Trying to sleep but I keep waking up because of some ridiculous dream that's scaring me (this last time, I dreamed that there were a couple snakes coiled up next to me while I was asleep, and the poisonous one teamed up with an outside buddy and slithered into my pillows/bedding).
UPDATE: I woke up about 7 more times last night because of ridiculous dreams. The last one I had a really hard time coming out of. I ended up sleeping for about 14 hours, and I didn't feel refreshed at all when I woke up. I'm okay now, but that was just ridiculous
Getting used to not being able to hear from you everyday again. I'll get through this, it'll just take time. Trying to get back into the groove of just focusing on myself again - progress.
As ridiculous as this sounds, myself and my other housemate reckon that theres something up with our place, but we're not sure exactly what. I live with seven other people, so as you can imagine, the house is very big. Right now, it's just the three of us, but recently it was just two as the third housemate just got back. We've had quite a few encounters before my other housemate returned; one night (must have been last week) the two of us were sat out in the kitchen at around 10, so at this point it was dark and we only had the big light on in the kitchen. The table we were sat at is opposite the door that leads out into the hallway, where there are two flights of stairs that run in opposite directions; both are visible from where we were sat as we always keep that door open. Funnily enough, we were chatting about watching a horror film (we ended up watching the Nun) just after arranging holiday plans. Out of no where, we heard a loud floor creek as if someone was at the foot of the doorway and we obviously both immediately looked left to see no one there, bearing in mind that this was at night and we were the only ones in the house. There is one possible explanation for this, the house is old and buildings do make sounds, but for the floor to creek like it did, it would have taken the pressure and weight of a person which completely baffled us both.
Another incident took place in my room. My desk faces the wall next to my window and when looking to my left is the door to my ensuite. My bathroom door remained open as I sat at my desk on my laptop, I don't exactly remember what time of night this was but it was relatively late. As I face my computer screen against the wall, I can still see the bathroom from the corner of my eye to the left. With the door open and my mind placed elsewhere, I just about saw my toilet roll fall from the top of the toilet basin next to the flush button and heard it hit the ground. I always keep my toilet paper there as its just easier to grab. At first, I didn't know what to think as it was possible that I might have left it too far on the edge of the system, but I hadn't been to the bathroom for quite some time so if that were the case then it would have fallen soon after going. It's happened twice, the other time was during the day but I only witnessed the toilet roll on the floor that time.
I do get paranoid at times, especially as a huge mirror sits opposite my bed. I'm afraid I might see something. At this point though, I am convinced that we are just overly thinking and it could just be nothing. But, I do now sleep with one eye open at night
If you’re going to ban words for not being inclusive enough, don’t expect any respect from me. I also don’t want to see any word get banned because of one minor context not everybody knows.
