Just as the task asks, I will focus mainly on the last three nights’ dreams.

Before I start, I have

to mention that I used different dream dictionaries because the suggested site (
https://dreaminterpretationsguide.com/) is not working. I will list here the sites where these
dictionaries may be found: http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary/r3.htm,
https://www.dreamdictionary.org/c/, https://www.dreamencyclopedia.net/ .
Everybody knows that a dream includes images, thoughts, and emotions that are experienced
during sleep. Some dreams are joyful, while others are frightening or sad. Sometimes dreams
seem to have a clear narrative, while many others appear to make no sense at all. Sometimes
the dreams are so persistent at the moment of waking up, that one may remember it in small
details, and even feel like they are real. But there are also unclear, confusing dreams which
can hardly be remembered. Each of us has the tendency of interpreting the meaning of the
dreams as they may be a source of information regarding present or future events in our life.
However, the dreams mean more that informing us about what is it about to happen with us in
the future; they have other important functions. Some dream theories assert that the function
of dreaming is to
 Consolidate memories
 Process emotions
 Express our deepest desires
 Gain practice confronting potential dangers
Sigmund Freud’s theory of dreams suggests that dreams represent unconscious desires,
thoughts, wish fulfillment, and motivations. In "The Interpretation of Dreams," Freud wrote
that dreams are "disguised fulfillments of repressed wishes." 
On the other hand, Rosalind D. Cartwright’ theory suggests that dreaming, particularly during
REM sleep, is a way to process emotions experienced during the day. 
Saturday
I had a nice dream last night. I was playing the piano in front of a large crowd. Pacil, my
piano player idol was there, too. He was sitting in the front row and supporting me. I was
happy and I was doing my best to prove my dedication to music. I think I had this dream as
before going to bed I watched a video of Pacil’s interpretation, and I talked to my parents
about how nice would be to be able to play the piano like him, one day. I woke up in a good
mood.
On Saturday night I dreamt of playing the piano. According to the explanation I found on the
www.dreammods.com, to dream that one plays the piano indicates quest for harmony in
his/her life. It also says „Consider where the piano is placed as a clue as to what aspect of
your life needs accordance. If no sound is coming out of the piano, then it implies a lack of
confidence. You are not sure about how to express yourself and how to voice your beliefs.” I
simply do not remember where the piano was placed, but I remember the music came out of
it. Anyway, there is some truth in the explanation as I need more harmony in my life. I feel
like there is something missing; there are things I must do and change in order to feel
complete. However, I woke up in a good mood and started playing the piano. I am confident
that my skills will improve and I will meet Pacil in person one day. From my personal
opinion, I dreamt of playing the piano also because I watched a piano playing video before
going to bed. It was the freshest memory I had before falling asleep. It definitively influenced
my dream, as playing the piano like a pro is one of my deepest desire.
Sunday
I had a very intriguing dream. Given the war circumstances, I dreamt about being in the
middle of the war, and trying to run away from a bomb coming. I was stuck in a small space,
and I could not move my legs and run. I was alone, although I could hear voices in a distance.
I think I had this dream because on Saturday I watched the war news on TV, and there came
out speculations about young boys joining the war in case Romania is at threat.
Monday
I dreamt about war again. The fact that we are at the border to Ukraine makes everyone speak
about this undesired war. The social media is invaded by news about war. This time, I was
along with some persons I know, but I do not remember their faces. I just remember that they
were family, but I cannot tell precisely who were they. I am concerned about the risk of being
forced to leave everything and go away, or being forced to join the army. I woke up very
tired.
On Sunday and Monday nights I dreamt mostly of war. There are more than one explanation
for dreaming war. The dream dictionary says that „Wars are very symbolic suggesting inner
conflict that needs to be resolved. Most often the war takes place in our mind as you are trying
to resolve two opposing negative factors. This is why it is quite common to escape from the
war in  your dream, but it can be seen as a negative symbol of avoidance. Alternatively, you
may be escaping a very toxic or volatile environment. These conflicts might mirror past
unresolved experiences, toxic relationships, work or family environments.’
(https://www.dreamdictionary.org/). It is, indeed, an inner conflict – I fear war might affect
my country (Romania) and consequently, might affect me, which would lead to tremendous
changings in my future plans. I do not want to go to war; in fact I am afraid of war and I hate
it because it is destructive and useless. I want to fullfill my plans. But at the same time, the
news about war coming from all over the sources have become the dominant concern and
deeply affected my thought. I’d rather think that the everyday experience has to do with my
dream. Definitively it is a consequence of the daily talking and news watching.
Dreaming about being stuck gets the following explanation „ These dreams are quite common
symbols of the inability to move forward in your life.  These vivid dreams want to grab your
attention for you to fix this problem in your waking life. However you may experience sleep
paralysis, the inability to move as you are stuck seeing and hearing things that are not there.”
on https://www.dreamdictionary.org. It is partly true as at this moment I cannot move forward
in my life. I have to graduate, to take the baccalaureate exam, tom ove house. There are plenty
of changings that I must do in my life. At the same time I fear of war and I hear young, rich
people are leaving the country already for a safer and remote country. I do not get it – why to
leave unless the war starts. Anyway, there are many questions in my mind and I think I am
little bit stuck, indeed, nowadays. The fact that my dream repeated the next night is a sign of
big concern. On Monday’s dream I was in the company of some persons from the family. I do
not know who exactly they were. But I talked to my father about the possibility of joining the
army together in case of war. Maybe it was him, maybe someone else. „To see people you
know in your dream signifies qualities and feelings of them that you desire for
yourself”( http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary)
Tuesday
I do not remember too much of my last night dream. I was very tired and I slept like a log. I
only remember me being at a tennis championship. I was playing against a big opponent and I
was trying hard to reach all balls. I woke up suddenly as the phone rang.
On Tuesday I slept like a log but I dreamt about a tennis championship. I am concerned with
my tennis game and tennis competitions, too. I do not remember to have spoken about tennis
the previous day, but it is something I think of on regular basis. „To dream of playing a sports
game represents rest, leisure and fun will soon unfold in your life. Winning or losing a game
will mirror the outcome of advancement or being held back in some aspect in your
life”( https://www.dreamdictionary.org) .
The other nights came with other kind of dreams.
Wednesday
I just remember that I was in Barcelona, eating ice cream. There were many persons around,
but a single familiar face. I was in doubt whether to stay longer there, or to return to Romania.
I do not remember what was the final decision, but I think it had to do with my upcoming
travel to Barcelona. The day before, I talked with those that are joining me there about the
length of our stay. Surely, it was a consequence of the that talking.
Dreaming about “eating or seeing ice cream in your dream represents being satisfied and
content with things that are happening in your life. A sign that you will get some enjoyment
and satisfaction in your life” and „ random people reflect our fears, family, unconscious
aspects of ourselves that can be for or against us.”(https://www.dreamdictionary.org) On
https://www.dreamencyclopedia.net/ a dillema represents a warning to avert a situation. In my
dream I did not know what to do – to stay longer in Barcelona or to leave. In my opinion, the
dream had a lot to do with the conversation I had about the trip to Spain.
Thursday
I remember some small parts of my dreams last night. I dreamt more than once, and each time
the dream was different. I can remember that I was trying on new shoes in a store. I think it
had to do with my conversation I had with a friend of mine about a new collection of shoes.
Then, I remember dreaming my grandparents. My grandpa is no longer with us, as he passes
away 2 years ago. But I speak about him every single day, and I guess that is why I dreamt
him. He and my grandmother were laughing, but I do not know why. I woke up thinking of
them.
The dreams I had on Thursday night were nice ones. Trying on shoes means a movement in
one’s life. On the site https://www.dreamdictionary.org/ ”Shoes are considered a very
significant symbol that reflects your path and movements in your life. Often times we are
buying, losing or trying on a new pair. Sometimes we noticed different colors and other times
we are barefoot. All of these images reflect what might be going on during points of our life.
However not having a shoe or missing one implies a lack of balance in life.  If your laces are
untied suggest a need to tighten up how you move in life.” In what concerns my grandparents,
I frequently dream them because they are a constant presence in my life. Dreaming a dead
person „can be both rewarding and terrifying depending the context of the dream. There seem
to be a fine line between actual contact or repressed memories or emotions that have come
back to pay you a visit. The dead bring us valuable messages from beyond the grave for you
to decode; known to smile, hug us and even talk to us. If your dead loved ones have brought
you a gift it contains a coded message”. Also, „dreaming about your grandfather is considered
a very powerful omen that often points to forgotten memories or sometimes actual contact.
Usually when the dead appear to us in our dreams they often come with gifts or the dreams is
so vivid that it makes you wonder if you actually connected in the ether world. So how would
you be able to decipher between and actually visitation dream or just memories stored within
your unconsciousness.” (https://www.dreamdictionary.org) I only can conclude that my
grandfather is still with me in my memories and in my heart, and I believe he watches over
me as he used to do when alive. I guess he tries to give me strenght and courage tom ove on
and to face all difficulties bravely and positively.
Friday
I had a tiresome dream last night. I was late for the baccalaureate exam. I knew I had to get to
the designated center to have my exam, but the car would not start. I was terrified about losing
the chance to get there on time. I remember I started running alone to the destination. I was
running but not advancing. I tried to shout but the words would not come out. I woke up
confused and tired. I think it was the consequence of having talked about this exam the
previous day, and having expressed my concerns about it.
Finally, the Friday night dream was one of the most tiresome ever. Given the circumstances
and my constant concern for the futures exams, the dream seemed not that unusual. But a car
that not starts is translated this way: “to dream that your car won't start indicates that you are
feeling powerless in some situation”. „To dream that you are trying to run but cannot make
your feet move as fast as you want them to signifies lack of self-esteem and self-confidence.”
Both the car which did not start and the feet which did not move are symbols of the inability
of dealing all life situations. It is obvious that I need support from the dear ones, from my
family and friends to achieve my goals.
In conclusion, based on the content of my dreams, the theory that appears most accurate in
representing the purpose of my dreams ist hat of Rosalind Cartwright’s.
