Classmates, please forgive me if I don't get your dream absolutely correct or your name. I was so engrossed in your dreams that I forgot to write them down right away and so did this by memory. If I don't have your dream on this list, I will add it later as well as link it to your own blog about your dream.
- Logan dreamed about Bill Crosby's heading floating while he, Logan, stood on the edge of building. Good ole Bill encouraged Logan to jump until Logan finally gave into peer pressure and did so.
- Ashley has stuck to tradition and involved puppies into one of the class activities that we will all most remember. She dreamed of giving birth to a black puppy after enduring the longest pregnancy known to man as I have never heard of a pregnancy lasting years.
- Hannah's most memorable dream showed her parents being kidnapped by the Sesame Street Monsters to the basement and the subsequent rescue attempts.
- Rachel introduced us to the idea of lucid dreams. Her lucid dream incorporated clones of her family and her quest to kill the clones while finding her real parents and brother. It was very relieving to find that she succeeded but disturbing that she had to repeat the process with her entire town!
- Derek told of his childhood dream of sitting alone on top of a hill and being able to look out and see nothing but land before him.
- Abbie spoke of her dreams within a dream.
- Sara will be showing a film of her dream at some point this semester.
- On retrospect, I couldn't quite remember Jenny's dream as for some reason I can only remember that she dreamt it in Idaho this summer during the fires that raged over this part of the nation.
- Matthew dreamt about Reggis and him hanging out.
- Lana won a gold medal but the part that has stumped us all is for what she won this precious prize.
- Pirates are the thing that Hunter's subconscious had him dream about. He told us a tale of pirates and being hung to death on the ship.
- Sydney revealed to us her fear of fish and how she is forced to face this fear in her sleeping state.
Professor Sexson spoke of Charles Addams and his skill with nesting in his cartoons, specifically the one using mirrors in a barbershop. He asked is any of us could find it. I have found one but I am not completely sure that this is exactly the one but check it out any ways as it is pretty cool looking. Click here to link to a better copy of the photo that I wasn't able to copy onto my blog.
Another place that we have all see nesting throughout our life is on the Quaker Oats box. Look carefully next time you go to the grocery shopping and you will be able to see how the label has been nested indefinitely.
