Thread: Getting Lost At School

I still have these types of dreams. I'm always back in my old high school and,
a) I can't remember my locker combination
b) I can't remember what class I have next
c) I'm late to class
d) I bring the wrong books to class

It's been almost 10 years since I've set foot in that school and I'm still having these dreams. I never had them about my college courses - only high school. Weird.

I also have had many of these dreams.

I have the a, b, and c on Burn's list with a couple of different ones added:

1. It is the end of the semester and I realize that I have never gone to class or done any homework and am definitely not ready for the final.

2. (Since I was in Marching Band) I am about to go out and do a field show and I don't know the music or show. In fact, I don't even remember how to play the saxophone or trumpet.

3. Being an adult I now have the dream that I am the teacher and am supposed to be teaching a class and have no idea what it is that I am supposed to be teaching or where or when the class is.

Funny thing is I was talking to my mom about this not long ago, and she still has these dreams, and it has been a long time since she has been in school. This means that we will probably have these dreams til we die.

I also dream a lot about school time. The primary school mostly. It's probably the time when our mentality and the vision of world is the most vulnerable to outter attacks. We snapped everything those days like little sharks. There was a lot of fun in that period, but even if I could, I wouldn't come back to it. Too infantile and unmatured.
