Sleep event

1. I was running through the forest with my sister. A pack of wolves was chasing us. We came to a clearing with a mansion, which was our home. We ran inside (there was a wall that was not there so you could just run in) and I hid behind a chair. A wolf came to the chair on the other side and started circling round it, so I circled too, trying to stay on the opposite side from him. He was going kind of slow, so I did not think he saw me. After we had gone all the way around, he changed direction so that we ran into each other. To escape, I launched myself through the air and flew out of the house and into a thick part of the forest. I was all tangled up and could not move, but I heard wolves plowing towards me. I hid my face in a tangle of vines, until I heard a wolf approach and felt a golden light behind me. I raised my head and turned around, and saw a wolf staring at me, emanating a golden light. The golden light grew until it was all I could see. The mood of this dream was mysterious. 2. In real life, I have been waiting for a phone call from my friend. Well, he called me in my dream and we talked about everything I had wanted to talk about, so I felt great. When I woke up and realized that he had not called me after all, I was so mad. > 3. I was talking to this blonde woman as we rode in a canoe together through a swamp. We had just passed a little ring of cattail-y things with an opening that you could sail into, and so she was telling me about how she went to a sort of spiritual camp in that ring one time. She was very scornful of the camp, saying that she had 'fallen for all that stuff at the time, but of course now I realize it is ridiculous' and that sort of thing. As an example of how crazy the camp was, she told me something they had told her. She said that they had said that God could not be powerful as long as he was gold (as in, the chemical element). She was laughing as if it was completely stupid, so I did not say anything, but I wanted to hear the story in more detail because I thought it had a lot of potential. After I woke up, I lay in bed for a while trying to coax it into a good story, but I have not been able to, so far. 4. I was in a mansion with my sister, like the first dream, but it was different and more complete. We were doing a scavenger hunt that our mom had made, to keep us occupied. We found this old book on a pedestal and thought it was a clue. We opened it up and found that the first couple of pages were in braille. We took it to dad, who was riding in a canoe in a canal (like in dream 3). We showed him the book and he told us what it said to do. 5. I was in a canal with my dad. we were swimming, but there were these launchers that would make you go really fast.
