recurring dreams

19 March 2007 One Comment

have you guys ever had the same dreams that come to you once in a while? people say that dreams are just a sandbox for your brain to play in, but when a particular theme keeps repeating over and over again, surely there’s some real-life events that trigger them, no?

of course, there are scientific evidences that say your dreams are a manifestation from whatever experiences you have in your life. but let’s keep those things for Freudians to analyze. we mortals can’t even comprehend everyday menial things that happens, much less something as abstract as dreams.

a particular scene that keeps recurring to me goes like this:

i’m in my room back in my student days in UK, and i had to come back to malaysia in a few hours/days, but i still haven’t packed up my stuffs and my room is still completely full of my belongings. not just clothes and whatever that can be packed into luggages, but the stuffs comprise of large items like my PC, guitars, hifi equipments and the sorts. in my dream, i can fully understand the fact that i don’t have time to pack everything, and time is running out fast. still, like in real life, i keep on procrastinating.

there are also variations of the same dream. one of them involves me in my previous boarding school in the backwaters of Perak. i’ve finished my SPM exams and it’s time to leave the school for the final time. same thing here… nothing packed, no time left.

what does it all mean? do i have to find some shrink to explain my dreams? i dunno… maybe there’s no meaning at all.

or maybe my brain’s telling me to get on my ass and finish up whatever tasks i have and don’t procrastinate. but if i do that, i’d have to find a new name for this blog. after that i’ll sit on my ass with the same blog name. and i’ll keep having the same dreams again…

    sounds like a classic anxiety dream

    and as with all dreams, the dreamer holds the key and your analysis sounds like it fits

    stop blogging and get those chores done (not to self as well :-D)
