Homework Assginment ...

Mama's Losing It has moved the day to do our blogging "homework" to Thursday, which is fine by me. The assignment I chose today is an interesting one - I'm sure that Freud would have a field day with me. The question I chose is: Do you have reoccurring dreams? What are they about?

I often have a dream that I'm back in college, or even high school sometimes. On the surface, it's not really that scary - I actually enjoyed high school and college for the most part. However, in these dreams, I often either forget how to get to my class OR I realize that I inadvertently forgot about a class on my schedule. I spend the entire dream trying to figure out where the heck my classes are - it's kind of frustrating.

The funny part is that I know where I am (my college or high school), but the place doesn't look anything like the actual campus. And, I'm usually running from building to building, or from floor to floor, trying to find the room I'm supposed to be in ... I usually don't find the room for the most part, unfortunately.

When I do find the room, I have to explain to the professor why I hadn't been attending class - usually, it's because I couldn't find the room, or I didn't realize the class was on my schedule. I'm sure there's some sort of weird psychological explanation for this, but I'd rather not hear it (What I don't know won't kill me ...).

I have those exact same dreams.

I also often dream that I'm at a radio station, I have to be on the air in 30 seconds, and the door to the studio is locked so I can't get in.

And then dead air happens.

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

I think everyone should critique your dream.

It means you are afraid of failure...and that you are insecure with the status of your current relationship...

Your welcome.

And I like your idea of awarding the best blog entries...maybe we'll have a class vote on it.

Gosh, Mama's Losin It is a rough critique! I will say ummm your confused on where you want to go in your life!?! Lol....who knows, I have had dreams like that before too, I usually just chuck it up to a weird dream. The end.

Rhonda said...

Nope. I just think that your dreams mean that school is a lost cause. Or perhaps that you never quite connected in school, and walked around feeling quite lost much of the time.

I know that feeling.

Isn't it funny that you asked for no translation of your dreams, but it's only the guy who actually listened?

Girls always have to blab, blab, blab. lol

LOL dreams are funny...I think there's a part of me that would be fasinated to find out what some of them really mean...hmmm...

tiarastantrums said...

that's funny - I guess you worry about being late too much!!

Solei said...

LOL @ Rhonda... she has a point!
So I will listen and try NOT to dissect your dream. And I totally agree with you, What you don't know can't hurt ya!

Diane said...

I have the very same dreams... and I often wind up showing up only to find out we're having a test on stuff I clearly know NOTHING about (which is, now that I think about it, a lot like my waking life). I hate it. I wake up feeling all anxious.

Yeah, I think Freud WOULD have fun with your brain. BTW, the progression of Michael Jackson to Yoda is hilarious!!

Melanie Dickens said...

I agree with Tabi, it's the whole trouble deciding which way to go in your life. Pay attention and see if you have that dream when you have decisions to make.

I always dream that it's gameday and I'm late to the stadium, and I'm rushing to get my pads on. It's a good dream, cuz it's gameday, but bad cuz I'm late, and late players don't go into the game right away, if at all.

Lol! That was great, gave me a good laugh! I've had dreams where I show up at school in my pajamas, now that's really embarrassing!

I have a dream similar to that but it's more realistic in that I skipped it the whole semester and now I am screwed.

artkdz said...

I used to dream that I was back in school too all the time. I haven't actually had it in a while - wonder what that means.

minijonb said...

funny, i logged on to get away from homework.

Cindy said...

I have had the same dream many, many times. I dream that I'm back in highschool and it's so terrible because I can't find a way to the roof so I can jump off! I hated highschool!

wet dreams are the bestest

Kristin said...

I never dream about high school.

But I do dream about George Clooney.

Jeff said...

I'm just glad that you only mentioned the dreams fit for public viewing.

Oh my goodness. I forgot I have that dream too! I listed three in my homework assignment. I must dream more than I thought.
