Seriously. I am failing math class. The only thing is, I haven’t been in a math class since 1995.
Okay, to be more clear, I have a recurring dream that I am failing math class. It happens, I don’t know, a few times a year, but often enough to make me wonder: Why, of all things, do I keep dreaming about this?
The dream is of me almost always in high school or college (but everything is ‘different’ – you know how dreams are). And at some point in the dream I realize that I haven’t been to math class recently and I’m falling behind, and may not even remember where the classroom is and might get lost trying to find it (sometimes I make it only to realize I have no idea what’s going on). Other silly things happen in the dream, usually different and weird things, but that’s not unusual.
I have no bad memories of math class and I can’t for the life of me understand why I dream of this, but it happens. I suppose there are worse things. You know, like failing psychology.
