Lucid 101

So it started with me waiting in a jeep that was mine. I was killing time thinking about different things while waiting for my ride to come. The Jeep was outside this College faculty building that looked like a car garage. I ended up going inside and standing with a bunch of people at the door. A teacher (Mr.Tonn from high school) left and then he came back in through the door but since we were all crowded near the door he said “I thought you were all going to go outside to the car”. So that’s when I left to go outside back the car to put something inside. That’s when Lynn came and got into the drivers side. Right after that I noticed that Mr.Tonn was also seated in the back seat.

We were driving away in this long stretch of road and somebody made a left turn at a stop sign without stopping. When I noticed Lynn told me that there was people protesting the highway signs at OUC that day. So when we drove by the stop signs we went really really fast. But then as an after thought to one of the stop signs Lynn decided to slam on her breaks. That’s when my upper body went flying forward and down into my lap. When I looked up and looked back Mr.Tonn had been thrown from the vehicle and there was a bunch of people witnessing the scene. I was going to mention something to Lynn so when the cops questioned us we would have a consistent story, but I was too frantic to mention anything. I got out of the Jeep and quickly ran down the road to the scene. There was blood on the ground.

Then instantly somehow there was an ambulance. I knew that he must be in the ambulance so I went up to the open door. There was a paramedic lady sitting in the front seat. She was talking but her voice sounded all scrambled like a machine. There was a layer of the cloth from the backseat area (where I was looking in) separating to the front cab area. I figured that it was some sort of special material to scatter voices. (No idea why..).

So anyways instantly I’m still at College but it’s a different day. I’m looking across this campus courtyard area and I see Mr.Tonn walking, alive, and perfectly fine. So I yell up to him and say “Hi”. He comes up and he’s caring these leather type boxes. Because I felt guilty for killing him, I offered to help him carry the boxes. I had no idea why he was alive, but it was great to see him well again. He said to me “I’m trying to learn the music”. With a strange look I decided to open the box that I was carrying for him. Inside there was a music box playing this tune. I was confused by what he ment when he wanted to learn it. I asked him “What are you doing to play the music on? Which instrument?”. He kind of smirked and said “No, I want to learn the cords.” I kind of shrugged in a “why” kind of way and he said “Ya, I know I could just buy them hey?” I agreed. This whole time we were walking towards his office and ended up downstairs in this “cavern” feeling type room. He then showed me an oil lamp shade that one of his friends had made. I took this small lighter that Mr.Tonn was playing with and put it inside underneath the lampshade to light it up. We were discussing how bright the light would have to be because the shade was frosted so much light wasn’t getting through. Just after then I realized that I was dreaming. I had an urge to try and wake myself up. Everything seemed so real though, could I do it? So the other man that was in the room with us was somehow lying with his back on this table. So I got up on the table and got over him and I swung my arm back (I knew that I would defiantly wake up if it were in fact a dream (I felt apprehensive too, what if it wasn’t a dream?)) to punch him in the face. As my arm when all the way back as far as it could go that’s when I woke up in my bed.
