Surreal

[QueenAdrock]

Ever have those surreal feelings, like shit isn't real? Like things are completely different and you don't know how to contemplate a lot of what's going on?

Yeah. My parents moved on Sunday. So 6 hours away by car if I want to see them for holidays. I've never been away from them, really. Plus, I had my diploma mailed to me by University of Maryland. It arrived today. Seeing my name and "Bachelor of Arts: History" under it is still really weird for me. Getting my 4 year degree is just kinda...well, surreal.

How about youse bitches?

I'm not kidding, but drinking very cold water is really surreal to me. I mean, the feeling I get after I had drunk it, it's hard to explain.:eek:

Sometimes 10 seconds after saying something i wonder to myself "Did i just say that, or did i think that?". Totally irrelevent, but yeah.

Sometimes if I'm depressed, I think about life too much and become aware of my mortality and keep having fucked up dreams of people I love dieing, and become aware of how fast time goes bye and that I keep gettin older and I could die at any time, I hate it. That was a long ass sentence.

my life for the past three weeks has felt completely surreal.

and once I wrote that, I got a serious case of de ja vu.

Peter Sutcliffe?

hehe.

i don't know what to do, should i change my number?

[Ace42X]

Some mobiles can block unwanted numbers. Could get a new handset. Alternatively, contact the police - they have the authority to deal with nuissance callers if you have told them to leave you alone.

[zorra_chiflada]

it's this crazy alcoholic guy who i used to be friends with. i might just have to block the number. fuuuck.

I've gone through time in hazy, sort of dreamy ways where I'm much more prone to a class of thoughts that are usually fleeting/unpredictable for me. There's often a sense of deja-vu to that. Usually those things happen to me when I'm distracted or stressed or overwhelmed. I have vague theories about it and always want to explore that when the weirdness/surreal stuff happens, but I am often too drained to do it systematically. But maybe it's the mind-body protecting aspects of itself, I've thought. Maybe the surreal times happen when your body lets its guard down--when it normally diverts energy away from the mind's ability to understand itself and that diversion fails to an extent and some of the realization starts to happen, some tiny aspects of it are slightly more evident, just out of reach. The rub is that you're is too wiped physically or mentally to put it together in any sort of logical way.

Random thoughts, very rough theories.

Life is fucking surreal!

my whole life seems surreal. it doesn't help that my dreams are very vivid, which make it hard to distinguish them from reality. last night, I had a very involved and semi-realistic dream about Nathan and his girlfriend getting married, and my mom and I going to the wedding. People were asking, "bride's side or groom's side" and I'd say "groom's side" and they'd be like, "oh, isn't this just lovely?" and I'd say, "I guess" all somber. then they'd say, "what's the matter?" and my mom would say, "oh nothing, she's just not feeling well". then cordo would tell me I should go home and I would just sit there and pout and say, "I guess this means it's really over".

so then this morning, I felt relieved that they didn't actually get married, but also kind of like I mourned the loss of him in my dream...so I'm ready to let go or at least loosen my grip. haha :(
