LJ – Math Dream

From 9/16/1999


Mathematics. I had dreamed that I was in a high level mathematics class and that I had aced the test except for the very last questions which I could not answer for the life of me because I had no clue what the subject matter was it was that complicated. The odd flow of the dream was that the professor had put the solutions up on the blackboard just as he expected to see from us however after seeing these I still could not solve the problems. After a while I found that the solutions were washing away of their own accord and near the end I left the last question half-finished. When I looked beneath my desk I found most of the blankets that I had used to cover myself the night before hanging beneath me. When I went to collect them a big clear plastic bag appeared and I put all my blankets in the clear plastic bag. For some reason this wasn’t a surprise to anyone and I had planned on going home anyways. The dream fell apart when I began to involuntarily drift out of the dream and wake up.
