Hey guys, I'm totally tripping balls.
Let me explain.
Last week, my knee started feeling wonky, I know it's from the heavy working out I did the week before. I think I reached that point where working out became more of an escape for a week than simply for exercise. Then, this last weekend my knee really didn't like me helping my sis move. Compound that to the fact that I partied HARD friday and saturday...well, monday I woke up with a sore throat.
What's interesting is that last week, when my knee was kind of so-so, I instinctual knew my body was asking for a break. I didn't listen. Now with my throat, well I know for a fact it wants a break. I also know, if I were to continue pushing myself, my body would find another way to tell me to chill the fuck out.
So now I've popped two day quills and am getting ready to enjoy the show =) Dayquil is my favorite part about soar throats...well, runny nose/soar throats.
On an unrelated note I have an interesting experience I wanted to share and get people opinions on.
Last night I went to sleep close to 2:00am. I started dreaming I was at a little gathering, like a little party. I don't remember much, but at one point I find myself sitting on a couch while all these people are looking for their shoes. Soon they realize I'm sitting on their shoes and they start to confront me. One person in particular starts grabbing the shoes from under me (I'm sitting on them and didn't feel it) while shaking me.
This is where I wake up only to still feel like I'm being shaken. The best way to describe what I see is a vaporous form hovering over me. This could have easily been some weird neurological disconnect. My hearing was also affected, the noises I heard reminded me of poltergeist type movies where a voice is trying to speak from beyond. Making high to low fluctuations that are essentially inaudible. My voice was also kind of stuttering. It felt like those times when you wake up and your mind is completely active but your body is in-responsive. I had to mentally fight for control of my body...
Like I said, easily, this could have been some weird neurological disconnect to which I'd be somewhat worried if it happens again. But those weren't my thoughts during the incident. My first thoughts were that this was a consciousness. I got the distinct feeling of aggression from it. I honestly felt as though I was being assaulted. I had the chills for a long time after the incident. Funny enough though, I wasn't scared. I was more like WTF. And was just happy that I'm spiritually grounded enough to know if it is an entity, it poses no threat to me.
I had a lot of odd dreams after that as well. I can't recall them...but that experience is now deeply embedded in my mind.
So what do you all think? Any of you had similar experiences?

Um... that sounds crazy and scary. Ron's had something weird that is sort of similar. About 90% of my dreams end with me deciding that I'm tired of them. The rest are me getting scared by my alarm clock or squeaking and waking myself up, so no freaky deaky spirit things shaking me. I don't think I've ever actually seen anything, but I get plenty of feelings of things/people in certain parts of my parent's house. I wouldn't use the shower in one of the bathrooms for a few years because when ever I would close my eyes to rinse my hair, I'd get an image of this shadowy thing in the back end of the tub.
Sorry to hear about the sickness. Enjoy your dayquil!
dayquil is awesome...
I've had a LOT of rooms in my mom's and grandmoa's house which...I just always felt uncomfortable in. I was a very sensitive kid...interestingly though, there came a point where I just feel that bone chilling feeling and stay put. You know that hair on the back of your neck standing feeling.
I'm hoping Crow chimes in on this seeing as how I'm now sleeping in his old room. He's always talked about that area next to the bathroom...I immediately thought of that area last night when I woke up...while I was being shaken.
I had a fairly similar experience, though I didn't actually "see" something I felt an aggressive presence. That was at our last apartment. Basically my eyes were open and I was looking towards the open door of my room, but I couldn't move and felt as though I was being suffocated. I freaked out, wanted to yell, but couldn't, and was in that state for what seemed like ten or 15 minutes. I felt like I was fighting something for my life, but I don't know in what way. Coulda only been a couple minutes but I really don't know. Eventually I was able to get up and walk around the house, got some water and went back to sleep to weird dreams. I had completely blocked it from my memory until later the next day when I was talking to Syd and telling her about my weird dreams that my mind went click and the experience came back to me vividly. Never had anything before or since like it and I hope never to again. Steve said it sounded like the phenomenon known as night terrors, but I never took the time to verify that it fit the description.
As for the area by the bathroom at your place, there was several times playing gamecube in Steve's room where I saw something out of the corner of my eye that looked like the shadow of a person in the "hallway" (when that door was open). Needless to say I was 100% with Steve when he wanted to close that door.
Dude, that hallway is totally creepy. It always seemed like there was something lurking with the water heater. I'd managed to forget about that. Thanks...
LOL I think I need to have a little chat something by the water heater.
Hey, I know! It was the beer ghost. He's pissed that you haven't been leaving enough beer for him to steal around the house lately. He always rinsed the bottles out and put them on the counter. Get the poor guy some beer so he doesn't have to bug you in your sleep!
I spent a lot of time in the back of that apartment and alone. Many mornings and nights when I was supposed to be at work or school but had flaked and stayed home I found that I had bargained for a more exciting experience than the work or school could have provided.
Honestly, seriously, this is all I can say.
When I was in high school I had this weirdo friend named Koroush (Lorenzo you met him) and he once told me a story about how a foreign entity had paralyzed him in his body, he had discovered the phenemenon after awaking in the middle of the night. It was much more like Lorenzo's experience than Moose because he claimed to hear sounds, and see "vapor" or something equivalent, its see through, barely noticeable. The one reason I believed him was because he was crazy, but also he was sensitive, and not a liar.
Than I moved to Berkeley. The same thing happened to me on many nights! I didnt usually see very much, although once or twice I did. But the feeling of being pressed down upon by an entity and the goosebumps were real. I even went as far as to try and jump up out of bead at least 4 or 5 times only to have the feeling of pressure pushing me back down. I never said anything to anyone. I talked about the specters in the hall way because a specter is something that doesnt touch us, and I didnt think anyone would be uncomfortable with my stories. The other incidents, which were much more frightening, were so "physical" I figured Id just keep it to myself in case it was something psychosomatic I didnt want anyone really finding out about until I had spoken with a psych. I never did though, I never had to, it happened more one summer than another (cant remember which) than it just stopped and never happened again. I always did the same thing. I didnt want to talk to the entity, I felt it was negative and had nothing to say to it as a result. So I would just pray for the light of Jesus to surround my room and remind all the entities within whose really in charge. Slowly but surely the feeling subside, the shivering would disappear, I would change positions and fall back asleep. Essentially, I usually acted like nothing happened, I didnt usually even get up and turn on a light, my logic was that I didnt want any entity to be aware that it had offended me, least it be tempted to do so again to get a rise (Ive heard that negative entities love nothing more than having an affect on "the living" because otherwise they have no real way to influence our world.
Although I have heard so many contrary theories about entities being able to lift chairs, etc etc, across the board most parapsychologists feel that these entities cant do very much to us unless we allow them to do it. I have no idea if the thing in the apartment is real, is an entity, or just an oddity. I do know what I experienced, there is more to tell, but perhaps for another time and place. I think this bit of info is enough to at the very least validate Lorigga's experience and his desire to want to share.
hmm...well, at least my brain isn't malfunctioning.
I think I'll light some candles tonight. I'm surprised because I haven't felt anything in that room and have been sleeping there for a while.
lol, makes life exciting.
And maybe the Eye of Ra needs to make a guest appearance in that room. =)
And I need to ask Belen about this. Cause uhh, I like my sleep.
and one other thing. by all means crow, share youre experiences! I grew up scared as shit many nights by "things" and find the most comfort when I knew I wasn't crazy when certain things happened...so if theres more...well, I'd like to know about it before I get a chance to see/experience it first hand.
haha, sharing isnt an issue these days brother. Its just time. Im out. Stories not worth telling unless its told properly as far as Im concerned.
As for sleeping, I slept just fine in that room for years, and it only happened to me less than a dozen times so its no surprise at all that you havent noticed anything. When I said it happened many times I didnt mean every night bro. You should be just fine but do what you feel is right. I never did anything, I still slept like a babe
almost every night. In fact I got much better sleep in that apt than Ive ever gotten since Ive been back in L.A. Ahh tiger, I miss you.
