2010 Birthday Mae Sae to Leaving Asia

The most northern point in Thailand

Dream - 5th May 2010 - Day before my birthday

I was in M's lounge at the house I lived in as a teenager. There was a musical band living there, kind of a rock band. One of the members was called Annie Crumble, and was named after an apple crumble. Outside in the garden, there was a disused and stationary train and this is where they each slept, each band member having their own carriage.

Then I was in Loi Kroh in Chiang Mai waiting to cross the road to the soi where I lived. There were a number of cars going past and I waited impatiently, watching each one past. The last one slowed slightly but I somehow knew that if they all went past it would all be OK somehow. I llooked and the car before the last had stopped because of a jam, but the last car behind it managed to avoid it and keep going.

I carried on and crossed the road. I wanted to buy a bottle of water and so asked at a shop at the soi entrance. She only had a little bottle so I decided to get a big bottle at home in the hostel.

Interpretation

This is again concern about how much I drank in the past. The train in M's house is me going off the tracks and laying the foundation for later heavy drinking.

Then we go to the present. The cars going past are the years I drank... jamming up. Going on, I don't want a small bottle of water but carry on wanting the larger one, meaning I stay teetotal for longlivity; I choose life, basically.

Note: interesting to see water being used as a symbol for life itself.

Dream - 6 May 2010 (kind of) birthday

I was thinking about going to McCormick hospital for tests [I was awake and thinking this], and while thinking I suddenly remembered that I went and they wanted to do tests that would take three weeks and I only had two weeks (How long I was planning to stay in Chiang Mai at the time).

Interpretation

I was going to apply for a passport round the corner at the consul also, so it could have been about that. I can't really say as I never went to that hospital in the end, so perhaps it's how it would have turned out if I had?

Dream - 12th May 2010

I was in a hospital at night that kept getting darker and darker. Just before it went pitch black I found a single room and lay down on a bed in the dark, just before the last light disappeared. Then a nurse came in and turned the light on and said she was here to help with my back. I felt uncomfortable as she approached me with a cold cloth, but then she rubbed it on my back and I felt much better.

Interpretation

This was a day or so before I phoned the hospital, having worried myself sick about my health for the previous few weeks. They had an English speaking liasion officer, who took charge of me, was ultra compassionate and basically... was as the nurse in the dream. So, I think we'll say this one was prophetic.
