remember) that basically told me that the smaller piece i took the less i believed in Christ. I got way mad at him for saying that and took the smallest piece i could find, then President Monson started speaking, saying that they were going to change the sacrament program and that they (the apostles) were going to sing for us... so they started to sing and they were doing westerns dances and it was crazy.

so then sacrament was over and i really wanted to go change. I grabbed my dress and headed for the door but i ran into a lady pushing a stroller, I apologized but she got really mad at me and she said "dont you know who this is? this is elias." and i said "oh thats a cool name" and she said "no this is like THE elias; The prophet Isaiah talks about him. he said that the book will come before elias and all my baby knows how to say is that the book will come before" (ok that is a whole lotta false scriptural referencing, but i think its all the stuff i have been learning in my institute class all jumbled into one reference.) so then i just looked her like she was crazy and i started to back up but i bumped into a guy carrying a light bulb and i knocked it out of his hands and it broke. I didnt stop to help him pick it up i just ran to the bathroom. I was so relieved when i got there, I changed into my dress and came out of the stall and realized that i had grabbed my dress that i havent finished sewing yet.

Then a guy came into the bathroom, yup the girls bathroom, and i started talking to him and our conversation when like this:
Me: "you shouldnt be in here, this is a girls bathroom."
Him: "I am the janitor. I can be in here if i need to be"
Me: "Oh, your the janitor. Well then i should probably tell you i broke a light bulb out in the foyer."
Him: "oh i know. I felt it. I can feel when things break. If you break an arm on a chair, my arm hurts. If you kick a leg on a couch, i feel it in my ankle. I know when things break. So i felt it when you broke that light bulb"

.... and that is when i woke up.

January 26th - Sniper photography

So, yesterday while taking a nap I had another dream. Once again, VERY vivid when i woke up. I'm not sure what causes me to remember some dreams so vividly and some i have to lay there and think for a minute about what i just saw in my head. But this was one that i couldnt forget.

It started out in the TSC parking lot. I was in the back seat of a little pick up truck (like a tacoma or an S10) and a girl from my major (Jonie) was driving the truck and she was teaching me how to successfully become a snipe photographer. I dont think this term is real, but that is what i call it. They are the photographers that you see on movies that just sit in discrete places and take pictures of you when you dont know anyone is watching. The ones that a suspicious spouse hires to have their wife or husband followed. That is what i was being trained to become.

My first target... a boy from the ward. His name is Trevor. My first counselor, brother vaughn, was the one giving me my assignments and for some reason trevor needed to be watched. So Jonie drove me around the parking lot as i was crammed in the back of this truck trying to take a photo out of the little square window in the back of the truck and i missed. I didnt get the shot. So she parked and up walked a guy to talk to us. He said that he was in the business too but his main job was to film people. He told me he had footage of Trevor and that i could buy it off of him. However i didnt have the money to buy it off of him, so i came up with a brilliant idea of breaking into his apartment and stealing it from him. So the next day i proceeded down the hill to Kampus Korner where i thought he lived. I broke into the apartment but i couldn't find the camera with the footage, so i decided to bake him some muffins and leave them there anonymously (because everyone breaks into apartments and leaves baked goods) So i made them, ate one and left. But then i realized that i left my phone that brother vaughn calls me on at the apartment, so i had to break in again and get it. When i was leaving for the second time, i opened the door and there was standing the guy that lived there. He asked me what i was doing there and i tried to explain myself without letting him know that i was trying to steal his video footage, but he was very suspicious. I rambled for what seemed like forever about how it was a hobby of mine to break into random apartments and bake and leave without them knowing who it was that made them such delicious treats. I told him that i didnt know that HE was the one that lived there. He finally let me go after a long time and i walked out of his door, shut it behind me, and that is when i woke up.

January 25th - An odd wedding

So last night i had 2 or 3 dreams that all sort of ran together. But the main one I had started off with me going to a wedding at the temple, but it didnt look like the temple it actually looked like the inside of the logan institute. I walked in and i didnt know where i was going so i asked the guy at the front desk and he told me to go to the second vookoorose room (whatever that means), which in the dream i was still confused by this so i just started walking in the direction he pointed and i found the 1st vookoorose room (i knew it was it because of the large neon sign with the name on it) so i walked all the way through that into a smaller room that looked like a cafeteria. I got a couple drinks (one diet coke and one water) and started talking to the girl next to me, she said that there was a band that was suppose to play that was really bad the last time she saw them but that she had heard they got better. So i followed her to where she was sitting, hoping i could find a seat close to her because i had come to the wedding alone but there were no seats around her. I started to look around and found an empty spot on a table and put my stuff there, but there was no chair so i went to go get a chair and when i got back a guy i knew back in elementary school (taylor) was sitting across from me. So i asked him if i could sit there and he said no and so i got up and started to walk away and he told me he was just kidding and to sit down, so i did and the band started playing and they only played one song and then they announced that they had some special guests named taylor and parker who were going to come play... so they got up along with half the audience and everyone was playing different instruments... and then out of no where parker became harry potter and was hoisted up on taylors shoulders and he was casting spells at everyone. Then while this was going on in the back ground i was talking to my friend whitney (it was whitneys little sister that was getting married) and i asked her why her husband wasnt there and her little sister showed up and she was so creepy (she has long black hair and a really round pale white face and the biggest lips ive ever seen) and she told me that the reason brett (whitneys husband) couldnt come was because he had disgraced the family and if he showed up to any family events whitneys dad had threatened to curse his whole family.

Then i think this might have been a seperate dream but all the sudden i was at the davis high seminary building that had been turned into a planetarium during the summer to make money and i went in and they were having a design conference and we were suppose to be designing flash websites and i got mad because i really wanted to use their big screen to design my site on, but it was being used. So we (my my little sister caitlin and parker) went in and sat down and as soon as we did the announcer got up and said that the conference was over and that the senior citizens were coming in for their conference and we stayed for that too and it was the same things except the old people didnt know how to use a computer so they had to hand design everything and thurn in photocopies of their designs, once they turned them in they all pulled out their bingo cards and started playing bingo..... and thats when i woke up.

January 20, 2010 - Secret Agent, Sort of...

So last nights dream started on a cruise ship, where i was with my family hanging out doing fun things and I met a boy. He was tall had blonde hair and had a blue and white stripped hoodie on (we'll call him john). We started talking and he told me how he wanted to take me on a date to this store on the island where you pay a dollar and you can take one thing out of the store. So we got to the island and we headed to this store and he payed my dollar ( what a gentleman ) and i couldnt decide what to take. The store looked like a mix between the DI and target. They had a whole lot of new stuff but then there was alot of older antique looking things. First i started looking at the board games but there was a sign that said 1$ x 16... so really i would have to pay 16 dollars for a game. So then i looked at some books and i realized that i still had to decide what to do my magazine layout on for school, so i thought it would be a good idea to get a magazine and start looking for ideas that way... so i was walking over to the magazines and there was a guy that the sales associates were yelling at because he stood on a chair to get something off the top shelf but he broke the chair and he didnt want to pay an extra dollar to take the chair. So i looked at the magazines for a while but they didnt have the one that i wanted, so John took me over to the language books because i wanted to learn Portuguese for when i go to brazil but they didnt have any good ones, and then we saw that there was a video game that was on, but no one was playing it and John got way excited because he hadnt seen that particular game forever... and the level that it was sitting on was the hardest to beat because you are a monkey that is swimming through the ocean and you are trying to get to an island but you have to touch land every once and a while or else you will drown, but there are also evil monkeys chasing you. and the water levels raise and lower. So when they rise, they hide the land and the docks, but when they lower the land and docks are revealed. So, you have to know where to stop when the water levels lower so you are standing on the dock, that way, the evil monkeys cant get you... so he started playing and we got sucked into the game and it was him and i swimming to the island and then it flashed back to the cruise ship where there was this evil lady named victoria and she was talking to a guy about an evil plot where she wanted to do something crazy to all the native people (kind of like the salem which trials but different) but she told him she didnt really know how to do it, but she thought i did. She saw me leaving with John earlier that day so she came up with an evil plan to tell my family and my boyfriend (apparently i had one) that john had taken me to that store and bought me a pink washcloth so they would tell her where i was going (dont ask me why that would work) So my boyfriend got really mad that i had gone with him and he told her that i was going to the island. So then it flashed back to me and john and we got to the island before the evil monkeys got us and we went inside this cathedral and he told me the story about the cathedral.. it was built to conceal the documents that a guy had written a long time ago when the witch trials really happened, because he was the cause of them and he had written down how he went about starting them.... and john wanted to find them so that victoria couldnt get them and use them.. so he was looking around and he found an air shaft that we had to climb up and he started freaking out because someone else had been there and i asked him how he knew that, and he pointed at these 4 holes that were plugged up by tootsie rolls and one of the tootsie rolls had been eaten and the wrapper was put back to plug up the hole. Then he pulled out the other 4 tootsie rolls and the walls started to move into a carving in the wall and when it was done he pointed at it and said that it was just a replica, and that we had to find the real sculpture and behind it we would find the documents. I got way excited because i had taken art history and studied this particular sculpture and i knew that it was by the baseboard on one end of the cathedral, so we started looking all around for it and when we found it we kicked it in, and it opened up into a secret room that was full of all these old filing cabinets full of documents. So we went down there and were looking at them when we heard victoria come into the cathedral, and she found us and was going to take us to court for trespassing ... and that is when i woke up.

January 13, 2010. Dreaming of Toast

So, my roommate every morning asks me... did you have another one of your crazy dreams last night? More often than not i can say yes, So this morning we decided that i need to keep a dream journal. Since i type much faster than i write, i have decided that a dream Blog is a better way to go about doing it. My first post is a dream i had about a week ago, that i already posted on my other blog, but its a good one. (I had a crazy one last night too that i will be writing about sometime today) So read away:

Ok, so it started off at my house in kaysville, and i was really craving a piece of toast but we didnt have any bread. So i went to the U's campus.. cause of course that is where you find bread for toast. I got up there and realized that I wasnt a student and that i didnt have an ID card to get into the cafeteria, so i went in anyways and the guard wasnt at the front desk (because again... of course cafeterias have guards) so i snuck in and got my toast and i sat down and went to butter it and they were out of butter, so went up the stairs and couldnt find any butter but the guard had seen me so i went back down stairs and was digging frantically through a bowl of single serving sized things of jelly, and creamers, and everything but butter, until the guard finally caught up with me and was like "come with me" so i did and he walked me back to the table that i left my toast and it had fallen off the table and the plate had cracked and made a bigger mess than toast ever would make. He got really mad at me and kicked me out of the cafeteria without my toast. So i was walking back to my car and I ran into my friend courtney and she was waving at me, but i didnt think she was waving at me so i turned around and her sister elise was behind me. and then her other sister brooke showed up and we were all talking and they had all transfered down to the U for school because it was a better campus, and that is when we saw the new 'building' that made campus what it was... and it ended up being a car wash where if you went through it you got a crazy robe to keep. and we thought it was so cool, so we were going to take my car through it, but when we got to my car there was one of the robes sitting on my front seat with a note that said something weird like "I knew that you would like one of these, it took me a long time to figure out where you would be today, but i ahve been working on it for a month since we became facebook friends" WEIRD.... and that is when i woke up....
