And I honestly can NEVER remember what they were about even just 2-3 hours after waking if I did have one.
You have to make a conscious effort to remember your dreams. Everyone dreams. We go through 90 minutes cycles of sleep at night, progressing from light sleep to deeper sleep, then back to light sleep, and ending with REM sleep and dreaming. We typically waken out of REM sleep during a dream. Normal sleepers spend about 20% in deep sleep, 30% dreaming, and 50% in light sleep. The interesting thing about REM sleep is that the brain appears as though it is awake during this time, even though this is the deepest stage of sleep.
But yeah, that sleep cycle explains why people who actually remember their dreams say they have 3 or 4 a night.

I had a really cool dream this morning. I dreamt I was on a huge boat, it was the size of a small city, and even had railways connecting the different regions of the boat. It was more of an ark, I guess. It even had highways, and cars, and a former student of mine was the hostess telling me about the place. And that makes even less sense.
I don't know why the hell there's always a train somewhere in my dreams. Trains and lifts. Go figure...

I think the symbolism is actually pretty obvious, Lira. Moving forward/up..chugging along towards a goal, etc. I thought you were smart? Fuck.

The dream I woke from this morning was weird as fuck, lol. I dreamt that I bought this really ugly bathing suit, with the 40's style high waisted shorts and a 3/4 length sleeves see through wrap top. It was so bizarre. But for some reason it made me really horny and I couldn't wait to show it to Jimmy.

But I've been having these dreams since I was six! Anyway, the important thing is: I WAS ON A BOAT!!!

Yeah even this morning I don't remember waking up with any recollection of a dream. I guess I am just weird like that. lol

Lololol. Well the really weird thing was that as I was trying it on, the sales girl kept coming and giving me extra pieces that went with it, like a blazer. The more clothes I put on the more aroused it made me. I guess cause I couldn't wait to take it off again.
Oh and I just remembered that in another layer of the same dream I was in some side scrolling video game that was half Mario Bros. and half Kid Icarus.
I wish I could actually remember my dreams. The only ones I remember are the ones I had as a kid. Which usually consisted of me playing in a forest with some unknown person and then these dinosaurs would start chasing us and we would have to run for our lives.

I know what happened. You went through a very traumatic experience in your life. It may have involved something white and huge, and your mind now feels the need to black everything out.
Overcome your fears so you can remember your dreams
