Have You Ever Had A Dream? Dr.

Unconscious sexual drives are the most powerful behaviours of mankind. Libido, colloquially known as sex drive, drastically affects one’s thoughts and actions and leads to abnormal behavioural consequences. Guy de Maupassant’s “Was It a Dream?” is about a man who spends all his spare time mourning over his lover’s grave. The story reveals the adverse psychological relationship to sexuality, as the man’s actions are molded by his affection towards his lover. Hence, sexual drives lead to an unconscious mind and results in displacement of love as it is a powerful and pleasurable tool that all human beings desire.

Having a dream and living with passion is very important because I believe living without passion is like being dead. Someone like Tony Hawk could agree. Tony Hawk has been a professional skateboarder for over 24 years. However, he did not receive that title overnight; Tony got his first skateboard when he was only 9 years old. Since then, Tony worked extremely hard and put a lot of his focus on skateboarding. He did it because that was his Dream. Tony’s Dream was frowned upon by many of his teachers and adults alike. One of his teachers even told him that he “would never make it in the workplace if he didn’t follow directions exactly” (Hawk), but he never gave up his Dream. He kept working hard and eventually became a pro at the young age of 15.

For many centuries, people would think of dreaming as curses or blessings that we can not fend off or operate. Lucid dreaming, a dream in which a dreamer is aware that he or she is dreaming; they may be able to control the dream by exert amount. In this dream stage, we perform superhuman features that would be impossible when we’re awake. While a person dreams, these wonderful things become a temporality reality. Researchers says that a average person dreams four to six times a night(insert). Many people dream every night without even realizing that their dreams can be controlled. Others might not give too much care about the dreams that they might experienced. Lucid dreaming can turn scary dreams into happy dreams, or happy dreams into more relaxed ones. This method of dreaming can provide the dreamer endless ways to control their subconscious which can provide enjoyable experiences.

One woman that made a major contribution to the field of science was Mae C. Jemison. Jemison was born in Decatur, Alabama on October 17th, 1956. Her parents were just average people, her father was a carpenter and her mother an elementary school

In Mae’s early life she was already interested in the aspect of science she knew she wanted to do something in that field. Although when she told her parents and peers this, they discouraged her. Although they didn’t encourage her because women equality and racism were still a little heavy, she persevered. She studied up on different type fields of science in the library, but most times on astrology. She had a dream to be an astronaut, and no one was going to stop her. At the age of sixteen she attended stanford university and got her bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering and African

Mae Jemison was the first African-American woman to become an astronaut. She was the first African-American woman in space. I guess you can say she is pretty out-of-this-world. In my essay, I will provide background information on Mae Jemison, her accomplishments, as well as why I think she is out-of-this-world, ambitious, and successful.

Jemison was born in Alabama, when she was three her family moved to Chicago, Illinois for better educational opportunities. A year later after being accepted into the training program, Jemison became astronaut and was titled science mission specialist. Her job was to be responsible for the conducting the scientific experiments crew on the space shuttle. She spent about 190 hours in space after returning September 20 to Earth. Jenson was put into the National Women’s Hall of Fame, as well awarded Gamma Sigma Gamma Women of the Year in 1990. The “Notable Women Scientists” writes, “After leaving the astronaut corps in March of 1993, Jemison accepted a teaching fellowship at Dartmouth and established the Jemison Group, a company that researched, developed, and marketed advanced technologies” (1). By stating this, it proves that Jemison is another African American making a difference out in the world. Thanks to her we have better technology to help astronauts out in space, and better equipment for them as

Mae Carol Jemison was born on October 17th 1956 in Decatur, Alabama, she was the youngest of three children. As Mae Jemison started to grow up, she remained strong on reaching her goals. She received inspiration from people like her mom, dad, and even Martin Luther King Jr. From a young age she was interested in space travel. She later entered Stanford University on a National Achievement Scholarship. Jemison pursued a double major at Stanford, and in 1977 she received a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering and in African and Afro-American studies. Upon graduation, she entered Cornell University Medical College to work toward a medical degree.

I am taking some classes that will eventually qualify me to major in Astro - Physics, or Chemical engineering, I also want to work with NASA and train as an astronaut. It was amazing to know that Dr. Mae C. Jemison who happens to be the youngest of three children born to a middle class African American family, Charlie Jemison, a maintenance worker and his wife, Dorothy, a teacher. Dr. Mae C. Jemison was the first black woman

Mae C. Jemison was the first African-American female to go into outer space. Ever since she was a little girl she wanted to be an astronaut and on September 12, 1992, her dream came true. After being in the astronaut training program for over a year, she earned the title of science mission specialist. She was the person that conducted scientific experiments on the shuttle she was on, the Endeavour. She had six other astronauts with her on the shuttle on mission STS47 and conducted experiments on motion sickness and weightlessness on them and herself. She spent eight days in space and returned home on September 20, 1992.

It was the coolest thing around. I idolized the astronauts, but I never thought really seriously about becoming one.” (HBR). As a youth she was competitive in sports and even considered becoming a professional tennis player when she first started college in 1968, but ultimately decided against it (Grady). She started at Stanford studying physics in 1970, and was planning on going on to to become a physicist and teach as a professor (which she eventually did, after having retired from NASA).

Thesis Statement: Dreams are successions of images, emotions, and sensations that occur subconsciously during sleep.

Dreams come in all shapes and forms. Every dream experience falls into one of the following categories: Prophetic Dreams, Release Dreams, Wish Dreams, Informative and Problem solving dreams, and Astral Visits. So many people take dreams for granted or think they do not mean anything, but they do. Dreams are incredible when you learn what they are, mean and why we dream at all.

In the novel, Waiting for the Barbarians by J.M Coetzee, the magistrate’s progressive, non-linear dreams are a parallel to his growing involvement with the barbarians and his growing distaste for the empire. The great psychoanalyst, Sigmund Freud said, “The interpretation of dreams is the royal road to a knowledge of the unconscious.” In every dream there is a hidden meaning and when the reader starts analyzing the magistrate’s dreams he reveals that he is oddly attracted to the barbarians and knows he should not get involved and it will be a trial to get close to them.

I jolted awake in fear. I had a dream. A weird dream. A vivid dream. It was full of people shouting and bright flashes of light. It was confusing yet clear, like some part of me understood it. I didn’t know it would be important then but now I know. How? Well, it happened like this…
