What do your dreams mean?

What do my dreams say about who I am?

As we end the winter term we begin to work on our Final Presentations. Normally we would be giving a talking and more one on one presentation but this term is different. Because of what is going on in the world today, there is risk for our community. Instead of showing our Final Presentations at our school and open to the public, we will create blog posts about them. With the posts being a bit more public than showing it to families and fellow students that creates an opportunity to make our work more wide spread. For these final presentation we have been tasked with creating or using a guiding question based off of a certain class that we are showcasing. My final presentation is about dreams. One exercise that the other freshman and I worked on was sharing our dreams. This assignment was supposed to have us learn to interpret our dreams and understand them. We could use this analysis to think about other dreams that we had. This exercise can be done by you and a partner. Each of you can share a dream and whatever parts of it as you like and the dream partner will ask questions about your dream afterward. If you want to try it yourself there are directions below.

Guidelines for Sharing Your Dreams
-- Choose someone you trust to share your dream with and someone who trusts you to share their dream with you. 
-- Choose a dream you are comfortable with sharing.
-- Try not to ask questions that are too personal for the dreamer if they haven’t shared something about it already. 
-- If the dreamer does not want to share something do not pressure them to say it.
-- Do not tell the dreamer what their dream is about. Only say what it would mean to you in your dream.
-- Dreams that are shared should not be told to outsiders without the dreamer’s permission.

Use these questions to explore and interpret your dream.
-- If this dream had a title, what would it be?
-- How did this dream make you feel? What emotions do you associate with this dream?
-- What questions would you ask the dream, if any?
-- If you could go back into your dream and do something differently, what would you do?
-- Does this dream inspire any action in the conscious world? What do you feel like you need to do because of this dream?
-- What was the lesson you learned from the dream?

I have done this exercise and answered these questions which are below. 

-- If this dream had a title, what would it be?
Airplane Trap
-- How did this dream make you feel? What emotions do you associate with this dream?
This dream made me feel sad and alone.
-- What questions would you ask the dream, if any?
What does this dream mean? What do my actions represent?
-- If you could go back into your dream and do something differently, what would you do?
I would have tried harder to rescue the people that were dying and also try to get help from the other people that could help out.
-- Does this dream inspire any action in the conscious world? What do you feel like you need to do because of this dream?
I feel like I need to always help others if they are in danger when I can. If I have the chance to help or save people I should always do it.
-- What was the lesson you learned from the dream?
Always try to help the ones who cannot help themselves.

United States Refugees: What must they go through?

Welcome back to my blog. This post is for the workshop class, The War on X. The War on X is a new elective class at GCE this Fall term that focuses on current events that their own small battles and large levels of importance. Some topics that were up for discussion were the War on Afghanistan, the War on Immigration, and Critical Race Theory. For this first unit the majority of the class decided to talk about the War on Immigration. More specifically we focused on the United States-Mexico border and the situation there. We looked into the history of a border and eventually wall being at the border in the first place and moved on to examine more recent events from the presidency of Donald Trump. We also looked at the entry process for immigrants, asylum seekers, and refugees to enter the United States. In this small Action Project we were asked to choose one of the three groups trying to enter the US and look at their entrance process further. I chose to study refugees more because the...

How To Make A Dreamcatcher

This is the second and final Action Project in the units of the Who Am I class in the Humanities Course. This unit was called Doubt and Dream. For a decent amount of this unit we talked a lot about our dreams and what they mean. We talked more about philosophy and psychology like Continental Rationalists or British Empiricists and the Freudian analysis. There were a few Field Experiences that we embarked on such as the Continuum Center, The Art Institute, and also Cheetah Gym where we learned about the philosophy of jujitsu. This final action project was about making a dreamcatcher and explaining what it symbolizes and what it means to us. Everyone's dreamcatcher was different because it is made to represent you and everyone is different. The materials we used for the dreamcatchers were lace, string, wires, and beads. My dreamcatcher and everything about it is below. GHS, 2020 The center of my dream catcher symbolizes remembrance and acceptance of death. We all know that we...

Snapshots of Memories

For Final Presentations this term I am presenting the GCE Minecraft server. The GCE Minecraft server is a multiplayer world on Minecraft where me and a fellow freshman have built GCE. Since we were not able to conclude our school year at GCE and it being the last year at the current location, we decided to make a replica in Minecraft. During the terms pre-apocalypse a few GCE students took interest in creating multiplayer Minecraft worlds like surviving as a group to beat the game and even building a massive city. As we moved through the weeks after GCE closed its doors the students continued to play and collaborate with each other. One of these students came up with the idea of building GCE. I agreed to do it because I have a passion for Minecraft and have become an architect on it just like the creators that I take inspiration from. When there is something you enjoy, do more of it. So, in the mindset of the Final Presentations for this term and having a little bit of fun we sta...
