Personal Narrative Dream of Travelling through a Cell
My brother was studying for his biology test. The next morning he was telling me about the dream he had. He said he traveled through a cell. I started to call him insane. My brother have an educational dream? I thought to myself, impossible.
My brother started to tell me his crazy dream. The first place he came upon was the cell wall. He was trying to find a way out. He said he started to talk to the cell wall. He asked the cell wall the way out. The cell wall said to him “How should I know? I’m the outer most part of the cell all I do is make cellulose. You might want to ask the cell membrane she is right next to me.” He told me he didn’t have to walk far to get to the cell membrane. He described the inside of the cell membrane. He said he saw parts flying in and out of there. Kind of like an assembly line. He asked the cell membrane the way out. The cell membrane just replied “ How should I know? I’m an envelope that engulfs the cell which permits a passage of materials into and out of the cell. I’m very thin and flexi...
The building of the grocery store is like the cell membrane, because it gives it structure and keeps everything inside safe. The security guard of the front door in the grocery store is like the cell membrane, because it says what can come in and out of the cell. The boss of the store is like the nucleus, because they tell the employes what to do and what needs to be done. The floors of the grocery store is like the cytoplasm, because it hold everything in it place, where it need to be. The illes in the store is
In the early 1900s, Sigmund Freud proposed that dreams serve as a gateway between a dreamers’ conscious and his subconscious thoughts (Mccurdy, 1946). Many ideas and information were condensed into a single dream. The dream displaced important parts and insignificant parts of the dream to confuse the dreamer. Certain objects would be introduced into the dream to symbolize the embryonic substance of the dream (Sprengnether, 2003). The dreamer would then comprehend the dream, thus generating the content of th...
Have you ever experienced a dream or a nightmare that seemed like reality? Most people in the world today would say that they have. Although this realistic dream experience does not occur often, when it does, clear distinctions are hard to make between the dream and reality. Theories exist that explain dreams as our subconscious
Having that exhilarating dream, or terrifying one makes me wonder about dreams. The wonder of dreams grows by the day. I continually ask myself why do I dream; what causes me to dream? Where do our dreams originate and occur? Do my dreams have meaning? The answers to these questions are a little complex. The answers I have to give are very sophisticated and need to be thoroughly thought out.
This book is a collection of information about dreams, ranging from folklore and ancient beliefs to current scientific research. The thoughts of dozens, perhaps even hundreds of philosophers, researchers, and other dreamers are briefly summarized in chronological order, from Plato to Artemidorus, from Erik Erikson to Calvin

The cell membrane is a structure that controls what enters and leaves the cell. In a basketball stadium, the security guards are like the cell membrane. They can say who comes in if they don’t cause any problems and are following the rules and they can reject them and make them leave if they have something they aren’t supposed to or they are doing something wrong. This is how security guards are like a plant cell’s cell membrane because the security guards control what enters and leaves the stadium like the membrane controls what enters and leaves the cell.
Students should explain possible interpretations of Franco's dream: A Freudian interpretation would involve identifying symbols in the manifest content of the dream (the apparent dream content) and what those symbols indicate about unconscious wishes and anxieties (the latent content). A memory consolidation (or information-processing) interpretation would explain that the dream most likely occurred during REM sleep, and that REM sleep is associated with encoding memories. Activation-synthesis theory explains that dreams are the brain's attempt to make sense of random neural
Doctors call it nightmare disorder or dream anxiety disorder. I don't like the word disorder. It makes me feel like there's something wrong with me. There's nothing wrong with me. I just have lots of nightmares, that's all.
II. (Introduce Topic) Since the beginning of time, people have been trying to understand the different functions of the human body, how we move, talk, and even act. Many of these physiological behaviors have been explained to some extent. However, one area of the human body that has baffled researchers, is that of the mind. Many things that go on inside the mind that don’t make sense, and serves no real explanation as to why or how things happen. One of the most fascinating and mysterious sections of psychology is that of dreaming. Even though there are numerous theories about dreams; whomever you are, wherever you live, you will dream. Whether it's a good dream or a nightmare is up to your mind, but there must be some reasoning behind dreams, right?
Dreams have been a mystery that has intrigued the human race for hundreds of years. The fact that our brains have the ability to project images of our subconscious, yet the source of the images are still unknown, has caused thousands of psychologists to devote themselves to the study of the phenomenon. After spending two weeks tracking my sleep and dreams, I am of the belief that dreams are our brain’s way of conceptualizing reality while finding a way to solve the problems in our daily lives.
1. It is believed that dreams are attempts of the soul to live the body. If this
...eams has intrigued and puzzled society and psychologists for the entirety of human existence. Although we have a better understanding today because of influential psychologists such as Freud and Hall, we still do not have any concrete reasoning for or complete agreement on dream’s true purpose. Some people side with the Freudian ideals of dreams as a practical necessity for existence while others side with Hall’s opinion that dreams serve as learning devices. After completing my research I believe that dreams not only serve both those purposes, but most likely have many more purposes and roots as well. The complexity of and intricacy of dreams leads me to believe they are not meaningless exercises performed by the brain, but deeply meaningful and useful keys to our existence. I think there are many more secrets to be unlocked and revealed by the studying of dreams.
During prescientific days, dreams were interpreted as ‘manifestations’ of a ‘higher power’. Since the introduction of psychology, dreams have had 4 distinct interpretations. The first interprets dreams as a “liberation of the spirit from the pressure of external nature”. The second interprets dreams as “accidental disturbances from ‘internal organs’. The third interprets dreams as a foretelling of the future. The last interpretation is Freud’s. He interprets dream as an expression of subconscious desires.
To claim that lucid dreaming is “just a theory” is the same as saying that evolution and gravity are “just theories”, which in fact are real and proven by hard evidence and in no way should equate to belittle the subject of lucid dreaming at hand. In th...
