super perfundo on the early eve of your day

everyone should watch the movie "waking life" at least twice. it's totally awesome and has made me think about a lot of stuff. and because it is about dreams, it brought me a dream last night! unfortunately, the dream wasn't lucid (meaning i didn't know i was dreaming and therefore couldn't control anything). but it was good.

i was at a school of magic. there was lots of stupid crap, like cats that could talk and shapeshift, but the best part was this forest. right in front of the school was a forest that kind of ran downhill. it was incredibly beautiful. the light was bright and clean, but soft and kind of gauzy. the leaves on the trees were a pale green. it was gorgeous. and everywhere there were sculptures and statues. i dont remember exactly what they were like. i remember two that had parts that were just suspended in midair. one was i think a little girl, or some human figure, holding out her hands. there was a small stone ball hanging above them, perfectly still but supported by nothing.

and there was a boy. i seem to think he looked a lot like that guy who was in freaky friday and is going to be in that hillary duff movie, which is kind of lame, but i dont think it was totally him. he was a beautiful person. we just walked around the woods for days and we talked and he told me things and showed me things. lots of things about magic. he was very good at telekinesis. he moved the free part on one of the sculptures. he told me to try, but i couldn't do it. it was incredible, i think we spent a week there. finally it was time to go. i remember other people, possibly my parents, telling me it was time to go, and we walked through the forest again. i was desperate to see this boy again, because i didn't ever want to lose him. being with him was amazing, i'm not sure entirely why. it was just a feeling of peace and love or something. i looked over and i saw the statue with the little girl, and i just stared at it and moved the stone. it was awesome. i wanted to show him i could do it. i also wanted to kiss him.

i don't think i got the chance. i remember driving away in my van with my parents and telling them that church camp this year was different, and that i didn't learn much about god, and instead just spent time in the forest. then i kind of looked back upon it as a dream, and brushed it off... mentioning that that guy from freaky friday was there. when we got home, they dropped me off at school for some reason. and the guy was there... except he didn't look the same. now he was someone i know in real life, from school. i wont mention names to avoid weirding out the other person and embarassing myself. but i called out his name, and he didn't hear me, and then i yelled "star wars" for some reason, and it got his attention but he was really embarassed. i didn't get to kiss him, which is probably good, considering he was a real person now.

it was a good dream. i want to go back to that forest.
