Dreams In My Youth

I bought a new journal yesterday after deciding that I don't want to reflect so much on previous entries in there, even though I got really bad about writing in it for the last year or so. They are scattered entries of maybe a handful over the last year and a half. It did however really chronicle the first half of 2009, but that's not what I feel really good about reading right now, so I bought a new one. Its funny because I started writing in that journal way back in 2005 when I came back from Mexico. The first entry was dated November 24, 2005 (the day after I came back) and the last entry was from June 16, 2010 (the day I talked to Virginia's parents to ask for their permission). The funny thing is that that journal isn't completely full either. It most certainly would be had I been writing in it as much as I intended. There are a lot and a lot of experiences that just aren't in there. Thankfully a lot of them exist on my computer or various social network sites.
But anyway, while reading through my last journal I remembered a couple of odd dreams I had and wrote down later. There were more in older journals but I couldn't find them. I just wanted to put them up here just because they are still interesting to me now, especially since they make sense to me now.

"I had an interesting dream. I was traveling through some small town and stopped at a school much like BYU Idaho and somehow/some reason I met a girl there. She was really cute and I really started to like her. I did think about my current gf, but also knew that this was better for some reason. I don't know. The details are fuzzy now but I honestly wonder what it means and more importantly I wonder who she was and if I'll ever find out? Because it seemed like one of "those kinds" of dreams."

(Going back to BYU Idaho was the furthest thing from my mind at this point, let alone seeing anyone else. Little did I know that both of these things would come true less than a year later).

"I wonder about a dream I had last night. I was going to Rexburg I think and Paula was with me, and I ran into Sarah and some girl I don't know. Sarah was excited to see me, but turned off by Paula and vice versa. It was a fun dream for a bit as the three of them seemed to compete for my attention. Then it was sad when I decided that I had to decide between them. I walked up to them standing around a table. Paula suddenly seemed against me choosing her, but more indifferent then anything. I wonder what does it mean? I certainly didn't make a decision in my dream, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't her."

(This also pre-dated things a long long while. I still hadn't decided to go to Rexburg, nor had I started to talk to Sarah at all either. That didn't happen until October or so. I do remember that not to long after I started talking to Virginia I identified and recognized her as that third girl. That's so weird to me.)
