Only In Dreams

March 30, 2008

Weird dream again.  I am late writing this, so the details are fuzzy.  Let’s see.  There are three kinda episodes to this one.  I don’t know which of the first two came first, so…I’ll start with the school.

I was going to school, I think, and I was there for a while.  Then I must have left and come back the next day, but for some reason we had to go to a different building with different people.  And Ashton Kutcher was one of our teachers, but he had changed his last name.  And the building was in Japan.  But it didn’t look Japanese at all.  And there were all these signs saying where classes would be held, but I wasn’t sure if I had the same class schedule for some reason, so I missed most of my first class (which was Biology for some reason) because I was timid and wouldn’t ask anyone how to get there.  Then all of a sudden, I found my class, and they were digging up dead bodies to make a Frankenstien-esque monster.  Which I thought was super weird, so I left.  I also thought the class was over, so I wandered around a little and suddenly I was in my grade school and I still couldn’t find my classes.  Then I found out that Bio wasn’t over yet, and I went back just as the bell rang and apologized to my teacher, who was really okay with it.  Then I think I went to Gov., but they just played guitar or something.  Not sure.  I can’t even remember who was there or why I remember a guitar…because I don’t distinctly recall that happening.  Anyway.

Second episode is short, I was in some dark hallway (dark wood, lit by candles, weird stuff) and someone had a cold in the building…and some person was taking care of us (no, I don’t know who “us” encompasses) and they were going to give them a cure for the cold by putting medicine in saline and rinsing contacts with it, then they had the person put the contacts in.  But that didn’t work for some reason.  Then I got a cold, but I couldn’t take the drug because I can’t put contacts in.

Yeah, then there’s the last segment, where I was wandering around with prom date and Frodo (as mentioned in previous journal).  We went to some building, like a big hotel, but there were no doors and all these people from my school were roaming the halls drunkenly, dressed in silly outfits and doing absurdly inappropriate things.  So we walked around awkwardly for a while, then I told Frodo I wanted to leave because I didn’t like it there, so we all decided to go to Danielle’s house (believe it or not, I know why my mind picked Danielle…even though I don’t know what her house looks like).  So we went to this big, open room.  It had super high ceilings and kinda looked like the Lodge only with less of the wood beams showing and a lot of white lighting and grey walls.  And the floor had the gross carpet from McEleney hall.  And there was this dinky piano in the middle of the room (which had two levels to it, for some reason).  So I talked to prom date and played piano.  And eventually Frodo came over.  But that’s about all I remember.

What the heck, dreams?  Feel like centering on some crucial issue in my life much?

Anyway.  Spring Break is over starting…in an hour and two minutes from now.  And I beat Zelda: Phantom Hourglass just in time!  Party party!  ♥

That’s all for today.

Alright, why not?

March 26, 2008

Man, I have the weirdest dreams sometimes.  Last night, I dreamt that I was going on a trip somewhere.  I don’t remember where it was, except that it involved a ton of my friends and a ton of people I didn’t know very well.  And a certain someone we’ll call Frodo was there.  So after this random trip, at night, we all…went to a hotel.  Like one of those hotels where all the doors to the rooms face outward and there are balconies.  Not like a new hotel.  Anyway.  We all went to the hotel, but instead of going inside, a bunch of us just sorta…decided to go to a cast party type thing.  For some reason.  I didn’t know how to get there because I didn’t even KNOW the person hosting it, so I decided to follow Frodo.  However, we somehow ended up at my house.  No idea.  Anyway, we went inside and talked to my mom, but Frodo kept hanging out really close to me and he, like, rested his head on mine while I was talking with my mom.  I actually recoiled out from under his head and scooted over.

Then I thought he was mad at me or something, and even though he was being annoying, he’s still my friend and I needed directions to the cast party.  Sooo I dunno, I couldn’t tell if he was mad, but he said he’d let me follow him to the party.  And yeah.

Okay, next, we were suddenly at school.  But our school was laid out all crazy-like.  And for some reason, it was the Friday before Prom and we were all at school in our outfits.  And our schedules were crazy, too.  Like, fourth period involved doing SOMETHING for Prom.  But I kept skipping classes and hanging out in the halls, talking to TEACHERS.  And I really wanted to talk with my date for Prom (because, believe it or not, I like talking to him), but I kept running into Frodo, who wouldn’t leave me alone and kept, like, rubbing my back.  And I never did get to talk to my date.

Oh, and then I went outside (and the school was located someplace other than where it actually resides) and was talking to Seth, and we were just walking around.  I guess I wasn’t paying attention to where we were, because I know we passed the playground/parking lot of St. Paul’s school…and then we were going the opposite direction for some reason, and we passed the front of St. Paul’s, where a bunch of juniors/seniors (including my date) were hanging out.  And I wanted to go talk to them, but I think I was too scared or something.  Then we went into St. Paul’s, and I got really frustrated and was like, “WTF, how did we get to St. Paul’s???”

And then some weird thing happened and we had a class that I finally attended, but it involved Grace and…some kind of video-game-level-type place and a water slide layout with Aztec designs.  Which came out of NOWHERE.

I was SUPER relieved when I found out it was just a dream.  For some reason, it didn’t register that it wasn’t real until I actually fully woke up (I woke up a few times, but I kept falling asleep again).  I reeeally don’t want Frodo to be that clingy.  Mostly because it’d be annoying.

Anyway.  No updates.  Wait, yes, updates.  I have a date for Prom!  It is boy mentioned earlier in journal posts before I started dating…uhhhh, boy whichever number.  XD  I forget.  Not Seth (with whom I am still remarkably excellent friends, which is kinda awesome).  He asked me in quite possibly the cutest way EVER.  Even if I hadn’t already wanted to go with him, I don’t think I could have turned him down after he sang me a song.  ♥  So officially, I have moved on.  Things are looking good.

Oh, and Godspell was MARVELOUS.  We performed four excellent shows, then they liked the show so much (plus it was about Jesus plus the crucifixion) that they let us perform it on Good Friday instead of Stations of the Cross.  So we got to have a hilarious pick-up rehearsal (slap fight = win) plus a fifth performance.  The show was truly a blast, nothing like I expected.  And we still haven’t let go, by the by.  Yesterday four of us performed a reenactment of the show in the courtyard of our school.  …Yes, it’s Spring Break.  We know.

Oh, and I made my college decision!  I have chosen UNI.  It isn’t that I don’t love SCAD…it’s just that I don’t think I could handle being that far from home.  I seem to be so much happier having made the decision to go to UNI, so it must be the right one for now.  And my parents are being very flexible and say I can switch schools if I really want to do so…or I could go to graduate school at SCAD.  So it’s an all-around good situation.  (Plus I think I get to graduate with no debt!  Win!  Yay parents and scholarships!)

Alright, that’s all for now.  I mostly wanted to get that dream written down.  It was a little horrifyingly annoying.  Anyway.  Good times to be had otherwise.
