Searching the web

Recently, I have just dreamt about me doing research on Reinhold. Normally, resources of anything directly related to him are not available on the Internet but on the dream, it was.

The first part of it was me watching a YouTube video where he was there. I was surprised because I didn’t know that he played football, what some of you would call soccer. This was actually a memory in the form of a ‘video’. He was about 17-19 in that memory and he happened to be one of the strikers or midfielders. Either way, he was about to score a goal. In that ‘video’ there was also a commentator announcing his name and everything(in English). It wasn’t just a casual game too. There was also some early 20th century music in the background like the trumpet playing before a segment starts. I think that he was playing somewhere in England, if I’m not mistaken. He, like everyone else, was wearing a cotton jersey. 

The second part of it was when I took further interest on my past life self, without knowing about our link in that dream, was me reading his Wikipedia article. No, you can’t search it up in real life. One part which caught my attention was when it mentioned that he was a poster boy as a teenager for Nazi  propaganda. As a teenager, he could pass as a little boy so he would have done it to promote the Hitlerjugend. There’s also other details:

Born: Reinhold Wilhelm von (I missed this part 😢) Strandt, January 15, 1919, Schmallenberg, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany
Died: April 15, 1985(aged 66), (a city near the Volga River), Russia
Cause of death: Gunshot, suicide
Other name(s): Raymond Anthony Seymour
Occupation: Spy
Height: 6’ 00” (183cm)
Spouse(s): Melinda Fischer (m.1939-1985)
Children: Unknown children from Lebensborn programme, 
Victoria Malthilde Strandt (1942-43)
Matthias James Seymour (1948-2017)
Mary Anne Seymour (1950)
George Stewart Seymour (1953)
Anissa Barbara Seymour (1955)

For his early life, the article talked about his upbringing in a wealthy family, the fact that he played various instruments(mainly the violin) and his ability to speak many languages. There’s also his ancestry which is quite long because he was very mixed. As for education, he was initially studying medicine but switched to law. He had to study it twice because he emigrated from Germany to the United States which had different sets of laws. For career, it would mainly talk about espionage and stuff he did in the Gestapo and Einsatzgruppen. People he worked with was mentioned as well. For personal life, it talked about his family and his history of having many exes before settling with Melinda, the woman whom I usually call ‘Mel’. The article ended with his death and legacy.

Raise a glass

Raise a glass to a new memory from this morning! There are two parts to this memory. The first part was when I was fencing for the fun of it. Yep, I was taught the sport. Many aristocrats like me were supposed to learn it and I wanted to put my skills to the test by having someone really competent as my opponent. When my subconscious told me who my opponent was, I was actually a little surprised. You see, we didn’t know each other that well at the time. I was only 19 years old and we only started to interact more when I hit my 20s. The opponent was Reinhard, by the way. I decided to be aggressive throughout the game and use my aggression as a tactic. I would always use my brain more whenever I competed with someone. I thought that this would scare him and it did a little but he still won anyway. However, I came close to beating him so good enough, I guess. So basically, there were three rounds. I beat him in one of them while he beat me in the other two. In one of the two rounds, I...

Some more memories

I was in the first memory but it featured the Heydrich bros, Heinz and Reinhard, more. My subconscious mentioned that the two mostly talked about music and art. They're very cultured people. I could’ve joined in the conversation but I didn’t know what they were talking about. It was better for me to shut up rather than embarrassing myself. In the second memory, I was in a group on a stage and it was something like a string club. I was playing the cello and I was ready first so I was tuning it while the others stared at me for a while. I looked excited because I seemed new to the instrument. I was having a lot of fun. I probably swapped with my friend considering that the cello wasn’t my primary instrument. My primary instrument was the violin. In the third memory, I was at my friend’s place and I was drinking cold water from a jug-looking water bottle straight from the fridge. I was a messy drinker, a lot of water spilled while I was drinking. Oops? Judging from his house, he w...

I hate sand **updated**

No seriously, I don’t like sand. It’s coarse and rough and irritating, and it gets everywhere. Yes, I just quoted Anakin Skywalker. But back to the point, let me talk about my memory. I was at the beach with my colleagues. I could identify the two of them, August and Reinhard. There was another guy with us but I can’t identify him and he was somewhat far away. He happened to be distracted by the sand. He appeared like he was picking up seashells. I couldn’t walk properly on the sand which just always irritated me and trust me, it still does. I only walk on sand with incredibly covered shoes on. Back to the memory, I almost fell on Reinhard(who looked really annoyed) at one point and he told August to let me lean on him(as in August) so that I’ll stop stumbling. Ugh, my feet hurt. No, August wasn’t annoyed at all, unlike Reinhard. In fact, he was smiling throughout everything because he knew quite well just how much I hated sand but wanted me to ‘experience the joy’ when it’s torture fo...
