Be smart! don't get eaten by the smart one.
So... 5:34, got back from the seminar portion of the animation course. So much to talk about, but then again, I'm not planning to study before dinner. Hopefully Wen and Jason come over, and then maybe we'll d20 it to decide where to eat. Seriously speaking, I wouldn't mind another rice and grilled porkchop, but no mango shake this time for me. Just free water would be great. Morty's wings? hahaha. too many wings man. Not this time sir.
If I don't write about the dream soon, I might forget it, so I'll do that... later. It's not a short dream. Anyway, let's talk Svankmajer first. He's some Czech dude I think, did a lot of clay animation, sometimes combined with real life stuff and other stuff animation. He's crazy. Today one of the presentationers didn't show up, so we had more time than expected so we watched something today again. Anyway, some of his work is good... I didn't particularly like "virile games", it was too cynical and violent for me - dimensions/possibilites of dialogue was good, today we saw something called "Food", that was... interesting too. WEIRDED OUT though.
Dream time? sure. Right now I'm listening to the whole version of the GSG intro, light before we land. and... now I'm listening to TEMA I, some song on GSG soundtrack.
OKay! So... hmm... I think as the dream starts, we were in our actual Waterloo home, and we had some argument maybe about some Swanson fried chicken... I remember the microwave door being open and pieces of chicken and newspaper were around the place, not sure why. I think Duy and I were doing some sort of experiment. Anyway, we look outside from the upstairs window and it's very, very snowy outside, and then David knocks on the door and he comes in. His shirt has a few wet spots on it, and he explains that everything was good until he fell down when he entered our street (NOT ON OUR STAIRS :P ). So now he was kinda dirty, and then I predicted, "you want a shower, David?" but he said nah, it was okay.
Hmm... then he saw the chicken in the kitchen. So that ends the first part of the dream. It's weird, I'm not sure how David got there... there were lots of cars outside (and it was really dark, like, 9:00 pm), but I don't think David got a ride... maybe he walked here or something.
Now... damn, memory's fading. But now we're in a luxurious hotel, I think the same one as I had the Christa's blog dream. ... uh oh. I think I'm remembering a dream all of a sudden about the pho night yesterday... I had to choose what different people ate, so Lam (VSA former president) was to eat some noodles and some rice, but he wasn't so hungry so I had to give the rice to someone else. I think this might've been part of the Christa's blog dream.
So... *shifty eyes*... So we're downstairs in the lobby, I think Wen and Alan and David and Duy and... maybe Jason.. and I, we're about to go eat in the restaurant in the hotel. I think we were gonna have sushi. To be honest, I don't remember what happened here. So let's fast forward a bit.
Vinh Khang is here now. So I take the super fast elevator upstairs; it's... a futuristic elevator, that takes up a corner of the hotel. the weird thing is, I think if you stand at the wrong part when it's going up, you get squished and die... like someone made a bad level design or something. Anyway, so I go upstairs, and ... I can't find my room. I know where it's supposed to be, and the room number, but apparently the room isn't there anymore. So I call Duy up to help me find the room.
There's a guy at a desk on this floor, so I approach him, and apparently he says the floor is being rearranged. So Vinh Khang was there now, and he might've been crying or something, cuz I start complaining to the desk guy that this experience has traumatized Vinh Khang. Yeah, the dream's a bit fuzzy now. I think there was something in the room, now we can't find the room. Oh yeah, the desk guy looked like Burt from Memento.
So... I forget some more details, but that's the gist of it. In the Christa dream, we were mostly in the lobby and there... was something going on, like a musical banquet hall kinda thing, I don't remember.
5:48. I'm hungry. Time to burn Wen another GSG cd...
