Depends on the dreams. The kind of dreams I remember the most is the one which involves thrilling situations, like me becoming a detective and solving crime. I usually recall those dreams in full details: how everything happens, how I become a hero (or a villain), what I do and encounter. I remember all of them in colors and shapes. I love those dreams and would like to dream again and again, but too bad they don’t appear often, and I usually don’t have much time to see the endings.
I still remember one dream in which I’m a hardboiled detective trying to uncover my “mom’s” dirty secret (she’s not my real mom, she’s just an old woman who claims to be my mom) with my two partners: a big fat man and a Chinese-looking man. The part I remember the most is the very last part of my dream: somehow I predicted that “mom” was going to be killed and I asked my two partners to guard her house, and I met up with the bad guys somewhere. There was a big fight. And although I won, I was badly injured and had to retreat. When I came back, the Chinese man ran toward me with a frightening look. I got inside and saw the fat man knocked unconscious and “mom” in a pool of blood. In the last scene, I held “mom” in my arm and swore revenge, while the fat man gave me and apologetic look and the Chinese man whispered some kind of prayer. The dream is still very clear to me, all the colors and details, as if it came from a movie and not a dream.
I only remember other kinds of dreams vaguely. There are even some dreams that I completely forget.
