I dream about fighting with my dad because I don’t want to go to school. What’s the point, I yell, they’re never gonna let me graduate! It’s December 24th, the universe keep sending me signs that I should look up a certain nonprofit. I finally do and read the story about a young man who dreamed of opening a bakery, invested money with the wrong crowd and was arrested. I manage to save his last creation, a cream snowman standing on a red table entirely made of chocolate. The cake has crumbled and the pieces are covered in cat hair, but I think it’s still salvageable and bring it home for Christmas.

It’s So Hard To Find A Nice Girlfriend
I dream that I’m at school and today assignment is watching a Harry Potter movie. During break I meet a girl in the bathroom who’s a bit flirty. She says she likes to shed her own skin, I think nothing of it. We exchange phone numbers. Later that day I see her peeling out her own skin layer by layer and it’s terrifying. I block her number.
I Picked The Cheapest Frame And Now I Have To Live With It
I have various dream, like it’s the first day of school (it’s September after all), I’m at the mall, I’m on a trip. Throughout each of them I eventually realize my new glasses are broken and I’m super happy about it.
Enough Of This Dream Pls
I dream that I quit high school because I’m too freaking old for that. Dad buys me a camera flash as encouragement.
I Wish That Were Me
I dream that my sister is flying to New York to get a film degree. She’s got a new camera that is better than mine, I’m jealous as hell but I’m trying not to show it. I even teach her a trick for stabilizing a shot without a gimbal.
We get to her classroom for the intro lesson and the professor points me to the students’ seats because I’m carrying my own camera like always, but I shake my head and I go sit with the other relatives. The whole thing is so bittersweet.
Familiar Faces
I dream that I’m back in high school, my dad is also there teaching and everyone hates him. My old classmate S. is mad at me because she thinks I skipped the line to the principal’s office (I didn’t). Inside I ask for s signed note excusing me for being late during all next week, the principal is kind of bemused about it. While I’m there I steal my dad’s report and later show it to him, he’s very depressed about his low rates so I tell him the story of a young girl named Harry Potter who had round glasses, brown hair and really big boobs.
The next day everybody looks really happy, it takes me a moment to realize it’s the last day of school and I feel really dumb, why did I ask for that principal’s note? All the students around me looks like children and I feel ancient. I meet with S. again, although I don’t recognize her at all. We go home under my umbrella, I tell her about my college experience and how I finally found my true calling: photography. I don’t know where we’re going, I simply follow her and we end up on the beach. I’m happy to take a few pictures before a hasty retreat since it’s way too hot, I tell S. to call me back in the fall when temps are more human.
Not Even Worth Taking Notes
I fall asleep and end up in the same familiar situation over and over, it’s legit a continuation of my day at this point, just the daily grind of things. This time it’s high school again, and I skip classes again.
I So Want Summer To Be Over
BI dream that I’m watching a (rather bad) teen movie when I recognize the place it was shot at: it’s the park near where I live! And you can even see my building behind it! I laugh because it’s supposed to be a magical place but I know the sad truth.
Then I dream that I find a phone in my room, I think it’s my sister’s at first but it’s not, it belongs to a stranger. How did it get here, did I pick it up by mistake? I’m late for school already and I don’t know what to do, should I wait for someone to call? More importantly, it’s raining and it’s October outside and I’m so relieved summer is over.
Snipsnipsnippets
I dream that grandma G. is alive and I’m at her place teaching her how to print from a computer. Then I dream that I’m babysitting a blond toddler, a butterfly gets in the room and she grabs it with her pudgy little hands, almost killing it. I also inevitable dream that it’s the first day of school and I don’t want to go, so many years have passed, all my classmates have grown up and moved on, and I’m still here.
Did I Know Her In A Past Life Or What
I dream about a girl attending a 1920s school for young women where everyone is wearing white dresses. She is secretly in love with a school mate, and her young brother is fighting in the war. The morning class takes place in a heated swimming pool with special underwater notebooks, but she’s too lovesick to join. In the evening the school holds a charity event where they sell cooking recipes via telephone, a famous actor arrives and steal the girls’ thunder.
