Recording My Dreams

Last November, I suddenly came up with a weird idea--recording my dream whenever I have one.  Then I bought a very fine notebook with Monet's painting on the cover.  Oh my Monet, forgive me.... ^_^

So far I have some thirty pieces on my dreams, in the form of words, or combo of words and images.  Sometimes when I felt it's impossible to render the fabrics of dreams into actual words, I just scribbled on paper, like an idiot daubster. 

Today I flipped my lovely Monet notebook with "great interest" for half an hour.  Hereby I concluded as follows:
(1) My dreams are in very real settings, but with tons of nonsense.
(2) My dreams sometimes bear highly twisted plots.
(3) Many people appearing in my dreams are unclear about their identities.  I remembered them by their names, but not faces.  But they rarely told me their names.
(4) My dreams have much better structure than Inception or Mulholland Dr.  HAHAHA!!!!!

Reviewing dreams is really fantastic and magical experience.  But I 100% reject all kinds of theories--psychoanalysis, mysticism, symbolism, literary critisism, post-modernism, and other whatsoever-sm--to intrude my intuitive appreciation and interpretation of my dreams. 

When I fill all pages of my Monet notebook, I gonna have a longer report to you here.  That'll be probably next year or so.
