Dreams, what do they mean?

I have always had vivid detailed dreams. Almost every morning I can remember my dreams, and I see dreaming as an enjoyable experience. Last night I had a strange dream that I couldn't quite get out of my mind. In the beginning I was sitting in a dark room lit by candle light with people I don't actually know in real life. I believe the room was an old play house my grandpa built for my cousins, because when David and I came out of it I was standing in their yard. We were arguing about whether or not to go camping. I didn't want to go, but since David wanted to I decided to go. After that I remember seeing snakes every where. It freaked me out. I sat down again on the ground and saw small brown snakes crawling towards me. I jumped up and ran away from it. This happened constantly through out my dream. I don't actually remember going camping in my dream, but I do remember being in a car with David coming home from it. I was looking out the window and saw the landscape seemed to be flooding. The ground was very soggy and I saw streams that were swollen. Once again I saw the snakes, but this time there were fish that were out of water gasping for breath. I felt sorry for those fish. I told David the next one we saw I was going to put it back in the water. We saw another on a bridge and I got out and pushed it back in, but it made a hissing sound but didn't hurt me. I saw then it was another snake, but this one was bright green and very large and had a head like a cobra. It just went into the water. Then David and I drove up to a mansion and I remember running up to the door and knocking and David let me in. Then there was a house keeper inside that talked with us about our trip. And that was the end. Veeery strange.

I decided to analyze it by what I could find on the internet.

Fish: he fish symbol has been used for millennia worldwide as a religious symbol associated with the Pagan Great Mother Goddess. It is the outline of her vulva. Some people believe that when you dream about fish you, will soon find out that you or someone you know is pregnant (water of the womb). Others believe that if you see fish in your dreams, it is a forecast for sickness and poor health.

Rogues, Pirates, and Bears Oh My!

I have recently created a rogue named Koann, and I have to say I am really liking it. I have made multiple rogues before and could never get passed lvl 15 because I always seemed to die..a lot. But this time I have heirloom weapons and the only time I've died is traveling to Booty Bay to get the pirate achievment. lol She was way to low lvl to do that, but I did it anyway. I am already lvl 32 thanks to heirloom items, and I can't wait until 40 so I can get my fast ground mount. I am also using a mod that my husband uses to lvl up. It's called tour guide I think. You just make your toon and then tell it where you are starting from and it tells you every quest to get to lvl up. It doesn't make you get every quest in an area, sometimes you even start a quest chain and don't finish them. That part bugs me a bit. I hate not finishing chains, especially if I have done a lot of it.

Last week Eternity Matters decided to have some fun on Pirate Day. It was a silly affair. Many guildies got a mod to help them speak like a pirate, and others just tried on their own. That evening some of us got together and had a race through dead mines. One lvl 80 and a character 15-25 went in together and raced to see who could get done first. I had a great partner, Syyiand was played by his younger brother and he was a killing machine! lol He went in as a balance druid and just moonfire spamed and when he gathered them all did hurricane. It was beautiful *cry*. Being a rogue, I just stealthed the whole way and followed him so I wouldn't get hurt. lol And of course the good part, we won! Our prize was an admirals hat. I can't wear it yet, but I will when I'm able to.

Today is patch day, and I'm excited. Onyxia is now lvl 80! I have no idea how hard she will be now, but of course I want to try it. I signed up for an ulduar run for tonight, but I hope that we get to do this now instead. But for all I know she could be too hard. :( Well, I got my fingers crossed.

I also decided to change Lunas's off spec to tanking. I have gotten a lot of gear recently to replace some of my blues or kitty gear. I've gotten a pair of boots, pants, helm, weapon, and two trinkets since I last tried to tank. I figured since I never played as kitty and trying to do the correct rotation was a pain I'd try to be something a little more useful. I found myself in a couple of situations just this past week that I could've tanked for the betterment of our heroics. Instead David had to switch to his tank so we'd have someone. He would rather play his healer, and it made me feel a little bad. According to WoW Heroes my tanking gear is up to 25 man Ulduar and 10 man ToC. I just need to learn how to tank again. Where to situation things and such.

Hobbies

Lately I have been trying to find something to do besides sitting in front of a computer screen all day. I have been thinking about it for some time now and have decided on a few things to start doing around the house to keep my mind occupied. First of all I use to take violin lessons, and I think I am going to pursue that again. I never got very far in my previous lessons before I had to quit, but I was able to squeak out a few simple songs. Needless to say, I have forgotten every single thing I learned from those lessons. I hope I can find someone nearby the give me lessons. I called a local music store and they didn't know anyone near here. So I am going to call another music store in another town close by. I really would like to start practicing again, I had a lot of fun with it.

I also use to draw a little. I never was very good at that either, but it's a hobby I enjoyed. My favorite subject to draw was my favorite anime Sailor Moon. I mostly sketched when I was in high school and just seemed to drop it for some reason. But tonight I decided to pick it back up while David was raiding. I had a picture on my desktop that I really liked so I decided to try and draw it. Here's the out come.



















I know it's a little light, the camera wasn't able to get it as clearly as I'd liked. I'm not that great, but I think you can at least tell what it is. lol The original picture had flowers surrounding it, but I wasn't comfortable drawing those yet. Maybe I will practice and go back and finish it someday.

Well that's all I have for now, later. :)
