"Empty days"

[Paulina]

I'm having "empty days".

Recently my daydreams were focused on Prince Harry, especially when somebody on tv called him new "Number 1 Bachelor". These daydreams were funny and kind of stupid because of two reasons: firstly it took only ONE sentence to start my daydreaming and secondly I don't even find Prince Harry attractive. And probably because of these two reasons these daydreams ended very fast. And this is the thing - they ended too fast.

Normally I start new daydream when I meet new "trigger". In this case one daydream ended suddenly and I'm left with nothing to daydream about. This may sound as a some kind of relief - I can clear my mind, focus on another things I have to do.

But the truth is I hate these "empty days". I'm used to daydreaming. Daydreams define my life, they make my life. So I spent most of the day seeking for a new trigger. I watched a tv show I enjoy very much and used to daydream about. I listened to some of my fav songs, which always made me daydream about something. I was even forcing my self to daydreaming or to reconsrtuct some old daydreams, because I simply didn't know what to do with myself.

Happily today I'm meeting a dentist (and I'm really afraid of dentists) and I'm sure that the day will be full of visualizations of this scary visit.

Haha, this is a funny story with Harry ;) As I said somebody called him "Number 1 Bachelor" but then I saw this movie about him, telling how kind he is, and how much he cares about poor people and so on and that moved me very much ;)

In my head is a personal library of daydreams my normal pattern is go over the same storyline with changes in my character or the action depending on my mood and what I want to feel.  When I wear one out and become board with it , I move to another different story line.  I have done this as long as I can remenber so it isan't related to my age and having a backlog of stories.  My favorites environments are pulled from cartoons, animie, science fiction stories (usually tv or movies).  I rewrite it to correct the faults I see in it or to change the characters and add in my own characters.  I have several animie, manga that I follow but I do not daydream about them.  For the last few years I have been stuck with the daydreams I have outlined for novels but I haven't been writing it down.  I think that may be the problem, but so much has happened in my life that I have gotten away from the actual physical writing stuff down so that other people may understand it, which falls into the catagory of work.

I don't know, if this helps, but I've been also going through "empty days" stage since April 18th. A beautiful dream was killed - that Mr Roger Waters is a kind of a holy ghost, not breathing, not eating, only thinking, visualizing and sometimes performing ... and sometimes talking to me. But the show was excellent.

 

I started thinking  that probably our brain just seeks some work, not necesserily a day-dream. But as we got used to day-dreaming, we interpret it this way. I don't know. One of my sister's friends is a fan of puzzle. When she got to the hospital, she got bored, had impression, she's getting stupid and asked for puzzle. Not for a book or music, as all others asked. For her, the brain activity was about puzzle.

 

Last but not least. The son of princess Caroline of Monaco is definitely more attractive :) But I'm more after geeks and thinkers.
