Big shoutout to Allison Gray for generously granting us permission to feature her song, "Off My Mind" (from Ep 05).
I gotta get you out of my system. I gotta get you off of my mind. But how do I move on when no one compares? They only keep me occupied. I try to shake them off so desperately but you pull them tighter, string me along. It's sad, but I'm so gone. And how do you do it? Live with yourself.
Speaker 2:Hey guys, I just want to take this opportunity to say that we have been doing podcasts for one year. Can you believe it? Yay, yay, for one year. Can you believe it? Yay. I honestly have to probably listen to all of it to remember what we talked about.
Speaker 4:Do you feel that way?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't remember a thing, yeah, yeah, just the last topic and then the one before, maybe, yeah, Well, hopefully we have talked about interesting things and we can look back on it at some point or re-listen to it again, if you ever listen to them. So today I think we're going to talk about dreams, maybe before we dive into how we decided to talk about this, do you guys ever dream and remember in the morning when you wake up? Because, personally, personally, I know I have dreams. There are days when I remember and I know that dreams happen during REM cycle. But oftentimes I'm thinking like, oh, I gotta tell, like you know, my husband about this dream that I had, but then, as the day goes on, I can't remember what it was oh yeah.
Speaker 4:That happens to me all the time, where I remember when I wake up and I'm like oh, I got to tell this, this is, this was a good dream, and then totally escapes your mind and then a week later it's like oh yeah, that was the dream.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but isn't that interesting, though, like for me, mostly it's. I dream about things that don't even make any sense, and I think it's common yeah me too, yeah me too.
Speaker 4:I morph into things. Sometimes People morph into animals. Or people's genders change or they totally change. Their races change.
Speaker 3:I can speak Spanish fluently in my dream. What?
Speaker 4:Are you serious? You're probably not speaking Spanish.
Speaker 3:I am. Sometimes I speak English Well, most times I speak Japanese in my dreams now, but sometimes I speak and understand Spanish.
Speaker 2:Wow, that is also interesting that you have dreams more frequently. I guess that makes sense, because you're using it every day in Japanese In Japanese yeah, so do you think it's Spanish because you have taken Spanish class?
Speaker 3:I don't know. I don't even know if it is Spanish.
Speaker 4:I think it's just a made-up language but your brain is processing it as Spanish.
Speaker 2:It's gibberish it probably is I know, but wouldn't it be great though that you can actually speak Spanish like that? Yeah, I know, but wouldn't it be great though that, if you can actually speak Spanish like that yeah. There are a lot of things that you wish that you could do in your dream, that you really can't do?
Speaker 3:Oh my gosh, I can fly in my dream, which. I love to do.
Speaker 4:I can only fly up straight up and I have to be looking up and, like you know, moving my arms up and down, like I have wings or something. I don't have wings and I can only go up, I can't go forward.
Speaker 2:And then I can go up so high.
Speaker 4:If I keep focusing, you know, at the sky, I can reach the universe Like my. The speed goes up real fast. I've been to the universe multiple times in my dream but I can't go forward. That's weird Like I can times in my dream, but I can't go forward. That's weird Like I can, but it takes me so long, it's so slow like in slow motion.
Speaker 2:So I just go up instead and then come back. I can come back down too, okay. So when you're in the universe, do you go in like do you land on another planet?
Speaker 4:No, no, no, no, I'm floating. No, I don't see other planets, and sometimes I see stars and sometimes I don't see stars. One time it was so scary, I don't even know how to describe it. It looked like dark clouds, but it was the universe. My understanding was it was the universe, dark clouds though, and there was lightning. So I know it can't be the universe, but it was in my dream and it was a scary, scary like hole almost, and I knew I didn't want to go there. So then I came back down like in high speed. Yeah, oh, I don't know about high speed downward, but I do speed up going up. But the reason why I even try to fly is because I'm usually running away from something yeah, so then that's why I fly same can you guys fly?
Speaker 2:yes, I can well, kind of kind of similar to you, I can jump. It's like jumping. Yeah, I can jump, yeah, jumping high and when I actually yeah so I've never actually shut up to the universe.
Speaker 4:But I have try it.
Speaker 2:Look up next time and keep looking up and focus, you'll speed up and you'll reach the universe, but I can get to the top of, like you know, tower or something, but when that happens sometimes I don't make it so. When that happens, obviously like if if I'm like jumping yeah, I fall, but when I fall it's like you know how you get this tingly feeling when you're on a roller coaster going down like I feel that yeah you feel that when that's scary, yeah, doesn't that wake you up?
Speaker 2:no, it doesn't what. So? So it's only like you said, it's only when I'm running away. So that's my flying like. I cannot fly for some reason yeah, even when I try flying like I, it fails yeah, me too.
Speaker 4:I can't run fast either. It's like there's like a wind or something pushing against me like it's in slow motion so I don't even try. I just just fly up.
Speaker 2:Next time try it okay, it's the universal try.
Speaker 4:Do you guys feel pain?
Speaker 2:in your dreams.
Speaker 1:I have felt pain.
Speaker 4:Once I got cut by your friend in my dream. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2:But my friend or whose friend?
Speaker 4:Yes, your friend. Who Cody, your friend? Oh, okay, yeah, she cut me with a sword.
Speaker 2:And she's the nicest person.
Speaker 4:I'll tell you later who it is, but she's the nicest person. So it's clearly a dream. She caught me and I felt that sharp pain and I mean I wasn't severed or anything, it was just like a, you know, a mark. She left a mark, but I felt it. I was like, yeah, and that was very distinct. That I remember. All the other times. I don't know if I remember feeling pain, samia.
Speaker 3:I sometimes feel pain. The most painful dream I've had is when I was ripped in half by a t-rex. Oh my gosh like completely in half.
Speaker 4:Were you, then? What happened? Okay, so I have a question are you? Oh man? Because when I dream I noticed that most of the time I'm looking at myself, so I'm not in it. So, did you see your body split in half, or were you seeing? I was seeing? Well, no, it was me, it was you, like when you look down, you were missing, waist down yeah.
Speaker 4:Oh my gosh. What about you, kari? Like, what do you do? You see yourself from the outside perspective or do you see it in first person? It's both, it's both sometimes I think, sometimes it's yeah, I think sometimes but yeah, it's usually first.
Speaker 2:Okay, I have never gotten split in half. That sounds really painful. We're in pain either that hurts so oh my
Speaker 4:god, after that, I think you read too many books. Simi, I didn't die, though, huh. Yeah, I said, I think you read too many books.
Speaker 2:Yeah, wait, you didn't die, or you did die?
Speaker 3:I didn't. I survived, but I was in pain the whole time. So you know it would have been better if I just died and then did anyone like put you back together or were you back together?
Speaker 4:you don't remember what happened after that. Yeah, I think there was a scene change or something that Did anyone like put you back together or were you back together.
Speaker 3:I don't know what happened after that. Yeah, I think there was a scene change or something that sounds terrible.
Speaker 2:I have not got my body split in half like that, but I have gotten stabbed and shot from the back. Not on the same dream, like different occasions, you know, like when you? I guess we've never gotten shot so we don't know for sure but in the movies and such, when you see someone getting shot, obviously it's not real, but you know how you jerk a little bit like when you get shot.
Speaker 3:Like.
Speaker 2:I felt that like my body jerk a little bit, and then I felt such a pain and I realized that I was getting shot Of. Of course, I don't really know if it was because it was from the back, but same with getting stabbed. I was stabbed with a knife from the back and I can't remember who did it or what.
Speaker 3:what led up to it at all. My gosh that's scary yeah that was definitely.
Speaker 4:I could feel it and I was like, oh my god, that hurts. Yeah, do you guys see dream in colors, or do you not remember I?
Speaker 3:I think I see colors I see colors, colors because I think sometimes I remember what we were wearing or something, and it's not gray and black or white I see colors and I was talking to kawori earlier, but this kind of sounds sad but the prettiest scenery that I've ever seen in my life was in my dream. Do you know where it was?
Speaker 4:oh yeah I don't know where it was. What did you see?
Speaker 3:but it was like I think it was a sunset, but it was so colorful. Yeah, it could have been a sunrise, I don't know, but it was so pretty. I don't know how to explain it, but interesting.
Speaker 2:Oh, it was so pretty so lucas always remembers this dream. My son he I think he was like when he was five. He said that he dreamt that he was in a world where everything was gray except a car which was red, and he still remembers this dream.
Speaker 2:I don't know exactly what he was doing, yeah but it must have kind of yeah, had an impression on him that he told me about it. I was like, oh my gosh, wow, what sounds interesting. And I think it's one of those dreams that he still remembers is his favorite color, black still.
Speaker 2:Yes, I mean black is technically not a color, but yeah, so otosan used to tell us, or told me, or maybe you guys too, our dad used to dream, I think in black and white, and I think he still does. We'll have to ask him about that, but he said that he dreams are always black and white I think that's crazy my dreams are in color. Yeah, I don't know if it's because he's experienced like watching tv in black and white or yoko, I'm not so sure.
Speaker 3:Maybe because of his generation, don't know oh, I have a question do you guys taste things in your dream.
Speaker 4:I don't know. I don't think I ever eat in my dream I have.
Speaker 2:I know for sure I've smelled things, but I I'm very sure I've eaten it too. But I remember smell is more strong for me, I think.
Speaker 3:Really. Yeah, I can taste things.
Speaker 4:Yeah, yeah, it's our brain right Like remembering how things taste or how things feel based on what you know. Yeah, yeah, I don't think I've ever eaten before. I don't think I've ever tasted, but I think I'm with you on the smell. I think I've smelled eaten before. I don't think I've ever tasted, but I think I'm with you on the smell. I think I've smelled in my dream, like certain smells. So do you.
Speaker 3:I don't know if I smell things, I just know I taste things Interesting. The other day I had a dream that my husband made cookies for me and I ate them and it was the best cookies. I've ever had in my life, which is yeah yeah, this was my dream, which again sounds pretty sad, but yeah, so good does he bake?
Speaker 4:cookies. No, you should encourage him by telling him the dream.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I told him, yeah, and it was so good. And I remember I think saying, oh my gosh, this is so good. What did you put in it? And I don't remember what he said, but he says something. It's definitely not something you put in a cookie Like a secret ingredient.
Speaker 2:I forgot what he said. Was it the taste or was it the texture, or both, both, both?
Speaker 3:Okay. So it didn't really have a texture of a cookie, it was more like a biscuit, but it was a cookie, or it was supposed to be a cookie, and the taste was it had a chocolate flavor, but they weren't chocolate chip cookies Like brownie type. Yeah, but not Was it brown like brownie.
Speaker 4:Yeah, maybe more like Oreo cookies.
Speaker 3:Yeah, the texture was really good. No, not Oreo Well it was.
Speaker 2:Maybe it was just like completely made up flavor, I guess that was amazing, maybe yeah but it was so good. Yeah, any happy dreams that you remember.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I have a lot of happy dreams too, but I don't think I remember them as much as I remember fear, because it's just that fear is like no joke. How I fear, yeah, yeah, like what? Like I told you when the kids like earlier before this podcast, we were talking and I had mentioned about losing my kids somehow one way or another, is like the biggest fear I ever feel in my dream. And it's always Kikol, like she either wanders off or she, the older one, she wanders because that's her personality. You know she either wanders because she'll talk to strangers in real life and you know she kind of wanders off in her mind all the time. So in my dream it's like amplified and she disappears often.
Speaker 4:Yeah, so you know, matt, my husband had back surgery and he was crippled for a while and I guess that got to the kids when they saw him at the hospital and everything. So both of them, if they have scary dreams, they'll tell me. Like I had the scariest dream. There was an intruder and mama, you protected us and I'm like where was Papa?
Speaker 4:They're like I don't know, like he's never around you know, in their dream, or like they don't protect, you know, the kids, like they see me as the protector because you know Matt was crippled. I think that's why, because right around that time is when they would always say you saved us, and I don't think that's so funny.
Speaker 2:That's good that you were there, I guess. So both of them are just one, both. Oh, that's so interesting always. So I mean any fear based dreams oh yeah, I do have.
Speaker 3:Well, I can't, really can't think of one at the top of my head yeah, I have never had a dreams where I lost a child or anything.
Speaker 2:I've never had any dreams about intruders, nothing.
Speaker 4:So what is your? You don't have fearful dreams, then, I must, I don't remember. I mean, if you're flying, you're running away. You said from something that's true.
Speaker 2:But I don't.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you just don't remember it? No, but it's usually it not.
Speaker 2:Usually it's always from something, from someone that I don't know.
Speaker 4:So I've tried to fly with my kids and that's harder because they weighed me down, but again, if I look up, I'm good. You, you guys, should try it sometime, if you can remember but okay cody, I remember you, but I can't fly you can fly forward real fast, or is it slow? Because I feel like I'm very slow. Well, it depends.
Speaker 3:I'm very slow when someone's coming after me. And they catch up with me. But then I can be fast.
Speaker 4:Cody, I remember you told me before and I don't know if you still do this, but you told me in your dream sometimes you wonder is this a dream? And in your dream sometimes you wonder is?
Speaker 2:this a dream and in order to wake up, you said you would do backflip.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I remember, I still do that. You still do that. Yeah, if you think that it's a dream, why wouldn't your brain just wake you up? No, it doesn't yeah.
Speaker 2:So obviously that is fear-based. I just honestly don't remember what scary situation I'm in. But yeah, when I have to like wake up or I at some point realize, oh, this is a dream, so then what I do to get out of it, I just don't wake up on my own but I do backflip in my dream and then that's how, like, I wake up. Sometimes it's really hard because I know it's a dream and I do the backflip and I could tell like I have such a hard time opening my eyes. So it's like I think that's where I'm like half conscious, half not trying to wake myself up to get out of this, like whatever dream I'm in. So I've had time where I had to like really like open my eyes and I had really hard time like waking up, but in those cases I did a backflip, multiple times.
Speaker 4:Just a disclaimer you cannot do a backflip in real life. So I cannot, the fact that you even think about doing the backflip to wake you up, like you should know. Oh wait, this is definitely a dream, because I'm about to do a backflip.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but is it one of you who turns the light switch on or off, or is this something that I read? I don't know anything I think I read that if you're in a dream and you wonder if it's a dream, all you have to do is turn the light switch on, and if it doesn't turn, on your dream yeah apparently it's a dream because in reality it should turn on well, there's no light switches nearby in my dream.
Speaker 4:I don't ever recall being by a light switch or seeing it in my dream but. I also don't ever wonder is this a dream? Do you see me? Um, I only remember a few couple of times when I did yeah but usually I don't you know, I just think it's reality yeah, no matter how crazy the dream is no matter how people morph into something else. I still don't realize. It's a dream in my dream and it makes sense in my dream at that time, Until I wake up and I'm like, well, that was stupid.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I must have this quite often because even like, if I'm like swimming or something, and if I know I'm in my dream, then I breathe, because you can breathe underwater if it's a dream?
Speaker 4:no, I never my brain doesn't go there, mine doesn't either I may be breathing, I don't know, but I don't ever think, oh, I know, this is a dream, so I can breathe in the water I've done that multiple times underwater, but in reality I never do that, I never go.
Speaker 2:Is this reality or I don't have to check? Obviously, for some reason only happens when I'm dreaming. Oh, this is a dream, so I can breathe now. I mean, I've had that many times. That's weird, it is crazy I remember um.
Speaker 3:I had this dream where I was at a party yeah and I thought it was new year's, because everyone was all dressed up and everyone was counting down. They started from 10, 9, 8. I was like, oh, it must be new year's because everyone was all dressed up and everyone was counting down. They started from 10, 9, 8. I was like, oh, it must be new year's. Then 4, 3, 2, 1, and I woke up everyone was counting down, counting down to your wake up I thought that was really funny, oh my gosh.
Speaker 3:I was like oh my god do you guys ever okay?
Speaker 4:so I have a dream where I'm always, I always encounter dirty bathrooms, like dirty public bathrooms.
Speaker 3:Oh my gosh, yes me what you do too yeah.
Speaker 4:I don't know why. I don't know if I'm actually trying to use the restroom or if I'm trying to change whatever it is. I somehow, oh, oh, I know I'm trying to use the bathroom a lot of times, right too, and then I go in and it's always disgusting or there's no doors yeah, most of them, yes, me too, yeah.
Speaker 4:And then, and then a lot of them are side by side and then, um, like, I mean like facing each other without doors, and um, and then a lot of times it's clogged and like water is overflowing. And then there's showers, sometimes too, and some facilities that I go in that are just as dirty, and some of them are combined with men's. It's like unisex bathroom and it's disgusting Every time I have to pee in my dream.
Speaker 2:So it says here that I just looked, looked up what that means because that sounds very crazy. But what you looked at what it means to dirty dreams, a dirty toilet, dirty toilet dreams indicate dream. Yeah, dreams indicate toxic thoughts, emotions, beliefs, judgments or relationships. To see a dirty bathroom, full, or even back flooded toilets, implies that one needs to try to sort out problems in life. Oh, really that doesn't sound, it could also mean that there are feelings for people in waking life that one needs to get rid of.
Speaker 3:Huh interesting, I don't know do you guys ever dream about your teeth falling out?
Speaker 4:Yes, no, yes, because I have a lot yes Okay.
Speaker 3:Or like I feel, like I'm like I could tell it started to loosen.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yes, me too. What? And then, yeah, it's just weird, I've also.
Speaker 4:And then what? They just naturally fall. Or do you take a bite of something and it just goes?
Speaker 3:crumble. Yeah, it could happen both ways.
Speaker 2:The worst time was. I've had it multiple times, but worst was when I was falling off the building. The teeth was going like just like flying out because I was falling that was yeah, so here it says. So I had to look it up, because obviously it's not just me, so are you devastated. Obviously, like you're aware, you lost your teeth and you're just so devastated or like freaked out. Yeah, yeah, that would be devastating, yeah that's never, happened to me.
Speaker 3:That's so strange, it's happened to me multiple times really, really, wow.
Speaker 2:So it says here that I mean obviously there are a few different ways to interpret some of these dreams, but here it says many people believe that a vivid dream of teeth falling out can symbolize recent loss of something important like a job, relationship or loved one.
Speaker 3:Nothing comes to mind.
Speaker 2:Or you are afraid of something and that you're not dealing with it.
Speaker 4:I think it just means you need to make a dental appointment. You just haven't. So it's just your dreams way of reminding you, don't forget. Well, that's interesting, that's so weird, but I will notice. Sometimes I look down and I don't. Somehow I don't have any pants on or something. Oh my God, does that happen to you guys?
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 4:What I'm like. Wait, what am I doing Like I don't have any pants?
Speaker 2:on? Is it just your pants or clothing in general?
Speaker 4:I think, usually just like pants. I'm just in my underwear. I'm like what the heck and I do feel like wow, why did I step out like this?
Speaker 2:You know, oh, my gosh, Like I understand that that's not right in my dream.
Speaker 4:Oh, I understand that that's not right in my dream. But then it's like what the heck do I do? I don't know. That happens a lot. And then actually the kids told me too that's happened to them. Like I think it was any girl that told me yeah, she was like, it was so weird. She's like because, and I was so uncomfortable and I'm like I have that dream too Sometimes. It's just so weird. Ok, so I'm like I have that dream too.
Speaker 2:Sometimes it's just so weird, okay, so there's a New York times article about it.
Speaker 4:Forgetting pants. Okay, it means, I mean, I'm forgetful in general.
Speaker 2:I've never forgotten my pants, oh it says it's um dreaming of not wearing pants represents vulnerability and feeling unprepared well, I'm always unprepared for life yeah, so I guess that's what it says. So it's happened to you multiple times, or just yeah yeah, yeah, many times.
Speaker 4:And it's weird because, like I'll be going about my day and then I look down, I'm like oh my gosh, the whole time I didn't have pants on.
Speaker 2:You know like no one said anything um yeah, have you guys had a dream where something came true?
Speaker 3:I can't remember yeah actually maybe, but I had a dream. I had a dream that okasan got stung by a bee and it came true I mean, I guess that's always a possibility.
Speaker 4:What like 10 years down the road?
Speaker 3:no, it was that day that day. Yeah, I told her about it in the morning and then she got stung by a bee that day oh, I mean, I don't recall.
Speaker 4:I may, I may have, but not that I remember.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it might be like deja vu kind of situation yeah, I have a lot of deja vu yeah, do you remember anything?
Speaker 4:I mean I don't anymore.
Speaker 3:But no, I don't, I only just remember in the moment yeah, I have had deja vus too, but okay, can I tell you you about my favorite dream that I've ever had.
Speaker 3:Yes please, I'm going to keep it short. So I think it was when I was five or six because we were still living in Japan and I had a dream that I was at this vegetable garden and these vegetables were huge. Either the vegetables were huge or if I was really small, I don't know, but the vegetables were really huge. And I was playing on these vegetables, jumping on tomatoes like trampolines and whatnot, and then there was this little boy that came up to me I think it was an elf, because he had like pointy ears and he was like hi. And I was like hi, and you want to play together? And he was like sure, so we played in this vegetable garden, we had a really fun time. And then the elf was like hey, so I have to go home now. And I was like oh, can we hang out again? And he's like yes, but it might take a while for me to see you because he said that he travels around in kids' dreams all around the world.
Speaker 3:And I remember him saying like I don't really remember the exact name, but he was like well, yesterday I was hanging out with a boy named Tom in America, and the other day I was hanging out with this girl named blah blah from I don't know Germany, and today I came to you in your dream to see you see me, you know, in Japan. Wow, that's cool. Yeah, he was like yeah, so I travel around the world, you know, going into kids dreams. And I was like oh well, that's really cool. And I was like well, can I see you again? He was like well, if you remain a good girl, I will eventually come see you in your dream. I remember that. Did he come back?
Speaker 2:No, not yet. Maybe I'm not being good enough, I don't know. Well, maybe he aged, because that was when you were five, so he could now be much older. He appeared in a different form, potentially a much older self.
Speaker 3:Well, I feel like he's going to remain young for some reason. Yeah, Like if he appears that's a cool dream isn't it?
Speaker 4:I think he's not real. Yeah, but I'm just kidding. Do you guys remember when we were little? We would say let's hold hands and see if we can be in the same dream.
Speaker 3:I don't remember.
Speaker 4:You don't remember that I don't know which one of you. I tried it when I thought like if it was both of you, I was gonna say but how can you?
Speaker 2:we were not even in the. In japan, we're all sleeping on the when we were really a lot younger and I we've tried it multiple days and then obviously it didn't work.
Speaker 4:I don't think we would share our dreams and it was never the same. Speaking of that, that reminds me you know how I used to put the kids to sleep when they were younger is because they would not want to go to sleep. I used to say, okay, well, let's meet in your, in our dreams, where do you want to meet? And then they'd be like excited. Oh, I remember we used to do that too. Oh, really, that I don't remember, but I remember trying to get into each other's dreams when we were little by holding hands.
Speaker 1:We thought that would work.
Speaker 2:That's cute. I do not remember that. We must have been really young, like you said.
Speaker 4:Yeah we were young Holding hands.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I guess we were all in a bedroom. We had bunk beds. I mean, I was on top, tomo, you were on the bottom and Sumi was on the ground. Is that right, sumi? Was she in the same room?
Speaker 3:Yeah, were you on the ground? I don't think I was on the ground.
Speaker 4:Was I on the ground? I don't remember her in the same room? I don't either. Okay, she was probably with her father and mother. We'll have to ask them.
Speaker 2:Well, probably because I have fallen from the top bunk before, you must have not been directly by the bunk bed oh, you know, I used to get yelled at by my mother because I used to wet the bed.
Speaker 1:Remember till I was in first grade yeah you were bad and I remember specifically this one time.
Speaker 4:I had a dream and I had to use the restroom and I went to use the restroom, I sat on the toilet and I went and I remember I woke up in real life and I was going and I was trying to explain to her about that. I was like I was going, I went to the bathroom and then then, and I was really trying so hard to tell her I was really trying to go to the bathroom and she was just yelling and I was so trying so hard to tell her I was really trying to go to the bathroom and she was just yelling and I was so mad I was like, but you couldn't tell it was. You were dreaming right at the time. Of course I couldn't tell. I really thought I went to the bathroom.
Speaker 4:But, like I don't know if it happens to you guys, but sometimes that happens to me, where I I mean not recently, especially in college I used to do this because it was hard for me to wake up to go to morning classes in college because I would stay up so late at night. Anyway, I would like half wake up, half be asleep and then, but then I would fully in my mind get ready for class and then I would really wake up again. I'm like, well, I'm still asleep. I thought I thought I got ready and I'll do it again, over and over and over again. It doesn't happen anymore, but in college that happened all the time. I would literally like get ready 10 times before I actually woke up to actually get ready. I thought I was getting ready every single time and it'd be so annoying. Does that happen to you or?
Speaker 3:yeah, yeah, I've had those dreams when I'm getting ready to go to school or to work. It's so annoying, right, yeah, and I'm really exhausted the moment I wake up.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's when it was for me in college that's never happened, but well, I remember a dream where I was bawling my eyes out because you died, and so I was crying and crying and I remember waking up and I was still crying yeah, crying. It's kind of similar to how did she die? I wish I remember I was crying and crying and I remember waking up and I was still crying.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Crying. It's kind of similar to your. How did she?
Speaker 2:die. I wish I remember 真正活的来。 but that's the only time where, like, I was dreaming and I woke up and I was still crying, like you said.
Speaker 4:I was eaten by T-Rex. I was split in half.
Speaker 3:Oh my, gosh, that's so painful.
Speaker 4:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I remember this, but with crying. I don't think I've ever done that, but I do remember when I was in this is again, I think, half asleep, half awake moment. I remember in Japan when I had this dream, I was walking with a letter in my hand, walking to the post office, and then the alarm went off or something. I woke up, like my eyes happened to be on my hand when, like the first thing and I remember it was almost like the letter like disappeared, almost.
Speaker 2:I just kind of remember that where, like I think I remember you telling me this I transitioned.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I do yeah, I only remember it. You know happening to me something like that happening to me one time, but I think it was like the transition of like, from asleep to waking up. I I remember having that letter in my hand and my eyes just went there when I first woke up and it just looked like the letter had just like disappeared.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so we have a friend. We, as in my husband and I, have a friend who kept dream journal, which I think is a smart idea. He would just slip notebook under his pillow with a pen and he said that as soon as he woke up he would write about his dreams that he had, because that's the time you're more likely to remember. You know when I wake up.
Speaker 4:I need the light because it's pitch dark. Does he turn the light on to write that yes for?
Speaker 3:sure I think it was either one of you guys that said that when you would have like furikake in your pocket and if the bad guys come and get you, you sprinkle them with furikake and they'll just run away.
Speaker 4:I feel like you said that was it I? Think, I think, I think you used to tell me that you would not sprinkle, but like shuriken mitai ni, like a star knife or whatever the ninjas carry. I think you told me that you used to use it as a weapon and just throw it at people.
Speaker 3:I guess it was me. Then I thought it was someone. Sometimes I will remember that. Oh, I can just sprinkle them with furikake. I remember it was someone. I think, yeah, but sometimes, yeah, I will remember that I, oh, I can just sprinkle them with furikake. I remember it was furikake, like, like, like so you have to explain what furikake is. Can I explain furikake?
Speaker 2:well, it's like seasoning that flavored yeah the japanese people like to put yeah on top of rice. Yeah, yeah, kids love it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but sometimes a bottle will be empty and they get me.
Speaker 4:No, I mean, from what I understood, you were carrying furikake packets, no it was in a bottle.
Speaker 3:It was a bottle type.
Speaker 4:I thought that's what you used to tell me, but I don't know. Thanks for joining us today. Don't forget to review Sister Vibes and make sure to subscribe on the app of your choice so you don't miss our upcoming episodes. Until next time.
