2 Dreams Last Night (Soccer & Neighborhood)
I had dream about being a manager of a soccer team. We were losing 3 to 0 in the first half and I had to give some sort of pep talk to get the team hype for the second half. Sometimes the game would be indoors in like a dark, small room or it would be in a large stadium. Back on the field the game started up and we had a breakaway and took a shot on goal. The goalie caught the ball but rolled it out too quickly/not thinking and rolled it to our forward instead. He then took a shot and ended up scoring but the goalie didn’t even try to defend it (he and a defender just stood literally inside the goal). We all cheered and I told the team we’d be taking a cruise to celebrate if they kept it up.
I would write the scores down on a whiteboard and add how they scored. I was nervous to write stuff down right by the coach though cause I forgot to put on deodorant and was afraid I’d stink up the indoor field lmao. Anyway, as I was writing down how each play was the coach would keep interrupting and making sure I was doing it right as we wanted to make insurance claims if any of the players got hurt. By the end I think we ended up winning (?) and I had to give another pep talk about going on a free cruise. But on the cruise the team would act as tour guides, hence why it was free. I remember talking to one guy and the other manager and the one player looked like Antoine Griezmann and was listening so intently. The cruise conversation happened in the same place as the indoor field, but in a different section that acted as a dingy dive bar where you could see little particles in the air. At one point me and the other manager told the bartender to open a window for a cross breeze or something bc we could literally see how still and stuffy the air was. This made us all laugh and then the dream transitioned into the next:
I was prepping for a last of us type scenario and running around a neighborhood that’s becoming a recurring dream world now. It’s a tight neighborhood with large gorgeous houses and trees everywhere in the center, with brick sidewalks and just barely enough room between the trees for the sun to peek through (definitely an affluent area). The houses then get much more spread out further away from the middle. In this dream I wanted to stay in the center and was running around the block and through the streets. It started with me running from something in a panic, but then transitioned into me running in order to train and keep my stamina up in case of emergencies. But i remember thinking to myself that I should stay inside the tight part so that if I did end up getting chased I could easily run between the houses and get away.
When I got back to my apartment, my partner was there talking about how the neighbors were preparing their houses. I felt uneasy and that something was off, but couldn’t put it into words. Then my alarm went off. Weird mix.
