Apocalyptic Visions

I had two disturbing dreams...

The first one was a week before Christmas, where I dreamt that I was in a city torn by multiple attacks of high tsunamis, meteors and boulders rising from a distance and forming a trajectory towards the buildings. I was there, struggling and stunned by the weird forces of nature. Everything was vivid: from the roads that I pass through, to the buildings that I enter, the elevations I climb to keep away from the great flood, the people whom I recognize. I see the road swiftly crashed by small meteors by 4 seconds interval as a meteor hit a jeepney filled with people - there were casualties. I remember running into a building as boulders hit it. I saw by the sea the huge hole where the boulders come from. Somehow I was convinced it was true, that people in my dream told me that I wasn't dreaming. I was looking for my family and friends, and assumed they were fine.

I told my officemates my first dream. We browsed the net and looked for interpretaions. One website said, "To dream of the apocalypse signifies an emotional and dramatic change taken place within. The dream may also indicate the end of one kind of lifestyle and the beginning of another."

The other one was after Christmas, where the most remarkable scene was that I see a row of people kneeling down and beheaded simultaneously. According to the interpretation, "To dream that you or someone else is being beheaded signifies poor judgment or a bad decision that you have made and regretted."

I do not know whether I should believe in these interpretations. But looking at it, they may be true. But still, I believe there is something more about those dreams.

I am anxious about the third that I haven't encountered yet, together with the next coming vividly disturbing dreams

Sarap Maging Musikero Kapag Pasko

Yeah, that's right. ^^

The things I miss during the Christmas season were the CPH days when we build the lantern and designing the facade. I even missed the parade this season.

But what I'm so happy about this time is enjoying Christmas as a musician. I only listen to Christmas carols before, but now I play them with a group. I remember 2 years ago I was only watching the PPO and the San Miguel Philharmonic Orchestra perform Christmas music, but last December 12, I performed with the SICCO. Dr. Dayrit was there, and he enjoyed it.

Last Saturday. December 22, we played with the Vox Angelicum in the Our Lady of Hope Parish (behind SM West) under Ms. April Sta. Maria. It took me only almost 1 hour of sleep preparing for the event. Pero naman, winner pa rin wahehe.

One thing is for sure: sarap ng Pasko sa musikero hehe.
