Nipping to Australia

To visit someone in your dream, suggests that you need to reconnect with this person in your waking life. Perhaps you have been neglecting that relationship.

To dream that you are worried about something, is a reflection of waking worry that has carried over to your dream state. You may be harbouring some repressed thoughts, some unexpressed emotions, resentments or hostilities which are triggering your dream worry.



I needed to run some errands and dad offered to take me. The first one was in Australia and he drove me there in his taxi. I needed to go to my friend Will's house, but he had moved since I had last been in the country, so we needed to find the new house. As we were driving through the Melbourne countryside I was saying to dad "see, I told you Melbourne was beautiful!". I called Will to get directions to his new address and was growing increasingly frustrated at him because he wouldn't answer my question. All I required was the postcode of the new address to put it into the Sat-Nav but he kept talking about something entirely different each time and eventually my phone credit ran out. Me and dad had to park the cab and walk the streets, door knocking until we found the correct house.

We approached a property which had a tea set where the porch should have been. The idea was that guests could make themselves a cup of tea while they waited for the door to be answered. Knowing that Will's mum Liz liked her cups of tea, I knew it must be the right property. I made myself a cup but dad was too shy to accept one and Liz answered the door. She gave me a huge hug as she was really happy to see me and she invited the pair of us inside.
The interior of the house was awful, very retro and 80's. We walked into the living room and was introduced to their new dog called Wispa (after chocolate bar). In one corner of the living room was a huge hot tub and it looked really tacky. Then Will came into the room and grabbed me in a huge bear hug.
We were all sitting round drinking tea and catching up, when my dad reminded me we had to fly back to England. It suddenly dawned on me that I was not supposed to be in Australia, after receiving a 3 year ban and I was getting more and more worried about going to the airport in case they arrested me. Dad was trying to rationalise that it was their fault for allowing me entry into the country so they would let me back out again. But I was getting extremely emotional and the worry was making me sick.

24/01/2011 (no. 2) - Group holiday

To dream that you are on holiday, represents a need for a break or time for rest. You are expressing a wish to escape from your responsibilities. Depending on the activities related to the holiday, the dream may also indicate family issues, personal attitudes or some difficulty.



To see a shark in your dream, indicates feeling of anger, hostility and fierceness. You are undergoing a long and difficult emotional period and may be an emotional threat to yourself or others. Perhaps you are struggling with your individuality and independence, especially in some aspect of your relationship. Alternatively, a shark represents a person in your life who is greedy and unscrupulous. This person goes after what he or she wants with no regards to the well-being and sensitivity of others.

A big group of us were in LA on a holiday. I was walking along the beach alone when I saw Bocky (my tour leader from the Eastern Dreams trip I went on in Australia). Bocky, was in LA working as a lifeguard. He told me about a submarine which he was operating where people paid $60 and could view sharks. Ben didn't want to come with me so went off with Tom and his friends. I walked up to the harbour where the submarine left from and saw Carly Warner (a girl I was friends with in school). She was due to be coming on the sub with me but didn't want to pay the $60 so left me on my own. I saw Toni with Emma and Tracy and tried convincing them to come with me. We had just missed the ride, so had to wait for the next one. I went with Bocky to the beach to help him drag the submarine (by rope) up to the harbour for the next trip. He let me ride in the sub back up to the harbour and I had to wear a big helmet so I could breathe in the water. As I was floating upwards I saw huge sharks swimming all around, really close to the shore.

Me and Bocky then went for a walk around the island and I saw Ben with Tom and his friends sunbathing. I warned them all about not swimming in the sea as there were sharks close to the shore. I introduced Bocky to Ben and they shook hands and I remember feeling anxious of the 2 of them meeting.


24/01/2011 - Hanging out with Celebs

To dream that you are good friends with a celebrity, represents your idealized version of someone you know in your life. Perhaps you hope that a real-life friend can act more like a particular celebrity. Consider the qualities that you see in this celebrity and how you want your friends to have those qualities. Alternatively, the dream may be trying to compensate for your own lack of self-confidence. You want to escape from your own reality and live the high life. You want to fit in.




Me and a friend (although I don't know who the girl in the dream was) were randomly having a drink with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost (2 British Actors). We were not friends with them, but had met them, by chance, in a bar. We were getting along very well with them, especially me and Nick Frost. We were making each other laugh loads and having a really good time. As the night went on we all had to leave and promised that we would keep in touch and remain friends. As we were leaving, Simon Pegg suddenly thought to invite us to his birthday party on Thursday. Him and his friends were going to meet in his local pub at 3:30pm, that Thursday. I really wanted to go and was wondering if and how I was going to be able to get out of work that afternoon.


The girl I was with and I travelled home together and we were queuing outside the Royal Courts of Justice for a bus. The Courts had been turned into a disco and there were people outside queuing for entry, dressed up in short dresses and eating kebabs from a near-by kebab van.


It was then Thursday and I was at Simon Pegg's birthday party which was now being held at his house. I walked through the front door feeling extremely self conscious as I didn't know anyone there besides Nick Frost and obviously Simon Pegg. I was offered a saucepan full of hard boiled eggs as that was the finger food for the party, so I took an egg to eat. To my right were Simon's parents who were frightfully posh and in front of me across the room was Nick Frost. Simon was speaking with his parents and I called a joke across to Nick. All of a sudden, his dad turned on me, telling me how rude I was for talking over the top of him and then he started to shout and belittle me in front of the whole party. I was so embarrassed and mortified and rendered speechless. I went over to Nick and could feel the tears of embarrassment filling up in my eyes and Simon turned to have a go at his dad for what he did to me.
