Has anyone ever had extremely weird yet awesome dreams. I have a serious problem remembering dreams yet I've been having a lot a weird ones that I remember almost vividly.

Last Night

Dreamed that I was in the Bahamas with a group of people, two girls and a guy as well as a parent of one of the girls. Don't know why but two more girls that were good friends with the other two were in a parade on a float singing. The parade ended and we all got together and started talking about why we were there. The other two were on a tour of the Bahamas, and we(the initial group) were on vacation. We were taking a vacation that went from the southeast of the US to the Caribbeans and ended in Hungary. Two of the girls(one from the initial group and another from the parade), the parent, the other guy and I went into what looked like a shop. Inside looked like a carnival booth where you win stuffed animals. Other guys were in there. I don't know how but the two girls disappeared and there was one girl, blond and very pretty, early twenties or late teens. Anyway, the guys in the "shop" were all winning stuff for her and hitting on her. The guy we were with was the girls boyfriend and the parent was her mom. The guy(medium/long dirty blond hair. kinda punkish) was jealous that the other guys were hitting on his girlfriend. Then, the other guys in the shop disappeared and he won a stuffed bear for the girl. Then the girl and parent went outside and I looked around. There was what looked like a electronic poker machine on the counter of the shop. I asked what it was and the guy said it was a map...? Anyway he put a small silver coin, like a dime but not really. He pressed a number(5) on the black rectangular screen(numbers were lit up white) then another number...nothing happened. He said he lost. He got some more coins and I started playing then the mom came in and said we had to go. The guy seemed mad and it turned out that I had lost him 50 bucks. I said I thought the coins were dimes. Then, just me, was at some kind of area(dark) with wood crates and there was this girl, just a bit shorter than me.

This is the weird part because even now my gut tells me I have seen her before in other dreams.

She had strait blond hair, really blond, and a clear complection. I started to walk toward her, mesmerized. Her eyes had no pupils, no bloodshots...they were...perfect. I can still see them. They were light blue and seemed to light up the space around her and even her face. The blue was like carribian waters yet no greenish tint. Clear, deeper on the outside and gradualy got lighter as they meshed in over where the pupils should have been. I leaned in close to her face and then the dream shot off to a different location.

I know...anticlimactic. I'll get back to her later.

Then, I wasn't in the dream anymore. It was an omniscient view of the four girls (2 from initial and 2 from parade) they were on top of  elephants, not huge but still big. The elephants were gray and really clean. They were at a hill looking down at a dock, and a small, not very luxurious cruise ship was at the dock. This is odd because the girls are very high strung. They were asking whether or not the boat was safe for elephants and the thought that they might be at the wrong boat never crossed there minds. They started to walk down to the dock and then my vision turned to the left to another dock with a large, elaborate carnival cruise ship. It didn't zoom in but I could tell that the guy and the parent and the fifth girl(from the shop) were getting onto that cruise ship.

The view switched back to the four girls only now they WERE the elephants and they were almost to the boat. I was on the boat and suddenly I found myself in a large room with wood floors and walls and a wood stage on one end. There were tables and a bunch of lower middle class people were sitting at the table(it's odd that I can make these observations without anything in the dream telling me this) I(just me no elephants) entered the room and looked around. The captain(scruffy guy in his thirties or fourties) was there and talking to the people...the rest isn't important as I can't remember it.

Next thing I know I leave that room and I seem to be on a train in a boxcar adjacent to another one...how they got two boxcars to run side by side I don't know. The room was filled with old pictures of historic figures. One poster caught my eye. It was a poster of Hitler...in black and white, old. Probably from the fourties. I quickly walked into the adjacent boxcar witch looked a lot like my dining room when I was younger only smaller. The captian's family was sitting there eating. I singled out the captains son, young maybe eight or nine. I knew that it was his poster. We got in an arguement that suddenly turned into a heated arguement over whether or not the holocaust happened. Then I found that I was arguing with my mom. She brought up something about there being an island with shoes and stuff buried...Somewhere in the course of the dream I found myself on the island in a three to four foot deep excavation hole. I wiped away some sand/dust below me and found shoes...tons and tons of shoes. Like I said, I don't remember exactly when in the dream this happened. After the arguement I went back out the dining boxcar and into the room with the pictures. I exited a door opposite from where I entered and jumped off the train and into my street where I live.

I found myself hating my parents because they were nazis and ran out of my house(?how I got in my house I don't know?) They werent in the house but I wanted to get away. I knew I had stuff of my dad's(deceased) in the house that I wanted to take with me but instead just ran. I past up one of the neighbors I knew but didn't even think to ask for help because I didn't trust him. I ran to the end of my street and then a girl from my school pulled up on a dirt bike and tried to talk to me. I walked away and took a right onto another street. Four kids in what looked like a large gokart with an oddly shaped roll cage pulled up and sped past me, grabbing me and pulling me into the vehicle. We were being chased but I don't know by whom. Probably the cops.

Then I found myself back in third grade, even at the age i was at in third grade. A teacher brought me down my old third grade hall to my old third grade class but inside was kids from my highschool and my seventh and eight grade english teacher. It was a class for gifted kids. The teacher that brought me to the class told the teacher in the class that she had another "one" that looked like a junior(as in 11th grade) I went into the class and played with some of the educational toys...yes it sounds childish. Then we got in a circle with a tin can(like the large ones popcorn comes in) it was filled with marbles of different colors. Mostly white. Everyone grabbed as much as they could in one turn and piled them on the floor in front of us. The teacher then said to draw again but we could only keep marbles from the second pick if they were the same color as the marbles from the first pick and that she would record the number of marbles everyone ended up with...We did this twice. Then the dream ended because I was half awake and the dream became lucid. The lucid part was just me trying to remember the blue eyed girl's face...

A few months ago I had another dream like this. It is a bit shorter but I'll still cut it down. This one gets even weirder than the other one.

Basically I found myself in New York, on the front steps of a building with a bunch of flags and three large fountains in front of it. The ground, I think, had a map engraved in it. I was with a girl(fairly sure it's the same blue eyed girl from last night's dream) and we were talking about where we were going to go...She pointed to the map we were standing on, my gut instinct told me Thailand...well get back to that later. I was going somewhere completly different. Next I find myself on a boat getting off at a dock in where else...but Thailand. I was walking with a group on a wood walkway that floated atop a swamp...everything that follows this tells me I'm in Vietnam though...like it makes a difference...only one country separates the two. Anyway we(The group from the boat, my two cousins which I can't stand, and I) go strait for a while until we hit a large, square platform level with the walkway. Everyone is kind of rushing...we are supposidly going to a disneyland park...yeah I know. In the back corner is the girl from New York. We start talking and eventually decide to stick together. There are armed guards hurrying people onto a wood raft with a canopy that is hooked up to a rope going across the swamp. We get on and then the scene switches to nighttime in a outside food court type thing...more modern than what would be expected. I am with my ROTC wing but not paying any attention to them. I am looking for ol` blue-eyes. They make fun of me which gets me pissed. Suddenly I get the mindset that my ROTC wing is going to keep me from being with blue eyes. I am suddenly holding a stormtrooper two carbine and sneaking around outside the hilton we are staying at....heh...hanoi hilton only it's actually a hotel. Long story short I kill my entire AFJROTC Wing...roughly about 100 people. Its now morning and I leave the hilton to find blue eyes. When I find her we decide to stay together forever but then she runs off to some big buff guy who is supposidly a star athelete. Im mad at this point and will do anything to get blue eyes back and so I challenge the guy to a triathalon(like in the olympics) everyone laughs but I still do it and end up winning...she still stays with the athelete and then I wake up......

Yea... I'm pretty sure everyone has those.  At least I know I do a lot.  Like I have a recurring dream that comes back for a night or two every month or so.  But generally, every other night I have those vivid wierd dreams.  Course, theyre packed with personal details so I don't want to disclose them.

I glanced through a book on sleep so I would have something intelligent to add in a conversation like this, lol:

People usually go through about four or five cycles, at least, of an introduction to REM, REM and finally the release of REM. REM (Rapid Eye Movement) is the time at which your body is most active, hormones and other important metabolic processes go to work to ensure your sanity upon waking.  REM is also the time at which your mind creates, catalogues, reorganizes, and entertains the body with mental stimuli, further enhancing the rebuilding process and, if I must say so myself, making for some decent story telling. The mixed scientific/thought oriented approach to dreams is that your mind reprises past events that are especially interesting, or at least to you- something in them pertains to another thought process that has been on your mind for a while- perhaps its the fear of a mid-term that bugs you. If this is the case, perhaps your mind will connect it with another intriguing facet, like a fear of being seen naked in public- thus the popular dream of waking up naked in your classroom on mid-term day Back to the scientific side- you need to think about the dream that just occurred immediately upon waking up- 90% will disappear after about five seconds because you've detached yourself so greatly from that REM stage of sleep- and!  Since you're only using 'working memory' (short-term) during dreaming, its especially difficult to remember; something has to occur numerous times or be especially interesting in order to remain attached. Also, you'll note that if you're awaken suddenly during the night rather than given that time to recover from REM, you'll remember much clearer. Why? You're still in REM when awaken or much closer to it.

Thought I'd add my own dream to this discussion since I inserted so much meaningless, scientific speak. Mine usually have a story behind it, something I've been interested in finding out about. One that I remember vividly from back around third or fourth grade: I was really into the Titantic.  Everything around it interested me, but I was and still am afraid of the ocean- what lurks beneath and what not.  One night I dreamt about sitting around a massive pool, might legs kicking in the water like everyone does while the life-guard explains the rules, and my Dad doing something similar next to me. Evenly spaced in the pool are four orange floaters like you see at lakes, letting you know where deep ends are. I ask my Dad where we are and what it's all about: apparently we are in a pool over the Titantic- each floater indicating where the smoke stacks had once been.  Below us are the actual remains of the Titantic- I can't see them though: why?  The depth of this pool is the actual depth of the ocean where the Titanic currently lies. To tie this back with the information I gave you originally- I hated pools, thus was apprehensive about being there and wearing floaters of my own, interested in the Titanic (thus the ship and location), and finally I'd seen an old sunken river boat at a museum where they'd set up floaters. That's my ramble for the day

Heh, I've had dreams similar but I'll tell you one that made me go nuts. I'm gonna just tell you the part I remember.

I was dreaming about being in a hotel with my mom and family and we were running from who knows what. We were finally in a safe place and my step dad gives me a box. He tells me its a gift and I open it up. Its a silver gun, kinda like a revolver except the cap gun kind. And it is real. I get all excited because he tells me I'm going to be some kind of hero by killing these things. And then something happens, I forgot what and I'm all pist and crap. I wake up to find tears streaming down my face and I scream "WHERES MY GUN!" and then I fall back asleep.

Lol weird dream I know, and I'm not even big on guns. There was also this other one I had where I was in the Everglades, which is a swamp in florida. And I had just went the day before. I was staring at some alligator that I had also stared at in real life. It was just looking up at me and my head was sticking out of the boat. It then hopped out of the water, and I'm guessing it killed me cus I woke up and practically fell off my bed. It had me shaking for quite a bit XD
