The dream always starts he same way. The project has been completed early and in depth my whole mark for the year is resting on this one essay that had to be started within the first month of high school and handed in the last day of school. The details are not important, but the project itself was the result of all my spare time for months and is equal to a masters thesis. I hand it in and expect that I will only get 70% on it. When I finish handing it in I start to panic.
The similar essay for history and math have not been completed and that means I am going to fail.
I wake up and tell myself that I can do it over Christmas. Then when I calm down I tell myself it was just a dream, I have been out of high school for over twenty years, it was just a dream.
Almost as bad as the dream where I forget to go to math class for a whole semester and I am going to have to repeat my year because of it.
