Metallic Masks & Blanket Fort

Night of August 8th, 2012

Metallic Masks & Blanket Fort

I had two long dreams I remember but I only remember short parts of them both. I woke up at 9:00am wrote down part of a dream, then slept in till 9:30am to have another dream. I jotted down notes of the dreams in my phone but upon reading them once i fully woke up I realized how little sense they made. I figure I should post them both here since they are short, and hard to explain.

1. Metallic Masks:
Through this entire dream there was ambient music playing, also certain parts of the background music sounded like Flying Lotus or some obscure Chillout music. I was in this dream with my older sister Kelsey and our future roommates. We were in a gladiator like arena, but smaller, and had a epic duel before us. There was a group of about 20 men we had to fight together. The opposing side all wore strange masks. They were metallic and were colored silver, blue and dark grey. They reminded me of Death Eater's masks from the Harry Potter series.

They were scary looking but there wasn't fear on my end. I once again whipped out the karate-chop move on these guys. Super effective. Me and my team did well and fought of these guys. As the battle was ending we were somehow in a street finishing the duel. We had gone from the gladiator stadium to a street intersection in our struggle.
After we won we all returned to my house to eat some pizza. I remember the pizza steaming on a hot pan, but don't remember if I ate any. Finally we went down to a local spring fed pool and the dream faded away.


2. Blanket Fort:
So my notes on this dream sucked. I texted them to myself in a half awake state..I will type the following in the exact way it doth been written...

"Giant fort made of blanket

abd cardboard. Mom aand

uncle d diddnt like it."

So what I remember from that dream now is this..

I have been packing up my things for days now, so my room is a mess. In the dream I was putting things into suitcases and folding up blankets. Then I realized that my room was in perfect condition to be made into a super fort. I quickly assembled a masterpiece that took up the space of an entire house. I did a walk through of the fort and saw the fort had become a long hallway and was very decorative. I decided to let people start touring the place so I welcome others to adventure in.

I walked out into the street to go to a marketplace to find my Mom and Uncle. They were eating lunch on an outdoor patio under some trees. I told them I had made a fort and that people can come there to say goodbye to me before I move. They were both not pleased. They told me that they had liked there plan of having a party at my uncle's house better and that I should take the fort down immediately. 

I was saddened by this and tried to explain I still wanted the party but also to have a fort, they just walked away. 

Just after that I woke up and jotted down the bits I remembered. 

Me and my Kelsey (the older sister) are having a going away party for us that my uncle and mom are helping happen, so that makes sense they showed up in my dream. 

AND this is a video of a real life blanket for that me and my littlest sister made earlier in the summer, in May of 2012. 

Thanks for reading, hope you enjoy the video.
