Day of dream: last night
It was after canoe polo pool training. While we usually have trainings at NUS swimming pool, we did not in this dream. The swimming pool was nicer, and cooler (partially because it was sheltered).
Everyone decided to go for dinner somewhere nice (something related to my birthday...). So everyone decided to go wash up. As usual, the guys and girls went to the respective shower areas. The shower area similar to those in public swimming pools -- basic necessities met, and rather wet.
The girls went into different shower cabinets. I spent a really long time. Although that happens in reality, me spending more time than my team mates in the showers, I never go beyond half an hour... Forty minutes is the most I would spend. Yet in my dream, I spent so long that I was the only one left in the shower area. I kept getting the feeling that the soap has not been completely rinsed off.
When I am finally done, everyone was waiting outside, on the verge of losing their patience, some were teasing me. While we were walking, I realized that I took about an hour to wash-up... No wonder they were loosing their patience... Haha.
This dream reminds me of this once when I asked them to wait for me so that we can go for dinner at NUS canteen together. I was, naturally, the last one. (The guys were really nice to wait.) We went to the canteen together, but I left early, without having dinner, to catch the bus...

Dreams Episode 21
Day of dream: last night
Setting: my aunt's house, a bigger, more luxurious version
This dream is about an attempt to hide a murder committed. Involves my cousins, Ting (my younger cousin), Wen (my elder cousin), and Jun (Wen's boyfriend).
Ting murdered Wen and drugged Jun. Ting is going to hide the body and frame Jun. With a big fanciful dining table set up, with sumptious food prepared by Wen, Ting placed Jun on a chair, with him sitting upright. She then placed a fork and a knife in Jun's hands. Placing the food nicely in front of Jun, Ting pushed Wen's body under the table, trying to make it appear as Jun had killed Wen while eating and had stuffed her under the table in attempt to hide her body in a hurry.
Ting then turned to me, who had been watching the whole thing, not knowing how to react, and warned me against speaking a word about this to anyone. Then my mom and my aunt returned...
I can't quite remember what happened next...
Jun woke up. The body was not under the table anymore. It has been moved upstairs. My aunt asked me where Wen is. Ting shot me a glance. I wanted everyone to know that Ting has killed Wen, yet I dare not tell...

Dreams Episode 20
Day of dream: a few nights ago
This is just weird...
I was hot, confident, young, with a career of my own, and married (I told you it's weird). My husband, who did not quite appear in my dream yet I knew him from my dream consciousness, was a relatively young, sucessful, good looking, and charming man.
This seemed like a perfect marriage, if we were married to only one spouse. I was not my husband's only wife. (Yea, why would I marry a polygamous man?!) He had an older wife as well. She was posh lady, who gave a impression of a woman with a strong character. Although our family had no children, we lived together in harmony. My sister-wife and I maitained a seemingly good relationship.
Yet that day, I found out that my husband was seeing another woman. I was angry. I did not want another sister-wife to share my husband (which brings us to the question of how I came join this family). I told my sister-wife about it, and suggested we sabotage them. The usually decisive elder wife became an uncertain scardy cat. Perhaps I mentioned something about murder? *shrugs* I was venting my angst, cutting up the one-seat couch with a knife...
Scary + werid dream...
Maybe that is how I would be if provoked? Perhaps it also reflected some of my thoughts and feelings as well.
Side note -- I think this dream may be influenced by one of the episodes of Pushing Daisies, where the guy have many wives living together in peace (seemingly).

Dreams Episode 19
Day of Dream: last night
Setting: no idea
It was after training. The canoe polo team, guys and girls and coach, were walking back (to no idea where) on a complex pedestrian network consisting of roads, escalators, and travellators. Everyone was walking and talking. Tingan, Yingzhen and Hengfoo did most of the talking. Cannot quite remember what they said. Some random stuff...
Some of the guys were on the travellators above us. Jehon decided to be an urban monkey, and swung off the travellator, attempting to jump on ours. While he was about to jump, I was about to be directly under his travellator. He tried to stop, but lost grip and fell, almost killing me...
The group continued moving. It started to drizzle. Hengfoo gathered us under a big green road sign post by the side od the complex pedestrian network. Everyone was seated, and he was giving out the year 4s' exercise books. Reading out the names off the exercise books, Hengfoo suddenly said "Tan-Li". Everyone, except for the pranker and those in the know, was left in a state of confusion. Yingzhen started laughing, finding the notion of having "Tan Li" among us extremely amusing. Laughter was infectious, and the year 6s laughed along.
Finally Xuan Hao and Tiong revealed that Tingan had changed the name on her excercise book earlier, attempting a prank on Hengfoo. Everyone was amused, and laughed. Hengfoo inlcluded, except he was about to start on a lecture again... haha
Personally, I find the random associations in this dream puzzling.
First, why do we use exercise books in canoe polo? Besides our school uses foolscap paper instead of exercise books for assignments.
Second, how is Tan Li related to canoe polo? Why did Tingan change it to "Tan Li" instead of some other name?
Sidenote: Many details might be missing, and the order might have been jumbled up too. However I do think the prank is funny.

Dreams Episode 18
Day of dream: a few nights ago
I have no idea where I was. No specific place really. This is a really random one...
Theophillus, a schoolmate/classmate of mine, has a younger sister (not in real life though), about 3 or 4 years old? And I think Theo, with his sister, and I kinda bumped into each other somewhere (along the corridor at some HDB flat?). So I kinda offered to babysit his sister for awhile. Well, actually, I think I insisted to babysit his sister so that I can play with her.
So I brought (kidnapped?) her to the living room that look nothing like a HDB living room. The room is spacious, with a simple-minimalist couch lining one wall, and a simple-minimalist coffee table slightly in front of the couch. To the right of the couch is a glass wall overlooking a sea with ruins along its shores. The glass wall has a full-lenght maroon velvet curtain hanging over it, and can be converted to a gigantic television. (<-- definitely not HDB) Theo's sister was quite an angel... for a while at least. Then the little angel fell (not literally) and became a devil incarnate. But I was stuck with that angel-turned-devil, so I had to entertain her. I turned on the television (the glass wall thing), but that was not enough for her. She insisted I play with her and give her candies, and was jumping around and clinging on to me. I was so exhausted after a while I was simply staring at the sea scene beyond the glass wall while Donald Duck played on the glass, in silent mode...

Dreams Episode 17
Day of dream: a few nights ago
Setting: Ministry of Education Co-curricular Activity Branch Swimming pool + Clinic (the one that I work at)
My finger got injured a few weeks ago, and is currently heavily bandaged. So I cannot go down int othe water to play. (Real life reflected in dream...)
There was a game that day, but with my injured finger, I cannot play. So I got there a little late to watch the game (no faults here, there is no obligation for me to be early since I am not playing). The game was starting. The weird thing is, the chasers, with Yingzhen representing our team, were in the baby pool.
The referee tossed the ball, and the chasers went for it. They both got onto land, very far away from the pool, yet they both looked comfortable manuevering their boats on land, and fought for the ball. Yingzhen did an impressive stern turn on land, her boat bent in the middle (without breaking of course... the boat is suddenly flexible!), with the stern on the ground and the bow pointing skywards (unless your boat is made of rubber, or you have no objection spending a few thousand dollars getting another boat, do not try it). The game soon proceeded to the main pool, where the games are usually held, in real life.
I had to go for work, so I left...
The next thing I know, I am at the clinic. However there were already two clinic assistants there, two guy clinic assistants, which the clinic does not hire in real life, yet I knew they were the our clinic assistants. I stood at one side, in the cramped space, and thought for awhile. Then did I realize that I did not have any work slot that day. So I called someone (can't remember who, someone in the canoe polo team) and told her, "Ahhh! I don't have work today! I could have stayed and finish watching the game! Bleh." (or something along those lines)
