I dreamed I was making videos at a media company. After finishing, everyone attended a year-end banquet at a Western-style buffet restaurant.
The restaurant seemed like a half-basement space, a bit plain with a few round tables. I saw my former colleague Leya and took a seat next to her before going to get food.
The restaurant didn't even have plates; they served food in plastic folding boxes. I scooped some tomatoes and picked out some vegetables.
I noticed a machine for cutting chicken and duck, but I hesitated to use it fearing my hand might get caught if the machine suddenly started running.
Then I saw my elementary school classmate, Omin Huang, operating the machine. It automatically sliced the duck into several pieces. I picked up a duck leg that looked oily and delicious. After circling around, I couldn't find much to add to my box; it wasn't even filled.
Returning to my seat, I found it had been rearranged. The round table had become a long one, and Leya and I were now at different tables. It didn't matter much; I sat down to eat.
My cousin Cindy came over and handed me a pack of tissues, which I accepted. She made a gesture in front of me, seeming to imply she wanted a tip. I wondered, 'Huh? What does she mean?' Cindy might have felt awkward and went to distribute tissues to another table without asking for a tip.
Suddenly, I understood that it was a request for a tip. I called Cindy back, took out my small wallet with a wrinkled 50-dollar bill among others, not looking like new Taiwanese currency. I gave Cindy the 50-dollar bill, and she was very pleased.
Later, watching others, I exclaimed, 'Hey hey! They're charging you for tissues!' Everyone reluctantly pulled out 10s and 20s. Cindy happily walked away.
Then another girl came over with tissues for me. I thought, 'Why do they keep bringing me tissues? I really don't have much money left!' I told her someone had already brought tissues earlier. Embarrassed, she took her tissue basket to another table.
At our table, we discussed a promotional video we had just finished shooting. We played it there, with the content humorously satirizing the hardships of life. We all watched and discussed various opinions.
The video also mentioned a land sales company where I saw my old colleague Alex. He pointed out a word combination in the video, adding '土' beneath '售', which made the word look strange, and then I woke up.
夢見我在一家媒體公司弄影片。結束後大家吃尾牙,到一家西式自助餐餐廳。
這餐廳像是半個地下室空間,看來有點簡陋,有幾張圓桌。我看到老同事 Leya,我在她旁邊佔個位子,就去拿食物。
這餐廳連個盤子都沒有,提供塑膠折疊盒裝餐點。我撈了一些番茄,夾了一些菜。
看到一台切雞鴨的機器,我不太敢去夾,怕手伸進去,如果機器突然動起來,我怕我的手就沒了。
然後我看到小學同學黃O敏,她操作那台機器,自動把鴨肉切成好幾塊。我夾了一根鴨腿,它看起來油滋滋,應該很好吃。我繞了一圈,挑不到什麼菜,竟然連一盒都沒裝滿。
我回到我的座位,發現重新排過。原本圓桌換成長條桌,我跟 Leya 就不同桌。不過也沒關係,我就坐下來吃東西。
表妹 Cindy 過來,拿了一包衛生紙給我,我收下來。她在我面前比了一個手勢,好像是要小費的意思。我心想:「 蛤?什麼意思?」Cindy 可能覺得有點不好意思,就到別桌發面紙,也不敢要小費。
我突然明白原來這是「要小費」的意思。我把 Cindy 叫過來,拿出我的小錢包,有 20 元和 50 元的紙鈔,50 元紙鈔還皺巴巴的,看來不像新台幣。我拿了 50 元紙鈔給 Cindy,她很開心。
後來我看著其他人,喊著:「嘿嘿!人家給你們面紙是要收小費啦!」大家只好陸陸續續掏出 10 塊、20 塊,Cindy 很開心的走了。
然後另一個女生過來,又要給我面紙。我心想:「怎麼一直來給面紙?我真的沒什麼錢了啦!」我跟她講剛剛已經有人來發過面紙了。這女生覺得有點不好意思,提著面紙籃到別桌去。
我們這一桌就在討論之前拍的宣傳影片。剛好影片編輯完,我們在那裡播著看。影片內容說民生活很苦、很可憐啊!可是用一種很搞笑、很浮誇的方式在反諷。我們一夥人看著影片,討論各種意見。
影片上還提到一家土地銷售公司,我看到老同事 Alex。他在影片上提到一個組合字,就是 "售" 的下方加個 "土"。我覺得這個字變得很奇怪,就醒了。
這個夢似乎以一種誇張、近乎超現實的方式融合了工作、社會動態和微妙的焦慮等主題。以下是各種元素的可能解釋:
1. 工作地點和任務(媒體公司和拍攝)
在媒體公司工作和製作影片的環境,可能象徵著你的專業身分或創造性的努力。它可能代表你對感覺不完整或正在進行的專案或工作任務的想法,因為拍攝通常被視為捕捉和產生有價值的東西。
2. 年終晚宴及簡易自助餐
簡單的自助餐廳舉辦的尾牙,體現了工作或社交圈人士的聚會,但環境卻出乎意料的簡陋或臨時。這可能暗示著一種處於未完成或次優狀態的感覺,事情沒有你預期的那麼完美,也許反映了你對生活或職業的某些方面的感受。
3. 食物與猶豫(番茄、鴨子、切割機)
食物體驗——舀蕃茄、對切割機保持警惕,以及觀察其他人處理任務——可能反映出一種不確定或憂慮的感覺。害怕使用切割機,擔心你的手,可能象徵著你對生活中的危險決定或行動的擔憂,你對潛在後果持謹慎態度。
4. 與老同事的互動(Leya、Alex)
見到像 Leya 和 Alex 這樣的前同事,可能會暗示出對過去的聯繫、工作關係或合作的未解決的感情或揮之不去的想法。Alex 場景中奇怪的詞語組合,可能表明過去的聯想中存在混亂或感覺「不對勁」或被誤解的東西。
5. 表妹 Cindy 和紙巾小費
你的表妹 Cindy 提供紙巾並期待小費,可能象徵著你們關係中的一種微妙的義務或壓力感,其他人可能會期望你做一些你不完全意識到或不舒服的事情。它可能暗示你生活中的人巧妙地請求你的關注或資源,或者它可能代表在處理請求時的內疚感或尷尬感。
6. 宣傳影片和諷刺內容
觀看幽默地誇大生活艱辛的宣傳影片,暗示了一種應對機制,即用幽默來應對或反思挑戰。該影片的諷刺,可能反映了你內心的對話,你承認生活中的困難,但也發現其中的幽默或荒謬。
7. 更改桌位安排設置
桌子的重新排列以及坐在與預期不同的地方,可能意味著你的社交或職業生活中出現脫節或調整的感覺。它表明你周圍正在發生變化,改變你與他人互動的方式。
8. 稀缺感(紙巾和金錢)
不斷有人提供紙巾和感覺自己沒有足夠的錢,象徵著資源匱乏的感覺,或者擔心別人索要的東西超出了你所能給予的範圍,無論是在情感上、社交上還是經濟上。
整體主題:
這個夢可能反映了你生活中的一種轉變感,你正在經歷工作、社會動態和期望的變化。人們對義務、資源和感覺有些失控有一種潛在的焦慮,但其中夾雜著幽默和認識到並非一切都像看起來那麼嚴重。這個夢可能會促使你反思自己的界線,以及如何管理義務,同時也以更輕鬆、更幽默的視角來看待生活中的挑戰。
