September 27th
This dream was a bit more mystical than the one during the night before; it's a lot harder to put it into context.
For some reason I was walking in an area with a lot of trees, with many poisonous snakes on the ground. Of course, I couldn't actually tell whether they were poisonous or not, but they had black bodies plus some weird yellow patterns on their skin, so I assumed they were. Also, these snakes were all very large. They were perhaps as thick as a person's leg.

Nightmare: Failure
September 26th
That night, I had a bad dream in which I didn't win any awards at all during graduation. I'm not sure if there was any other "major failure" in the dream, such as not getting into the university program of choice, but I remember I was absolutely devastated during that dream; I think I literally cried. This goes on to show how much it means to me for me to win an award.
But why is it so important to me? Of course, there is a practical side: this year I have actually set goals to obtain awards just so that I can have more things to put onto my resume. However, I think it's mainly about pride and a confirmation of my ability, just like how I care so much about my marks.

Dream: What is Fibonacci?

Dream: A Strange Adventure
Unfortunately this dream had so many components that I couldn't remember all of them.
Okay, I guess I will start with the most vivid part:
I was in some kind of camp, with my mom being the coordinator. There were a lot of adolescents, and most of them were either my age or close to 20 years old. Also, the camp was either in a mountain or in another isolated place. Oh, and I forgot to mention that even though there were a lot of people in the camp, we were made into "groups," with six or seven people in each group. Everyone was together during daytime, but the groups were separated at night.
There were two vicious people in my group. For two days in a row, they had already killed two other people in my group, for some reason that I forgot. Then, for the same reason, they threatened to kill me and my mother the next morning (it was at night when they threatened me).
After they went into their tents and fell asleep, I quickly went into my mom's tent and told her that we must escape. I think she was reluctant to do so because she was the only adult who could take care of the people in the camp. Fortunately, after some time, I finally persuaded her to drive both of us away.
After we arrived home, I was still very worried about the two murderers, and did a lot of things to ensure that they would never find me. For instance, I went onto the Internet and made sure that they wouldn't be able to find my picture or address on it.
The next day, I went to (summer) school. Apparently there was a huge project due on the day (which I didn't finish), but fortunately my teacher wasn't there. And since there was only the supply teacher, the students, including me, talked a lot (even during class time). There was this new girl whom I have never seen, but after talking to her, she seemed quite nice.
Then, after some events, the girl announced that she was actually a ghost! She said that she was also in the camp that I went to, and died because my mother wasn't there and a terrible thing happened. Most other people in the camp died too.
The next thing I knew, I was with my parents, my sister, and my cousin's family. We were in the place where my camp was! Also, one of the murderers was there, but he didn't seem evil or aggressive.
We began to live there. Somehow a house emerged and we didn't really need to worry about not having enough food. But I think there was something that we were worried about. Oh, I think the parents were worried about the children's education. Since the place was isolated, there wasn't any school nearby, and it was hard for us to receive education. I am not sure what the parents' solution was...
Anyway, for the rest of the dream I think I was basically exploring the house (which was quite normal). Also, I remember how another family moved to the place and opened a coffee shop...

Dream: Another one About School
Date 2011/08/03
This dream came in two parts.
First Part
I was in summer school, and in the class my teacher was taking up a test. For some reason I had a lot of questions about the test (probably because she took off a lot of marks), so I kept asking her questions. I think I especially questioned her wordings.
Eventually she grew impatient, and finally she said to me, "you are smart, but also annoying."
What happened next, I don't remember. I remember having some conversation with Michael, who apparently was a Martian. I asked him about the characteristics of his planets, as well as his real age. I remember how he said that on Mars, there was a different way of calculating one's age.
Second Part
This was actually related to the first part, but I was sure that it didn't come right after the first part.
Anyway, English class was about to start, and I was complaining to Jordan about the incident that just happened earlier (in summer school). I remember saying how it was the teacher's fault that she worded the questions so strangely, forcing me to ask a lot of questions.
Then, we came into the classroom. I remember the class from one of my recent dreams, for I immediately recognized the teacher, who was a slightly fat old man. Anyway, the teacher told us that we were going to have a test, a test on part of the novel that we were supposed to read.
This was shocking, for I haven't even read a page of the novel! I could actually remember how in the previous dream he told us to read about fifty pages of it, but obviously I didn't read it. Even more scary, he forbade us from the usual last-minute studying, and did not allow anyone to open their book in class.
Extremely worried, I asked the girl beside me to summarize the book for me. She was actually one of my classmates from grade five. Anyway, she did, but obviously she couldn't tell me about all the details and I couldn't even remember the events.
Then the teacher handed us the test.
My thoughts on the dream
The first part of my dream seems to reflect the truth, for when I was in summer school, I did ask the teacher a lot of questions. And even though the teacher didn't show it, I would imagine her to be quite annoyed by me.
I found the second part far more interesting, for it was actually continued from one of the dreams that I had before! Now that I think of it, Jordan was also in the English class of the previous dream! Also, I should note that I have had a similar dream before, in which I forgot to do a project.

Dream Journal
Two days ago I made a post named Dream: Terrible Mark in Summer School, which basically described, in detail, a particular dream that I had. I was going to post an explanation as to why I would suddenly to make a post about my dream, however, I got too busy and was unable to do so until now.
Anyway, recently in summer school I have learned about dream analysis, and was a little bit fascinated by it. Therefore I have decided to try it on my own.
Obviously I am not going to make obscure and random connections, such as how my teacher linked "wearing a white shirt" with "having emotional problems" (to date I still cannot understand how this connection could be made). Instead, I am going to use my own experiences and understandings of myself to make reasonable conclusions about myself and the ways that I think or feel. For example, the Terrible Mark in Summer School dream clearly demonstrates that I despise my summer school teacher, a fact that I have been unsure of since the beginning of summer school.
I can probably only do this for the dreams that occur on Friday or Saturday nights though, because I don't think I will be able to record my dreams during weekday mornings. Also, I would only make posts about dreams that are particularly interesting or vivid.
So, during the next few days I will update Dream: Terrible Mark in Summer School with my analysis. I hope it's not going to be too bad.

Dream: Terrible Mark in Summer School
Update: I am probably not going to add my thoughts/analysis to this post
Note:
The names have been slightly altered to avoid recognition:
I was in a large, dimly-lit room, and apparently that was my summer school class because my summer school teacher was giving back an assignment that we did a long time ago (in summer school), involving some kind of artwork. She called the students' names one by one, and after a while I finally heard my name, so I got up and took my assignment.
I looked at my mark... a seven out of ten! I was furious, because once again my teacher was giving lower-than-I-deserve marks. Nevertheless, I wasn't that angry because the others probably did worse than me. So I started to go around and ask for (or peek at) other people's marks.
I don't remember how many people's marks I saw. However, I do remember seeing the marks of two students— Nathan and Anton. They were both students in my day school that weren't very intelligent, but they got 80% and 86% respectively! Also, from what I remember, one or two other students got 92.5%.
Now I was actually furious, for my mark was bad even after compared to the rest of the class! Out of anger, I tore out a portion of my assignment. Then, I noticed that by accident, I had also torn out a portion of another student's, Joanna's, assignment.
