Me

My photo
Boston, Massachussetts, United States
I'm not limited to the blank canvas I was born as. My life is an eclectic melange of vivid colour. I float in a sea of multifarious musings, ranging from worlds of lime green skies and copper stars to winged objects and fairy dust. I am the flirtatiousness of cherry chap-stick, the depths of the cerulean ocean and the violet skies of Monet. I am the brooding dark green of dense foliage, the crimson tint in a blushing girl’s cheeks; the purple of bruised limbs. The complexity of my thoughts keeps evolving, I grow and shrink alternately. I cannot be contained or restrained. The French language is my drug and acne is my worst enemy. I laugh a little too much and am a romantic in the extreme sense. I’m likely to steal the stars from the sky, but my aims remain grounded in reality. I can’t be pigeonholed into a single stereotype, because all labels apply to me at different points in time.

Dream

Recently, I had a dream about a new friend. She and I met at some mehendi ceremony kind of thing (possibly an engagement) and she hugged me in this really happy way. Next thing I knew, we were on some sort of road trip, watching Sex and the City (:S) in a car. Then, in my dream, we took a detour at this illegal VISA place for some reason and I nearly got into loads of trouble and nearly got kicked out of University. But then since I was upset, she bought me a bubble-blowing thing. Yeah, that's it. :P

Dreams always interest me, so I've decided to pull this one apart in terms of its symbols. Just for fun :)


Engagement 

To dream that you are at an engagement ceremony represents sexual or relationship needs. You may be trying to resolve your feelings of loneliness. Alternatively, it symbolizes your commitments and desires for security. If you are unmarried, the dream may indicate your desires for some form of commitment in an existing relationship or desire for a new one.


OK, for me, this interpretation is spot on. Boyfriend keeps going absentee on me and I really do miss how committed he was when he was still here. I mean, I want this to be 'distance makes the heart grow fonder', not 'out of sight, out of mind.' We only speak like once in 5 days and even our e-mails are so irregular. So this is completely true - while I don't doubt that he loves me, I do seek some kind of resolution for how lonely I get without him physically present.

New 

To dream of new things or people signifies that you are developing a new identity and developing new strengths. You are becoming more emotionally mature. Alternatively, you may be on a life path that is unfamiliar to you. Perhaps there is a new lesson that you need to learn. In general, dream of new people and new places correspond to what is new in your waking life. It refers to something that is different or unfamiliar.

Again, this is true. SS is a completely new friend and I haven't ever even met her, but then I guess that represents the fact that she is new in my waking life. I also think that I need more emotional maturity if I can carry on a long distance relationship (also a new thing to me) and I'm University-bound, so there are obviously many things for me to learn there. It'll be a completely new life. 

Traveling 

To dream that you are traveling, represents the path toward your life goals. It also parallels your daily routine and how you are progressing along. Alternatively, traveling signifies a desire to escape from your daily burdens. You are looking for a change in scenery, where no one has any expectations of you. Perhaps it is time to make a fresh start. To dream that you are traveling in a car with another person signifies that you will make new and fun friends and have exciting adventures.

OK this actually SCARED me with how accurate it is! I mean, think about it. My daily routine is KILLING me with this University stuff and I just want to throw it all away and bury myself in a sea of alcohol and parties (not that I drink or anything. But I wish I would drink just so I could forget all this if even for 5 minutes) I AM looking for a change in scenery, and I'm SICK of everyone's expectations of me.  I mean I single-handedly compared hotel rates and flight ticket rates for about 4 hours yesterday in the effort to find a hotel that my family could afford and was decent at the same time. I made phone calls to the USA, to 1800 numbers (somehow) and exhausted my phone balance. But yeah...I'm so damn tired. 

Illegal or Wrong

To dream that you are doing something illegal or wrong represents your non-conformist attitude. You like to go against what everybody else says or does.

Enough said.


Bubble 

To see bubbles in your dreams, represent merriment, fun, and childhood joys. It may also symbolize wishes or unrealistic expectations. In deciphering this dream symbol, consider also the phrase of having your bubble burst and the resulting disappointment. 

I guess I miss the fun I used to have just about a month ago. And I do have unrealistic expectations from my relationship...which leads to quite a lot of bubble bursts.
