There I was. On a beach. I was with ~100 of my closest friends: Claudia Walsh and Devorah Lazar¹ (youtubers), all my real life best friends, all the boys I had crushes on in high school (hi matt) (lol but matt who? that's the question), and more. Not sure why, but we got there via a greyhound-bus-style party bus. We were having a massive party and getting in all kinds of trouble with each other. Bonfires, drinking, games and contests, food, swimming... Kind of odd that we chose the spot on the beach right next to our school (that felt like a high school but was actually our college²)... We all owned two phones, an iPhone and a flip phone???, but somehow lost them or they were dead³. If you're wanting a kind of visual representation of how good of friends we all were and how excited and happy we were please refer to this tiktok.
We party way, way into the night⁴ and then the next day is apparently the first day of school, and none of us knew. So we went into the school directly from the beach the next morning and tried to figure out where we were supposed to be. We were all hungover, partially clothed, none of us had any working phones... it was chaotic to say the least. We're all running all over the place and then it hit me -- I'm gonna miss my sister's first day of college 🥺 I didn't come home the night before and I didn't get to wish her good luck or show her around or find out what her classes were or anything, and I was pretty bummed about it - not to mention my lack of phone to text or call her.
I'm stumbling around with everyone else trying to find the classroom I'm supposed to be in by asking every teacher in every room. I eventually get to Jane Lynch's room (yes, the gym teacher from Glee) and ask if I'm supposed to be there. She asks my name and says no, but I should stay anyway because she knows I'll like it. I asked what class it is and she says something about basketball⁵... I was like 'no, that's okay, I'm not a huge basketball fan and I also have absolutely no idea how it works' but she pulled me into the class and kicked someone out so I could have somewhere to sit among the 6 other people.
Guess who I was seated next to???? The one and only Donna Pinciotti (yes, Donna from That 70s Show). We were instructed to take notes copying what the prof was putting on the board. We had to write HELL a few times on our paper and then connect the lines and it created the illusion of a basketball in a closed net, which apparently was so important it had to be the first lesson we were taught in this class... You know that feeling in a dream where the dream makes NO sense but you still go with it but it makes sense in the dream? That's how I felt about these notes. I vaguely remember that HELL was an acronym for something, but I don't remember what. Remember, I don't basketball in any shape or form lmao 🤷🏻♀️
¹ Devorah and Claudia must have ended up in my dream because I ended up watching their ig stories before bed??
² I think it felt like high school and not college because I was with all the people I knew in high school, and also because my sister graduated high school last year and is going into college this fall, which is a big step and very exciting.
³ I don't know why we all had flip phones, but I think they were all dead because my phone in real life was dying all night because I was too lazy to go downstairs to retrieve my charger. Also, that much partying will kill your phone ;)
⁴ I specifically remember the beach scenes being at nighttime because of bonfires and the presence of the moon, and I think that's because I kept waking up via alarm between the hours of 4 and 6 to check if I could see the lunar eclipse last night. I couldn't, because as always, the clouds come in right when those things happen.
⁵ Not a damn clue why I dreamt about Jane Lynch, Donna, and basketball... my best guess is because I follow ESPN on instagram, but I don't think I saw anything from them last night before bed.......??
It's been a hot minute since my last dream, and it didn't disappoint. Please someone hook me up to computers to analyze this shit. Or find a way to visualize it the way I see it in my head... these are fantastical dreams and I must know why and the meanings of it!
xx,
