Singing cockroach
I'm home (home being an amalgamation of several places I've lived), chasing a cockroach around. I finally catch up to it and stomp on it, but it survives and limps off. I corner it. Then, the cockroach looks at me and starts singing.
Its voice is absolutely angelic. It was the most beautiful thing I've ever heard, or at least it felt that way in the dream. I can see intelligence in its eyes, or at least a definite presence.
Then I woke up. And I've actually been feeling guilty in real life for hours over stepping on a cockroach in a dream
What could this have been about? I guess the obvious interpretation is that it's about someone I've wronged, but I can't think who.

Snake bite
Hey! I just had a quick question about a part of a dream I had.
I was at a ‘work’ function but it was being held in a really dark boiler type room. I was with people who are more affiliated with a school vibe and with our safety supervisor; she was giving demos on using different safety equipment but she kept using the safety tools incorrectly. Then a bunch of people started screaming because there was a cockroach and they needed me to come take care of it (I’m the big person so people ask me to get rid of them all the time). I decided to ignore them even as a few more cockroach came out from a crack somewhere and were crawling on the floor in the same area. After the cocockroachhing, the safety sup started freaking out about a snake coming out of a different wall. The snake was mostly yellow with very light orange and white striping. I went over to relocate the snake but it kept trying to crawl into my right boot (the midsole was peeling off so it was more under my foot and only my right boot was broken). I tried to grab the snake nicely, but it was proving too difficult so I tried to step on its head so I could grab it on the nape of its neck and throw it outside. It’s head kept flattening under my boot as i lightly stepped on it (didn’t want to kill the thing) so it was impossible to grab it, so I sorta just committed lot the stepping part and was able to pick the snake up and take it out side. While I was carrying the snake it’s mouth was gaping and I could see venomous fangs in its mouth and my inclination is ‘don’t bite me, please don’t bite me’. Then when it came time to throw the snake I decided I was going to hold its tail, let go of the head, the throw the snake via its tail. I second guessed this method because I didn’t want the snake to have the opportunity to bite me after I let go. I decided against my gut and I let go of the head and the snake immediately bit me in my right hand (the hand I was holding the snake head in). I pried the snake off and threw it into the bushes. Then I looked at my wound. I could see that there was no blood but I could see white ‘venom’ in the small bite wounds. I tried to squeeze it out but nothing happened, so I sucked the venom out (or most of it at least) and it instantly made my mouth thick with a cloudy, thick substance. Think egg whites almost but like really sticky, hard to spit out and that they filled my mouth to the point where I almost had issues breathing. I spit out about 4-5 mouthfuls and my friend (who suddenly appears) makes a comment about how thick the substance is or something along the lines. Then I explain to her that when snake venom hits blood it coagulates and that’s how it kills you. Then I asked her if we could go to the hospital.
The whole time I was pretty unbothered and I was never scared. Very indifferent...
Could some one help me with this interpretation?

Intense puking dream
It was really dark but in the morning. I just kept puking an indefinable mass full of black, living cockroaches. But I thought of them as bugs, bugs who were bugging devices at the same time. And they sometimes looked at me with their tiny eyes. Someone had put those bugging devices inside me. And the bugging devices now had left my body. I was reliefed but also a bit scared by the cockroaches, even though they did nothing except looking at me from time to time and move their antennas.
