The awesome nap

I read a online comic called white ninja and it makes me laugh all the time. The creators and I have a very similar sense of humour and I found this in the archives. It made me chuckle.

Brilliant Dreams?

In my search for the meaning of dreams, I have came across some strange websites. The best one I have found is definitely www.brilliantdreams.com

I was browsing the site, viewing a few meanings and explanations of why we dream when I came across a page called brilliant dreams! Intrigued, I looked further only to find that the website supplies pills to those who want more vivid and exciting dreams.

I was shocked! I know that many people can not remember their dreams but to take medication to help this is absurd!

According to the website, these brilliant dream pills:

Improve dream habits for more restful and beneficial sleep
Make dreams more vivid and clear
Promotes lucid dreaming
Improves dream recall
Increases REM sleep
Promotes the dream phase which is shown to improve memory and improve one's sense of well being

If that's not going to make you buy them, here are some of the testimonials of the owners of the brilliant dream pills-

"I'm sure you guys have received mucho letters praising "Brilliant Dreams" to the hilt, so I don't want to overwhelm you with yet another cool dream. Suffice it to say that I am having them. ...now I have vivid, clear dreams every single night! They're not all lucid - some are - but just the fun of being in a parallel reality is mind blowing. Not just the "fun" aspect, I believe that some real personal growth is possible."
Raj from Illinois

And I don't know what this woman has been taking but read this:

"Brilliant Dreams has definitely made it easier remember my dreams. ...my husband complained that I was having too much fun in my sleep!!
Now he's taking Brilliant Dreams too!" Jennifer from California

So who is going to buy some then, only £20?

Video Bar

I finally worked out how to add a video bar to my blog. I added a few words such as sleep, dreams etc so that the feed would be relevant to the blog content. I hadn't really took mush notice to some of the videos to be honest but I had my headphones in one day at university and like Natalie (haha) was finding time to avoid doing work. I clicked on the above clip and thought it was genius.

The american company Comcast must have seen this by now and the fact that it has been viewed over a million times, they may have had some trouble afterwards retaining custom! Bless the man, he must have been shattered!

I wonder what he was dreaming about...what do you think?

Olives and suicidal eggs?

I have been having very weird dreams about Cadbury's cream eggs lately. I think it is with all the Easter hype and those crazy adverts in which suicidal eggs take their lives. It doesn't help when my grandma gave me 24 cream eggs for eater...full size too. I don't even like them, but I did still ate them. They all start off with my friends and me at a theme park. All the rides are made of egg shells (chocolate ones of course) and we are heading towards a sling shot. I am finding the whole experience a little daunting but my friends all seem to find the fair ground scary music amusing. Eggs are catapulting themselves downwards into the ground and people are cheering when they splat. My so called mates decide that I should follow suit and see how much I splat. I am not happy about the situation and I feel rather upset that me friends want to see my insides on the floor. Anyway, for some reason I decided to take up the task and I step into the seat. Ride owner...who is a really dirty looking cream egg straps me in and I say my final words. Cream egg man presses the button and instead of me splatting into the ground, I find myself gunged with the inside of a cream egg and my friends have all become olives. Now I am as confused as you, olives? The only way I can explain this is my regular occurring compulsion to buy olives on mass, I crave them dearly and I must have had an urge during my much needed beauty sleep!



In the dream dictionary, it says that to see or eat olives, symbolizes contentment and faithful friends. It also refers to immortality.

Well thats not that bad!

Peace is sweet?!

I went to see the Corteeners last night and me and my fella went out for a meal before hand as we have to try and be civilised now and again to make up for our lack of maturity. Any way, the Corteeners where playing at Newcastle University and it was a really good night. That night, even though slightly intoxicated, I dreamt of giant badges stuck on all of my clothes. I remember getting ready in my dream and I couldn't move as I was pinned against the wall by this monster badge saying 'Peace is sweet man!' I was like, OK but you are keeping me captive against my own will. The badge then replied: “I can if I want, it's a free world.” Not only did the contradictory phrase annoy me, I realised that the badge was getting stuck into my pistachio nuts that were neatly placed on the side counter. Damm that badge, the messy, metal nuisance.

I found in a web dream dictionary, to see nuts in your dream, signifies craziness or confusion. It may also refer to someone who is "nuts" or someone who is driving you crazy. You may be approaching a waking situation all wrong and need to look at it from a different perspective. You may also be trying to get to the core of a matter or situation.

Well that does relate to me, so I think the dream dictionary is right this time! Here are some nuts for you to drool at



And here are the Corteeners

Letter Living

I was at the launch of a new campaign for Young Enterprise North east when on wrok experience. Yeah Yeah, It sounds boring but I was rather visual so I knew there was going to be some exciting things to dream about. The main hook of the campaign was the ten foot 'One Day' letters that will be touring the North east to explain the new campaign. Well, that night I dreamt these humongous yellow letters where my house. Yes, I lived in a word. Hard to visualise I know, but living in a letter was rather good. I have been house hunting lately so this may have had an effect on the dream material but I never realised how good letter living would be. The letter A was my favourite as it had a roof and sturdy sides. The letter 'O' was the worst as it had a leaky roof and smelt of damp.


I wish I lived in a shoe like this

Something Fishy?

I have started to notice a very strong correlation between reality and my dreams! This scares me a little as if I see something during the day I almost certainly dream of it later. Today I was on the bus and I saw a man with a massive fish in a wheel barrow. To my surprise I was not dreaming and this was reality. Sure enough, when I went to sleep later I found myself inside the fish. I am a little weary of fish so when I woke up in my dream to find I was stuck inside a huge cod, I screamed a little. (I can remember feeling something really slimy and cold. I didn't realise until the morning that I had fallen asleep with my bath towel on my damp, over conditioned hair (explains the slime thank god!) )The cod was the king of all cods and he was rather handsome for a fish. He swam with grace and pride with me in his mouth for ages. We went all around the world and more until he dropped me off in my Gran's bathroom. I remember feeling rather sad that our journey was over so the next day to celebrate my imagination I had fish and chips from the chippy.

Here is what I found in a dream dictionary..
To see live fish in a dream is very much good luck unless the fish was carp, in which case it is a warning against subjecting yourself by your actions to criticism. A fish swimming in clear water is an omen that you will acquire personal wealth and power. but to see a dead fish as in a market is an omen of disappointment. Cooking and eating fish, except carp, indicates your present endeavors will meet with success.

I couldn't find anything about being in a fish, I must just be a little weird?? Who would have thought.



This is my sort of fish.

Searching on You Tube...

I have been looking on You tube for something visual for my blog. I found this clip about the meaning of dreams and it freaked me out a little..have a look

Snailing in the sand?

Like most people, I have a recurrent dream. Mine could be seen as a little mystifying to others and yes, myself.

In brief, in comprises of snails, sand, egg timers and a very sickly feeling. It's not the nicest of dreams as I know when I have it something terrible normally happens. Take the last time for example when my old employee sent me a letter the day after this dream demanding £530 within ten days, and the time before that my dog got ran over! What a lovely situation to be in.

It always starts off with me sitting on a beach talking to snails. The snails can speak English of course, but their mother tongue is something I haven't mastered yet. The snails are close friends and I talk about the weather, clothes and boys...the usual girl crack. Then all of a sudden, when I'm enjoying myself, downwards from the sky launches a massive old fashioned egg timer. In my state of shock I am demanded to count every grain of sand on the beach. Well of course, I know my boundaries and contest with the egg timer that the job in hand is ridiculously unfair. The egg timer had no understanding and threatens me until to get started. I'm obviously distraught at this point and ask the snails for help. The so called snail friends of mine slither away and leave me for dead. I ain't a happy and god does the egg timer know this. I go on and on and ask for a break but this slave driver of a timer is having none of it. I finely cave in and awake up often feeling very sick.

So, whet does this all mean? Do I hate snails? Are snails useless friends? and does an egg timer out there have a nasty vendetta against me? In some dream dictionary's, the seeing of sand within a dream means that life is slipping through my fingers. But others say that to see sand in a dream means to be at a loss and is indicative of famine! well who would have thought. But where does the talking snails come in to all this? Seeing snails in dreams connotes coming into contact with disagreeable people. Mmmm

Have a look at this, it freaked me out!

I've lost my virginity!

Blogging virginity of course...how dare you think of anything else!

Well it was harder than I thought to think of an idea for my blog, but after all that thinking and pondering I still had no idea what to do.

After a painstaking, hardworking, PR packed day at university I thought I would treat myself to a nap. I rather enjoy falling asleep to come dine with me in the early evening, so it was to my suprise when I awoke with the most spectacular idea (I will just tell you now that I like to big my ideas up a little if you haven't noticed) to try and divulge the context of my erratically unconventional dreams, or as my mother calls them, 'my over active emotional outbursts'.

Its a dream!(no pun intended)

So here we go...
