Dreams

     When I hear the word "dream" the first thing that comes to mind is a simple bubble above ones head just like they're drawn in a comic.  The idea of a dream is so odd to think about.  I mean, how can someone be in such a deep state of mind and completely believe that what is going on in their subconscience is actually real.  The movie "Inception" looked really far into this and I found it really cool despite its fiction.  A thief infiltrates the subconscience of his targets to have a chance at getting his life back.  Once he gets people to dream within his dream, the whole world moves much slower, giving him much more time to accomplish things in the real world.  Inside the dream, whoever the dreamer was, they could control whatever happened in the dream with their thoughts because it was their dream.  The idea that one can have a dream within a dream is also presented in the movie; each time there was a kick or death, the dream would end and each person would go back to the real world.  Such an interesting idea that was stretched a little bit to make a really intriguing movie.
    In my personal experience with dreaming, I have found similar aspects to those of "Inception".  I've had a reoccurring one where I've been falling off a cliff and right before I hit the ground, I wake up realizing that I'm taking a deep breath of air.  I've actually had a lot of reoccurring dreams, but theres only 3 that stand out.  1.) When I get to school and realize that I forgot to put clothes on, and thinking to myself how I could have possibly missed such an obvious step in my morning routine.  2.) Running from someone who is trying to harm me and I am incapable of moving faster than a slow walking pace, which is extremely frustrating.  3.) I am on a really fun vacation having the time of my life and just as I reach the peak of my good time, I wake up and realize that Im in my bed and have to go to school in an hour.
   Everyone has different dreams, but there's my experience with them.  What a weird concept they are.
