16: The frog and the 'Kikahmoche'

I'm in a swamp in the middle of a rainforest, only its all colourful and wacky (much like the cover of Mika's album, 'Life in Cartoon Motion', if u need the visual)
There's a small group of people sitting under a tree. I go up to them and ask what they're doing. They say they're using the frogs to look for the Kikahmoche (said kick-a-mosh but I made up a fancier way to spell it, hehe. If ur looking for a description, you've come to the wrong place. I have no idea what it is - pretty sure its an animal though)
Everybody gets up and takes a frog from a basket which was down by the swamp. I put my hand into the basket and get a hold of one. When I pull my hand out, I find that the frog is a bluey purple colour. I look around at everyone else, who seem to be licking their frogs (much like the scene in The Brother's Grimm) and wonder off.
I decide this is too much for me, the frog is pretty gross. I put it in a box and hold it as I walk deeper into the rainforest. My search for the Kikahmoche (I don't know how I know how to find it) leads me to a small clearing with a tree stump in the middle. In contrast to my original setting, this one is all green and brown. I sit down on the stump.

I'm not sure if this was supposed to be the end of the dream... It kind of seemed unfinished.

15: The needles

I'm walking along a road on the way to someplace. I walk up to a building and walk inside. its a big room with concrete walls and on the far side there's a car.
I walk up to the car (which is parked very close to the wall which had a yellow poster on it - not quite sure of the significance of that...)
I look inside the car and, sitting in the driver's seat, is Mari. I wave and ask her what she's doing. She shrugs and points to a door ahead of her.
I walk towards the door, open it and go inside...
As soon as I go in, 3 people hold me down. I can't move. As far as I can see, the room is white with white lights all over the place. It looks like a clinic. The people holding me down are dressed in white. One person comes up to me on one side with 3 big needles. I close my eyes as they poke me with them, one by one.
As soon as they let me go, I run back outside to where Mari is sitting in the car. pull down my collar to look at my shoulder and am horrified to find blisters appearing all over my shoulder...

I wake up with a start and check my shoulder. (No blisters, just in case you were wondering :D)

14: Floating

I'm in a room.
There is no gravity.
I'm floating around.
There's a bang from somewhere below me.
There are now balls coming towards me, much like the balls you would find in a child's ballroom.
It's colourful, we're floating, it's all good.

13: Pies

This is the first dream I've had in a while. It seems the increasing stress from uni and lack of sleep affects whether I have a dream or not... In any case, this is the latest:

I'm at a fair with Rayne.
Our mission; to collect the pies. Specifically, apple pies.
The prize; to be honest, I don't know.
So we begin.
Most people have really weird flavours like passionfruit and mango (which is great in a smoothie, but would make a crappy pie). We try really hard, but cannot find one apple pie. If we don't collect an apple pie, there'll be trouble (or something of the like... to be honest I don't know)
So we continue to search, but all of a sudden it begins to rain. We look down at our fruit-stained hands and decide to wash them in the rain, but it not only washes the fruit off, it washes the colour off as well. So we're now in black and white.
We look around the fairground and everybody has gone. (I assume its because of the rain.)
So we continue to look for an apple pie.
Our search takes us to the ferris wheel. We begin to climb on the spokes of the wheel and, holding onto the rim, we begin to ride around (because it is moving, I don't know why...)
Suddenly, I look down and see, sitting on one of the seats of the ride, an apple pie. Its just out of my reach.
I call out to Rayne, who is directly opposite me, holding onto the wheel on the other side. I tell her to get the pie. Neither of us can reach.
We count to three and both let go...

12: Slippery Hips

I'm standing in a room with white walls and a white floor with no furniture. I'm looking around me. Through a door in front of me walks Claudia (friend of mine) and she hands me two hoola hoops.
I take the pink hoop from her and she takes a green one and begins to spin it around her waist. I try but am unsuccessful. I look at her hopelessly and she says,
"The only way to do it is to make your hips slippery. It's all about the slippery hips"
I try again but am unsuccessful. I put the hoop down and sit on the floor, putting my head in my hands.
When I lift my head up again, (an indetermined time frame later) Dad is standing in front of me. I look up at him and he glares at me.
"Where have you been?" He asks. "You were supposed to have your operation two hours ago! This is so irresponsible!"
I groan and mumble a 'sorry' and follow him out the door and into a hospital room.
Theres a team of doctors there. One of them says,
"OK, lie down and we're going to take out your appendix."
I lie on the bed and close my eyes. When I open them again, I am in a hospital bed with Claudia and Matti (another friend) sitting by my bed.
"Does it hurt?" they ask.
"Yes," I say. (It didn't at all)

11: Mika - Grace Kelly

Ok, this was kind of a semi-dream. It needs a bit of explanation... Every morning, when I wake up I have my radio turn on (to 2dayfm, Kyle and Jackie O) and then 20mins later, my phone goes off and I get up. It was during the time in between the radio turning on and my phone going off that Grace Kelly by Mika came onto the radio. The following semi-dream was born...

I'm lying in my old room upstairs in my house. Grace Kelly begins to play and the symbol for MTV bounces up above my head (Can you see what's coming?). As the boppy music begins i sit bolt upright in bed, singing the song. I get out of bed and skip out onto the bridge between my old room and my parents room. Looking down at the living room, I see balloons completely covering the floor and I flip over the banister and land in the balloons just as the chorus comes on. Several people join me for a choreographed dance routine to the chorus. Balloons are falling from the roof. I waltz outside, shasaying and turning alternately until I'm out in the sunshine and I spin around embracing the sun with the other dancers leaping around me in a circular formation.

All in all, a great way to wake up!

10: The Scoggies Revisited

I'm sitting in a tree. By this, I don't mean on a branch, I mean inside the trunk. I know this because it smells like wood and its mossy inside (so it must be a tree that I'm sitting in). The only thing is, its quite spacious in there. I get up off the cushion of moss that I am sitting on and walk around. There's not much in there except for moss and a couple of lights (of course, that's what you find in trees...).
I look up and see light above me. I climb up to get a better look and as I get closer to the light, the hole gets narrower and narrower until i pop out the top of the tree which is just big enough for me to fit through (luckily, or this dream would've gone nowhere!). The top of the tree is surrounded by a layer of grass which is hovering about 50m above the earth (I can see the ground through little cracks in the grass, but I don't worry about simple things like height or gravity) and I get out and look around. I sit down on the grass next to the hole I just came out of and wait. In the distance, I see something coming towards me.
As the thing gets closer, I see it is a Scoggie (for those who don't know, the Scoggies are a race of people I made up to blame things on, when I was younger). This one resembled a troll doll with blue hair. As he approached, I knelt on my knees and half bowed to him (which, I'm guessing, is a Scoggie greeting). He bowed back and i stood up and took his outstretched hand.
He pointed to the edge of the grass which was a little way off and we went and took a look. I saw the 50m drop and shook my head, stepping back (terrified of heights), but he took my hand again and together, we ran to the edge and leaped off.

9: You're Getting a Dog!

Yes, Ant and Mat, you actually made it into one of my dreams....

I'm sitting with my parents. They turn to me and say,
"We think you need to show your responsibility a bit more, so you're getting a dog"
I take a minute, flabbergasted. (For those that don't know my parents, this is an unlikely, nay, impossible notion)
"So what kind of dog do you want to get?" Mum says
I take a minute to think and then say,
"A Cavalier King Charles Spaniel" (Hereafter CKCS. My favourite type of dog)
Dad gets up and says "Ok" and heads towards the door. I follow.
We walk out onto our street where we see our neighours, Jonathon and his daughter Emily, playing with their little white dog, Teddy. Dad begins talking to Jonathon while I excitedly tell Emily the news.
"No way!" She says, just as surprised as I am.
Dad comes up to Emily and I, holding dog. On closer analysis, it's a lilac CKCS with mauve spots. I look at it in disdain.
"Did you get that from Aldi?"
"It's only temporary, but is this the right kind?"
I nod and he sets the dog down.
"Jonathan (Funnily enough another neighbour with the same name) has one of these dogs, you know" I say.
"Lets go ask him about it then." And Dad sets off up the street.
When we get to Jonathan's house, we see his parents, Fran and Kevin, outside sweeping the driveway.
"We were wondering," I started, then I stopped. What if their dog's died? I thought. Dad seemed to understand.
"Our dog has a headache and we were wondering if you had any panadol for dogs?" He asked.
Fran and Kevin look sad. Fran goes inside the house and comes back with a box.
"Our dog was hit by a car..." She holds out the box. "Take a few of these."
She hands me a pair of scissors and i use them to get a few of the tiny pills out. (For some reason) I hide the pills in my mouth.
As dad and I are walking away I spit the pills out.
When we get back to our street, Mat and Ant are there with Aunty Gloria.
"We're going to get a dog" I tell them.
"HA!" Aunty Gloria says. "That'd be the day."
Dad, Ant and I get into the car and begin to drive. Halfway down the street, Dad stops.
"NO DAD!" I say, "We have to do this now!" (For those of you that don't know, my dad takes AGES to make big decisions and it annoys the crap out of me)
I get out of the car and push the car out of the street and down the hill.

8: Mexico

I'm in Mexico with my ex-imaginary friend Salvador. He's sitting by the roadside playing a banjo (I know banjos aren't Mexican - get over it) Everything is orange (which is the colour I see when I think of Mexico).
There's a truck coming towards us quite fast. As it approaches, I look on the back of the truck and see a donkey walking on a treadmil. It looks at me as the truck passes, and it shrugs (never knew donkeys could do that eh? Well they can!). I watch the truck get smaller and smaller in the distance until its gone. Then I walk away from Salvador down a back street.
I hear music coming from somewhere on the street. I follow the sound into a house where there are about 300 people crammed into a tiny room, all watching a tv. I can't get close enough to see whats on the tv. I try to climb on the backs of some of the people crowded around the tv (they don't seem to notice me doing this).
I feel a tug on my pant leg just as I have hoisted myself up on someone's back. I look down and see a little boy smiling at me. I get down to the ground and kneel so I am his height. He holds out a fist to me and looks at me expectantly.
I hold out my hand and he drops a little package into it and runs away.
I walk outside onto the street again and open the package. I wake up before I can find out what it was...

7: A Dream About a lot of Things I know Nothing About...

I'm walking down Sunset Boulevarde in LA. (I've never been there so its a lot like it is in Pretty Woman)
I see David Bowie walking down the street towards me. (I don't really know what he looks like but for some reason I know its him).
I say hello and he smiles back at me.
I'm with Avery (a person I've never met but is a friend of a friend) and she's telling me all about Vera Wang dresses and I nod like I know what she's talking about. I DO know what she's talking about (but I don't if you know what I mean...)
I stop dead in my tracks as I catch the sight of my shaddow in front of me, but the sun is also in front of me.
"This doesn't make sense" I think to myself. When I look up, Avery is gone. I'm standing alone on a deserted Sunset Boulevarde and I look up when it starts snowing (Never been to the snow but thats what I guess it looks like) I hold my hand up and catch some snowflakes on my hand. They're big like in those cartoons where the snowflakes are as big as your face. I take a bite out of it and wake up completely confused.

6: The Rude Guy

No birds in this one...

I'm in a bar with my friend Lucy.
We're about to order a drink when a very rude man cuts in front of us. Lucy stands back and lets him in, while I step forward and tell him off.
"Excuse me," I say "but we're about to order and you just cut in line and that's just not acceptable"
Lucy looks embarrassed.
The man looks angry for a second, then his expression fades and he says,
"Congratulations! Have you ever heard of the show mmmm?" (he mumbled it, so I couldn't hear it)
I shake my head.
"We're a hidden camera show where people get rewarded for telling other people off when they've been rude! You're our newest winner!"
"WOOO!" I yell, pumping my fist in the air.
I turn to Lucy for her 'woo' but she just looks disbelieving.
The man gives me some money, and a camera man comes out. I turn and look straight down the camera and say,
"I just got Punk'd!!"
And the camera man throws the camera on the floor, where it consequently shatters like glass, and he runs away.

5: Two Goats and a Pheasant

It's the middle of the night and I'm at school, trying to find my way out. I run out one (exit) gate and find myself back where I started on the other side. Still, I try again.
I see the outside world from where I am, but I can't get to it.
After trying it a couple more times, it begins to get lighter. I stop and stare at the sun, which is orange.
When I turn to look at the gate again, I see three shaddows standing in my way. Two look the same, and one different.
I walk up to them to get a closer look, and the orangey light from the sun reveals that they are two goats and a pheasant. I crouch to look at them in the eyes. and they nod at me. We know what to do.
The two goats turn to face the gate and the pheasant grows and grows until it's bigger than me. It kneels down and I climb on its back. I find a golden rope in my hands and the ends are attached to the goats. All three animals begin to run at the gate. I close my eyes as we go through and open them to find myself in bed in my room.

4: Re-occuring Dream

I'm in an old room. It looks like a the parking lot of the EQ, but smaller and with no cars or colours.
There's a doorway at the end of the room. I peer in and see my mum. She sits on a staircase, reading a book.
I shout out to her, "Mum!" but she doesnt hear.
All of a sudden, a huge, black, ugly dog comes out from nowhere and barks at me. I yell for mum but she still doesn't look up.
The dog keeps barking at me, only its barks become more and more violent and seem to be pushing me backwards more and more with the air the dog expels from its icky mouth. The dog gives one final bark and i go flying backwards.
I fling my arm out to stop myself and grab the first thing that I touch.
A fridge door.
The door of the fridge flaps wildly, still fueled by the dog's windy barks. I hold on for dear life, but eventually my arms give out and I fall down into a trapdoor.
I expect to hit the ground, but instead am suspended in midair in a cellar where my brother and dad are sitting.
Whew!

3: In the jungle with Jon Heder

I'm standing at edge of a large messy jungle, swarming with animals. My team are standing behind me. We are given a map and told to find our way Amazing Race-style through to the end.
We look at the map and work out the best way through.
Just as we're about to leave, Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite) walks up to me and says
"You guys are, like, awesome. Somebody drink this cordial."
He hands me a cup of red cordial. Knowing that John Heder is the ruler of all Jungle team sports, I obey and drink the cordial. I immediately fall into a coma and my team must now carry me through the jungle. Gosh!

2: Coldplay, Chickens and Jelly

I am standing in the front row of the mosh pit at a cold play concert. (Why there is a mosh pit at a coldplay conert, I will never know...). I'm with my friend Rayne. Chris Martin looks at me and sings,
"Would you like to come onstage?"
I nod and am pulled up, pulling Rayne up with me. We stand onstage, nodding along to the song for a minute, but quickly get bored, so we run off stage into the curtains.
Instead of being backstage, we find ourselves in a barn. The walls of the barn are higher than I can see and there are shelves all the way up with live chickens lining the shelves.
We decide we must get to the other side of the barn, so we begin to quietly walk across, tiptoeing in the unnecessary way people do in movies. I hear a scream from behind me and Rayne has stepped on a dog's chew toy and is grimacing as she takes her foot off slowly, making the sound echo around the barn. We both look up expectantly.
Silence.
Then all of a sudden, chickens come from all sides.
"Run!" I yell.
We both run full pelt to the end of the barn, avoiding chickens left, right and centre.
I suddenly feel like I'm running in slow-mo' and there's a chicken runnning under my foot and I can't avoid it. I step on the chicken, but instead of feeling its bones crunch, it becomes jelly.
Lime, green jelly.
MMMMMMM!

1: The Ducks

To set the scene, I'm standing in a field of peppermint green-coloured grass. The sky is baby blue and there is dark water a little way off. Some ducks come waddling up. They are purple (but this doesnt seem to bother me). There's a caterpault some way off into the distance. I bend down and pick up two of the ducks and carry them over to the caterpault. I place one of them in the bucket thing and set it off. The duck explodes in the air like a firework.
