Growling

<PERSON>-lucid I am in my school's drama studio. It is a large, open grey space, with blackout curtains and lights everywhere. There are tables set out in it. There seems to be a cliff at one end. A boy I do not know stands on the edge. The people of my class watch, silently. I look over the edge of the cliff and see a clouded, rushing river. I turn to the boy; "Are you going to jump or what?" I ask impatiently. He shrugs. I leap off the edge. I land in the river. It is muddier than I thought. I climb out, and make my way back up to the studio. When I get to the top -a dank smell clinging to my hair and dripping wet- there is a woman at the door. She says I have a piano lesson. Oops, I forgot about that. I grab my bag and make my way to my practice room, seating myself on the stool. Three women are cramped into he room. One has red hair, and sits quietly. The other two look old and stern. "I am taking this lesson today." Says one of the women. "Where is your music?" I take my folder of music sheets from my bag. Taking them out, I realise in anger that they are the wrong ones. One is called "Po Po" and the other "The log". "I do not have them, but I can play them from memory." The woman scowls. "Well that is not good enough! Sit down right now!" I sit. This is usually around the time when I look uninterested in what the teacher is saying. A surefire way to piss them off. So I hold my hand up, inspecting my nails, picking bits of dirt out of them. As expected, this angers the woman. She leaves for a moment. I decide that she is a grouchy cow and I am not putting up with it. "Listen, pal. My piano teacher's a bit of a bitch as it is. I do not need you, someone I do not even know, coming in here and nagging at me. Especially when, let us face it, I can play all my pieces and this lesson lasts half an hour." I snarl when the woman gets back. I smile at the red haired girl. "I am guessing you are a student, who is working with this old hag. I do not envy you, love." The old womans face grows red with anger. She is truely furious. I hold in a laugh. "You have a severe attitude problem young lady. Get out of this room." I leave, looking around to find my music teacher. When I find her, she smiles sympathetically. Something hits me. With horror, I realise those people were my examinars. "You sent them to have a lesson with me? Why did not you tell me!?" My back slides down the wall, and I huddle down, crying. I have well and truely screwed up my exam. I am guessing this dream came from the fact that I have my music exam next week () and I do not feel totally prepared. Also that I hate my piano teacher, she is a bit of an impatient bitch and I would absolutely love to tell her. I refrain myself though...

Has this happened to you?

Write it down while you still remember the details. We will look for the others.

Tell us what you saw

Know someone this happened to?

If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
