Dreaming of English Class
Last night I've had what is an on going series of dreams. In the dream series, I am going about my life but continually I'm enrolled in a undergraduate level literature course that as it turns out, I keep forgetting to go to.
In the earliest of this series from several months ago, the 'semester' is beginning to end and then I suddenly realize that my transcript says I am in this literature class, but have never been to it. I don't even have the books.
Subsequent dreams in the series have involved other activities, like going to work, or heading off to the beach. But still, by the end of the dreams I realize that I have forgotten entirely about this literature course and that it will leave a blemish on my permenant transcript.
Last night's dream was no different. Some folks we all know were sitting around talking about their pending engagement parties. But then, I realize that I have a final exam for this literature course that I've never been to and that I have to read a semesters worth of books. Yikes. Why won't it stop? What does it mean?

Dude, I have the same dream! And I always wake up out of breath and panicky. I think that five years out of school it's about time I just let go of the damn grade stress already.
oh my god i have the same dream too. for me it is math class. did you hate english because i abhored math and it still makes me freak out at times. in my dream, i realize it during finals week and it is too late to drop so i have to get an A on the exam to get a D and pass in the class. usually, i won't graduate unless i pass this test in my dream. i hate this dream and i've been having it for eight years. i'm glad i'm not the only one- it makes me feel a little more normal.
Ian, you've got to start restricting who can leave comments.
