I would agree - it all sounds like pretty typical dream stuff to me. Celebrities, trains and tunnels, oceans, mansions…
Jumping from tree to tree is also very normal dream stuff. That's one of my favorite things about dreams, the crazy ways we get around in some of them. Some of my personal favorites include standing on a street and holding my hands out in front of me like I'm holding an invisible towrope for waterskiing, and suddenly I'm being pulled forward fast enough to keep up with cars on the highway, ad I can steer myself however I want. Or the time I was sitting in a swing and reached up with both hands and unhooked the chains but was able to hold myself up somehow, and by pulling up I could fly around and steer by pulling harder on the left or right chain. Fun stuff! I've also done the jumping from tree to tree thing, and then I had a super long pole for pole vaulting but for some reason I could only put it down on treestumps, and each time I pushed off I'd sail like a hundred feet through the air.
When the guy talked to you about the fact that you were dreaming, you may have been very close to becoming lucid. Often that happens when a dream character tells you you're in a dream (though all too often they tell you that but it fails to raise your awareness and you have to laugh when you wake up and realize what a perfect clue you missed).
One thing I noticed but I don't know if it has any significance (because you were never riding in a train) - trains could represent modes of conveyance where there is no control - they're already pre-set and run on a track. Its pretty common for students to dream about not being in control of their lives - because they aren't, and by late high school or college age they're starting to get irritated about it and thinking about the future when they will be free to make their own choices but also have to bear full responsibility for that.
