dreams

I had 2 really vivid dreams last night, one of which was a nightmare that was so strange I can't really put it into words. The other one was actually kind of interesting and I'm going to try to describe it here because it was so sci-fi. It was really Doctor Who so I could probably pitch this to the BBC later on, lol.

It starts out with my family and I going to watch an IMAX 3D movie (I remember this fact because at the beginning I didn't have the proper glasses on, then I put them on but instead of things becoming clearer they just became blurrier and I had to adjust the focus/zoom and stuff.) The movie was a sequel, and they had this "previously on..." bit at the beginning where they said an alien civilisation sent a huge spaceship to Earth to help mankind explore space, but it took mankind 60 years just to learn how to turn it on. And once they turned it on, they found a map of the universe in the system, except it was way larger than the observable universe, and they realised that this ship came from somewhere that was outside of the observable universe. So they launch the ship and try to reach the outside of the universe.

Fast-forward centuries, probably, and the ship is a city / space station thing where a lot of people live. But something goes wrong and it's infiltrated by spies? So these 2 agents (who are these 2 guys from CollegeHumor) have to go in and wake everybody up from this weird reverie. They basically just have to shove everyone they see and yell "It's just an illusion, wake up!" At this point I become one of the two agents so I'm running along all these corridors that look like old palaces, like Versailles etc, and ballrooms with chandeliers. Sometimes there are spies hiding behind the people, using them as shields, so I have to shove the people away. And sometimes when I shoved them there was a prickly sensation of pain in my palm because some of them had acupuncture needles sticking out of them? Anyway, we got to this one room that looked like a waiting room, and there were all these people muttering, and it turns out they all think they're in London. So I had to jump over seats and be like "It's not London, wake up! You're in danger!" One of the people was Mme Shaw, my French teacher, and she was dressed in a cardigan and looked older and very sad, and seeing her like that made me feel so sad. I couldn't wake her up. Then I don't remember the rest of the dream, I must've woken up. I went to pee and came back, and had an unrelated nightmare.

Oh and Macaulay Culkin was in there somewhere too.
