Dough, School and Home

I woke up 3 times in the middle of the night just to write down my dreams - snarling because I was so sleepy but at the same time knew that if I didn't write these down, I wouldn't totally remember them.

I jotted down "UPS/Water Bottle" - Honestly I don't remember anything about a dream about UPS or water bottles.

First dream I remembered - My mom had some orange dough she was playing with. Kind of formed it into a cup or a bowl. She blew hard into it and it blew up like a balloon and then she closed the open end - and it ended up looking like a long pumpkin, even had lines/creases.

Next dream, I was in some classroom and the editor of the Milpitas Newspaper was the teacher. He was going over some worksheet and writing stuff on the whiteboard. I was doing a pretty good job paying attention, but when he called on me to read something on the worksheet - I was completely lost. So I started reading a line, and everyone in the class starts laughing. So - I apologized and started reading another line and they laughed even harder. I was upset, and I remember staring at a plate of chicken katsu. All of a sudden my seating was changed. Our desks were pushed together (like how in elementary school kids sit in groups with desks facing each other). There were 3 guys in my group, and I was sitting on the very end. I look at my desk and all of a sudden there's tons of papercups, at least 20 sitting on my desk all partially filled with water. I wanted to dump them, so I started pouring some cups into other cups and stacking the empty cups - most of the cups were actually those small papercups with little folds that you see at water dispensers. The cups started overflowing - there was a guy standing there with his books waiting for me to clean up and leave. One of the guys sitting in my group yelled at me, telling me "That's Alex, he's korean. Hurry up and clean up!" Then all of a sudden I was at another desk, rummaging thru the bottom drawer which was black. There were a bunch of colorful cardholders - not sure what I was looking for. (When I woke up from that dream, I was extremely thirsty and finished the water bottle next to my table).

The last dream, I had just come home from a concert or something and was in the kitchen with my brother. I had sweat pants on with boots, sweater, glasses and hair tied up in a messy ponytail. It was 9:19pm and I was worried because my mom wasn't home. (My shih-tzu has epilepsy, and needs her medication twice a day and it's usually at 6am and 6pm). So I was worried and tried calling my mom to see where she was or if she had given our dog her medicine. I looked into the garage and turned on the light - and saw that my mom's minivan was missing but my old white honda accord was sitting in the middle of the garage. I told myself my dad must have taken the minivan to the autoshop. I walked into my moms room which was dark - I turned on the bathroom light and there she was on her bed, sleeping. She told me she fell asleep early around 6pm.

Bottle

To see a bottle in your dream, indicates that you are pushing your feelings back inside, rather than expressing them. The contents of the bottle represent the nature of the emotions.

Dough
To see or work with dough in your dream, signifies potential, possibilities and the ability to create. The dream may also be a metaphor to symbolize money.


Pumpkin

To see a pumpkin in your dream, implies openness and your receptiveness to new ideas and experiences. A pumpkin is also symbolic of the female sexuality. Alternatively, it may relate to the popular fairy tale of Cinderella where a carriage turns back into a pumpkin. In this regard, it may represent some situation in which time is running out.


Water

To see water in your dream, symbolizes your unconscious and your emotional state of mind. Water is the living essence of the psyche and the flow of life energy. It is also symbolic of spirituality, knowledge, healing and refreshment. If the water is calm, clear, then it signifies that you are in tune with your spirituality. It denotes serenity, peace of mind, and rejuvenation.

School
To dream that you are in school, signifies feelings of inadequacy and childhood insecurities that have never been resolved. It may relate to anxieties about performance and abilities. If you are still in school and dream about school, then it will naturally serve as a backdrop to your dream world.
Alternatively, a dream that takes place in school may be a metaphor for the lessons that you are learning from your waking life. You may be going through a "spiritual learning" experience.

Groups
To see a group in your dream, refers to the merging of various aspects of your character and personality.

Cup
To see a cup in your dream, represents love, nurturance and the womb. The cup may also signify healing, rejuvenation, and healing. Alternatively, it indicates a transcendence into a realm of higher consciousness.


Desk

To see or sit at your desk in your dream, suggests that you are evaluating and weighing your problems. It is indicative of self-exploration and discovery. If you are at someone else's desk, then it symbolizes a lack of confidence in your own abilities.
