Extra Lives

[I remember bits, but I'm not 100% certain of the order.]

I try to draw a bust of a man way in the sky, but it ends up looking like a dog on a bike with a piece of straw in his mouth. I did the drawing with simple lines that just took shape on their own, but even my drawing was like something I'd do on paper - pretty amateur/broken-hand. The image turns into 3D and shifts slightly left and right, and other people are able to see it. A guy nearby talks to me about the bike-dog, but I don't remember what he said. I'm walking along an ocean-side promenade and I'm by a cafe. I was thinking how odd it was that my drawing of a man ended up looking like a dog on a bike, but I somehow explained it away. I continue walking along and I come to a swampy river that runs off to the left from the ocean. There are lots of spider webs and spider and I'm holding a flashlight and watching the spiders' eyes reflect back at me. [I was just telling a friend about this last night, so it's neat that it showed up in my dream.] A guy was with me, but he jumped into the water and I was worried that the spiders would water-skip towards him. They didn't. I continued following the swamp until it ended at a place where a lot of trash (left behind by children or washed up from the swamp) was collected. I found a discarded bundle of paper that was some girl's college paper. Her name was maybe Jennifer, and the paper was possibly about either religion or education.

Then I'm in a large, lit, underground cave and I'm around a table with my classmates. The teacher is walking around looking into our notebooks to see if we did a writing assignment. Everyone else had theirs, but I had forgotten to read the syllabus and I was kind of upset, but I realized it was only one assignment and it would make up a small percentage of my grade. I thought about trying to show the teacher some previous writing I had done to fool him, but decided against it. Mostly because I thought he would see through my BS.
