The recurring dream-mares (they're more disconcerting dreams than actual nightmares) always place me in an educational institution, either secondary school or university. Mostly the dreams occur at university, where I seem to be doing a Science degree, even though I already have a Science degree - both in the logic of the dream and in real life. Sometimes I show up to lectures, sometimes I don't. Rarely do I do any study or homework. Practical experience - laboratory, field work - isn't required. Occasionally I attend a lecture that isn't part of my syllabus. In one particularly frustrating variation of the dream-mare, I adamantly refuse to attend any mathematics lectures/tutorials, but I do take the final exam which - surprise, surprise - I completely fail. My most recent educational dream-mare incarnation placed me in a lecture in which I not only had a notebook with no blank pages left (making it very hard to take lecture notes) BUT the lecture made no sense. It was all words, words, blah, blah, incoherency, more words, something cryptic, blah. Blah.
That Dream Weaver is one sick, sad, sadistic weaver.
