What did you dream about last night?

Rabbits. Somehow, I was cooking a rabbit covered in pastry. (?)

I had a dream that I was cleaning my house for a party and when it started, the cast of Jersey Shore showed up and I had to tell them all individually that I don't watch the show lol. It was awkward

I had a dream that, among other things, I cut off all my eyelashes. I meant to just trim them a tick but I was in such a fit ended up cuting off more than half the length (my eyelashes are really long). I wonder if that is projecting something or just a flashback since that did actually happen a few years ago.

I had several dreams last night that all surrounded me flunking out of school and never getting my degree. Stress much?

1. I dreamed I had to give my group presentation (the PowerPoint I was working on before bed) all by myself. The prof pelted me with questions, including describing the difference between poverty of speech and paucity of speech. I knew one of those didn't exist but I gave it my best shot. Not only did I describe poverty of thought instead of speech but, after I corrected myself, he yelled "NOPE! PAUCITY OF SPEECH DOESN'T EXIST! YOU FAIL!!" A trapdoor opened and I dropped through the floor. (ETA: I just looked this up and it actually DOES exist. I feel a little indignant knowing that, in my dream, I was right.)

2. I was Topanga Lawrence (I fell asleep to Boy Meets World last night) and I was a surgical intern. My mother was Ellis Grey who kept yelling at me to pick a specialty because all the other interns had. I frantically said I couldn't decide between neuro or cardio (while I was performing surgery in Topanga's skirt and pink cardigan) and she got right in my face and yelled "YOU'RE NOT HARDCORE ENOUGH FOR NEURO OR CARDIO!!" I kept crying and yelling "I am, I am!" but ended up botching the surgery and got kicked out of the program.

3. I was a student at Hogwarts and kept being confronted with a boggart that turned into Professor McGonagall (who looked just like my Personality Assessment professor), telling me I was failing everything. It made me so nervous, bursting in on all my classes that I couldn't concentrate on exams and I really did fail everything and was banished from the castle.

4. I woke up on my couch and looked at the clock to see that it was noon. I'd had so many nightmares that I'd overslept and missed my 9 o'clock class which requires you miss no more than one session (this is not true IRL, I'm allowed to miss 2 or 3). I already missed one two weeks ago so this was it--I failed that class which held me back a whole year before I could re-take it and all the courses for which it is a pre-requisite. When I realized what I'd done, I curled up in a ball and fell apart.

I finally woke up (actually on my couch, wearing the same PJs and in the 4th dream) and saw that I hadn't missed class but it was like 10 minutes before I should be leaving.

The professor (from the first dream) just gave us a speech on Monday about how he purposely scares us because "a healthy level of anxiety is encouraged." When I woke up this morning, I said out loud "Healthy level of anxiety my @$$." I can't believe I had ALL of these dreams IN THE SAME NIGHT. I have got to get a freaking grip.
