(double post?)Dream lab


PN: IdiotBox

Last night I had a dream of being a some type of superhero, but was not really good one. When I wanted to fly, I had to concentrate very hard or my altitude dropped. And that was the only power I possessed. Shortly after, I was hated by every single people in the city, and was even chased by the police. I remember trying to tell them that I am not actually a superhero, just a dude with flying ability, but people continued to harass me everywhere I go.

I was very angry and frustrated. So, I decided to leave planet earth by flying higher and higher. Because my flying skill was not very good, I was going upward rather slowly, and people on the ground kept trying to hit me with their textbooks. [For some reason, they only threw textbooks]. Going up was a bit difficult; when I was relatively high, I lost my concentration and dropped several feet again. Also, the buildings were also going up with me, so no matter how hard I tried, people from the windows could still hit me with textbooks. I don't really remember for how long I tried to "go up" but it became slightly confusing at one point because I noticed that my size was changing constantly. At one moment I was pretty small, but at one moment I was huge and knocked off few buildings.

Some time past, and finally the entire city was below my feet. I began to gain speed, and flew upward into the outer space. I felt happy and relieved until I hit my face into a wall. It felt like a gooy layer that was reflecting image of outer space. It was extremely difficult to move through the goo-like layer. After that one, I saw another layer that was reflecting the outer space. I made effort to go through about 4 goo-like layers. Again, it looked a lot of effort because for some reason, the goo-like layer wanted me to push me down. After the forth layer, I realized that I popped my head out of someone's garden. The garden was beautiful. I can't quite remember much after this point, but I recall on the "new" earth having much less dense population, and everyone spoke very little.

My grammar and spelling might not be that impressive. Sorry about that!

I think that the fact that you were some type of a superhero might mean that you either want to be a superhero or are having difficult time and want a way to overcome your problems.  The fact that you were being harassed for your gift of flying might mean that people do not understand or do not appreciate your talents.  The reason people are throwing textbooks might be a result of your anxiety about the high cost of textbooks or maybe that you feel bombarded by work.  Also it seems that you are having difficulty escaping.  The size change might symbolize something you cannot control.  The gooey layer could be translated as your struggle at CMU and the garden the success you will have with concentration and effort.  Lastly, the new earth might be a symbol for your enlightened state after attending CMU.
