Dream Diary ～夢日記～

I'm posting too many bug-related things, aren't I? Well, a few years ago, I had a dream where something like a snake was crawling on my body. The sensation of it crawling was so real that when I woke up... Lo and behold! There was a centipede on my stomach. And it had burrowed inside my clothes! Startled, I jumped up and instinctively kicked away the centipede that had fallen off from the sudden movement. Dazed, I was lulled back to sleep by my drowsiness. The punchline is, the next day, it was my father who got bitten by the centipede. My father, who was in a different room. Was there a second centipede? Did it bite my father out of revenge for being kicked? Or did it try to bite me again after biting my father? The truth remains shrouded in mystery.

I had a weird dream where I pulled out a thick hair, about 1cm wide, and a fist-sized hair follicle came out with it. I thought, 'Oh no, my pores are going to open up...' What is this dream?

I had a dream where I dreamt that the air conditioner unit in my room fell and broke. I freaked out ( ´ㅁ` ;) I don't even know what I'm saying myself lol

When I have dreams that make me feel happy, I'm usually in a warm, calm, cobalt blue sea in a southern country. But sometimes there are unrealistic parts, like it's shallow no matter how far you go, or crabs and fish appear in huge numbers... And I didn't grow up in a seaside town; I grew up and live in a completely landlocked mountainous area, so the sea isn't really a familiar thing to me 🤔

There's a saying that dreaming of snakes brings wealth, but the snakes in my dreams were usually black. I often hear that black snakes are a bad omen, but I think maybe they were giving me 'advice.' Once, when my posture was bad and my legs hurt, a black snake bit my leg in my dream, and I woke up startled. One day, I had a dream where a disliked person from work was attacked by a black snake. In the dream, I vaguely thought that person deserved it because they had stepped on a turtle. After that, I briefly saw a white snake. I'm not sure what it meant, but later I moved and parted ways with that unpleasant coworker. Was it a dream of separation? I haven't had a clear snake dream since then.

When it gets cooler, I sometimes have dreams about the toilet. In the dream, I'm looking for a restroom, but it's in a place that makes me think, 'Is this really it...?' and I end up searching all over. Like, the door is too short at the top and bottom, so people can see in from the outside! (Like at a school) Or it's an old-fashioned squat toilet (an old public restroom?) Or a toilet with a mechanism I can't quite figure out... After searching around, I finally give up and think, 'This is the only place,' and then I go... and suddenly wake up. I worry if I might have wet the bed at my age, but thankfully I haven't, and I quickly rush to the real restroom. And when I wake up groggy, I sometimes wonder if this is also a dream, or if I'll really wet the bed when I get much older, which makes me anxious. Well, it's probably a dream you have when you've really held it in for a long time.

When I was really little. For about a month, I kept having this dream where a family member walking next to me would suddenly turn into a stranger old man. It wasn't exactly a nightmare, but it was unsettling. But one day, after I got a burn on my foot, even though it was minor, it covered a large area. After that, the dream stopped. However, even though I cooled the burn properly, it blistered strangely and left a mark. The burn scar is still faintly visible today.

About a year ago? There was a praying mantis in the middle of the stairs on my path, and I thought it was dangerous, so I moved it to the side of the path. Well, it was out of goodwill and a good deed, but the dream I had that day was of being surrounded by countless praying mantises. At the beginning of the dream, as soon as I left a private room that looked like a restroom, there were swarms of praying mantises covering my feet and the walls. I don't particularly hate insects, so it wasn't unpleasant. But I can't forget thinking, 'That darn mantis repaid my kindness with hostility...' Seriously?

A pretty nonsensical story For some reason, I dreamed I was piloting a Gundam and defeating suspicious individuals. You might be thinking, 'Huh?', but I was indeed attacking suspicious people in a Gundam. What's more, these suspicious individuals were somehow unfazed even by the Gundam's beam attacks, and they were shouting, 'Don't post your cover songs!' I haven't done that, though. It was so bizarre I felt compelled to report it. Thank you.

A dream story. A little while ago, I was trapped in what seemed like a strange child's room in a dream. Even when I went out into the hallway, I'd end up back in that child's room? Suddenly I thought, 'Ah, this isn't real, it's a dream!' and I scrolled on my smartphone, which I was somehow holding tightly. Even when I stopped my finger, the screen inexplicably started moving on its own with black swirls, and I thought, 'Oh no, this is bad.' The moment I tried to let go of the phone, I suddenly thought I woke up from the dream. Then, thinking I had woken up, I couldn't move. For some reason, in complete darkness, I was holding something like a smartphone in my hand, but I couldn't move anything. There was no one by my pillow, it really felt like I was in some room. But it was strangely quiet, and I felt like there was nothing around me. ...So, I squeezed my eyes shut, and that was also a dream. The punchline is, for a while afterward, the sensation in my hands didn't return. My eyes were open, but even though there should have been nothing in my hand, I felt like I was holding that smartphone from before. For about 2 minutes, I tried to open or grip the smartphone that wasn't there. Even though there was nothing.
