The Water Castle Part 1

Labels:

Okay, so as I established in my other dream post, I have weird things going on in my head. Last time I gave you three unrelated dreams that all happened on the same night, but this time I’m here to give you part one of two related dreams that happened on different nights. These ones are more of a linear story than the last set, so they’ll probably be far more enjoyable to read.

This first dream happened this past February I think. It was early in the year, I can tell you that for sure. When it started out, I was just kind of exploring my grandma’s house. I have this dream every once in a while, where I’ll just walk around her house and look at things, and then in the back bedroom, there’s always this old bookroom that doesn’t exist in real life. That’s usually the only really off thing about that dream though. This time however, she had another secret room in the back of the closet in her office. There was just another door in the back of the closet, but nothing seemed particularly off about it to my dream self.

When I opened the door, I saw there was a large and open classroom inside. It looked like it was an elementary school classroom because it had a whole back wall full of windows, and below them there were a bunch of cubbies filled with books and school supplies. I walked around the classroom, just picking up things and looking at them, until I noticed a staircase in the corner of the room. This is where the dream started feeling more surreal to me, because my grandma’s house is only one story—there can’t be stairs leading to another level.

There were 3 full cases of stairs that I took up to what was best described as the roof, though it was more like the roof of a tall office building than a house. It was all stone, and the sky felt ominous. It was sunset, but there were dark storm clouds everywhere trying to mask the colors in the sky. I looked around, and saw a walkway leading off the edge of the roof and over to a large stone castle that just happened to be nearby.

I followed the walkway and it came to a fork where I could either go left or right. I went right and followed it to this open area where there was a trapdoor on the ground. I opened it up and inside was like a high school gym, but it was filled with water. I jumped inside, but for some reason the water was breathable and didn’t make my clothes weigh me down. I swam to the bottom, and Cass was there. We talked for a bit, and he said he needed to go to the bathroom, so we swam back up to the trapdoor.

There was a guard up there who said if we were going to go to the bathroom, he would have to handcuff us, and we would need to take off all our jewelry. I found this strange, since I almost never wear jewelry, but I proceeded to take off my rings and a bracelet. Cass took off his too, and the guard made us put them in a soda can while we went. He handcuffed us, we went to the bathroom, then we took our jewelry back, and swam back down into the gym.

End of dream.

Yeah, I know it’s weird and oddly specific…but just wait for part two…

Tips to Make a Paper Longer (using page length requirements)

When you get an essay or writing assignment, there are almost always minimum or maximum requirements, so your teacher can ensure you don’t submit either a sticky note, or a full-length book for your research paper on dragonflies or whatever. When teachers set these requirements, they usually base it on either word count or page count to keep student submissions fairly standard. But let’s be here, we’re not all English majors. Even when you are an English major, you don’t always care about the topic enough to be able to write that full 3-page or 1500 word minimum. That’s where this list comes in handy. Having lived through some of the dullest essays known to man, I have been able to pick up on some handy tricks that might just save you the next time you’re out of things to write. This post will specifically cover how to meet a page limit requirement. If your teacher gave you a word limit minimum, or if they have picked a set font, try my post on meeting word counts .

Everyday Self-Care Products That Will Make Your Life Better

I have a lot of problems. Most of them are taking a lot of therapy and time to work on, but some of them were really simple to fix. I came across most of these solutions on accident, or through trial an error, so I’m hoping sharing this list will facilitate the lives of those of you who have similar problems. Chronic Greasy Hair My hair was always horribly greasy for most of my life. I started having to shower in the morning because if I showered at night, my hair would be a visibly greasy as soon as I woke up. Even showering in the morning wasn’t always enough. Most days my hair would already be greasy by the time I got home from school. At my worst I would shower in the morning and have to partially wash my hair again at night. Literally nothing I did helped. So, it surprised me when a couple months ago I started using this new shampoo that I got a sample of and noticed for the first time that my hair wasn’t a disaster by the end of the day anymore. It was apparently...

How I Met Casseus

I know this is more of a story than a rant, but it’s my blog, so hush. I was thinking something like this would be a cute way to bring up some old pictures of me and Cass, and it lets me talk about things that make me happy. So, if you haven’t heard the story, I hope you enjoy I, and if you haven’t heard all the details, you’re about to get more than you ever needed. The first job I worked at was as a bookseller for Barnes and Noble. I started working there not too long after my 17 th birthday, so I was easily the youngest person there. At the time, I think the next youngest person was about 19, so I was very much the baby of the store. I had been working there for about six or seven months by the time the Christmas season came around, so all the new seasonal employees were getting my hopes up for there to be someone else younger than me. I scouted out all the newbies, and only two of them looked like they could be younger than me. Like I said, it was Christmas season,...
