I had this dream whilst on vacation with two friends in Austria; in the dream, we had just gotten in from a night out with other friends, and we went into this house that we were apparently staying in, but I had never seen before IRL; in the dream it is exactly 11:00PM and pitch black outside. It was kind of split-level I suppose, mostly white on the inside with linoleum floors, and the stairs from the front door led directly downstairs into the living room area. The other two girls headed downstairs, and I was about to follow them when I heard a knock at the door; I turned around to unlock it, when the girls were telling me not to because it wasn't safe. I said, "but what if it's one of us [our friends] and they need to get inside?" and they said, "no, it's not, just don't answer it," so I shrugged and followed them downstairs. Almost immediately thereafter (we are in the kitchenette area now which is directly open to the living room), some figures rush by the open window in the kitchen and it suddenly shuts; the figures were blurry but like heads (an adult and two children I believe), with milky white complexion and no hair (I guess you could compare them to Voldemort in the Harry Potter movies for reference); they then appeared at the kitchen door (a glass door that opened to the outside); the door was closed, and the figures (now full bodies visible, in black flowy robe-type things) began knocking on the glass door and trying to speak to us, but it was muffled and they were also speaking in Dutch so we couldn't understand them; we were responding in what little Dutch we knew and some English saying that we didn't speak Dutch and couldn't understand what they were saying; as I turned around to walk away, the adult figure's hand reached through the glass (similarly to how a ghost's would) and grabbed me by the wrist; I tried to pull away but the grasp just became tighter and I started to panic and get really frightened as I frantically tried to run away but couldn't get out of its hand--then I woke up. I remember waking up absolutely terrified and looking frantically around the room, almost immediately realizing it had been a nightmare, and afraid as hell to go back to sleep because I didn't want it to pick up where it left off; I tried to calm myself down and finally got back to sleep a little while later, but don't remember the dreams following.

    So this guy I'm currently talking to...I don't need to write the story of my life here but basically from past dating experiences I am terrified about guys randomly losing interest and disappearing...so every time I email or otherwise message this guy and I don't get a response within a few hours I automatically start freaking out and thinking the worst and it drives me insane making me SO freaking anxious...so last night for hours before I went to bed I kept brooding over this and constantly checking my email like a freakazoid until I finally went to sleep...and ALL NIGHT LONG I literally dreamed that I kept checking my email and phone constantly for a response and never got one...it kept waking me up in the middle of the night but I still thought it was all real...so Idk where this part came in but I guess we finally got back in touch and everything was normal, and we met up and were talking in person and we were in the city sitting on this wall and talking, and all of a sudden he looks at me and just starts kissing me, and it was fricken amazing, I was so happy...

    Then out of the blue, Idk where this came from but I was in the grocery store shopping for this diet I was going on, and specifically trying to find some form of salmon but it was all super expensive so I was running around the entire store trying to decide which one was the most affordable, and the guy was still with me trying to follow me and help me out but kind of laughing that I was putting so much effort into this--then another random change...

    I all of a sudden ended up back at home (again, my old childhood home, which is 90% of the time the house that is in my dreams, Idk why), even though I am currently living abroad IRL--it was just me and my family now; IRL I have been waiting for a package from home for over a month now and it still hasn't arrived (>.<;;), so turns out it got returned to sender and it was on the front porch of the house, and it was a HUGE like seacrate sized cardboard box, and I was shocked, and because IRL yesterday my mom told me she had sent me a massive amount of chapstick, in the dream I was thinking, "wow, she wasn't kidding about how much chapstick she sent me..." xP So for whatever reason, I climbed on top of the box and started posing for pictures my sister was taking, then again in front of the box, and just kept thinking to myself how I never would have been able to fit the package into the house I am living in overseas anyway, or even have it delivered there, and it was good that it got returned because my mom got her massive amount of shipping costs refunded...then at some point after this my sister and I ended up in my childhood room (again, a recurring happening in my dreams), and we were playing with something I don't remember, but I think it involved a lot of little tiny green-colored balls or something, and we were also playing with it with the cat that currently IRL lives with me overseas, and thennnn I think the dream ended here...and then I woke up, initially confused on where I was, but after a few second looked around and realized that I was in my room IRL in my overseas residence...and just immediately went back to thinking about the email and was so pissed off that that kiss wasn't real... >.<""";;;;

    Couldn't quite come up with a title for this, I had three completely separate dreams this morning, each completely irrelavent to one another, and clearly separated by me waking up in between each one. They kind of freaked me out so didn't want to post them this morning but now I've gotten over it a little bit so here we go:

    1.) This was an eerily horrifying and creepy dream, it was like straight-up out of something you'd see in a horror film. From what I recall, I did not play any part in this dream, I just watched the whole thing...the whole storyline is kind of blurry by now, but I clearly remember some sort of mad man mass murderer or something posing as an intern or something at a hospital--he really kidnapped two other men and knocked them unconscious and hooked them up to IVs and oxygen masks in two hospital beds and the men were aware of what was going on, but so fatigued or "out of it" or perhaps weary from whatever drugs were being used that they couldn't really move or hardly open their eyes to do anything about it...one of the men the murderer had hooked up to some oxygen mask that I don't remember was possibly slowly suffocating him or what, but he was knocked completely unconscious, whereas the other victim on the other bed was slightly awake but still unable to move or completely comprehend the situation; the murderer, still disguised as a doctor (white coat, stethoscope, etc.) replaced this man's oxygen mask with a tank of just concentrated chloroform gas, and placed it over his nose and mouth so that he couldn't get out of it with the intention of slowly killing him. This victim looked around and slyly got ahold of the stopper clip thingy on the tube (you know the little clamp that constricts flow from IV or other hooked-up tubes) and turned it off, but the mad man caught him and just turned it back on and tied the man's hands down so he could no longer reach it. The murderer waited in a chair for the men to die, and wondering why it was taking so long for the one with the chlorofom mask to go, he looked over and realized that the mask had come undone, and did it again and then slipped out of the room; he went to a nurse receptionist and in tears expressed that since he was a new intern he made the mistake of not properly hooking up a patient's oxygen mask and regrettably accidentally killed him (although really the man was still alive in the other room); he said this just to do away with any suspiscion later, and the nurse believed him and said quietly that it was not his fault since he was a new intern; she instructed him to go back and just call the time of death. He then, sobbing, asked her which room it was in, and she said, teary-eyed, "1800." He then, with an evil smile of satisfaction on his face, returned to the room and realized that the man in the chloroform mask managed to break loose and free both himself and the other victim and then they were out of sight. This randomly jumped to some time in the future after the incident, and now I was actively in the dream; I and a few others (a couple familiar, a couple not) were cooking soup in the kitchen of my former house IRL, and I and one of the people (who IRL was one of my high school teachers) had certain keychains that were shaped like kitchen appliances (I know, this is where it starts to get typical silly-dreamy), and were comparing stories of past horrific similar incidences we had all witnessed...and then there was a flash back to the hospital, with the evil man in costume again, just holding the chloroform mask and I was now in the patient's position (imagine watching it now from a first-person perspective), and as he placed the mask over my face I was watching the chloroform flow out slowly as I was now the patient in the bed...then I woke up, very slowly, taking a few seconds to open my eyes and realize that I was now awake...it was really disturbing as I thought about the dream then but also very intriguing, so not as horrifying as past nightmares I've had...

    2.) This one is very vague. Really all I remember is being in a very large swimming pool with a ton of other people around my age (again, a few familiar, some not), and the purpose of swimming in this pool was to qualify for a job or something, and it started off great but then people started yelling at me and critisizing that I didn't belong there or something, and then somehow I think it flashed back again to my old house IRL and next to the window in my parents' room...

    3.) I have to admit this one was pretty awesome. I didn't really realize what it was in reference to until I woke up, which is even more interesting. There was some sort of village, but full of tourists, I guess similar to a RennFest type of thing, everyone in medieval costume and doing it all up; I believe all the tourists really thought it was some sort of faire or recreational exhibit, but unbeknownst to them it was actually a real village in danger, as a villain and a dragon were at large who had kidnapped and locked up the children of the king (so the princess and her two younger siblings, I believe a boy and a girl, all relatively young); somehow, I'm not sure how, but I ended up being the one on the mission to save everyone, and I was carrying a sword and shield and dressed in a green and brown tunic, and was able to jump very high and quickly and almost soar as I was doing so, I just remember in the dream what a liberating feeling it gave me leaping so freely and successfully into the air from one place to another. At one point, completely out of context there was a CD player playing a pretty awesome and fitting soundtrack, then when I saw the tourists glancing over suspiciously, I walked over and took the CD out and tried to nonchalantly have everyone go about their business...this continued for awhile, going through rooms and and in and around towers...then I eventually woke up, and almost immediately realized I had been dreaming, but this time contemplated for a few seconds, and then finally made the connection IRL, which I still find it very intriguing that I was completely unaware while the dream was actually taking place--I was in fact myself, but I was Link in Kokiri Forest from OoT...the village was identical, so was my outfit, sword and shield, and even the CD I had gotten out of the player was the exact OoT soundtrack. Call that kind of nerdy, but it was a pretty awesome dream regardless!
