I arrive at school, and Ben and I are in the cafeteria and are upgrading school computers to this BRAND SPANKING NEW DOS 6.0(!!!!!) We are so excited about this, now our school has great technological capabilities. I remember though, when I rebooted the computer, everything looked like KDE and GIMP opened up. And in GIMP, there was a large graphic of Steve Case and Dem Bones shaking hands. They were signing a contract to merge E2 with AOL. I screamed, and Ben, who was now on the other side of the cafeteria chatting with one of the lunch ladies, ran over and asked what was going on. I showed him the graphic, and he was so startled by this that his hair stood at end with this huge expression of shock on his face and all his hair fell out. Dem Bones had this new webpage at some place like www.aolsuperimposementsex.com. On the page, there was pictures from an E2/AOL corporate orgy that had taken place when everyone was in Redmond. Psuedo_Intellectual, Nate, Icicle, and some user I have never heard of named Ukatan_For_Babies were wearing Kaiser helmets and tying down Mojoe to this ironing board.
I turned off the computer, and Ben and I went to this new theology class our school had. After class, Ben looked at me and said, "If it weren't for Scientology, I would have no respect for Everquest." We went to the computer lab where we played Everquest until this alarm went off and I woke up.
It was her again. She's in my dreams now, how fucking lame. Anyways, this one was a weird one. It definitely has something to do with my preference of white girls over Asian chicks. I don't remember everything in the dream, but there was one scene that was really scary and destroyed my love for everything.
I was in the bus going somewhere, maybe nowhere. The bus had stopped at the Boston Pizza stop in the afternoon. Somebody was cackling from the back of the bus. I turned around to see this Girl. She was white and I had never seen her before, but she seemed familiar. She looked at me, peered into my secrets, pierced my soul. It felt so intrusive. And she continued to laugh like one of those Evil Anime Women...like Ryouko in Tenchi. Then there was this flashback picture cycling through my mind. She was the Goth Girl, but she was White for some reason.
Nothing makes sense...
As far as I know, I'm awake now.
I don't quite recall any of the dreams themselves, only the general form. I found myself feeling paralyzed -- I would feel myself moving, but my body wouldn't obey. Hyponogogic trance paralysis.
I actually woke around 7 -- or, rather, was woken, by a cheery kanon42 who couldn't sleep and didn't see any reason why I should. After some convincing, though, I managed to get her to turn off the light again, and we slept peacefully until 2.
I have parked the car at the base (or at least at the highest drivable point) of the mountain. We are about half an hour's drive north of Cape Town. It will be a long days walk to the top and back, but it is worth it, for reasons that are strongly felt but not explainable. from the top we will have a panoramic view over the whole of the Cape Peninsula.
I wake up, and I realise that there is no such mountain. I weep when I write this.
Two possible reasons for this dream.
My activites last night, the reasons why I was sleeping on Sunday afternoon: The Alien Safari party (ie trance rave) on Silverstroom strand. North of Cape Town, but at sea level. My chosen recreation, as opposed to my parents's hiking and mountaineering. did reach chemical heights that night, not that it was real.
My recuring desire and knowledge that for my own good, is should fly north and leave this place behind me. I rememer walking to the top of Crough Patrick, a large hill or small mountain in Ireland, and the wonderfull view from the top. I could leave Africa (or at least I tell myself that I can), but try as I might, it will never leave me.
Over and over it would rain so that we could not dig the body up.
Nothing happened, but it was very relaxing. Mind you, it worried me about my (I though inexistent) political tendencies.
1:00 AM
We were cleaning my room, getting it prepared for when I would leave. Mom and Sharon were so sweet. Mom wrote several thank-you notes for me, and they were very well-written. When I got here, there was some controversy about the cathedral of learning versus CMU's comparable structure, which was taller, rotated, and had extremely more desirable lighting. I mentioned that we were rotating faster, but since we were near the top floor, perhaps our rotation was less due to the movement of the Earth. (I was wrong.) There was a gathering downstairs, where I met Frau Young (who did not seem at all surprised to see me) and my Grandma. Grandma gave me a box of ice cream to share with my roommate. She was talking about something like wine tasting tomorrow. I put the box of ice cream in the freezer, and played around with the ice-box structure inside. The door to the structure had the same texture as the ice that would build up inside the freezer, so it was almost undetectable. I then spent much time trying to read something on the box of ice cream, which action brought me to eventually wake up.
