This is a dream I had last night. I very rarely
remember my dreams, but I remembered this one, obviously, and I like
telling about them.
I'm hoping there was nothing before this, but this is the first
thing I remember. If there was anything before it, it's not
important, just normal stuff leading up to this event. I was at an
amusement park with my family and we got on this ride that was like
the swings ride at the fair, but the things we sat in were larger
and were connected by bungee cords to a center pole that had a
basketball hoop on it. The ride was like as high up as the Empire
State Building. We got foam basketballs, the size of real basketballs
and while the ride spun us around, we'd have to shoot them into the
basketball hoop. My dad would always make it and I'd usually miss.
It was hard to do it while spinning around and since they were
connected by bungee cords, sometimes you'd be further away from the
pole than others. You only got one ball each time around and I
wondered how they got the ones we dropped, especially if the wind
was blowing.
I noticed that sometimes other people would get further away from
the pole than others due to the way it spun, but then, I was the one
who got out further 3 rotations in a row and it was kinda freaky
whenever it would happen. Then my bungee cord snapped. My seat thing
disappeared. It didn't feel like I was falling, but more like
floating in the air as the ground got closer. I first tried to find
some water to fall into, but as I neared the blue surface, I
realized it was just a blue-colored part of the ground. I saw a big
air-filled thing that kids would jump on and wondered if it would
break my fall enough. I wasn't close enough, though. It was too late
to move anywhere and I fell onto a large tent and broke through it.
Under it was some sort of metal structure and I caught hold of one
of the bars and bent the whole thing down while I fell and landed
safely. Then I woke up at it was 2-something in the morning.
