1. What was the last dream that you had about?
The last one I remember was a few nights ago (I know I've had others that I don't remember). It was another teaching dream, and I think had one of my 3rd graders from my second to last year. Someone had hit him, not like punched in the face but hard enough to leave a mark on his arm or something. I was left to try and have him tell his parents the situation wasn't that bad, instead of being able to punish the other kid. In my mind I was angry and knew it was wrong that the victim had to basically take it, but I couldn't do anything else. Some of the details are hazy. It's the second such dream I've had lately, which bothers me.
2. Does it hold any significant meaning to you?
Meaning, no, but I'm irked because not only do I still have teaching dreams, but now they involve violence where the perpetrator cannot be punished and I have to convince the victim and/or the parents it's not a big deal.
3. Do you dream in color or black and white?
color
4. What is the most frightening dream you ever had?
I want to say it was in high school. I had 3 dreams probably within a few months where I was killed, at least 2 were by vampires. I don't think they bit my neck, but I can't remember. I know one I was shot with a rifle. I remember laying on the ground after I'd been killed, maybe still dying, maybe a ghost, but trying to not draw the killer's attention to myself. Those dreams made me shudder for a long time.
5. Is there one dream that stays clear in your mind despite the fact it was more than a few years ago? The above dreams have faded, but I still remember them. I have good dreams that I remember parts of as well.
