Thursday, April 23, 2009: Explanations and Dreams

Okay, time to explain a few things. First, the explanation of the name "Cranial Leakage." I love this phrase. What it means is that sometimes ideas are leaking out of my brain, and they end up here. This is pretty much just the free-flowing content of my mind. Hence the name, "Cranial Leakage." If you'd like, you can click here to watch one of my YouTube videos that explains in video form the concept of "cranial leakage."

Then, there's the bit I'll be including at the end of every blog. The things I like/dislike is just in an effort to find something worthwhile in every day, and hope that for me, it outweighs the thing I dislike. An experiment in optimism, really. The song addiction of the day is just my attempt to spread some fun music that I like. I'm also attempting to give up, or at least minimize, my intake of caffeine, so that's the final bit. I'm actually going to change the phrasing a bit to make it more clear.

I'd like to talk about dreams. I've noticed that the types of dreams I have seem to change with age. When I was a kid, I had mostly crazy, whacked-out psycho crack fantasy dreams. When I hit puberty, I began to have the sex dreams. Now that I'm 19, past the threshold of adolescent hormones, I have fulfilling relationship dreams. At the moment, the dreams are about my current Internet crush, but I've often heard that the importance of dreams is what's happening, not who's involved in what's happening. I like having these dreams, because they make me optimistic for the future. I have to admit, though, the initial few seconds when I wake up from them kind of sucks. But I am glad that's what's important to my subconscious is a genuine relationship, and not something more vapid.

See you tomorrow!

Thing I like about the past 24 hours: Being silly at Wal-Mart. There's something very, very therapeutic about it.
Thing I dislike about the past 24 hours: Being hungry this morning and not getting food until 11 at least.
Song addiction of the day: "Time Only Knows," from the ending of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time.
Number of caffeinated beverages in the past 24 hours: 0.
