so one of my classes is called "psychoanalysis & character ethics" and we have launched in with freud's the interpretation of dreams. one of the things we're supposed to do for the class is to keep a "dream book" where we record dreams that we have. sounds great, right? like an assignment to sleep.
well, its causing me this weird anxiety...like even if i go to sleep, there's something i'm "supposed to be doing." sheesh. but the other thing is that i actually very rarely remember my dreams. i like to think of myself as a sound sleeper. greg is the one with the crazy dreams.
so i've started sleeping with a notebook next to my bed & hoping that being startled awake by my phone alarm will spur on the memory of dreams. last night, it seems to have. but! i slurringly wrote out the dream and went back to snooze for a while. i've just gone back to look at what i wrote (because i actually don't remember the dream) & i can't decipher my sleepy handwriting. oh dear.
is there something i can eat to make me remember my dreams?
