Writing for writing’s sake! Long or short, if I take great pride in how something was written, it gets filed here!
I don’t consider myself a writer (and by that, I mean I’ve never done NaNoWriMo or anything like that), and don’t really enjoy writing…unless if it’s about a topic I actually enjoy like guinea pigs, small animals, (sleep) dreams and so on.

  • More of those college dreams…

    My more recent college dreams seem to portray me as a graduate. :O Like this one where I was visiting a college campus and found this one class being taught by my fifth grade history/Language Arts teacher. :O And another class (science, I think) being taught by my grandma. o.o I ran out when my grandma saw me, since I didn’t want her to think I was skipping school (even though she knows very well IRL that I already graduated).

    Then there was this other part where I was with some relatives in Channel Islands’ new library while it was under construction. Some of the rails were missing and (railless) walkways were falling apart, but despite that, it was open to the public! 😀

  • Dream: The Real Maya

    Bwahahaha, I just remembered I had a dream where there were multiple Mayas.

    (For those who don’t know: Maya.) Each one was different.

    Some still had their tags intact (that little cloth-like tag that has info like the manufacture, laundering info, etc? Yup, I cut Maya’s tag when I was very little, so there’s only a white line on her bum. ^^;).

    Some had white lines on the backs of their heads from where other tags were cut off.

    Some were posed a little differently (ex. they were standing, instead of sitting).

    They all roughly had the same amount of wear and…baldness. My job was to find the original Maya (i.e. MY Maya).

    (The ones with the tags intact, I tried to see if I could find the store names, since I wanted to know where Maya came from. :3)

    (Ha, this reminds me. I also had another dream where I discovered the origin of another bear Maya was based off of. This bear was named Amateur. He dressed like a steampunk pilot with a leather jacket with goggles.)

  • Dream: Sugges—Subjective Coding

    About three years ago, I had a lot of dreams where my mom and dad had another kid (in some of them, said baby was adopted), probably spawned from my desire to have a third sibling. ;o; (Especially after seeing a certain three year old cousin of mine.) I got over it, probably because I learned that said cousin can throw really…wild tantrums. :O Not so much the diaper thing. I’ve seen my mom change L’s diaper when she was a baby, and I thought it was more cool than gross. But just the tantrums. Yeah.)

    But I had another one last night! :O Probably because of Zoey, and how she’s like a fourth kid in our family (unlike Muffin and Peach, who only need to be fed, brushed and their litter boxes cleaned). Zoey needs to someone to play with her and keep her company, otherwise she gets bored (and sits at the front window, barking wildly at people on the sidewalk or the neighbors).

    But before that, I also had a dream that one of the OpenOffice.org developers left me some “subjective” (almost called it “suggestive”) coding for me on the dusty surface of my laundry hamper (mentioned on their blog that they left something for “the owner of Giantpaper…”). O_o I kinda wondered, if it’s subjective, does that mean its meaning could depend on each person that interprets it? (“I think it’s creating an array…” “Looks like it’s parsing something….”)

    Right when I was starting to question HOW they were able to find out where I live, the dream switched over to the previously mentioned one, where we were at some kind of large warehouse, with brand new baby sister and a friend of my mom’s. Dad had gotten little sister ready in her stroller/carriage thing, and asked me to close the big garage door. I wondered for a moment if the noise of the door closing would scare her (kind of like how Zoey is scared by loud noises) before I woke up.

  • Dreams: It’s all About the Webdevs

    Dream #1: Web Developers and Their Guinea Pigs

    I was watching a video on guinea pig care. One of the things they warned about was when a guinea pig was doing something to them, that the owners not interrupt them, otherwise it would disrupt the relationship between guinea pig and owner. Ex. there was a shot of a GP jumping up and down (which last time I checked, was physically impossible for them to do?) on their owner’s back, which shows that they have a “web developer relationship”.

    (I then woke up thinking “Aww man, I don’t want to go to school!”)

    Dream #2: I Wonder if These Guys Have Guinea Pigs…

    An OC Jedi Master and Padawan team (“original character”, not “Orange County” :P) were at the Jedi Temple. The Padawan was a computer programmer/developer. She was also being bullied by another Padawan and she couldn’t figure out why. Eventually she found out he once had a girlfriend (another Jedi) who was also a programmer, who uh, died while coding. I tried to figure out why he would bully the other apprentice, unless if *gasp* he actually has feelings for her and didn’t want her to end up like his late girlfriend! :O (I also wondered why everything has to end up in romance.) Eventually the victim’s Master had a talk with the bully, who walked out like a cheerful little daisy, promising to do good in his studies and impress the other Masters. And that meant no bullying.

    (These dreams took place on different nights, btw.)
