Last Bridge Blog Question Ever: John & Breje

August 15, 2012

1.)    My relationship with water is cool because I don’t have a problem with it. I like drinking water; it’s really good for you and cleans your system.  I love taking showers and brushing my teeth with water. Makes me feel fresh. By me swimming in water I feel it’s important when you know how to swim really good, you can feel a certain way of joyfulness and happiness. For the ones that don’t know how to swim should learn.  At some point you going have to learn and know how to survive when you in water. So you can feel something when you are swimming. I sometimes don’t worry about the future of drinking water. Just be careful what type of water you drink.

2.)    When I get accepted to Columbia, I think by me being myself willed make me stand out because I’m not trying to be somebody else and its real.

Adam Guerrero:Question 15

Adam Guerrero: Question 15

            My relationship with water is good, I have no problem with it, but I’m not much for swimming, I just don’t trust it. I like drinking water, it tastes good, I think that drinking water is healthy for you; it purifies the body on the inside. I like bathing in water, I like looking at the beautiful water, and it’s amazing that most of this world is consumed by water. Whenever we have a drought I can tell, because there is less water, and the days are hotter. I think that the future of water will be the same, unless people change the way it is made. Overall I like water, it tastes good, it’s beautiful to look at, and it’s fun to play in.

Last bridge blog question: Breje & jonn

                                                                                      Last bridge blog question

In Chicago, water is both obvious and often overlooked. We used it every day of our lives. Without water we will not be alive. 60% of your body is made from water. Water is the key to human kind. The relationship I have with water is off and on. Like I didn’t really think about how much water I’m am using sometimes. I keep the water running for hours sometimes before I get into the shower and I stay in the shower about an hour long. I used my dishwasher a lot too. Sometimes I think what if we do run out later down the road. What do we turn to then? And with that idea that’s makes me turn off the water when I’m getting ready for school or just washing my dog in the bathtub or cleaning my car. I think it is important to know when some area around you are having drought because we all stay on this earth and used the same water.  

Sometimes I worry about the future of drinking water because lake Michigan when I go to the beach the water looks old and dirty and under safe to used or be in. I think the water looks like this way because of us not caring about what we put in to or do it to. We throw food, bottoms, paper, cans and etc. into it. Even sometimes I see at the beach little child and older people using the bath into. And didn’t think about what we are doing until it is too late.

                                                                           Standing out

Once I get accepted at Columbia, the one way I will stand out from the rest of the students is by showing passion with learning new things, have an open mind about stuff I even tried. Another way I’m going to stand out is by getting to know my teacher and showing that I care what their have to say and teach. Another way is by being passion within my body of art. And do things different with it.  How I planned to make that happen is by staying me and staying out going within my class. And the reason why I want stand out is because that will help me with my school work and help me out with my dreams.

ol boy tre

When I do get accepted to Columbia everybody will know who Trevon Alexander Keithley is and I plan on making that happen as soon as move in day gets here. I want to be the drake of Columbia College. You know how you don’t know EVERYBODY in young money but you know a few of them and Drake is one that everybody knows, yeah that’s how I want to be known at Columbia.   The guy that is good at what he does and everybody enjoys talking with him and being around him. I feel that I will stand out for a few different reasons. For one I know that I can make people laugh and that I’m a pretty laid back guy to be around. People will know me as the comedian of class.  People will also know me because of my talents. I will make sure that everybody knows my talents and that I’m good at using them. I also want to be known for the many good deeds and or things I have worked on and done. I want people to know that I’m a nice guy at the end of the day. People should know me as Trevon as the guy that everybody loves and works hard on anything that’s put in front of him.

I'm gonna cry!

                When I get accepted to Columbia, I will stand out because of the comfort I’ve gained in this atmosphere. I’m in the habit of doing my homework every night, and I’m actually excited about school. I feel that a lot of incoming freshmen feel panicked because they don’t what to expect. I also feel that this program has given me a good idea of where my writing and work lies as far as college-level work is concerned. I think I have a good understanding of what my teachers will be looking for from me.

                In high school, I would not be caught dead doing my homework. To me, it was a joke. I already understood what was going on in class; I didn’t need to do it. My teachers grew very frustrated with me because they could see I understood subject matter and that I was smart. I could not bring myself to get on a schedule of doing homework after school and my grades suffered. Now, I do it because I love it, and I can. I feel like homework is a way to show my teachers I care. Instead of just acing the test and never doing homework, I think a lot about what I learn in class here at Columbia. I want to do well.

                I’m excited for the fall semester to start. I know that my classes are going to be fun, but really I’m anxious to get started on all the work. It’s just another excuse to show off my awesome talents. Bridge has really built up my confidence about coming to college. It’s also increased my confidence in me, and what I’m capable of. I feel a lot of incoming freshmen don’t have that. So, I know I’ll be a step ahead of them as far as that goes.

                This bridge program has not only strengthened my writing, but it has prepared me for writing in my actual classes here. I know I can write, and I’d say I’m pretty good at organizing thought on paper, but now I understand why I do that, and that this is what college teachers are looking for.

                I’m almost grateful that I did badly in high school. Let’s see why: I got an adorable baby puppy for 8 dollars who will be my best friend for life, I met amazing people I plan to keep in contact with at school, and I’m not afraid of the unknown of college anymore, because I know now, for the most part at least. Not many people can say that during their transition from high school to college.

                So, thank you Bridge Program. You saved my dreams of coming to college, and you’ve prepared me to be more successful than I thought I could be. Jonn, you’re an awesome English teacher, and I really learned a lot from you. Colleen, thank you for making us dig deeper and put thought into what we see or say or do. Both of you have made me probably twice as articulate as I was before. And to all my girls and boys in Bridge, you guys are inspiring. You are all so hard working, and I can tell each and every single one of you is original and passionate for something incredible. Every day I see you all it puts a smile on my face and I’ve learned so much from all of you. I’m really happy you can accept me for the crazy, random little girl that I am. It means a lot.

LOVE YOU GUYSSSSSSSSS!

STAND OUT!!! BE PROUD

Question#1:

            My relationship with water is that I drink it, I shower in it, I cook with and I use it for watercolor paint.  It’s important to me because without water, how can we bath? How can we cook? How can we hydrate our bodies? Answer is you can’t because without water we can’t do any of those things. I do worry about the future of drinking water, because water comes from the river that is clean but if you take it out of the river and place it in a bottle your contaminating purified water by placing chemicals and getting rid of the minerals. But, drinking bottle water is like drinking regular water. Being half native, my family believes in many things. Water essentially represents healing, serenity and peace according to my Cherokee tribe. It means washing away something from the past and purifying it. I love the rain. And personally every time it begins to rain, I would look at out my window and watch every drip fall from the sky as if the clouds are shedding tears.

Question#2:

            I have no doubt of getting accepted in Columbia, because I know that I’m going to get there if I work hard and believe. Many students here are artsy, creative, aspiring, fun and unique individuals. But, one way that I would stand out from Columbia students would have to be not only through music, dance and art. I would stand out with my own sense of unique style, I love fashion always have at a young age, I love to dress up if I’m going somewhere it makes me feel confident.

My Passion... -Zullay

            I think a way I’ll stand out from everyone else could be making my own style of photography and making sure that it’s something that no one has ever seen in any other photographer before. That way, people at Columbia that are into Fashion Design or need a head shot for a special project could come to me and I’d gladly take a picture for them and take it the way they want it exactly. Of course I know that college students don’t have a lot of moneyL, but if I take pictures for students, if they wanted to pay me I’d gladly take it, if they don’t have the money its fine. Either way it’s a win-win situation. They get their pictures and I get my portfolio started up with their pictures in them which helps me gain more experience and lets my teachers and future bosses, or people looking for photographers, a chance to look at my work and hire me in the near future!

Columbia Baby Devay Myatt

COLUMBIA BABY!!!!!!!!!!

When I get into Columbia College I know that there will be a lot of different types of people that will really stand out and be different. I feel that you can only be different in your own way because you’re the one who makes it happen. For me I feel that when I get into Columbia, matter of fact there is no when I know I got into Columbia but any ways.

                When I get to Columbia I think that my skills are going to be the main thing that stands out. I’m sure there are a lot of people that are going to Columbia for music but we all have different styles and I feel that’s all that really matters. I feel that standing out isn’t something that we should really think of its making a difference and being different is what really matters the most. The way I will make this happening in being different and standing out is the easiest way I can think of just being me. Being yourself is already something that stands out every single day.

Standing out is not like trying to be like someone else it’s just doing you  going to Columbia to do what you are there for and that’s all you need just doing you and being yourself no extra stuff.

when you see me in the fall i will have blue hair :) taylor

Question 1:

To sum up this question, to me it seems like it’s asking what does water do for you? But what do I know, for me, water keeps me clean, I bathe in it, bush my teeth in it and wash my face with it. I use it to fix my macaroni and cheese, spaghetti and greens. I don’t really swim mostly because I can’t. I don’t have a dog so I don’t care about that, well my sister has a shorkie, his names bailey, it’s the cutest this ever. I don’t think I’ve ever experienced a drought, but that’s some serious stuff. I don’t worry about the future drinking water because that’s none of my concern, if I had say so about what happens to the water and crap like that then I would totally worry about the future of it. I don’t have any spiritual connections with water. I love playing in the rain, but I doubt that it’s just going to stop raining one day… that would be weird.

Question 2:

If I get accepted into Columbia I’m going to put blue highlights in my hair, I’m going to get a tongue and belly ring, I’m going to get a bar and more tattoos (I want like a hello kitty bow tie in the middle of my collar bone but I don’t think I’m going to get that because then I wouldn’t be able to get a job)….im pretty sure that’s going to make me stand out. I’m going to either have my sister do my hair or go to a shop.  And then I’m going to go to a tattoo parlor to get my tongue and belly ring, bar and more tattoos.. I always said that I was going to get 5 more holes in my left hear and 3 more in my right ear, then get the ear rings with letters on them and put my first name on my left ear and last name on my right ear… that would be awesome.

Giberish... : Mario Thompson

When I get accepted into Columbia I feel that I will definitely stand out from other students. I feel what will make me stand out most is my level of creativity. A lot of people can be creative in their own way, but I feel that I take “thinking outside of the box” to a whole new level. I strive on being creative and being able to come up with fresh ideas quickly. It’s something that I take pride in. I also feel that I will stand out from a lot of the music production students because I have been involved with music since I could read and write. Some other students may be able to compare with me but the fact that I am always unique with everything I do sets me apart. I also love being around other creative people and sharing ideas. I work well with people who are naturally creative and don’t have to try very hard to come up with good ideas. Another thing that I feel makes me stand out, are the things that interest me. I am a very complex person. I like a lot of the same things as other kids my age, but I also indulge in other things that kids my age wouldn’t involve themselves in. An example of this is that I often read and study the secrets of the world, like the fact the EVERYTHING is based off of numerology. I  can’t wait to start the school year and really show people what I can do.

T- time speaks on water!!!!!

Water+ my body= Trevon Alexander Keithley............ My body - water= some dirty fat guy that can dress lol.   I think water is very important and it means a whole lot to me. Not only because it does so much for us but because in use it A LOT. I drink a ton of it too. I need at least two bottles every day or I won’t feel completed. Not to mention I shower a lot too. I shower maybe like three times a day. This is because i always do something that involves me getting dirty or sweaty. When football season was in I showered three times a day faithfully. Between practice, school, and game days, I felt the need to shower all the time. I didn’t want to take any chances of getting musty in the middle of the day. Not only that but I generally like smelling good. I do worry about the future of drinking water especially with all the pollution going on and stuff. If we are not able to drink water in the future man o man we are in for some trouble.

Last question!

            Water is very important to me but I also don’t think about conserving it when I use it. I have an obsession with using too much water. Like when brushing my teeth I leave it running and sometimes I even take a hour to an hour and a half shower. Yes I know that I should not be using so much. I do realize how hot it’s been this summer with the drought and power outages. I’ve been trying to make a change, and I don’t want to leave this world without doing my part to help. By using less and conserving more.

            One thing I think that will set me apart from the rest at Columbia is my dedication, in everything I do I never give up and I will continue to do this in collage.

Last.

1.What's your relationship with water? How important to you is swimming it it, drinking it, bathing in it, looking at it, cleaning the car with it, washing the dog with it, etc. etc? Do you notice when we have a drought? Do you worry about the future of drinking water? Do you have any spiritual connection with water? What about rain? What else do you do with water?

2. When you get accepted at Columbia, what is one way that you will stand out from the rest of the students and why? How do you plan on making that happen?



                      I have a faithful relationship with water. I would not be alive today if it wasn't for water. Water is the base of any thing liquid. When your born your cleaned with water. Water feeds the plants and veggies we eat. Water washes the clothes we wear and our hair and body. Without water there would have never been a water bed, pool, lake, ocean, river, bath, or shower. With out water it would limit us on ways of travel. No boats or canoes. It would also limit the species we have today like fish and sharks and whales rays shrimp sea crabs or penguin. Antarctica would've never been know for its igloos and ice caps and ice bergs because water makes ice and without ice that wouldn't exist. Without water there would be no ocean where the Titanic could sail and there wouldn't have been a n ice Berg to destroy and sink the boat to make it a legend.
       
                      When i get excepted my way of standing out will be to observe what everyone else is doing similar and o the exact opposite. I'll watch the crowd walk across the street going south and ill break from the group and walk north.

Water Devay Myatt

I LOVE WATER

My relationships with water is basically taking showers and drinking it, well unless I’m having like a water balloon fight or something. I haven’t really thought about water ever being so important for like swimming and things like that but I do know that it plays a huge role in our lives. I think that we use a lot of water by washing our cars, swimming and other activities that we use water for. I couldn’t imagine using anything else that we take subs for water though. I never really thought of how much we really use water on just random things.

In today’s world you can kind of tell when there is a drought or not because it’s like everything that you buy basically goes up in price. When there’s a drought all of the groceries go up, gas, and different other little things just go really high up in prices especially food. I don’t worry too much about the future with water because it seem like they would be trying to make the water better for the future not worst. I feel that they should start preparing the future for better water, so no I really don’t worry about the future with their water too much.

I’m not really sure what it means to have a spiritual connection with water or rain. I look at it as water is just made for many different things and if they use water in any kind of spiritual way then that’s perfectly fine with me. Rain I feel as its dirty water because it comes from the sky and we really don’t know where it comes from and it’s really salty.

Vote Water 2012

Water for me is normal, and I know that without it I will die in a week if I don’t drink. Not to mention I like swimming and without water than that would be pretty difficult if the pool had no water now would it?  I’m not, however, overly obsessed with the water like others but I do sort of notice if there is a drought if it doesn’t rain for a long period of time. We all need water or we will die, not just people but the crops needs the rain water to grow and be able to harvest  and without the crops then we’re dead anyway.  In a way, water is life without it  we are nothing.

It's your choice for how you think of water, I say that we need it end of story. Other may say that we could find some other means to live without it, so what if it hasn't rained in weeks, but then I would say, how are their gardens? Doubtful that they are in bloom so again water is life not just for humans but for plants as well so there.

Agua- Zullay

            Water to me is the root of everything we see, smell, taste, touch, and can hear. Everything comes from water, and so many people do not appreciate it. Like the lake for instance, everyone think it’s just plain old Lake Michigan where you can get in the water and go on the beach, but people don’t respect it. They eat and throw their wrappers in the water like it’s nothing. I took part In the Foster Beach cleanup for three years and it made me realize how much garbage there is on the beach. There are so many garbage cans on the beach area and people still do not take the time to put their trash where it is supposed to go. When I see this it really makes me sad and angry at the same time because the people that do this now are what are going to kill our future generations and make all of our animals become instinct in the near future. Because of so many beach cleanups I’ve done, I’m always very strict when I’m around my friends and they just throw a little gum wrapper on the floor. I will make them pick it up and throw it in the garbage.

Water sux.. Gatorade queches your thirst: Mario Thompson

Water is very important to me. A lot of people don’t really understand the value of water. In some countries people don’t have fresh water so they value it more than us Americans. The bigger picture is that life wouldn’t exist at all if there was no water on the planet. Everybody and everything needs water to survive and grow. We are all very fortunate to be able to go into a room and our house and turn water on from a faucet. I never have noticed a drought because there has never been a time that I couldn’t get water when I needed it. I don’t really have any spiritual connection with water, but even if I did it wouldn’t change how important it is to me. I often do worry about what is in the water we drink though. I read in an article that the government puts certain chemicals in our water so that people don’t live as long as they’re supposed to. There isn’t much we can do about this though. Water has recently become my favorite beverage because I don’t like to drink pop as much anymore. GO WATER!

You want em? I got em. Dripping like water.

                I love water. I think it’s beautiful. All the different shades of blue and green that reflect off the surface of the lake, it’s hard to believe what you’re seeing.

                The only problem with water is I’m afraid to be in it which is probably why I’m so fascinated by it. I day dream about what must go on under our feet. What does the floor of the lake look like? If I wasn’t afraid of water, I’d probably go down there and check it out.

                Water to me is a good time. It provides so many things to do. I enjoy fishing, and boating. I love watching other people go tubbing or skiing. It’s a gorgeous sight to see man conquer and manipulate water.  I’m jealous of those people.

                Fishing is one of my favorite pass-times. I share this interest with my father, who for as long as I can remember has been my hero. As people, we’re both quiet when it comes to talking about serious issues. My dad and I work our problems out quietly to ourselves while we fish. I love being able to share the mechanism with him. It keeps us close even when we’re not even talking to each other.

After Bridge

Once I fully move into Chicago the only thing I would be standing out would be I would already know my way around the campus and knowing what is what. Granted to the other people who have been here before me would know where to go more than me, since I only spent four weeks in the city and haven’t really been in it for very long so my knowledge don’t really expend father than just the campus and the places that we had been during the program.  How would I plan to do this, to say there is no plan involved, so I can’t really plan on already knowing where I am going.

LAST BRIDGE BLOG QUESTION EVER: Jonn & Breje

1. In Chicago, water is both obvious and often overlooked. We live near this immense body of fresh water, Lake Michigan, and the Chicago River flows through the city--it was even reversed to flow out of the lake. We depend on the lake for drinking water, for recreation of many kinds, and to make Lake Shore Drive what it is--as Sarah Vowell says, the most beautiful street in America. But it's also possible to get caught up in life and in less watery neighborhoods or suburbs and forget that all that water is there. We're frequently reminded that we are made up of (salt) water ourselves and that life began in the oceans. What's your relationship with water? How important to you is swimming it it, drinking it, bathing in it, looking at it, cleaning the car with it, washing the dog with it, etc. etc? Do you notice when we have a drought? Do you worry about the future of drinking water? Do you have any spiritual connection with water? What about rain? What else do you do with water?

Blog Question # 13

August 14, 2012

1.)    When I put on Shades I do feel cool sometimes just to have that fancy look and feel good or bad about myself. I do sometimes stare at females that look attractive more when I have shades on because they wouldn’t be able to tell anyway. I think the tent in the sunglasses affects the way you feel because the way it might look on you, you might want to act a certain way or do something such as stare at people for no reason.

2.)    I had one bad dream where I almost got eaten by a big giant spider but obviously it wasn’t real.  One good dream that I had come true was the time I met a person who I look as a role model and it was amazing because the same things in my dream happened for real. I think dreams mean what you imagine in your dream can possibly can come true if you believed in it

                                                                                   Wearing sunglasses

            When I put my sunglasses on I feel swag out. I love having matches sunglasses that goes with my shoes. I feel a lot cooler because glasses can change the way you look in a good way. And it keeps the sun out your eyes so you want run into people or things. I think the tint can have a affects the way you feel that day because it can make you feel a lot swag out then before. I love having dark tint glasses because I feel like a super star. Another reason why I like having dark shades, you can be checking someone out and didn’t feel like a creep at the end. I sometimes wear sunglasses at night to parties or just hanging out outside with my friends because cant no one tells the way you are feeling because people can tell your mood by just staring into a person eyes. Well I know I can. The darker the shades the better. The only thing that bothers me about sunglasses if the tint is too dark, you can’t tell the weather. I been at the beach a lot of times with my friends with shades on and thinking it is going to rain. And another thing that bothers me if I go into a poor lighting place I can’t see nothing that is in my way.

                                                                  Sweet Dreams or Sweet Nightmares

            When I think back to all the dreams I had in my life. It has been a lot of crazy ones. I have a lot of weird dreams before, like once me and my friend had save a cat life from a house that was in fire and the owner left it in the house to die. So my friends and I run into the house to find and save the cat. And my friends let the car stay with her about my aunt hates cats and we already have a dog. So a week later I got a phone called from my mother telling me that my friend and her family was kill and the only that the cops found was the cat and so the cat moved into my next friend house and a week later I got the same phone called. And again after that. So I tried to find the cat owner so I can bring it back to him. Once I get to the owner place, he closes the door in my face and said that cat is the devil and to light it on fire to get your friends back to live but it only be on Friday the 13th. So once that Friday came around I put the cat in a box and set it on fire. Then I woke up so I didn’t know what happen. That was one of the weirdest dreams ever. My friends and I still joke about it today. I think that dream was a nightmare too because everyone was getting kill out the blue. I really didn’t wish for that dream to come true any time soon.

Question 13: good and evil

Aug 14 2012

Question 13

            When I put on shades I feel invisible not in the sense that someone can’t see me but in the sense that they can’t see the emotion on my face. To me the eyes can tell stories and when u do not see the eyes you can see a person’s emotions. Like this guy who ride the train every morning with me and every time I look at him it seems like he’s watching me and sometimes he even smiles a little, it’s creepy. Then I wonder when I have my shades on do people think the same thing about me? Yes you use them to block the sun but they also can be used for a sense of security or style. When I’m on the train I usually put on my shade so people won’t bother me. When I wear them I feel secure. I think sunglass effect the way you feel a good pair can make you feel sexy or confident.

            In my life time I’ve had many of dreams some good some bad but two dreams that I still remember till this day I will tell one bad on good. One dream I had that I won’t forget was when I was about 10 years old I heard girls from a distance singing a son jumping rope, in my dream everything was white the house the side walk the girls dresses and so on. In the dream I was on this big sliver shinny bike at the end of the bike was a big sliver horn sparkling in the sunlight in the dream I felt as if someone was controlling me to keep going forward on the bike, people dressed in white look at me as I passed by at the end on the street was my mother her arm opened wide with a big smile on her face. In the dream I knew what was going to happen next I would run into her with the horn I tried to stop the bike but it just kept going my mother arms still opened wide with a smile on her face I ran into her the horn persing her stomach blood red blood splatter everywhere soon I saw nothing but red I won’t up with a scream. My mother was ok it was just a dream I don’t know why I had this dream I also don’t know how I couldn’t stop myself. After this dream for about a week I felt guilty of killing my mother even though it was just a dream. The next dream I had was around the same time in this dream I saw the white again but not the girls or the streets just whiteness when I look up I saw to arms come out to hold me I was not scared the arm picked me up and cradled me like a baby I knew there was a body connected to these arm but all I saw was the light the arm said nothing did nothing but I felt as if all my free worries and frustrations went away. I then fell into a deep sleep when I woke up in the morning I never felt so happy in my entire life I felt at peace with myself and with the world around me this happiness last for weeks. I’ve never been one to believe in good and evil but in this time of my life these dreams have changed the way I look at the world don’t know how or why all I know is it just did.

IDK!!!!!!!

I honestly think dreams do come to life, SOMETIMES. I have had déjà vu moments that have freaked me out honestly. Of course I have had a weird dream as well as good and bad dreams. But lately I have been having a bunch of weird dreams lol, dreams that make no sense at all and leave me asking at least a million questions. Do I think dreams mean something? yes  I do think they mean something especially the bad ones. I think dreams should go like this, bad dreams are trying to tell you something, good dreams are going to come true, and weird dreams are just something to make you laugh. I feel that if dreams were like that then everyone one would be fine with their dreams.

Adam Guerrero: Question 14

Adam Guerrero: Question 14

            Well I haven’t wore shades in a long long time, it’s been 12 years since the last time I wore shades, so I was 8 years old in the year 2000, because in 2001 I got glasses and I remember I was in third grade. But I remember when I wore shades; I did feel cool when I wore them, I liked the way they looked, I liked the different colors they had for shades, and I liked the fact they protect your eyes from the sun. But now I want to get some sunglasses, because now they have where I can get my prescription in the sunglasses, I want to get some Ray Ban sunglasses.                                                       

            I have had weird dreams, I have had nightmare (not in a long time), and I have had good dreams. I think dreams are just projections in our mind that are created by our brains, taking bits and pieces of what is real in our life and what is not real. I think dreams can be interpreted into a song or a melody, or a story, or art, or even a movie. I have had some dreams that I thought I was watching a movie that I created and it actually felt that is was a movie in real life, but it was a dream. I do wish that some dreams would come true.

Max Keeble

I think that dreams are for good things and for bad things. When having a dream I feel that it can also come true if you really want it to you just have to push for that goal. I have had many of dreams that were good and bad and they all happen for a reason.

The craziest dream that I have had, that I will never forget was after watching the movie “Max Keeble”. The dream was funny but scary at the same time. After watching that movie and seeing the ice cream man chase them throughout the whole movie it was funny until it happened to me in my dream. In my dream I was walking down the street with some friends and an ice cream man pulled up on the side of us and asked did we want some ice cream. I said no and my friends bought some. Then I see my friend take the ice cream and throw it at the truck and the next thing I know was the truck was following us. I started to run and cut through people’s back yards and run my fastest. That bad part about this dream was it was like I can really feel the dream and me like running. Well to make this story short I did end up getting caught by the ice cream man but nothing really happened he just made me wash his car shaking my head.
I wish that all of the good dreams I have had would come true because it’s like I already see it in my head so why not just make something so good come true to real life. Now all the bad dreams can stay where they were so I would never have to worry about them a day in my life.

What is a Dream? -Zullay

            I have always been fascinated with dreams. I think when you dream something it either has something to do with what you want to happen, what may happen in the future, or something that can be interpreted into something else. Dreaming certain things is hard to interpret because it can mean so many things. I think people who interpret dreams do have some idea of what they are saying about the dream but may not always know exactly what a person’s dream meant.

            I once had a weird dream. I was about 10 years old. That night I was sleeping with my mom. I don’t remember most of it but I do remember that I dreamt a lady in a light blue dress with dark brown wavy hair and wings was calling me from a distance telling me to move the night stand next to my mom’s bed so that she could open the glass door. Everything about her was so peaceful and it seemed right so I got up and moved the desk. I remember moving the desk in my dream but I don’t remember ever getting up and actually moving the desk. I WAS SLEEP-WALKING! The weird thing about it was that my mom never woke up either! And my mom is a very light sleeper. Right when I moved the desk in my sleep I woke up and found myself standing next to the desk. For some reason I got the chills and I was a little afraid as to why I was standing there, so I went to bed again. The next morning my mom woke up and asked me why the desk was moved so far from the bed and when I told her that a lady in a blue dress with wings told me to move it, she was stunned.

            I never really know how to interpret that dream because knew why the lady wanted me to move night stand in the first place. Why did she need to get in and who was she? My mom thinks it was an angel.

Here are some common dream interpretations:

Animals often represent the part of your psyche that feels connected to nature and survival. Being chased by a predator suggests you're holding back repressed emotions like fear or aggression.

Babies can symbolize a literal desire to produce offspring, or your own vulnerability or need to feel loved. They can also signify a new start.

Being chased is one of the most common dream symbols in all cultures. It means you are feeling threatened, so reflect on who is chasing you (they may also be symbolic) and why they are a possible threat in real life.

Exams can signify self-evaluation, with the content of the exam reflecting the part of your personality or life under inspection.

Death of a friend or loved one represents change (endings and new beginnings) and is not a paranormal prediction of any kind. If you are recently bereaved, it may be an attempt to come to terms with the event.

Falling is a common dream symbol that relates to our anxieties about letting go, losing control over a situation, or somehow failing after a success.

Shades and Werid Shit!:P

Breje

Question#1:

            When I put on shades, I do feel cool I’m sure everyone does or no one cares they put on shades to block their eyes from the sun rays. No I don’t stare at anyone, unless he’s a really cute guy that I like but no because I don’t really like it because I would not want anyone to do the same to me “I’ll get creeped out.” Do I think that Sunglasses affect the way I feel?? Um…I don’t really know I haven’t thought about it, but if I have to say I would say no.

Question#2:

            Yes, in fact I had the weirdest dream last night. I dreamed that I fell down a hole that led me to a magical, scary twisted world where everything was unusual. Yea! I know what you’re thinking, sounds like Alice in Wonderland, Right? Well anyway once I entered the world I stumbled across my dream guy that looked like a hotter version of Taylor Lautner asking him “What is this place?” He didn’t really respond when I was trying to get his attention. Suddenly the colors of the universe started to fade into black and white. Random but then a guy with a knife came up to me, tried to stab me as I was running to get away. I fell down another hole and fell into a movie screen, and was playing a scene in a scary movie. That concluded my dream I woke up “I’m like WTF? Just happened? This was a really weird dream. I wish that some of my dreams would come true, like my dream for my doll idea, my dream of the perfect guy and my dream of being successful in life by being a model, actress and a music entertainment reporter.

            Some dreams I do think have, a meaning but other times I don’t. A dream is merely psychological thoughts of the brain.

Save Me From the Monsters

To really go back into my head there was this one dream that kept happening night after night, pretty much actually the same. I would be walking somewhere, don’t really remember where, in the dark and I would just get grabbed by someone. Being forced to follow him (was able to hear his voice, didn’t know who it was though) no matter how much I tried to fight him off, I was overpowered, no hope in fighting. What was going to happen to me? I wondered, just trying to figure out what was going on and if I could make it out of this alive.

The next thing I know I would be changed in a room which had a bed and a toilet, nothing else. A door way was at the far end of the room but I couldn’t reach it due to the chain on my wrist. The farthest I could go would be the toilet and the bed other than that I was stuck. No hope in moving around unless I wanted to break my wrist to get out of the shackles that was confiding me to the room.

I would try to scream for help but there was no point, no one could hear me. There was nothing I was able to do. Not really having much food or water I had gave up on hope. Did anyone even know I was missing? Is anyone trying to find me? Am I ever going to get home?  All of these things would rush though my head. It’s been weeks and I haven’t seen the light of day, and I just sit there on the bed not even trying to be heard again since I been screaming till my voice went and it was still gone. Just sitting there waiting for death to find me and take me to the “next life”

Granted this dream has about two endings:  one where I wake up just before I was about to die, and when I would be saved. Someone noticed that I was gone and stopped at nothing until he found me. Sure by the time he did find me I was pretty much half dead anyway but still breathing, alive. Being carried out of the room and into the world again, in his arms I could never feel safer.

To say I am quite happy that this dream had not came to me in months, but sadly it is one of those dreams that stay with me, no matter how many times I want it to go away.

Call me Mrs. Sandman

                I love the crap out of dreams. I think they are so fascinating. Your dreams can say so much about you. For instance, I have reoccurring dreams about my teeth falling out. Apparently, it means I’m afraid of getting older. That may or may not be true, but for some reason my subconscious mind is creating these images in my head and I wish I knew why.

                Have you ever heard of sleep paralysis? It. Is. Intense. I’ve had it before twice. It’s when there’s a sort of disconnect between your brain and your body. So basically, your mind is awake but you can’t move your body because it doesn’t realize it’s supposed to be awake with your brain.

                Tale tell signs of sleep paralysis are not being able to move, being in a dream state but you know you’re awake, and feeling as though there’s an intruder in the room. Already, it sounds pretty freaky right?

                One night, I had just fallen asleep when I heard the crappy AM/FM radio on my phone turn on. I tried to move to turn it off and immediately realized that I could not move a single muscle in my body. Then it hit me that there was no way my phone radio could turn on like that, and I’m pretty sure there wasn’t even a radio on my phone.

                I began to panic. I couldn’t move, I was trying to talk but it came out in jumbled up jibberish, and I felt that there was someone sitting on my legs. I kept trying to open my eyes to see who it was but everything was blurry because I couldn’t get them open all the way.

                Suddenly I felt a cold breathe in my ear. Like someone was whispering in it, it tickled, but the breath was so cold and tingly. It felt like there was a snow storm inside of my ear. I remember wrestling a little, trying to break away from the cold feeling in my ear when it started to talk.

                YEAH, THE COLD, CREEPY, TINGLY VOICE STUCK IN MY HEAD.. BEGAN TO TALK TO ME. Do you know how horrifying that is? I could’ve sworn there was a ghost talking to me. I did not know how I felt about that.

                The words trickled into my ear like ice, “I am your brother.” First things first, what? I don’t have any brothers. I tried to say, “You’re not my fucking brother.” But it came out sounding something more like, emmmnahterfukerbrozzzzzzz. So telling the ghost to fudge off was not working.

                I could still feel the icicles melting in my ear, but it wasn’t saying anything else. I kept trying to fight the paralysis, knowing that there was something in the room now and I had to get out. I had pangs of panic and adrenaline running in and out of my heart like a busy kitchen. At this point, I honestly believed that there was a force, or presence, or person sitting on me.

                Finally, I broke free. I immediately sat up. I was breathing heavily, preparing to run from the ghost, intruder, or whatever it was. Instead, I saw my room. My plain old, just-how-I-left- it room. My sister was sound asleep in her bed across the room from me.

                The adrenaline drew it’s lines back from my heart, and I began to take deep breaths. I rationalized that it was all sleep paralysis. It was normal, just a common malfunction of the brain.

                The next day, I was having a droning conversation about my parents’ divorce with my mom. I’m assuming that we were talking about family and children because my mom mentioned a miscarriage she had. The first time my parents tried for a baby, they lost it late in the pregnancy. They said I would’ve had an older brother right now, because it was a boy.

YOu cant see me!!!!!!!

I love wearing shades because no one knows what you are looking at or who you are looking at. I especially like to wear them in parties and when I’m walking around outside. It does make me feel cool in a way and it makes me stay calm. When I have shades on I tend to be very quiet and observant. This is something I enjoy doing because you see a lot of things you don’t normally see. Anytime I am playing the drums outside of church I like to put my shades on so that everybody wants to know more about me. It sounds strange but it helps attract more women lol. When I am playing the drums and I’m killing it, females find it hot and they often want to get to know the drummer. It’s a fact that out of the whole band the lead singer and the drummer get the most love. I like to play and look at everybody out in the audience while they don’t know if im looking at them or not. Then at the end of the show the girls who want to talk to me are nervous because they don’t know if I have noticed them or not. But this applies to me when I dj as well. Anytime I dj I like to put shades on because once again if I am killing it they are going to want to know who I am.  Shades put me on my level for the most part. If im going out and I have one shades you better believe it’s going to be a good day.
