  1. Title: To much debt
    Manifest Content: I woke up in my room at home and I rolled over to where I put my wallet and I kept checking my wallet. My room was dark but I could tell that the only thing that was in there was my bed, me, my desk and my wallet. But the next time I woke up in my dream my room got smaller.This happened about three times before I woke up. And every time i woke up to check my wallet it was always empty.
    Latent Content: I beleive this dream is soley based on the fact that in my manangement class we were talking a debt and how college kids have the most debt and it just got me worried about what will happen when I graduate.

    1. I see what you mean, I always have dream like this as well, the empty wallet could mean that people have never ending debt that people have over a lifetime, but being a senior myself and only having a few weeks left of college debt of student loans becomes very scary lol.

    2. This is a pretty interesting dream, I can relate myself! I'm always worrying about what I'm going to do when I graduate to make money. But I wouldn't worry, you have plenty of time to figure things out. Graduating from Nichols almost fully garauntees you will be a successful person in Pursuing your career. Keep working hard and the rest will fall into place.

    3. That's quite the dream that can easily be seen as the future. I m glad I haven't had those dreams yet. An empty wallet is never good no matter what way you look at it. Graduating soon I am in the same boat as you. We will all be good though.

  2. Title: Where’d My Teeth Go?

    Manifest Content: I’m standing in an empty room looking into a mirror. The mirror is round with a wood frame. I open my mouth to smile and notice that I am missing teeth. The few teeth I do have are crooked and bent. I start to panic and wonder what happened to my teeth. I begin to feel angry because I had braces in the past and have followed all the rules to keep my teeth straight. I close my mouth hoping that when I open my mouth again I will see something different. I open my mouth again and more teeth are missing than before. Now I am really panicking and call my mom to come look at them. Then, I wake up.

    Latent Content: I think I had this dream because the day before I was talking to someone about getting wisdom teeth removed. At first, I thought this dream may symbolize an insecurity I have about my teeth, but after thinking about it I think it actually resembles a fear I have of my teeth moving. I had braces years ago and ever since I have been taking good care of them to ensure that they won’t move. I think I call my mom in my dream because she helps me through any problem I have in life.

    1. I always have this one dream about running down the street and my teeth falling out and it mostly happens when I talk about teeth with someone the day before. I hate having these kinds of dreams because it feels so weird, especially when you have little or no teeth at all.

      Delete
    2. I also had a dream about my teeth falling out and i remember that when i had this dream someone told me that dreams where your teeth fall out mean that you are anxious it is also one of the top five most common dreams so you might have had it because we're in college and this time of the year before spring break has probably made you stressed out about your workload or anticipating your vacation.

      Delete
    3. I have this dream all the time! Either that or my teeth have changed color. I'd say your interpretation is right on. My weird teeth dreams increased when my wisdom teeth were going to be removed.

  3. Title: Spring Break

    Content: I woke up at noon, feeling great and wondering what I what going to do over the next 10 days, finally on Spring Break, I could finally de-stress and have fun and not worry about school for at least for a little while. Getting out of bed I felt good, finally catching up on sleep that I lost over the past several weeks. When making it downstairs into the kitchen I opened the fridge and it went black.

    Latent: I think that my mind is telling me that i really need to relax and de-stress over spring break and take it easy even if it just for a little while.

    1. I think this dream is definitely telling you that it's time to relax. Since spring break is so close, you are probably very anxious for it to start. In a way, this could be your brain organizing and planning how you will be spending your time during spring break.

      Delete
    2. I definitely agree with both of your interpretations. You have probably had to much going on recently that your mind just wants a break from tests and homework; spring break is the perfect time for you have some much need relaxation. I think that your brain may be planning what you can do over break and is definitely working well with wish fulfillment, by dreaming that it is already spring break when its only days away.

      Delete
    3. I agree with Jaime and Darien!! I think it certainly is wish fulfillment or maybe your minds way of devising how you will spend your break! Just a thought :)

      Delete
    4. Yes probably way to tired and stressed. I don't know about black part. I would guess food in a fridge many spark some colorful ideas perhaps you were hungry before sleep?

  4. Title: Run Away
    Manifest: I had a dream I was playing at the park by my grandparent’s house. It was two of my old friends and I running around the park having fun. We were playing hid and go seek, I was it. We were running around the park when I got some of the rubber things (we had rubber pieces instead of woodchips) stuck in my shoes so I stopped to shake them out. As I had my head down to shake them out I felt as though everyone was running out of the park so I looked up. Just as I looked up I could just barely see them running away. I threw my shoes off to the side and started running after them. I turned the corner and could not see them anymore. I started walking slowly back to my grandparents house with a sad face on.
    Latent: I am not really sure what this dream meant. Maybe I have been feeling like people are running away from me and that I am a lone. I have been by myself a lot lately. Maybe that has a little to do with it.

    1. Perhaps the other people in your dream represent the parts of yourself that is running away or avoiding an issue in your life. Maybe the disappearance of everyone is the park is your unconscious' way of telling you to turn around and face what everyone else is running away from! Just a thought :)

      Delete
    2. The way that everybody ran away when you stopped to do something (getting rubber pieces out of your shoe) could be a subconscious fear of your friends abandoning you when you need help or when something is slowing you down.

  5. Title: what?

    Manifest content: I walked into my roommate's room that was in a place that looked unfamiliar and she was laying naked in her bed. she had a weird tattoo in her back that seemed like a poem of some sort and it took up all of the room on her back. In my dream i thought that this was normal. as i moved further into the room i seen that there was an extension on the room and there was a row of about 7 beds lined up side by side. Two beds down from my roommate was this hunchback looking animal man that was talking on a cellphone. I felt as though i have been there before but i still felt uncomfortable because i didn't know how to act in front of these human like monsters. as i spoke to my roommate i realized we were in a hidden part of remillard hall that i had a glimpse of in a dream prior. once i realized the location and that no one on campus knew of suck a place i went to walk back to room and than i woke up.

    Latent content: after I woke up i wondered to myself whether or not i felt a certain type of way toward my roommates friends. I don't think that i see them as monsters so it was a little odd waking up and recalling the dream. I am not really sure why everything worked out the way that it did in the dream but i do think that it made me laugh and feel a sense of concern after i woke up.

    1. Perhaps the monster represents something you are feeling towards your roommate like you said or you are hiding something from them that is manifesting into a scary monster and haunts your mind. You felt uncomfortable because maybe your unconscious is telling you to deal with it! Just a thought :)

  6. Title: Florida
    Dream: Almost every night this week I can remember dreaming about being in Florida with my team for spring break. But the one I had last night was especially crazy. I can remember being at one of our games and we end up winning. We went back to the hotel and started drinking like sailors, we went to the closest beach and there ended up being a huge party with over a thousand people in it. It was nuts! Nickelback was there performing a concert and it was a great time, we brought some people back to the hotel to party more and from then on it felt like the dream kept repeating. The sad thing is none of this would dare happen! Our coach would kill us.

    Interpretation: I believe I had this dream because all I have been thinking about lately is getting out of New England and going down south for some warm weather. My team and I have been complaining for months now about how we just wanna get to Florida to start our season. We are thirsty and ready to play our hearts out while having a good time.

  7. Title: sassy!
    Content: I am driving down my road when I see people I think I know in the yard of one of the houses. I pull over and we start talking. They seem to not know who I am though I am confident I know them. Suddenly, my car, sassy, is missing. I start freaking out and running around. For some reason I'm looking for her in the house. The kids are laughing evil-y at me. I beg them to tell me where sassy is. I go to the garage and it's like my car has been through a crusher. They jeer and shout 'you will never get you sassy back!'
    Interpretation: I wake up panicked. Why I had such an emotional dream about my car I do not know. Maybe it's because I rely on it to get me everywhere and if something happened to it I'd be really stuck.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. That is a pretty emotional dream about your car. Were you driving right before you went to bed? Maybe that could of been your reason on why you dreamt about your car. Or maybe you thought about your car before youwent to bed and it triggered this dream to surfice.

  8. Title: failure

    Content: In my dream I was never motivated to go to class or to do my homework. My parents did not know about this issue until the school called my house telling my parents that I failed out of college. My parents were extremely dissapointed of me and I felt so embarresed.
    Interpretation: I know exactly why I dreamt this and it is because the day I had this dream I actually did skip class and I felt extremely guilty for skipping yet again in this particular class. I don't want to fail so I think my dream was just trying to scare me into going to class.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. i agree that your dream was trying to scare you. I also think it was a way for your guilty conscious to come clean. You don't want to fail and your dream was trying to warn you not to skip again because then you might end up failing.

  9. Title: Sunny Days
    Manifest Content: I open my eyes and the sharp sun is blinding me, I can feel the warmth on my skin and am loving every second of it. I roll over onto my stomach and look to my left where my best friend is sitting. We are both on vacation and couldn’t be any happier. I roll back over and look in the sky she mentions that she has to study for exams later in the week, and I begin to worry I worry that I forgot to take one of my exams and that I missed class. I remember it is vacation but I can’t shake the feeling.

    Latent Content: I think that it is wish fulfillment in wanting vacation to come as soon as possible, it might be that I am overly stressed with so much work and multiple exams. My brain is planning what I am going to do over vacation and telling me not to worry. While in all actuality I was worried about getting a bad grade on a test and that I still having other assignments due that I have not gotten to yet.

    1. This makes sense given the timing seeing as we are about to go into spring break. I agree it is probably just some worrying getting into your regularly scheduled dreaming.

  10. Title: Déjà Vu

    Manifest: In many dream I just remember laying on many couch in my house. I was watching TV like most other days. My mom was nagging me from in the kitchen but I am not sure what it was. I just remember feeling annoyed which is pretty much how I really feel when that actually happens in real life. My dogs were laying with me and I know we were watching TV but I have no idea what show or movie or any of the details. In the dream my dad came home just like he always does, my dogs went crazy just like they always do, and I didn't move like normal. Then my dream ended when I looked at the clock, even though I don't remember actually seeing a time. I got up to feed my dogs dinner and then that was it.

    Latent: It was weird because I wouldn't actually say that I knew I was dreaming, because I didn't seem conscious of it. But that is e3xactly how my days go when I don't have work and actually have some time to relax. I don't know if it means I am craving or in need of a lazy day. I don't usually have time to relax like that, so it was nice.

    1. I have very similar dreams as in I wake up and feel like I already did something in real life but in fact it was just in my dream! Sometimes I don't realize that I didn't do something hours later, very interesting how a dream can trick your mind in real life.

      Delete
    2. I'm going to agree with both of you on this one I feel like I lose track of time always when I dream all the surroundings are still moving and the dreams look way too much like real life its such an interesting topic to explore

  11. Title: Movie Set

    Manifest Content: This was a short dream, one of a very few as I haven't been remembering dreams very well as of late. Anyway, my dream is basically that I was working on a movie set but I didn't really have any particular thing I was doing. The actors were working on an action scene and it was a pretty awesome fight. After the scene they all looked at me like I was important and eventually someone asked me if it had been a good scene. I didn't understand until one of them told me I was the director. And then I woke up.

    Latent Content: This dream was weird, I'm not sure what was going on or why I was in charge. I suppose it might just be some wish fulfillment of wanting to be in charge of something, I don't know it might just have been a weird dream cause my brain wanted to have a weird dream. That's all I got.

    1. Perhaps you have taken on some roles lately that put you in charge and you are worried you aren't quite ready for the responsibility. You may be glad to have the opportunity but also a little nervous that you might not know what you are doing. Maybe someday you want to make it big somewhere, but right now you might not be completely ready.

  12. Title: Hitting Up The Links

    Manifest: I was on the first tee down at a familiar golf course in South Carolina. I was surrounded by a crowd of people cheering me on. Every shot I hit, the crowd bursted out with a loud cheer as if I was on the PGA Tour, except no one else was on the course with me. It was seemingly the best round I had ever played until my dream seemed to fast forward to the 18th hole, I was about to hit my last put to post my lowest round ever. As soon as my putter went backwards I woke up.

    Latent: I think that this dream follows Freudian's concept of wish fulfillment, I will be going down to South Carolina for Spring Break and will be playing on the exact same course. I want to play really well because that only makes the time even more enjoyable. The crowd, I think, assured that I was playing really well because I don't remember vivid details of every shot, just the crowd yelling and cheering me on.

    1. I agree with your interpretation. You were probably the only one on the course because you are so excited about going down to play that you are not worried about how anyone else does because you just want to be as successful as you can. By waking up before the last shot is completed, this might symbolize how anxious you are to get down there and play.

  13. Title: Where are we?

    Manifest: its the middle of summer and I haven't done anything fun the whole time. i go to my boyfriend and tell him i want to go somewhere to get away, he agreed and told me to pack for a week. I pack everything i would need for a nice vacation. we get in his can and are on our way, i ask him where were going and he wouldn't tell me. i think were going to an airport because i told him wanted to go to far away and somewhere warm. We are in the car for over an hour and i end up falling asleep. He wakes me up and its night time i ask him where are we and he just smiles. i look around and i see a log cabin and two other cars in the driveway. The front door of the cabin fly's open and i look up to see his best friend and his girlfriend, along with my best friend and her boyfriend. i realize we are at the cabin in New Hampshire, and he had this whole vacation planed already.

    Latent: I think i had this dream because i told my boyfriend the night before that this summer i wanted to go somewhere this summer because i usually never go anywhere. this week was his spring break and he went to New Hampshire with his best friend and his girlfriend and their other friend. they stayed in a cabin that belongs to his friends girlfriend and he told me we are going there this summer.

    1. I agree with your interpretation because I have had a few dreams about things that I have talked about with people throughout the day as well. It was probably the last thing you thought about before you went to sleep, similar to when Dr. Davis had just try and tell ourselves what to dream about as we begin to drift off to sleep.

  14. Title: Disease-Free

    Content: In my dream, I was at my friend's house. She had lost a lot of weight, and was super excited about it. Her house was dark and gray even though it was daytime and it was sunny outside. It was also filled with small dogs, even though she only has one. One her brothers who I used to work with was there, even though he's away at college, while her other brother was missing from the dream.

    Interpretation: My friend has an issue with cancer-like tumors and growths inside of her body, and the medication to prevent them makes it easy for her to gain weight, but hard to lose it. We had been talking about it the other day, so I think that influenced the dream. She also talks a lot about how much she misses her older brother and how annoying her dog is, so that probably influenced it too.

  15. Title: What is going on?
    Manifest:
    I am with my little brother a couple streets over from where we live and there is a weird rodent looking creature, it kind of looks like a skunk except its black, white, and brown colored. It kept coming after us and trying to attack us so I ended up fighting with it in a pond and I drowned it. My brother and I go running across the street and we see three of our cousins trying to walk down a street but they can’t because there’s a wedding in the way. We run into my mom and she tries to drive away while my brother is walking in front of the car. She hits him and runs over his legs, so I pick him up and rush him over to the sidewalk. My mom comes over and she keeps telling me its ok he’s 21 he’ll be ok. I am panicking and so confused because he is really only twelve. I try to google on my phone what I am supposed to do, I don’t know if I am supposed to get him to try and move his legs or if he is supposed to stay still. Then I wake up.
    Latent:
    I don’t know anyone who is getting married anytime soon so I am not really sure what the wedding had anything to do with in this dream. I am turning 21 so, so that might be why I kept hearing my mom say that.

  16. Interpretation to Tawny Buelow: Possibly the friends, that you were playing with are friends that you do not want to lose and you want to still be friends with them. Or you are scared of being alone which shows when you were chasing them.

  17. Title: A Kid Again

    Manifest Content: I'm a kid again. It's spring time and we're enjoying the weather. I'm running around outside, playing with my younger sister. We do this thing we always did when we were little, we flip our bikes upside down and pretend the wheels are steering wheels of a ship. We laugh and have fun pretending to crash. We flip our bikes right side up again and ride them as if they are cars. We ride through the yard and around the trees. We don't say much but our laughter never ceases.

    Latent: I think this dream just shows my desire for spring and to be young and carefree again. When we're young we want nothing more than to grow up. Now that I am grown up, for the most part anyway, I just wish there wasn't so much stress associated with it and I think my dream was trying to relax me and bring me back to a time when I was not stressed. Perhaps it was also reminding me that I can still have fun even as an adult.

  18. Title: very random

    Dream: I have more dreams in the morning after I hit snooze for about 1hr to 45 min than I remember when I wake up normally. Today I had a weird one. I remember dropping off my brother for something like work, and I find myself walking through a strip mall trying to find something to eat. I go into each store and see what it is , I don't remember looking at the signs, I just walked in. I remember big ice creams with chocolate dipped waffle cones, I figured to go there after I eat. Then I went into another place and I see my family in the distance. It's was my distant cousins and not my immediate family , then my alarm goes off....

    Interpretation: when I went to bed I was hungry and wanted Oreos but never got them. And I really don't know why I would have this dream. I never usually have food dreams. And family, I don't really like being around them since my parents divorce. So I'm not sure about that.

  19. Title: Finally Falling

    Dream: It was a very short dream but very vivid I started out just running through the forest holding on to someones hand who happen to be my little sister and I was tugging her along with me. We were going through the woods avoiding trees and all we could see behind us were headlights but no car noises or anything. Finally we popped out of the forest to a cliff where I didn't even hesitate to jump off of it I saw water when i jumped off of it but as soon as we hit the the water I awakened.

    Interpretation: It was a pretty random dream I though a lot of different things going on like why was my sister there and where is a place where a forest just turns into a sunny cliff with what seems like an ocean. Could be a stress related dream but then again I don't know why my sister would be in it.

  20. Title: Betrayed
    Content: In this dream I was at a fair with my brothers. We were happy and playing games but then all of a sudden there were a group of what looked like secret agents that seemed to be after me. I jumped on my brother's back and we ran for it while my other brother ran to distract them. My brother who's back I was on seemed to be doing a great job of running with a small person on his back, he was quick and agile and able to hide when we spotted one of the bad guys. After what seemed to be hours of hiding and running, my brother brought us in to a room. I jumped off his back and asked why we were hiding somewhere without a clear escape and where no one else can see us. Then I turned around and the bag guys walked in the door, they gave my brother money and began to run after me. I booked it to the door and ran for my life. I couldn't believe that my brother gave me up and planned this all along, I thought he was on my side but apparently he wasn't. I kept running and running until I woke up.
    Interpretation: I'm not sure why I dreamt about this. I'm not close with my brothers at all since there is such a large age gap but I hope they wouldn't give me up for money. This was a very random dream.

  21. Title: The Soccer Game
    Content: I was playing for the United States Women's National Team. It was a chance in a lifetime. It was a game against Canada in the World Cup. We had to win to go the finals. My dream started when we were down 1-0 at the end of the first half. The second half began and I was playing midfield. The second half started out slow but eventually we got a break. There was a breakaway with my teammate and she scored to make it 1-1. There was 20 minutes left. Canada had a lot of chances to score but just couldn't convert. Eventually it got into stoppage time. There was many chances for both teams. We got the ball down the sideline and we kept going. I went into the box ready for the cross. I was moving around getting away from a defender. My teammate crossed the ball and I got the chance. I jumped and headed into the back of the net! We scored! I scored! It was amazing! We went crazy. The final whistle blew and we won! And I scored the winning goal!
    Interpretation: Just before going to bed I was watching the USWNT game against Canada. I think I just dreamed about me playing because they are my heroes and I was just watching them before I went to bed. I also think I dreamt this because it was my dream to play for them
