15 interesting facts about dreams
1. You Forget 90% of Your Dreams
Within 5 minutes of waking, half of your dream is forgotten. Within 10, 90% is gone.
2. Blind People also Dream
People who became blind after birth can see images in their dreams. People who are born blind do not see any images, but have dreams equally vivid involving their other senses of sound, smell, touch and emotion.
3. Everybody Dreams
Every human being dreams (except in cases of extreme psychological disorder). If you think, you are not dreaming, you just forget your dreams.
4. In Our Dreams We Only See Faces, That We already Know
Our mind is not inventing faces – in our dreams we see real faces of real people that we have seen during our life but may not know or remember. We have all seen hundreds of thousands of faces throughout our lives, so we have an endless supply of characters for our brain to utilize during our dreams.
5. Not Everybody Dreams in Color
A full 12% of sighted people dream exclusively in black and white. The remaining number dream in full color. Studies from 1915 through to the 1950s maintained that the majority of dreams were in black and white, but these results began to change in the 1960s. Today, only 4.4% of the dreams of under-25 year-olds are in black and white. Recent research has suggested that those changing results may be linked to the switch from black-and-white film and TV to color media.
6. Dreams are Symbolic
If you dream about some particular subject it is not often that the dream is about that. Dreams speak in a deeply symbolic language. Whatever symbol your dream picks on it is most unlikely to be a symbol for itself.
7. Emotions
The most common emotion experienced in dreams is anxiety. Negative emotions are more common than positive ones.
8. You can have four to seven dreams in one night.
On average, you can dream anywhere from one or two hours every night.
9. Animals Dream Too
Studies have been done on many different animals, and they all show the same brain waves during dreaming sleep as humans. Watch a dog sleeping sometime. The paws move like they are running and they make yipping sounds as if they are chasing something in a dream.
10. Body Paralysis
Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is a normal stage of sleep characterized by rapid movements of the eyes. REM sleep in adult humans typically occupies 20-25% of total sleep, about 90-120 minutes of a night’s sleep.
During REM sleep the body is paralyzed by a mechanism in the brain in order to prevent the movements which occur in the dream from causing the physical body to move. However, it is possible for this mechanism to be triggered before, during, or after normal sleep while the brain awakens.
11. Dream Incorporation
Our mind interprets the external stimuli that our senses are bombarded with when we are asleep and make them a part of our dreams. This means that sometimes, in our dreams, we hear a sound from reality and incorporate it in a way. For example you may be dreaming that you are in a concert, while your brother is playing a guitar during your sleep.
12. Men and Women Dream Differently
Men tend to dream more about other men. Around 70% of the characters in a man’s dream are other men. On the other hand, a woman’s dream contains almost an equal number of men and women. Aside from that, men generally have more aggressive emotions in their dreams than the female lot.
13. Precognitive Dreams
Results of several surveys across large population sets indicate that between 18% and 38% of people have experienced at least one precognitive dream and 70% have experienced déjà vu. The percentage of persons that believe precognitive dreaming is possible is even higher, ranging from 63% to 98%.
*Precognition, also called future sight, refers to perception that involves the acquisition of future information that cannot be deduced from presently available and normally acquired sense-based information.
14. If you are snoring, then you cannot be dreaming.
This fact is repeated all over the Internet, but I’m a bit suspicious whether it’s really true as I haven’t found any scientific evidence to support it.
15.You can experience an o r g asm in your dream
You can not only have s e x as pleasurable as in your real life while dreaming, but also experience an o r g a s m as strong as a real one, without any wet results. The sensations felt while lucid dreaming (touch, pleasure and etc..) can be as pleasurable and strong (or I believe even stronger) as the sensations experienced in the real world.
Well, I hope you had a great time reading these strange facts about our dreams. Good night and sweet dreams!
(I’m going to my bed to check those facts once again.)

APRIL, Pass by fast.
Alright, So.
Hey there, i noticed you're not sitting next to me anymore. You did not tell me why you're not sitting next to me. Georgia told me you moved because you could not see clearly from the back. I do recall you mentioning about your vision problem from before but you did not even bothered to say something. I am very much confused and really disturbed. Apart from the movement of places, which i think is okay. I do want to know why you have been behaving really subtle in front of me for this whole week so far. You do not look me in the eye anymore when we talk and we cannot have conversations anymore, apart from a few sentences and a fake laugh here and there. You are very much reserved nowadays and i am concerned for you. I have a feeling you won't be joining us for tennis anymore or to chill out and watch movies during holidays or weekends. How long will you be keeping this up for? I cannot focus in school and i get really sad halfway through class whenever my wandering eyes fixes upon you. I stare at the window and get lost in deep thoughts. Reflecting upon the week before and questioning myself, Where did i go wrong in our friendship? Was it something i did? Was it something i said? Please do enlighten me for i do not want this to persist for the 3 years in our Institute. Lift the burden and take away my troubles, Speak to me. For now i am going to give you some space and i hope you use this time to make your decision on wether we can still be friends. Don't change. I prefered you the way you were before. Please do reply.
-Very concerned friend.

NGAYONG 2010
Every night I have dreams of foregone times, times that have only lead me crimes and when I look back all I see is black some kind of attack, then I realise all those times spent with you were wack, I should of been with the boys on the track, they were right when they were telling me to be slack, now i'm going to go back to the way things were like the time before I ever met you and you know what I refer to, I'm going to start to accrue things I never though I'd do, who ever knew you and everything you said was untrue, you don't understand the pain you have put me through and you got no idea what i'm going to do to you, this shits overdue, who ever knew this is what you could do, this doesnt even construe, but I know everything I'm thinking is true, now look what you have turned me to.
Every Night i Have Nightmares Of The Worst Things , The Pain You Caused Has Made Me Pause in My Own Tracks, i knew i should of walked out , as i shout out to god nobodys there to hold me up as im falling only the devil was there calling out murder turning a blind eye to this love and only dark clouds above walls so high no lie will be able to enter again
