I am observing for last few months strange things in dreams in night.
I see beautiful buildings and structures which I never saw in my life.
I see master peace of creativity in dreams which I never saw in my life
Yesterday in dream I attended and learned workshop of building construction.
Yes I don’t deny the fact I am student of architecture. I also don’t deny the fact I miss my college a lot due to sleep. I also don’t deny things that I read and forget a lot specially architecture related things . I also don’t deny the fact I am worst student as per others opinion because I cannot do submission in time. But I see paradise in my dream. I am not good in sketching but I have decided to try to bring design from dream to our life so that they can see what I saw in dreams. I become blank while writing paper of History of Architecture but when I try to sketch I can remember things and then I try to construct words and it works.

My submission are not over, and I may have to do Redo (Redo is pride of architecture) this semester examination. As my submission are not up to the mark. I spend lot of time in fatigue in day but now even in movie I try to see at design pattern of background ,etc and not to actors and actress.
Can anyone guide me how to face real word because they won’t appreciate my dreams because they cannot see it, they cannot understand what physical problem I have, they won’t understand why I missed the college. All give challenge that I won’t become architect. I am bit down while facing my teachers after I missed college a lot because I cannot wake up in morning at 5-6 am and reach college which takes 1 hr of travelling.

.

It is such a good feeling when I read about some one who goes through the exact same thing as me. Except with me I tend to have dreams about the end of the world. I wish I was a good writer because my dreams tell some amazing stories.

If you are serious about getting your dreams onto paper, I would suggest finding some one who is is very good at drawing and perhaps from there drawings you would be able to do your own architectural drawing, not having to worry about forgetting bits of detail.

I think if I was an art student and was given the oppurtunity to draw a narcoleptics dreams , that would be pretty cool.
As for you teachers, they should make more effort, have more patience and give you the attention you need. YOu should print off some information to help them understand.

Normal is boring! :blink:

both of you're comments are much enjoyed, mmk this goes for most of your input,.

I am a Landscape Designer, working for a large contractor. I spend about .005% of my time in creative design work,(sigh). the bulk of my time and energy is devoted to the details, efficiencies, and potentials, of budgets, and logistics, as related to our in hand work load(sigh). I would rather create! my vervum espri,(vivant motivacion,) is the drive to create. As a naturalist, nativist, and a devoted student of THE Creator, my tastes turn to re-creating, using the inestimable, and understudied virtues found in gentle observation of our natural world( or as close to natural as can be found).Instead my primary goal is maintaining an acceptable level of income, so as to care for my wonderful daughters. The purpose obviously outweighs the morbidly mundane nature of the work that provides for my family, as your classes will most likely provide for you in the future???

I have to take time to admit and take pride in the fact that my studies and creative analytical abilities that I bring to the office, make me uniquely, ABLE to notice the possibilities, and potentials that others miss, and to provide solutions they would not have the capacity to consider, or implement.

I believe that specifically:

,****as a Narcoleptic, I have chemical, and environmental conditioning, advantageous to the creative process,

relative to an atypical pattern of thought process. Can you relate?? I believe from reading your posts that this is a mutual trait of a high percentage of pwn who have experienced poorly understood symptoms throughout developmental periods of life. Particularly in relation to life as a student, and peer interaction.

As you relate, there is some benefit, resource, that is almost tangible, to our higher level of dream-state. I feel like it would be a shame, with how little energy(and other appreciated value that some see in us), to be unable to make use of some part of our mental overexertions.

For an outlet, I do volunteer cad drafting, and consulting, for non-profit associations that wish to yield place for the reapplication of natural proccess through Landscape design. Planting the most suited native species, dedicating the best spaces to nature rather than turf, and avoiding disruption to whatever naturally valuable habitat resources exist. I have some pride in my knowledge base and talent in regard to plant life in general, including the alleleopathic, sympathetic, and demand relationships between plant, bacterial, fungal, and animal communities.
