"iām in a convenience store that i donāt recognize with a gas station out front. There is a guy who i donāt recognize and weāre talking. He tells me that he is going to new york to visit his parents. i have a shopping cart full things. We walk out together chatting and stop outside the convenience store door. I ask him if he needs to use the shopping cart and he looks at the shopping cart almost confused or without expression, and I say āyouāre going East, right?ā He looks at my shopping cart and then at me. Our eyes lock in a moment and he super cute- not conventionally handsome but iām very attracted to him but in a safe and unusual way, like an instant crush. We have an instant connection. Something between us is unspoken and he never answers the question. Then I wake up. Iāve never seen this person before. He doesnāt look like anyone i know or have seen anywhere, But there is something so adorable about him and instant chemistry or connection (at least for me ā i donāt knkw what he was thinking) I woke up thinking who is that guy? I have to find him. "

"I dreamed that I was sharing a room with four people, each of us having our own bed. One of them was a friend I previously had some conflict with. In the middle of the night, I heard someone sneaking into the living room, so I quickly opened my eyes and saw someone entering the bedroom. I forgot what happened earlier, but it seemed like he was interfering with the dream within our dream, trying to send us wrong messages through the interference. He then walked between me and my friend and mistook me for her twin sister. He started talking, comparing the strengths and weaknesses between the two āsisters,ā trying to stir up conflict between us. The next day, I was really angry and went to tell my other friends about what happened last night. My high-school crush was also there. I tried to tell the whole group about what had happened, but my voice felt stuck, like it was so hard to speak. People didnāt seem to be listening, but my crush was still paying attention. Eventually, I was able to speak normally again. Then I found myself in a breakfast shop, as if I was waiting for someone. I picked a seat, and later my friend arrived with her mother (who was my primary school teacher), along with my own mom (who is her momās colleague). We sat together. A lady came over selling pastries. She asked once, and I rejected her. When I finally noticed that I was actually interested in one of the food items, she had already turned away to talk to my friend. She tried to call my friendās name, partly correct but not fully. Then my friendās mom said the full name. I was confusedādid this lady know us? Maybe she was one of our former teachers. After waking up (in real life) and falling back asleep again, I dreamt another dream. I dreamt that I was with my family on the roadside next to a forest area. I was sitting on a rock, and little lizards kept crawling onto my hand, and I had to keep flicking them off. My dad walked ahead, seemingly performing somethingālike he was returning a giant lizard to the forest. Then many small animals started running out. My dad came back, and just as we were about to leave, we saw an elephant walk out. I picked up my phone to take a photo, but our relatives ran over to take photos with the elephant first. After they all left, I stayed where I was (we were back on the main road) and lifted my phone again, but the elephant was already gone. I was confusedādidnāt they fail to take a photo with the elephant just now? Then I was in a spacious area that looked like a church. I met my high-school crush again. He was standing on the stage and asked if I was still single, as if implying that he would be upset if I wasnāt. The atmosphere turned romantic. We hugged and were about to kiss, but we felt that the spot was too visible. So we walked to a more hidden area (not visible from the windows), and there we held each other closely and kissed."
