I dreamed of snakes last night. It was really really freaky!
In the dream, our family went to this small town in this country to visit this family whom we have been supporting. This country is known for having snakes everywhere, by that I mean everywhere like in your bathroom and on your rooftop. I was totally terrified about going there! because I am scared of snakes! especially small ones!
I remember clearly that I was complaining and whining about having to go, but bearing in mind that the family was very important to us, and they were waiting for our arrival, I went ahead unwillingly.
We had to walk up this long long flight of stairs before reaching the house. The place was rundown but in an organized manner. Oh before reaching the flight of stairs, we saw a lot of snakes elsewhere, on the streets or something. Fortunately, we didn't see any on the stairs, but we saw snake bones! Outside this house that had its door facing the stairs. I was terrified even at first sight of the bones! I was wondering why the hell were there bones there!
Fortunately when we reached the house which was at the top, there was no snake in sight, and the house looked neat and clean. Then I asked about the bones that we saw on the way. They explained that the man who stays in the house (we saw him entering the house on our way up) caught the snakes, cooked them and ate them, leaving the bones behind. And they explained explicitly how the snakes were cooked and skinned leaving this clear picture in my mind even until now!!! The big pot used to cook the snakes and the bones! Apparently eating snakes is a norm in that country, wherever it is.
Well, thats all I remember from that dream. The thing is I am really scared of snakes! especially small ones which are the type that appeared in my dream!
I am determined to sleep only when I feel tired. I don't want another dream!
