Seeing a leek in a dream only means you're hungry :3
I don't believe in dreams meaning anything. Look up one dream on the internet, and different sites will say completely different, sometimes even conflicting things.
I sometimes dream of my teeth either falling off or disintegrating. Sometimes even instantly regrowing, only to fall off again. Got nothing worth anything from the internet. It's probably just some subconscious fear of losing them.

Ok, the maps geometry is broken, textures rotated badly, bad textures, you are not using null nor bevel, nor any kind of optimization process. You are also using the default compiler. But ok, you're a beginner, so here are some tips.
1. When you map, use null or bevel to remove object faces from the game that the player wont naturally be able to see (roof, bottom of the floor, between wall joints) 2. Use the texture apply tool to rotate and mod the textures 3. Dont use carve 4. Practice vertex manipulation more and search for bad parts in the map 5. Keep in mind and focus on actually sizes and atmosphere around the player
6. Keep practicing and always have fun when mapping. Everything you make is an addition to your experience. If you make a bad map, doesnt matter, finish it. It will just improve your skill. Also don't ignore critiques, they will help you improve and point you to what could be changed/improved.

A classic style CS map, back where there were no fancy textures or external components. I liked this map, it was like a trip to the past, really put a smile on my face.
But, judging this map from aspects of game play and looks wouldn't be quite logical. The game play is ok to some level, but its not perfect. I will give you 4 starts for effort. Keep on mapping

lol...OH! SUDDEN REALISATION OF GREAT TRUTH!
Last night, I fired up the CS:GO SDK and start mapping with Source. I always said that as soon as the tools were available for CS:GO I would sit down and learn Source mapping.
My life IS moving on! It's moving AWAY from GoldSource mapping!!

Googled "dream meanings" and came to dreammoods.com. I rarely buy into this kinda stuff, but the one regarding leaks really hit home.
Hmmm... I wonder if there is a meaning behind seeing a leek in your dream.
Yup. "To see a leek in your dream symbolizes victory and protection"
Before anyone else thinks of it, I also looked up "spinning" which represents confusion or a sense of loosing control. So dreaming of leek spinning means you're out of control, victorious, you feel protected, but are confused by this.

Dreams are usually information processing by the brain. You dream of what you've seen and what has left a certain emotional impact on you, subliminally or Consciously.
I used to have dreams i remember, but rarely now. Probably because when i go to sleep all i care about is waking up rested and think of it as nothing but a resting process.

You should focus on reducing poly count with various techniques.

Then we'll have some good ol' father-son battle.
You must do something about it soon D:
I know a guy who stopped mapping for GS, never seen him again, they said he had an accident...

HOOOOLY SHIRRRGHARGABARGLE!!!
Anyway I'm sure you don't have to sweat on it much, its probably dictating your life changing moments.
I'm sure it will turn out for the best
