<Randomness>

Seven-Eleven, baby!

Dreams: I dreamt today for the first time in a long time. My dad was in it and we were driving in random neighborhood. My dad would grab my shoulder as some sort of blur comes at us. I sense some sort of monster. (RL: I wake up and fall asleep to have the dream start again.) I get a deja vue of the dream again, but this time, I meet up with monster instead of just seeing a blur and a feeling. My dad and I are fleeing from this monster and I put myself between this monster and I. I get a really good look at this monster and to me, it looks like a werewolf. It growls at me and I growl back at it and for some reason, I’m fending it off with what seems to be a steering wheel, (I have no clue how I got from driving a car to running…) I look at it’s face and I see a human, but then it growls again, takes a couple of swipes at me and I think it’s an animal. (I wake up after fending off the monster a couple times… and I’m thinking why is my monster so human and inhuman at the same time?)
I’m scared/disturbed and I pray to God about what this dream was about. Why did he have me wake up at 3:25 and 4:35 in the morning… I see a bit of myself in that monster. For, I am fearfully and wonderfully made. If I give in to fleshly desire, I am becoming more like an animal, taking as much as I can get from anything weaker than I. If I choose to fight the good fight, I have to fight with this monster within myself, to stay human. God keep me fighting… And yes, I do care for my dad, as much as he drives me up the wall sometimes.

My dreams are either fighting dreams or flying/floating dreams. Isn’t it interesting that I have a horrible fear of heights and falling, but I still dream of pleasantly flying/leaping without wings?

Guitar:
For anyone who has learned to play guitar. I feel your pain. Still. (2 days and counting…)

Prayers:
ZD got hit by a car. Pray for comfort, strength and speedy recovery. Why did you do that, btw?
BC finally touched the bible. Remind me to have a chat. ^_^
AB moves to NJ, new job, new place. My friend’s in your hand, Lord.
Sermons at EC are sometimes really good, sometimes barely makes an impact. Do I have listening problems?
PL is having a large gathering, time for the harvest, Lord?
FC is comming. I dunno what to say about that one…
NF is reading The Case for Christ. Open those eyes and ears, Lord!
CW is reading The Screwtape Letters. Nothing like another perspective to give us new eyes. Let my friend see the unseen!
Besides for that. I think I’m about due for another kick in the butt, been a pew-warmer for too long. I need to do something, where are you work, Lord?

EDIT: Dream 2 >>

Now this may sound strange. How about a dream of hanging onto a tiny, yet large helicopter and flying over a gigantic bridge, seeing the “roof of the world” and then jumping off the helicopter, sky-diving for a bit, narrowly avoiding becoming a stain on the ground and recover just in time to catch some falling female. Add to all this I have the singing company of some jazzy african male singer. God, what is all this weird stuff?

    I wish i can dream of flying. My dreams are always of me running away or falling endlessly down some tunnel, or I get kicked out of court while representing a client. Scary huh?

    learning how to play the guitar is worth all the pain. Imagine all the gals you’ll attract! 😉

    oh Ha256, I like what you posted on Glee’s site.. very peotic my friend. 😉

    Fishy looks familiar?  Hmmm?  I wonder why? 

    On another note…I used to think I had weird dreams!  But after reading your post, I simply have to take my hat off to you. 

    And…you’re learning how to play the guitar?  Keep on at it.  It’s a bit hard at first, but after a while, you’ll get the hang of it…I love playing the guit.  Mine’s broken…I accidentally threw my missile tube (black tube used to store rolled up paper) at it, and chipped a hole in the front of my guit. So one day when I have enough dosh, I’ll get myself a decent guitar.

    :juggle:Good Luck w/the guitar lessons there.:shock:  Also, have a wonderful weekend.

  10. i think you’re right about the dream being about the person not being secure in Christ.  that was actually my first instinct when i woke up.  then i fell back asleep and like continued the dream and me and a bunch of friends started yelling at the monster that it should eat us so the person it was eating could have another chance.  then i woke up again and was like “woooah”.  haha.  yeah thats my story!
    God Bless

  15. paget says:

    so…i c…ur a Canto-boi.  But no – i am not British.  Was born in Bermuda, then migrated to Australia.  Am a Canto-chick.  :headbanger::headbanger::headbanger:

    [sigh].  this is sad.  am starting 2 rite like my students. 

  16. paget says:

    im a canto-boi eh? ic ic… mebbe u mite wanna hang wit english-speaking ppls?

    WhooOoops.  Did I say “canto-boi”…I forgot to add “a tad bit weird” to the front of that.  tee hee hee.  Just kiddin’.  :cheekygrin:

    Hey…Did i ever tell you that I love your emoticons…especially this one: :headbanger: :headbanger: :headbanger:  It’s totally fab!!! 

    But anyway…How have you been?  I’ve been busy – first week of internship (1 have 9.5 weeks left to go).  It’s been tiring, and there’s just so much to learn…My brain is going to POP!  But apart from that, it’s been pretty good.  I’m enjoying it…so far.  I sound optimistic now…might change my mind in a few weeks, but I hope not.  I’m teaching two Year 8 classes and a Year 9 class (this class comprises of kids with ASperger’s Syndrome and Speech-Language Impariment) – they’re an interesting bunch. 

  17. what does “PTL” mean?
