Yet another weird dream
Sigh... just when u thought things can't get worse. To not be able to have proper sleep is bad enough... but to have what ever shred of sleep disrupted by a dream and u wake up even more tired? Sigh X 2
I was in the Amazing race with Kame. Yeah.. THE Amazing race (hey, it's my dream, let me fantasize yes?). We were at some sort of beach. Nice and blue, not far from civilization as there were buildings behind (think beach resorts etc). At that point of time, I was being briefed about the task at hand: I was supposed to swim out in open sea to a red buoy that was about 200m away to grab the clue on it. I remember thinking "piece of cake".
And then it happened. As I was about to jump in, I saw from far, a tidal wave. Wait, i stand corrected. More like a tsunami. It was 6-8 stories high and it was heading right towards the beach. Naturally, everyone started to scramble away. I specifically remember picking up Kame's red backpack (and at that point, i dunno where she went. Flirting with some hunky Cabana boy maybe? ha ha.. yes yes, I help others fantasize too). And i turned to see where the wave was. But there was no wave. Instead, what was supposed to be the foam of the surf, became a row of planes! Those world war 1 kinds, propeller powered etc. i remember cursing under my breath: WTF... did i really see wrongly? I swore it was a tidal wave!
But we were not out of the woods yet. The planes crashed into the buildings behind the beach. Mayhem ensued. Fire was everywhere. People were screaming. Shattered glass on the ground. Trucks were trying to clear the wreakage. And surprisingly, I was extremely calm. But an unsettling feeling made me turn towards the beach again. And out of the smoky fumes... i saw a Boeing. Jumbo Jet... 747. And it was flying real low. I could feel the strong draft as it flew by me... metres away. i was knocked to the ground. The Boeing crashed into the building. just like the rest of the planes.
At this point, Kame appears and takes the red backpack from me. She starts running towards the boeing wreakage, like the rest of the people around us. But for me, i turned and walked away. Away from the wreakage and mayhem and instead towards the open peaceful sea....
And that's when i woke up. Drat. What the hell is this dream supposed to mean? Too much mayhem in the world? After all... Tsunamis and plane crashes have happened somewhat recently. Chaos in my life? Sudden disruptions? Or a sign to just walk away? leave everything behind? It's not worth it? Why care for others? They can take care of themselves? God knows...
Black Adder asked me to just forget about it. It's just nothing... perhaps.
