It's kind of fun and interesting to look back and go over everything I've done in the past year. Sometimes I think I do and see so much that if I don't write them down, I totally forget about them and they all become one big blur.

I woke up early this morning dreaming of aliens disguised as human. The dream was so interesting, I went back to sleep to see if I could reenter it. I was able to reenter my alien dreamworld four times, and each time the new dream picked up where the old dream ended.

I was with a group of people, and somehow we were the only ones who could tell who the martians really were. We were trying to infiltrate the martian community in the dessert.

But then I woke up finally and couldn't get back to sleep. Damn!!! The dream hadn't ended yet, and I didn't find out why the martians were on the earth or why they were disguised as humans. It's like not being able to watch the end of a movie.
