I would be tested - twice!

United States
June 1, 2020 7:42am CST
I leaned against the wall outside of the classroom, listening as the teacher gave us instructions. We were a new group of adults set to be tested, though no one knew exactly what for. The man from earlier crept his way towards me, and I tried not to notice. My best hope was to ignore him and hope he got the hint, but so far I was 0/4 in that regard. It became 0/5 as soon as the teacher told us we'd be paired up with whoever was next to us. I groaned, letting my displeasure be well known. The teacher spared me a glance, but the man wrapped an arm around me and kissed me on the head so the teacher turned away. We could not file into the classroom just yet, there were a group of other students finishing up their test. I turned around and slapped the man as soon as the teacher shut the classroom door behind her. "What part of leave me alone don't you understand??" A group of girls came to support me, putting distance between the man and myself. Another group made of men pushed the guy away, but it did no good. The door opened again, and the teacher beckoned us to come in and stand in our pairs. I tried to pair up with another guy, but the teacher had already written down who was paired with who and wouldn't let us switch. This was going to be a long day. [][][] Then I woke up, but not before more things happened. I can't recall this dream as much, and in all honesty I left some parts out that I did remember. I was the age I am now in the dream, and at the high school that I used to attend. [][][]

That's a weird dream. I can't really remember the dream I dreamed last night. I know it had to do with my uncle, a woman and a puzzle. I had a dream a few days ago of my mother was going to paint my room. (in reality my room is white, but in the dream it was blue.) She had written on the wall in white and taped up some bills on the wall. I was mad at her for doing that, then I woke up.

That sounds like a weird dream you had there. Have you been anxious about expenses lately? That's the only thing I could think of for such a weird scene.

@JESSY3236 Ah okay. Yes, it's fascinating how things like that can slip into our subconscious. I had a long conversation a few days ago about thrifting and ended up dreaming that I was doing to stores and getting great deals. KInd of a bummer to wake up to nothing of the sort.

@ScribbledAdNauseum no. I think it was because my mother got a bill in my mailbox and it slipped in my dream.

Most of the time I hate my dreams about school and work. They are very stressful. Usually in school I NEVER have the list of classes that I need to go to, I can't remember my locker combination; and I'm always late to class. Nothing like it actually was in school, but stressful nonetheless.

Oh yes, those are the types of things that happen to me. I get lost in the school, or a horrible tornado comes up. The worst are when I'm on my way home but seem to get lost then! The dream last night was tame in comparison to some!

I don't take much stock in dreams as they can be quite crappy. Only when they remind me of something I forgot do I pay attention. Most of my dreams at school have me there without shoes on which is weird as I always had shoes to wear growing up. How did you get the interesting symbol there? [][] never mind.

I tend to pay attention to my dreams, but not all of them. Dreams about school tend to be anxiety inducing for me. I've had dreams where I was lost at them, stuck during a tornado, or even some where the school is a mall. yes it's just [ and ] but put in bold.

Woww. Hmm, some dreams are just.... We'll wake up asking yourself what at all does this mean.

Yes, I find that I ask myself that quite a lot.
