another weird dream

perhaps inspired by my degree claims, I had a freaky weird dream last night. It consisted of 3 parts:

1. So I'm at what I guess is the UofA, and they assign us all into different groups, probably of 12 or 16 people. The group I was in was doing something I had no input in, let alone no one would clue me in on what even the assignment was or what we were working on. I tried to ask, but they kept ignoring me. Somebody kept saying "Engineer" a lot.

2. Then I'm at some school that I associated as UHS (though it clearly wasn't) for some kind of class reunion party. Zach Raves' band was playing some set, but I headed over to the volleyball courts, and no one would let me in. The one time the volleyball landed by me off the court as I tried to hit it back it wound up going in reverse.

Now for the weird part.

2 (continued). SO I head back to where the music was playing and I spot this treehouse type of building. I head inside, and there's this GOth/Satanic-like shrine in the corner. I looked at it for like 2 seconds, but got disgusted by the images and all the redness. The room was maroon. Suddenly I hear what sounds like a young baby crying. I turn around, and I see Ms. Balzer reading a book. She looked upset the first time I saw her but then she looked fine after a double take. She showed me this book she was reading; it was about animals, and it was one of those dual sided books, you know, if you go to the back cover it's actually a different book. So the first side was about basic, common animals: cats, ducks, and I distinctively remember seeing a hamster picture. Then she flipped it around and it was about all of these rare, obscure, unknown animals that have no other name besides their scientific designation. Then the music from outside ends and one guy dressed in all black was apparently looking for me. He asked me to put my finger of the back of a suction cup that he was taking out of his pocket as he spoke. It looked clean and unmarked, so I did so. Then he squeezed my finger into it a little more for a fingerprint or something, and this other lady whom I hadn't noticed before started laughing. Afterwards I get out and start looking for a car.

3. I'm with my mom in some sort of parking garage. She says she doesn't feel well and wants me to go get her some McDonalds. So I get out an next thing I know I'm at some sort of fancy looking food court with a McDonalds at the far end. So I'm squeezing thorugh all these tables and stuff trying to get to Mockey D's and I notice A LOT of people from school, just all over sitting and chatting. Then I'm at a corner and I can't remember for the sake of me which way I was going or what direction I was coming from. So I make my way thorugh a bunch of tables when I see all the UHS alum and I realize that I'm back where I started at. SO I make my way AGAIN through the plethora of chairs and tables and make my way to the McDonalds. They have a little Chinese girl on the intercom, suposedly looking for her parents cause she sounded upset, that's my best guess at least cuz she was speaking in chinese. So at last I make it to the counter and the cashier guy is trying to deuce me into getting two drinks because of the super cool contest they had. But I said no and just ordered a chicken sandwich combo, but I can't recall if I was buying it for my mom or myself. The gu really wanted me to buy a 46 oz. drink.

So yeah, see what summer vacation does to me? I've already got cabin fever, no thanks to you people :!) Somebody, please make headway of this.
