Thanks to you, I have accumulated over 125 page views in only a week of blogging! I apologize for not posting the past few days. With finals comes less sleep, and less sleep means less dreams. I thought 'Maybe i'll post about something else' but soon realized that my life is pretty boring. But I got a solid 11 and 1/2 hours last night, so I have a dream to share.
As I mentioned in the first post (creatively titled 'First Post') the reason I've been having all these crazy dreams is because I am on the top bunk. We rebunked our beds because of a baller fish tank so the dream about fish I had last night makes it all come full circle. sorta.
<dream>
The dream started in a fish tank in my basement. Since my room mate couldn't take care of our fish, I had to baby sit them over the Christmas holiday. But there were some amazing looking fish sitting in plastic bags over the tank. One fish looked like Gill from 'Finding Nemo' another looked like the rainbow fish they show on National Geographic. These were beautiful animals, so I decided to put them in my fish tank.
I was very pleased with these fish, and my cousins were too. Until my little cousin asked me, "Why is that big one eating all the other fish?" I looked over to see a huge grouper with the Moorish Idol in his mouth. I had no clue how the grouper got in there but I looked closer to see that there were actually too. One was blue and the other one was yellow. Both the large, hideous fish were eating all the small beautiful fish untill there were none left.
At that point, when all the other fish had been eaten, the two huge fish went after each other, biting each others mouth untill they both floated to the top dead.
Then I was backpacking through the great Northwoods of Wisconsin. A thin, windy trail lead me through the towering hardwood forest. As to looked up to admire this pristine wildernere, I took a deep breath to have the cool, clean air fill my lungs.

Of all the dreams I've had, the first part of this last set could be the only dream where there exists an interpretation beyond 'this kid is crazy'. I thought for a bit to what that could refer. Is it the devastating impact of invasive species? Do the beautiful fish represent the small business that multinational corporations wipe out? I'm not sure, but I have some chem to study, so I'll catch all y'all later.
