It's one of those nights where I have my weird dreams/nightmares again. This time I had one really disturbing one.
So at the time, our country was at war. I can't say if it's Malaysia for sure because everything was so hazy, dirty, messy and chaotic. The sand dust and mud everywhere. People running in and out of the area, switching places trying to save their lives. I was a soldier. Everyone was except the elderly. Before I went for my turn (in the dream I was my younger self) to protect the country, my parents warned me if there were to be some unforeseen circumstances in which I happen to die, I should take a piece of wood and write my name and an address on it so that they know it was that time that I knew I was going to die. I ran up the cliff, using the bazooka as my only weapon to survive... "BANG!" I was shot while I was trying to reload my weapon... I then quickly took a piece of wood nearby, wrote on my name and an address, stumbled down the cliff and died. My parents saw me as I was stumbling down. They ran as fast as they could to come to my aid but it was too late. I was dead.I don't know what this dream is trying to tell me. Subconsciously there must be something. I checked out the dream dictionary once again and this is what is stated. Bits and pieces of it anyway.
War
To dream of war is an omen, warning of unhappy conditions at home and in love affairs. If you dream that your country wins a war, your life will be significantly better in the near future. This dream can also be a normal reaction to upsetting news of war or unrest in real life.
Soldier
To dream of soldiers is a warning against casual love affairs and ill-advised flirtations. If you dream of being a soldier yourself, you may be preparing yourself do battle over an issue and defend your values and opinions.
Weapons
To see or hold a weapon in your dream indicates a need to defend and protect yourself emotionally and/or physically. You are experiencing some conflict in your waking life. Alternatively, it suggests a fear of the opposite sex.
To dream that you are in danger and are wounded or killed, signifies discouraging prospects in love and/or trouble with schoolwork. You need to be more cautious in some aspect of your life.
Young / Younger
To dream that you are a younger version of yourself, symbolizes your frustrated attempts to fix past mistakes or capture lost opportunities.
Dad
To see your father in your dream, symbolizes authority and protection. It suggests that you need to be more self-reliant.Mother
Mothers in dreams usually invoke powerful emotions. If you are dreaming about your mother, you may be addressing some real-life issues or concerns about your mother in your dream, or your dream may be based on a valuable memory. The general image of "mother" in a dream may symbolize a variety of feelings and ideas: caring, nurturing, love, acceptance, hard work, sacrifice, etc. The mother in your dream could also represent that force, or current, inside of you that nudges you on and inspires you. It is your intuition and the knowledge that lives deep within your soul.Dead
If you dreamed that you were dead, this is actually a positive omen. It symbolizes renewal and letting go of an old stage of life. To see dead people in your dream who you do not know in real life, forewarns that you are being influenced by negative people and are hanging around the wrong crowd.
Death
Dreams about death are not necessarily bad omens, but they usually represent anxious or angry feelings. To dream of your own death is actually positive - it means renewal and letting go of an old stage of life. To dream of a death frequently signifies news of a birth.
To dream that you are killed (or being chased by a killer) foretells that enemies are working against you.

There you have it. If you've got this whole thing worked out, please do not hesitate to comment.
I had another nightmare last night as well. I accidentally put my house on fire. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH ME SUBCONSCIOUSLY? It wasn't on purpose. An acquaintance came into my house with her child. In the dream, her child was a friend of my sister (back when she was 5-7 years old). My mom then socialized with her, asking what she does for a living. Turned out she sold these metal, bronze lookalike things which come in all shapes and sizes. She said the smaller pieces are sold for RM200. I then took one to try about as a light bulb.
All of a sudden, massive liquid came out pouring (like saliva) and then it TURNED INTO FIRE! That's when I got freaked out. I couldn't control the fire. It got bigger and bigger. In the nightmare, my whole family was there. They too couldn't control the fire. I don't remember what happened next as I woke up. But to my astonishment, the ceiling fan in my room was switched on. I NEVER switched the ceiling fan on. It was so weird. I would normally remember if I got up and did something. This time, I haven't got a clue.
HELP?!
