Dream Guy
It’s been a long day for Riley and it wasn’t over yet, there’s still night school. Sure, it was only 4 hours, but the kids wore her out today. A 4 and 5-year-old and 6 months old can be a handful for anyone, especially a 16-year-old, but the agreement with her parents, in order to leave her school to help her cousins, Angel and Mike with their kids, was night school. Although she enjoyed being there, it was quite different that home, Riley had friends to hang out with, was able to walk to the movies, the store and could catch a bus to just about anywhere. Consequently, there’s just the little park down the end of the graveled road, making night school a highlight. Along with her was Mike, his sister-in-law, Deb, and her niece, Diane. Mike always drove and Riley stayed pretty quiet during the trips since Mike is really the only one she knows and although Diane’s her age, there’s not much common ground. Diane’s the partying type and more experienced with the opposite sex. Today, she decided to wear her favorite blue with a green tank top, pony-tail her mid back length brown hair, and put on a little make-up to enhance her brown eyes. She was feeling pretty good about it all when they got to class. Unfortunately, it didn’t last long. Unable to stop giggling at a picture drawn of the teacher on the chalkboard was her downfall, subsequently, he made her sit out the class in the hallway. On the way home there were plenty of jokes and even she

“We were headed outside but before I could get out of the classroom I got shoved into the closet. I...I never got to see the sun…..” She trailed off before bursting into tears. The teacher's eyes immediately filled with sympathy for Margo and a thought crossed her mind; however, she immediately dismissed it for it was completely bizarre.

“Such are the familiar dreams of falling from a height, of teeth falling out, of flying and of embarrassment of being naked” (Freud 69). These dreams that we experience, are believed to be representations of our desires or fears, according to Freudian ideology. Sigmund Freud also believed that there existed a structural model for our personalities that consisted of the id, ego, and superego. He held the idea that the id was an instinctual drive that relied upon the pleasure principle. Conversely, however outrageous the desire was, it was repressed by the superego. This superego functioned as a censor, which assisted us in undertaking socially acceptable behaviors, by repressing urges from the id. The ego acted upon the reality principle
She sits in a chair, a multicolor blanket wrapped around her shoulders. She digs through her beige backpack finding a utensil for her food. She scoops a bite into her mouth chewing up and down. She has her headphones in listening to music, while trying to pay attention to the teacher simultaneously. She chews slowly, taking steady bites of her food. She looks around the room and to the screen with her blue eyes. Occasionally looking down at her food to grab another bite. Her dirty blonde hair is parted down the center. Some over each of her shoulders. She gets up to the teacher and then looks at her phone as she walks away. She grabs a copy of the prep from a stack on an empty desk for the upcoming test. She walks over to the computer cart
“Haylee," Ms.Glover warned nervously, "See me after class please." She said. I was distraught. At this point in my second grade career, I had never gotten in trouble like this before! Only bad kids got called to the teacher’s desk and in second grade, and I was most definitely not a bad kid. I remember naively wondering if maybe I, Haylee Feist, was becoming a bad kid, and that, was altogether life changing. Little did I know the teacher did have a plausible reason for her actions.

Most of us have experienced a dream, be it a nightmare or a pleasant walk in a forest. It was frequently believed that dreams encompass a coded message that might be expressing our hidden wishes, things that happened in the past or even predict the future. In the past, there have been many attempts to unravel the secret hidden behind the dreams and so far the world came up with three main theories of interpreting the dreams (Freudian, Jungian and Cognitive)(Wade, Travis 1998). In this essay I will attempt to analyze my dream by using each of the theories mentioned above, then compare the outcomes as well as their possible connections to my life and in the end determine, which one of these theories is the most accurate and thus as a laic
Rena blankly stared out the window adjacent to her desk. The sky was a bright tint of light blue, and the clouds were ripped up cotton balls. Rena was the first to arrive in her class, and she was assigned a seat in the back. She settled into her homeroom class, by placing her bookbag on the desk’s hook. Her eyes wandered the neatly decorated classroom, taking note of the pictures and figurines of cats lying around.

Dreams, we all have them at one time or another, and in one form or another. They can be daydreams, when we're awake, wishing and hoping for something more (bigger and better) than we already have, or the way we hope things should and would be. Next there is the wish, this is when there is a strong desire for a specific thing, a longing for one particular thing. Then there is the nightmare. They are the dreams that are very disturbing, full of fear and horror. They are often a very scary event played out while one is asleep, although we do not know we are asleep. "Dreams are a sequence of images etc. passing through a sleeping persons mind" (Webster's 182). Because dreams are often complex and very vivid, many
Alexis tastes the salty breeze around her as she begins to open her eyes, but all she can feel is her eyes drooping back down. She tries to pull up her fluffy pink blanket, that she received on her birthday the previous week before. There is nothing there when she reaches for it. Alexis rubs her eyes and repeatedly blinks, she sees water. Wide awake now, she stands up and gasps. In front of her is the crystal clear, coral blue ocean. Immediately her jaw drops she is in shock, she has no clue where she is or how she got there. Bright green palm trees and the baby blue sky surrounds her. She brushes off the sticky sand on her pale legs and arms. The first thing that comes to her mind is if she is in another lucid dream. She reacts by pinching herself continuously. Nothing.
The American Dream is different for everyone, though it is most commonly associated with success, freedom, and happiness. The concept of the American Dream seems to have dwindled from where it was in the past few generations. It has gone from success, freedom, and happiness to having lots of money and the nicest possessions. In today society we all hope and strive for this dream, but how many actually achieve the American Dream? Is it a reasonable goal that Americans should strive for, or is it a myth that only leads to self-destruction? Having a lot of money, a good job, and expensive possessions are all characteristics of this American Dream. Even though, many
I don’t quite remember when she first appeared, but I do remember that she kept appearing. She had golden hair, pale skin, and a slim build. Her eyes were a bright blue, almost as if they were pearls at the bottom of a lake, shimmering and ethereal. She wore a white dress complemented by the white heels upon her feet. She stood across from me. Both of our feet were planted on a wide, flat blue landscape. Stars lined the dark blue sky and fireflies buzzed all around us. Overhead, a single dove flew through the sky, feathers gently falling to the earth as it made its way around the dark sky. The girl and I locked eyes. I took a step forward. The water rippled underneath my foot. Without taking another step, I reached out my hand. The girl reached out hers. Just then, my dream ended.
