What I remember first is entering what I percieve as a modeling class. I recall thinking, I wish this was an acting class. I don't know why. As I walk into the large open room, I see a couple rows of seats, more like benches I think. They are set up in a semi-circle like arrangment. The back row was higher then the front. Therre were several students in there. Young people. Good looking young people, not like me at all. I feel like they were much younger than myself. I was thinking that I am as I am onw, not young, and not model material. Anyway, in front of the seats I see a podium like thing. I think that is what it was. As I am walking towards this area, these seats are to my left, a wall is to my right several feet and I can also see the wall directly in front of me. Then, an instructor, I can not decribe at all, says from behind me at this pointe, somthing that makes me pick up a telephone (corded, not cell) from the little podium, and I start talking into it, to the students in the seats, and saying all these get- um-going things like, "Hey how are you guys doing?" I can not remember any more of what I said, but I said several things right off the top of my head. I felt rather proud of this. I am NOT known for being particularly outgoing, thus why this seems strange. It was like I was trying to impress the teacher.The next thing I recall is the teacher taking me and a few others in a vehicle (can ont describe at all). We start traveling on a curvy road in what seemed like a mountainous road. I seem to remember looking down as we moved along. It was an place I do not ever remember seeing before in real life. We soon arive at a someplace that I can not remember really enough to describe here, but I do rememebr thinking it was beautiful, and felt high class. I then remember being in the building. At first it is a restaurant. I see tables and people eating. I think I walked down, like my sunk in living room in Lombard, but a couple more steps down. I look to the left at the expanse of the room, which I am not sure about. I dont know how much time I spent in there, but then I think I leave there, and walk out into a curved hallway. Looking back on it, it was the shape of the corridors on the starship Enterprise, but wider. Carpeted, neutral tones? I dont recall any vibrant colours at all in this dream. The restaurant was on the 'inside' of the curve. I belive there were windows on the other 'wall'.
As I am walking through this 'hallway', I see in front of me several people standing t in the middle of it. When I get up to them, I look up at them one at a time. The first one I recognise is my Aunt Winnie. The second, is my Mom. The third standing slightily beyond her is my Dad. Here is the strange part, I remember having to look UP far more than I would in real life. As if I was a young child. I am not tall in real life, but, this was as if I was maybe 10 years olde. Even in the dream, I thought this was strange becasue I did not feel like I was any younger than I am now. The other thing was that my Mom and Dad were both much younger than the present. MY Dad still had black hair (it is now snow white) and my Mom looked like she did in maybe the late 70's early 80's. This is a guess. I can see them as clearly as if they were standing right in front of me. The one creepy thing here that I feel I should mention is, that my Mother passed away in real life, about a week and a half ago. So to see her this way in this dream was VERY strange. I also think I knew this fact while I was dreaming. Not sure, but whemn I looked at them, I felt very wierd. When I walked up to them, they did not seem to know me. They did not say anything to me. LIke I was a stranger. I recall walking away, then for some reason walking back to them. Again, they said nothing to me. I think I spoke to them, but,I have no idea what. I wish I could remember more of this. If I can, I will add.
I eventually walk away from them, and enter a room where poeple are 'dancing' around with swords. I love swords, and I know this in the dream. I walk around the room and there are different swords on the floor. I am looking for Roman one, but finally pick up a slightly different type. I cant recall it exactly. Anyway, I pick it up ,and start 'dancing' around with it. Then someone (assuming the 'teacher') said to me something like 'jump'. I try jumping HIGH in the air with it. The room is kind of roundish, and as I am trying to do this 'dancing', I see to my left a fireplace, or at least that is what it seems like. The celing is very high. I actually dont remember seeing it. Just know it was up there, way up there. The other overwhelming feeling I recall is that is seemed like I cold bar;ly move. I was sluggish. Like I could barly jump. In my dreams, I usually can fly at will, and I knew this, and it felt like I had weights on me, and was having great difficulty moving. I do this for a time, and I can not remember any more right now. I think I woke up. I am ont sure. I am drawing a blank.
Additional Comments:
I am curious why my Mom showed up in this. It just seemed strange to me. I have dreamed about her before, but this was different. I could really see her clearly, and the past thing, very strange. xX
