Skate and Date

I'm at Pleasant Arena (the rink where I skate) and I think it's right before a competition or show, because almost no one is there and I'm practicing. I'm with one other kid and Tara, one of the coaches (not mine, but she does some of my classes). We're focusing on a one-foot spin (something I'll probably NEVER get absolutely perfect) and how to do it well for the show/competition. I try one and fail. Tara draws out what I should be doing. She says, 'Once you go into it, your foot goes around too high and you get stuck.' Basically she's saying that if you lift your leg too high going into the spin you can lose your balance. Then it's the show/competition and I'm 'backstage.' Then I go on with some other skaters and basically do whatever I feel like (guess I never got a program).
Then I'm in some sort of trailer park or state park and I'm with a bunch of people my age. I guess it's summer camp or something. We're supposed to get into partners/groups of 3 to play mini golf. These 2 girls ask me if I want to be in a group with them, to which I agree to do. Then later, one of them says she'd rather be in another group because they seem more trusting.
Then I'm at my dad's house and he's telling me I have a date tonight (with this guy I've been dating a few times in the dream; I never saw it happen, but I do have that information). This is news to me, and I ask what time. He checks something and tells me 4:30. I look at the clock and see that it is 4:25. I freak out a bit, but then realizing that we're going no where special (I don't know how I know that, considering I didn't even know I have a date that night), I decide that what I'm already wearing is fine. Then I meet the guy at the front door (I never got his name) with my glasses on; when I take them off, everything is underwater-blurry. But I keep them off because that's just me. I ask, 'What school do you go to?' and he answers, 'Freeman.' (Is that a real school? Sounds like it could be.) I tell him I go to Mahtomedi; he then asks what college I go to, and I laugh and say, 'I'm not in college yet; I'm only a junior!' Then we leave and we pass Julia in her yard doing tai-chi or something with her mom and a whole bunch of younger kids (I heard earlier that she was going camping that night), and I hug her from behind briefly and kiss the air around her face and say 'Hi Julia! I love you! Camping is awesome!'

Meaning- Skating in a dream shows my love for it already; however, goofing off and doing my own thing in the show probably means I'm not completely serious about it. The tip about spinning is probably real; something to keep in mind. Someone saying I don't seem trusting may mean I lie a lot or have lied (I have, once).
I've been having a couple of dreams about dating..probably meaning that I'm the perfect age to be doing that, and the dreams being practice. Julia, I think, returned from her week-long camp recently, so this was a hello, showing her in the dream. Tai-chi might symbolize relaxation and ease. The glasses thing probably means that if I don't start wearing them soon, I could have a few problems...

Love and Shove

There are these 3 girls, and they're all in love with someone. One of them might be me, or at least the 'main character' of the dream,  or this part of the dream. Anyway, the main character has an enormous house; so big that her room is like her own house pretty much. Another of the girls does not focus on one guy for a while, so throughout the whole part of the dream, she goes from one guy to the next. All of the guys we're in love with get mad at us for some reason, and then we make up and that's the end of the first part, haha. Happily ever after. At least for then.
Then I'm at a pool somewhere and a bunch of random people (supposedly my friends) are there as well. We are getting pieces of paper to write to a friend (so I guess we're in summer camp). I'm with this one person (my friend probably) watching him write a letter to someone. He's apparently pretty nerdy, and when he misspells a word, I'm surprised. 'You just spelled 'surround' wrong,' I say. 'There's a 'u' after the 'o'.' He laughs and corrects his mistake, and then there's this little kid there who has a crush on him or something. Then we're suddenly in my backyard (at my dad's house) and there's this weird she-man going all whack on us. The backyard has a bunch of clothes and stuff on the ground, and we're trying to cushion ourselves by falling into them while the she-man starts hitting us and stuff. That's about it!

Meaning- The big house may represent a desire for one, or something like it. Being in love may foreshadow a relationship. I guess the whole swimming pool idea is a summer thing, because today is the first day of summer! Writing things down may symbolize ideas and missing someone. A backyard with clothes on the ground may represent something cluttered, maybe the mind. A crazy she-man...that I  can NOT explain!!!!

School-a and Moola

 A bunch of people (classmates?) and I are in this big carpeted room waiting for this one dorky jock (oxymoron?) to come in so we can make fun of him. See, we told him there was going to be a big sleepover at someone's house, and so it would be funny if he came (I don't get it either). So we're all laying on the floor waiting for him to come. When he comes in we all laugh. I feel bad, though, as well as some other people. One older person tells us to stop laughing at him. However, the jock dork doesn't look affected at all. I start arguing with this one person who was laughing at him, and so does another person. So it's me, another stand-upper, and a mean person all arguing. Then we make up and everyone's okay. I had bought a few things from a drugstore and so I look inside, trying to find mouthwash. I find what looks like a pencil sharpener. I say, 'What the heck is this??' or something; everyone laughs.
Then it's the last day of school and it's lunchtime. Then the whole place turns into a grocery store except the commons (the cafeteria). I ran out of lunch money on my account so I have to go to the grocery store to get something to eat. A few students are there doing a photoshop project; they're taking a picture of one ginger kid. On the computer they'll put him against a background of an ocean with a shark coming out of the water; it will look like he's being attacked (weird!). I look for lunch things. I find a bag of chips, and look around for a sandwich. I come across a music section, and stop there to look at the CDs. Then the place turns into a parking lot, and I'm being driven by my dad back to school. We come to a door that goes into the commons, and I tell my dad to let me off there.

Meaning- A dream that has you standing up for someone may show who you are inside; caring, thoughtful. Being in a grocery store may symbolize nourishment. Being out of money may be a warning: if you go crazy with money, you'll face consequences. Being interested in the CDs shows my interest in music.

Teaching and Beaching

This dream is from Wednesday night:
I'm in Ormond Beach, Florida with my family and my cousin and I are in a day camp that teaches people about recycling. We never actually get into that. All I really remember is feeling annoyed that I'm not spending more time at the beach. I also remember, on the last day of the camp we got our pictures and names on these stickers. I don't know what their purposes are. My sticker is a picture of me (a profile) standing upright and staring out an open window. The sticker itself is a purple-ish color. Towards the end of the whole day camp thing, I figure out I'm a singer and a pretty popular one. So me and a few other people put on a performance for the camp members and the parents. I do not sing very well. I'm wearing my June bug skating competition dress for a costume.

Meaning- The Ormond Beach idea is foreshadowing the visit I'll make with my family in July. The day camp concept could represent cooperation and friendship; the stickers could be an indicator to 'stick together.' And since my summer vacation started Tuesday, the beach could just be saying 'congratulations, welcome to your vacation,' or something. Performing and singing show that even though I'm not the best singer, I do like to put on a show now and then.
