.Chinese New Years coming (invite friends/family)
.wo yingai bangzhu wo jia, yinwei wo ai wo jia. wo juede ziji jia bi ziji pengyou hen zhongyao
.getting reputation + impressing/making friends with new ppl
. Naruto is kinda like my room mate blake, and I'm more kinda like that saske character from that show.
.M.U.L.E. a good fun economics game, from old school nintendo. (spent too much time playin it last night though, also it's a very good game to play with other people.)
.Had a dream that I was in the Cival War in some Union regiment, where I was a high ranking strategist officer. We were begining to enter a battle with the confederates, and we were overwhelmingly better equiped in numbers and in equipment compared to the enemy thanks to my superior strategy. But when we were begining the battle, the head general was being really overconfident, as well as the rest of the army, even me and the other officers, but especially the head general. I think the other officers and I were complaining because we thought we did not need to participate in the battle because we were going to win so easily anyway, but we were forced to come. Now when the battle started, for some reason the Confederates had a whole bunch of canons which they bombarded our army with, and we started losing really fast, it was kinda scary actually. I ended up kind of constantly backing up while dodging canonballs left and right, and ducking them with them barely missing me. It kind of felt like the way you can dodge paintballs from far away cause they are just barely not fast enough were you can still dodge them at a certain distance if you watch them closely. Anyway me and some girl officer ended up trying to run away from the battle together and retreat, dodging cannon balls all the way, (running backwards) but some Union jackass officers, one time a soldier kept pushing our backs and saying we couldn't run away and all that. At the last part we were running through this tunnel that looked a lot like the union hallway tunnel, even though it was in the middle of a field... but a regualar union soldier grabbed our backs and lectured us harshly on how officers shouldn't abandon their men and forced us by gunpoint to go back.. the girl was crying.. and I was like ...ok he'll be dead pretty soon then we'll run, as we just got out of the tunnel back into the battle, that soldier got shot by an approaching army and we ran back through the tunnel and retreated and got away.
That's about it.. I left out some of the details for privacy's sake, but that was the main idea and plot of the dream. Now some idiots think dreams are just yer thoughts and don't mean anything, but I'm the type that likes to disect dreams and attain the true meaning behind them, even if they are just unconscious thoughts, those thoughts tell something about your true character.
In this particular dream I think my personality + thoughts on various things are reflected in it. Prolly my view about the military, that loyalty and honor in today's battles just aren't worth it like that soldier that died at the end. Prolly the way I play paintball, and fight/play in general with strategy that I think might work, never directly attacking or confronting the enemy always trying to flank or surprise them, and running away from situations I can't beat. Also prolly some sort of knight type methodology I have.., prolly specially when it comes to women. Also some of my characters arrogance and attitude might have represented some warning in the future, showing ability but saying to guard against overconfidence. There's also some occasional feeling I get to have the most power and stuff with the people around me. I have the thought and philosophy of more budhist type, uncomparing persona, but inside occasionally I think I get that imperialist asshole, I want to be better than everyone else and more powerful than them, and enslaving the rest of humanity type of feeling. Anybody else know what I'm talking about?
By the way, if anyone else would like to share a past dream with or without theoretical commentary, please do. Or comment on this one if u'd like. that kind of stuff is fun.
