Its weird- Do you ever Dream about Star Wars? :0
Hi Guys!!!!

This is quite a weird blog. but no wierder than any of my others. But its quite interesting to learn about how Star Wars Affects us


Last night I had a great dream that I felt lasted all eight hours I slept!

"it was about me being a Commander Appo and I was on the mission where I must asassinate all the Jedi. At one point I was doing great but soon I started to get really rubbish at aiming and couldn't seem to move.. Then after a while I could move but I found myself all the sudden trapped on a Planet like Rhen Var. I looked round to see that I was in the middle of a ruin and....in the middle of a rebel (yes rebel) Ambush"!

It was a great dream, and unfortuenatly thats all I can remember!

How can I explain this phenomenon (exuse speeling) of a dream. I've also noticed i've had a lot more of dreams that involve someway or another. my main question is
"How does star wars affect us"

Well...I think it affects us in all kinds of ways, both when we are awake and we control our thoughts and when we're asleep and our sub-consiousness takes over. When we are asleep are sub-consiousnes effects us in certains ways which sometimes influence us to do things that we dream of or desire to do, like sleep walking for instance. So this may explain why I dreamt of starwars and Commander Appo because of something that I have done or something I am going to do. We may also have nightmares involving star wars where we like Darth vader have turned to the dark side or have been robbed of our one true love (Padme). And also you might (just might) have a nightmare on evil Jawas. :0

During our day to day lifes Star Wars can also affect us. I would be lieing if I said I have never caught myself leaping round a room with a stick pretending i'm a jedi. Do you do this? But also during conversations we might occasionaly bring up Star Wars or compare somone or something something in Star wars. Next I can remember now and again bringing up lines and quotes from the star wars movies like

"execute order 66" Darth Sidious, ROTS
"so, this is how democracy ends....with a thunderous Applause" Senator Amidala, ROTS
and "May the force be with you"
Do you catch yourself saying quotes?

Since I totally became a SW nerd I have found myself playing 100% star wars games, joining up for Hyperspace, adding starwars.com, wookiepedia and lucas arts to my Favourite website list etc... is this normal? You also start to find yourself recognising people as someone who had played as a Sw character or you recognise your best friend is a SW lookalike.

I'm not sure how to conclude this. So i'm gonna let you.

What are your thoughts?

Have you ever Dreamed about Starwars?

Do you catch yourself doing weird things?

I do!
