Dreaming

Because its just another boring day of ye Easterlies break, while lazing about I thought it would be a perfect time to practise daydreaming! I found out on da twitter (via uberfacts) that daydreaming can actually be good! o_O. And I thought it's a great way to let my mind drift off without sleeping. And on the plus side I'd actually have a controllable level of control over my thoughts! Unlike dreaming I don't know what I'm going to dream about, and once I am dreaming I'm not good at going lucid. Not that I want to though.
Daydreaming is better because;
  • • I can go remember my thoughts more                                                                                           • I can keep my eyes open                                                                                                                      • I can pretend to be working/ listening                                                                                              • Can still be aware of my surroundings                                                                                                • bacteria won't build up in my mouth                                                                                              • It's like dreaming but having more control, without having to be lucid and plus I can  just snap out of it without being all grouchylies if I'm woken up before I want to.
  • Don't have to sleep to do it
Daydreaming is disadvantage to dreaming because

I don't get to recharge my-cell-f 
It can be a form of procrastonation
I don't have to be particularily tired to do it, so it may be distracting when I need to be getting on with other htings.
I may not take information in, but appear as though I am
I was doing it whilst reading 'The Hunger Games', which wasn't good because I had to go back and re-read a couple of pages!!

    Hmmn, sleeping in the day is bad as it messes up your body clock, and that is why old people always sleep in the day as they have started when they were tired when younger cas of late nights, and now do it all the time. Daydreaming is good because it is merely thinking about stuff, letting your mind wander, and gently steering it where you want to go. Lucid is kinda like observing your subconscious through your conscious (which is _you_). You are your conscious and your subconscious is the other part which takes in other information you don't. That's why lucid is good as it can help you remembering things you didn't notice. A trance or hypnosis is probably just lucid dreaming. Observing your subconscious is good and so is letting your conscious flow, and so is letting your subconscious take over night-watch. We have a subconscious because some time long ago, our brain split to allow us to watch ourselves when we were sleeping to keep safe from predators. Cats do this, but they generally stay in the same state. They kinda have a more joined subconscious, which allows them to dream and be awake and stuff. That's why they don't get startled by familiar noises when asleep (people walking, talking or moving.)

Altruism

Another v nice word up there with catharsis its the concept of acting selflessly; self-sacrifice for others Do you know what its like to have someone criticise your every step, every microcosmic fragment of a movement, every action you inadvertently burden until you begin to chastise your own thoughts?? This is who my mother is ostensibly marrying. Here are some frustratingly hypocritically things he says plus comments I would riposte, had I, the audacity: 'did you boil the kettle????? you're wasting money by filling it up all the way' - ok it says min 0.8ltrs and the hard water limescale has clouded the lucidity so you can't tell when it reaches it. So sorry for not being able to judge this minimum value by the weight alone or the metaphysical aqueous forces but evidently the divinity Poseidon was not by my side bc this subversive domestic corruption that is this slight overestimation is surely paralleled to regicide!! Someone hit up ma home g shakespeare bc seem...

CONDOLENCES ARE AVEC X

It seems my soul may have leaked slightly out of my spirit a bit in the exam hall today Unfortunately, for the past two weeks my sleep schedule has been abhorrently what one may consider abhorrently peversive: time of bed varied from 2-4am; time of awakening varied between 2-4pm. Thus, time spent in the realms of my dreams ranged from 12 - 14 hours. Though actually dreams only last about 5 mins even thus the latter utterance was totes nonsensical. Did you know you have multiple dreams but you only remember the most recent one in the morning (or afternoon) just before you awaken!!! Unless your dogs wake you up at 12 and then you fall back asleep and then you can remember two bcus surruptitious poodlie :3 But anyway, due to having to wake up just TWO HOURS AFTER FALLING ASLEEP (bcus unbreakable cycle), I'm sorry my fellow english language A level students, but one was unable to conceal; you all had to feel. Yes, I appreciate you all suffered the burden of the feeling the glacial ...

Waterproof; Nothing to Loose

Yesterday was really nice because my dad and Aunt's boyf went out shopping for technological items whilst my Aunt and I went down to the infinity edge pool. it was such a beautiful moment because while my Aunt was reading on the sunbed I was the only person in the entire pool (really long) and I just swam slightly following the curvature of the curves bcus love all your curves and all your edges; all your perfect imperfections. V invigorating experience just sitting on the outer edge thinking: how it do it?? how water vanish like dat?????? Also having my hair in a bun to prevent chlorine damage felt v revolutionary bcus by exposing my neck There was more opportunity for the cold of my soul to leak out and permeate, hopefully superseding the abhorrence of the radiating heat <3 However I was so grateful for the glacial coolness encapsulating me <3 Thereafter, I exited the perpetual phenomenon and allowed the aqueous droplets of chlorine (chemically intertwined with at least a f...
