obviously a sign for to register for the kilimanjaro adventure challenge!

hoooo i had an wicked dream last night that first involved me intiially being a detective following a serial killer that left clues at each of the crime scene which ended up forming the shape of the butterfly. we tracked him down to a hospital where his next victim was and end up chasing him through the corridors. however when we caught up with him, instead of arresting him, he ends up converting some of my fellow detectives over his side! at this point my subconsious decides to hightail it out of this situation and it switches to me getting at a meeting checkpoint for a safari tour. we were given an option of taking a train to the next point or hike there. naturally i opt for the hike and so we set off on our little expedition armed with nothing more than a map and a compass. since we were allowed to walk, i figured this hike should be relatively safe, it so wasnt! first we had to maneouver ourselves around a few unfriendly rhinos then came across a pack of lions. unfortunately i didnt escape this encounter unscathed with some very deep claw marks across my chest and back =\

That's not a dream, that's one of your sick fantasies!

Way too many B-Grade movie marathons

Get ready for a long read!

so my dream started out with my workmate and i walking under what looks like the harbour bridge, and he's giving me a lecture about the history of the struts and beams used in its construction. we keep heading down the bridge where we reach an old railway station where he leads me through a secret entrance to a massive underground city. it was here we were greeted by a bunch of mutants and homeless people and it turns out my workmates been coming down here to offer them medical treatment (this probably comes from the fact he's got a doctorate at uni). so im watching him work his way around the place until he meets this giant deformed cyclops with a bloated right arm. turns out he's got a massive tumour and im helping my workmate apply pressure to it whilst he puts a few holes through ti so the puss could come out. while we're doing this the cyclops is screaming in agony and out of nowhere flashbangs and smoke grenades start going off all over the place. next thing i know theres a whole squad of riot police beating and rounding everyone up! i make like the wind and run away through a tunnel.

the dream then shifts to me, robyn, nghi, thi and my mom watching a horror movie where next thing you know we get teleported right into it! we end up in an abandoned warehouse where we're running away from the devil whilst he's taunting us to sacrifice someone to him. so we're running all over the place evading ghosts and ghouls until we finally reach a barricaded safehouse. thinking we're safe in here, next thing you know the safehouse turns into a void and we fall through it and probably all die in the process. now the dream kinda repeats itself where we find ourselves right back at the beginning of the warehouse where im thinking the devil must be playing a sadistic joke on us and forcing us to do the whole thing again. so we end up doing the dance all over again except this time we encounter a few other people who tells us theyve been forced to do teh same thing too. so we team up and run to the safehouse again only this time not all of us make it in there and a few are trapped outside. then one of the survivors who did make it starts to laugh out hysterically and proclaim this is the most fun he's had in ages! she then morphs into the devil and walks through the wall to the peeps who were still outside, looks back at us and says till next time... i asked him if our initial run was real  and we all died or was it just a figment of my imagination! he answers yes and that it happened in a parrallel universe! so not only do i get to die multiple times in my dreams, i also travel into different dimensiosn and universes!

now we then get magically teleported us back to an empty warehouse and robyn nonchalantly says she's hungry and lets go grab some dinner. everyone agrees and act like nothing happened! im thinking either they're suffering from psd or their memories were wiped clean so i didnt force the issue and went with the flow. as we're walking up the stairs, robyn takes out a kayak out of nowhere and says she's ready to go!

the dream shifts to us walking in a yard where i see my nephew wandering alone looking for a medal. i help him look for it and end up in my workplaces control room where thi and nghi proceed to shave my head! once they're done my mom comes in and says she doesnt like it so i magically grow a full set of hair in a second and my mom starts to cut it to her liking.

so i'll let you guys try to decipher that dream!

Oh lawdz iz dat chicken soup!?

oh yea i didnt have a left 4 dead dream yesterday! instead we were heading up to my house on our bikes to go bike riding then it switched to us at a massive music festival where we were all sitting on an oval. i was busting to pee so i went around to houses looking for a toilet. i had my kitchen sink bag on and saw another chic with the same back so i started to use lame pick up lines on her. the house didnt have a vacant toilet so i decided to just frack it and go pee out on the porch. just when i was about to, it started to rain really heavy then hale'd and im thinking ya'll were suckers for still standing out there. afterwards we ran around looking for a chicken shop

Evo V driving down a cliffside to bust up a spy torture dungeon!

<dee-work> so paul

<dee-work> my dream involved us two driving along a windy road along a cliff with no rails

<dee-work> think we were heading to a beach or something

<dee-work> so the roads really narrow and the car's been blowing around by the wind gusts

<dee-work> a few times u veer'd close to the edge

<dee-work> till u get to this really sharp right turn and a massive gust hits us

<dee-work> and pushes the car right off the edge of the cliff

<dee-work> so we're sliding down this huge cliff which sort of looks like the one along wollongong bridge

<dee-work> and im surprising calm falling down to my death

<dee-work> when the car starts to grab some traction and we're driving down the cliff now

<dee-work> and we end up on rail tracks at the bottom

<dee-work> seeing no way to get off we just sped off on the rail tracks over some bridges

<dee-work> when we see a train coming straight at us

<dee-work> at the last moment possible you veer right and all i see is a flash of bright light

<dee-work> somehow miraculously we ended up avoiding the train and a pillar to our right

<dee-work> and you only have some bumper damage on the car

<dee-work> we get off at a train station where some of the train guys saw us and took us into a supermarket to get some food and drinks

<dee-work> the dream then shifts to a house with a dungeon where some guys are getting tortured

<dee-work> because they were spies

<dee-work> and there was a black ops team waiting outside to storm it

<dee-work> and it turns out one of the guys getting tortured was a double agent and he coerced the other one to call them for help

<dee-work> and right into an ambush

<dee-work> some more happens but i forgot it

Left 4 Dead

hooo i had a few multiple dreams within a dreams yesterday and they were all left 4 dead related!

the first one had me as one of the survivors having to climb up kiosks and rooftops to retrieve what i assume to be oil cubes like the ones on the transformers show! I had to dodge zombies and there were these powerups that slowed down time.

The next dream was i was controlling one of the survivors and we had to get into a safe room, in this one we were in a high rise building still under construction and you could to do the flying fox on large tension cables to get to the safe room. in the dream everyone died except for me of course due to my awesome skills but when i arrived in the safe room, i was greeted with a whole array of hunters, witches, spitters and some new weird ones including a little girl. I couldnt take care of them all so i died.

Here teh dream shifted to david driving me to work through the backstreets where im telling him all about this new stage and the safe room then i woke up within the dream to be sitting at my computer chatting to you guys about this. Then i woke up =\

left 4 dead is taking over me consciously and sub consciously!!

Do or do not, there is no try! (Thien)

hooo i had a crazy dream yesterday that spanned what felt like an eternity. it was like watching and experiencing three arcs rolled into one dream so its a long one and its gonna be a huge wall of text.

The dream started off with an african expedition into the heart of seth afrika consisting a bunch of white seth afrikans and tourists. Along the way whilst observing some crocodiles they're attacked by some nigerian pirates and after a short skirmish it ended in a stalemate whereby both our modes of transportation were totalled during the battle. So now we're stuck together surrounded by crocodiles in the middle of nowhere so it was decided that we will have to work together in order to survive. it was at this point the tourists offered an female alligator they had with them to the chief crocodile in a marriage proposal so they wont eat us which the chief crocodile happily accepts. Shortly thereafter the female alligator walks away from the chief crocodile in disgust; probably because the chief had a small wang, which the chief promptly follows after. It was getting dark so we decide to set up camp and sleep there for the night. Waking up in the following day, I find that the nigerian pirates have backstabbed us and killed off the tourists and seth afrikans, probably to use them as a food source, though two other tourists and myself are still alive (naturally since they aint got sh*t on a real man like me).

So the dream fast tracks through a montage where i go all rambo and take them out one by one where by the end of it the two tourists and myself are the last ones left. Hopelessly stranded in the middle of nowhere we decide to trek up north in hopes of finding civilisation. after walking for what felt like months and with no food left we end up by a river thats filled with crocodiles. Feeling we're at the end of the road we all say f*ck it and try to swim our way down the river, either ending up victorious or dying in a blaze of glory was left to destiny. So we're swimming in the river, driven by a strong current, we see a few of the crocodiles have given chase. After some maneuvering we manage to evade them for a while, however the crocs still managed to pick my two buddies off eventually. Of course they couldnt get me since i was in torpedo mode so i reach the end of the river and end up on a worn out sandy road. Figuring someone would eventually drive down the road i set up camp by the side and wait for someone to come. Living off grass and whatever rodents and insects that are near me I sat there patiently for what felt like 30 years. Eventually a young teenage couple scoots down the road and i wave them down and ask them for a lift. They then proceed to tell me no ones been down the road due to rommel's advances into africa. Its at this point i realize i have been living through world war 2. So they say they'll get some help and they drive off into the sunset. im thinking why couldnt they jsut fit me in their car with them?! So i head back onto the side of the road where once again i await their return. The couple never come back and im left there sitting alone and fading to black.

That concludes the first arc of the dream. The second arc was essentially the first arc set in modern times and on fast forward whereby everything in the first arc was repeated except for the ending. In the second replay, rather than sitting back down and waiting for help I start running after them. Im thinking this must be the reincarnated version of my previous self except i have remembered and learnt from my past life mistakes and i have successfully broken the cycle boo yea! in this alternate timeline, after running for a mile or two i run into a whole bunch of people quadbiking up and down some sand dunes. Its at this point im kicking my previous carnation for being such a timid idiot.
The third and final arc isnt as crazy and radical as the first two. The dream shifts to some time in the future where im aboard a spaceship thats heading to far off planet to colonise it for human use (idea probably from the tv series defying gravity and avatar). Here im just floating around checking out the sights and generally annoying the few people that were with me on the trip. Along the way I stumble into a room with a rotating table like the ones u find in those sushi bars. Fascinated i stand there watching it for a while until the guy who was sitting right next to me who i was oblivious of all this time, asks me to leave since im in his way. It is then the rotating table morphs into scaled architectural model. I ask him what he's doing and he says he's designing the building we were going to build but he's still undecided on the final design. He says that the building looks and feels too sterile, i'm thinking this may be related to the comment made yesterday in the car about singapore and its relative cleanliness. Anyways i start to think how are we gonna build this the majority of the crew being research scientists and all and i go for a space walk. And thats how my journey in the dream ended. So i gather the moral of the dream is life's too short so you just have to take a leap of faith and go for it otherwise you'll be left behind. like a wise man once said do or do not, there is no try! or patience is a virtue and you'll end up screwing urself up in the long run, TPG internet damn you!

Oh lawdz, KFC and Giant Lab Experiments Gone Wrong! (Thien)

Hooo, time for a dreamcatcher update. Haven't had one of these in a while.

Anyways my dream this time was about a couple of scientists and myself finding a way to genetically grow animals into giants (this was most probably influenced by the awesome movie komodo vs cobra where it happens on an island).

Our lab looked like it was next to Bonnyrigg high school where the KFC is. Anyways they get this great idea that the first thing they should experiment is a leech like the one that was on my leg that bike trip where they grow it to something like to 15m long with a 3m wide diameter.

This leech then starts going crazy where it burrows underground and next thing you know theres like 10 of them all over the place.

I try to stop this by activating some kill switch but my attempts were thwarted by a cockatoo thats resting on my head. Everytime I to move the damn thing would peck and claw at me.

It then ends with me walking to the shops.

Monster Echo Track (Thien)

speaking of rides i had a dream last night.

David was driving on the freeway in a black toyota echo and the freeway led into a construction zone where it turns into a massive bmx track, think monster x multiplied a hundred times.

so we're there and we figure we might as well do the track in the echo. so the echo's skidding and sliding over the place where we go for this massive jump where we jump it and land onto a suspended platform. the platform turns out to be like 50 metres in the air and we're there with a couple of other bikers doing the course.

because there were a few platforms beneath us we get this genius idea of using this elastic rope that magically appears out of nowhere.

we use it to tie the echo onto the struts linking the platforms and then driving the car off the platform so it swings downwards where the guys would catch it.

we do this a few times till the last platform where we're still about 30m in the air. it was at this point we said screw it and vvti'd off the platform.

next thing u know we're on the ground and theres car parts all over the place and then my alarm went off.

Mayan Pyramids, Vine Chick, and Tn as a female

TN's dream:

My dream was pretty convoluted. it started off in mexico in some ancient mayan pyramid where me and this chick and dude were being held hostage by a sentient being in a shape of vines. it turns out the pyramid and is connected to another one via an underground passageway and it needed a host to get to the other where another being was waiting for it. so it then took the chick as a host and from what i can tell one of us guys would be the next host for the what lies ahead and the other would probably be the dinner for two =\. it then proceeds to drag us along the passageway via a suspended bridge. as we're walking along i noticed that she could only sense us as long while we're in motion so i test out my theory and bobs ur uncle she starts to move around frantically looking for me. i try to signal the other guy to stay still as well but i guess her behaviour spooks him so he just pissbolts as far and fast as he can. it was then that vines started to sprawl out from her and swiftly catches him in no time. after a while it looks like as if she has given up i see her start to loosen the bridge with her gazillion vines.
i then transform into solid snake and start to stealthly sneak up behind her where i then push her over the ledge! unfortunately for me she did her scorpion 'get over here1' move on me and drags us both down to our doom. as i lay there on the concrete floor i see a shadowy figure moving towards me, thinkin it might be the manifestation fo the other thing waiting for us i try to get away but my body just wouldnt move. as it came closer, the figure became clearer to the point i can see it was a man in a labcoat as i start to fade to black. i then wake up to find myself in some lab reminiscent of alice in re. i start to stagger around trying to get my bearings right where i see my own reflection on the wall and i was shocked to see the an image of the chick staring right back at me! as i looked around i see my own lifeless body laying there on an operation table right next to me. as i stared at my body i hear a voice inside my head calling out to me. it took a while before i recognised the voice was that of the hybrid vine chick. i come to the realization that we have somehow switched bodies where at that moment the labcoat dude comes waltzing in and greets me. he tells me that he had successfully transferred my conciousness into her body as it was the only way to save my life and that he was unable to awaken my other self. it seems like my body is a coma though i have somehow developed a telepathic link to her where we can communicate in our minds. i ask him whether he can swap our bodies around again but he says he cant as the technology wasnt there to perform such a task. im like wtf how'd u do it in the first place and he just says it was luck and compatability. so i ask him what about transferring me into another human body preferably male and he replies in that the body has to be at most an hour dead and even then the probability it works was close to nil. it then switches to where im witnessing an abduction of some dude that looked like a mix of ben affleck and matt damonnnn. the doctor then performs the operations and i fall asleep only to wake up again and find the operation was unsuccessful and i could hear the vine chick laughing at me and saying what i think was aww snap! after this i walk home and contemplate my life as a girl where i start get the weird stares from everyone. also im thinkin i'll be stuck with scissoring action for the rest of my life seeing as how im not gay! but then i realise i have these vines and maybe i can use them as tntacles! the dream experiences a series of timeskips into the future where i see myself working in the lab. the timeskip stops some 400 years into the future where i still look the same so maybe i've become immortal or something and i see my body has been kept in a cryogenic state. i guess this meant that the technology has finally caught up to the point where i can finally get my own body back and as i open up the pod she responds telepathically by saying finally then i wake up =\.
i dont get to find out whether we do switch back or what happens afterwards but it seems the dream was a mixture of stuff i've watched recently in the form of feast, the ruins, mnemosyne and a couple of other things

TN gets the chicks

TN's dream:

haha my dream started off with me attending some huge uni party or graduation or something at usyd where im driving there in the pulsar looking and getting lost in the 2837129 carparks the place has so i parked in one of the random spots. it shifts to me walking to it where i meet some blonde chick and we hit it off with the hi asl's and it works booyea! she says she's craving for some v energy drink with lime, im thinkin wtf but hey whatever floats her boat so i offer to get it. but it turns out the drinks are at the other end of the campus so i spend what seemed like an eternity walking to it!

on the way i meet up with another chick who's also getting a drink so we chat on the way there and by the time we get there, we hear the sirens go off and saying that the party's ending and we have an hourto get out before the gates closes so everyones running frantically to the carpark. but i forgot where i parked so i spend the rest of the day looking for it and only manage to find it when it was like the only car in the lot. unfortunately by then it was too late so the security guards offer me an alternative mode of transportation to get home... a MONSTER TRUCK! naturally i accept and im heading out of the carpark onto a strip of road that really resembles st johns road. as i weaved through the small streets this stupid lady runs the stop signs and t bones me. of course the monster truck was aok so i step outside to check the damage on her car. as i step out she shouts the trucks rolling since i forgot to pull up the handbrake and im running after it and once i got in navigated my way around the cars in the vicinity. just as i pull up the handbrake i ram into the back of a parked ute and proceeded to get the fuck out there asap!

the dream then shifts to me at my old raftree house where the interior has been renovated with new tiles and a sauna! only problem now is that on each of the levels of the houses is haunted by a ghost =\. i proceed to confront each of these ghosts and they all turn out to be some pretty cool ghost chicks so i hang with them and thats where the dream ends.

twas a pretty hectic dream

african willy

TN's dream:

oh yea in my dream yesterday, willy was telling me paul and steve he had an 18 year old african girlfriend haha

prison break, insect fuckers and gator wrestling

TN's dream:

hooo i had a really crazy dream yesterday

i dreamt that i was in prison and there was a riot where me and these 2 other guys managed to break into the armoury and get a couple of mp5s and riot gear with the armour and everything. a cop came in and we had to kill him. and in the armoury there were also a whole bunch of puma clydes and 917s!

while i was checking them and fitting them on, the police managed to take control of the prison and there were only 3 of us left unaccounted for. luckily for us there just happened to be an open window in the armoury and we escaped. however it turns out that the police were actually mercanaries as well and a huge gunfight went on while we were being pursued.

we later ended up in a warehouse that turned out to be their main base of operations. so we go in guns blazing jumping over box cradles and shit where i kept crouching and taking single shots but those f**kers wouldnt die everytime i hit them!

so i changed tactics and ran at all of them slitting their throats with a invisible knife or something. turns out that i didnt kill them but merely knocked them unconcious.

the dream then changed to me in a car on a highway where a gazillion of these little insect monsters were killing and eating everyone in sight. I then ran to a nearby lake where this chick was getting attacked by one and there was an alligator right next to her. so while she's fighting this monster off she smacks the alligator and jumps into the lake where the alligator soon follows.

after a while i see the chick is on top of the alligator somehow and then outta nowhere the monster bursts out of alligators body though she manages to escape and we run off.

the dream then moves to us going into some circus with all the oddities and freaks. i go to the canteen to get some food then head to one of their museums where surprise surprise i see one of those insect f**kers standing there.

naturally i got the f*ck out of there and looked for the chick. when i found her, hordes of those f**kers started to descend upon us and everybody started running everywhere. we end up at a beach where he start swimming out into the sea. this goes on for like an hour and we see those things didnt come after us so we treadwater for a while.

the scenery then changes to me being in 25m lap pool in my house which was kinda weird and thats where the dream ends.
there were a couple more arcs in the dream but i cant remember them =\

arcade games and tornados

TN's dream

i had another random dream yesterday, it start off that we were in a gaming arcade and i was playing the game where u hit the litted areas up with rubber mallets with nina where i totally kicked her ass in.

it then switched to a weird daytona machine where it only had one car racing seat and the other was a streetfighter styled joystick setup. me and paul were versing in it where i was using auto on the joystick and we raced where i couldve won it but instead i tried to ram him off instead =\.

the dream then switched to us being on top of the buildings where we were hopping from one to the next. in the horizon there were like 12 tornadoes where 8 of them joined together and formed a super tornado that was heading our way. we ended up hiding under the stairs on the roof when the tornado struck us. twig then ran out to the side of the roof with one leg over the rails where the tornado came and picked him right up and out. of course we just sat there and laughed and then my alarm clock rang =\

i should start up the dreamcatcher blog
