A Random Dream

Tonight I dreamt that I handed in all my assignments. As having assignments sorted were not enough, I found myself going to Hawaii with my course to celebrate.

Details I can remember from the dream are:

I had 20 minutes to departure when I still had not left home. I realised that by the time I got to the airport, there would be no time to check in hold baggage. I decided to walk to the airport, as this was quicker than taking a taxi. As I had no idea how long we were going to be in Hawaii, I thought I could buy more underwear and socks when we got there. After all, how pricey could things be in Hawaii?

Therefore, I brought hand baggage only. I met Shannon from my course at the check-in desks. Apparently, I did not walk to the airport. I teleported.

Walking on a long gravel path, outside the airport to the departure gates, I could not keep up with Shannon. Later, she kindly stopped, and I gave some explanation (shoelaces) to my lack of pace.

Then something happened, and I am not sure whether it had to do with this Hawaii trip. I am sitting on a Scandinavian Airlines flight to somewhere. A blonde girl, whom I have never seen before, is sitting just across the aisle.

“This is soo boring, do you have anything to read”, she says addressing me.
“Of course I do”, I say, giving her all books and magazines from my carry-on suitcase.

“Do you speak Swedish?”, I ask her in Swedish
“Huh?”, she says.

I took that as a ‘no’ and then she continued:

“Do you get food on this flight?”
“No,” I say, “you don’t get food on any SAS flights these days.”

After that, we went on a rant how poor it is when you do not get in-flight meals.

Then I woke up, shocked that I never asked to get my books back. Then realising it was only a dream.


Notes
1. I am very optimistic about time, but not as optimistic as portrayed in this dream.
2. I am surprised I woke up concerned about my books.
3. In real life, bringing underwear would get priority over books.


A few questions need answers:

Q1: Did Shannon and the rest of our course ever get to Hawaii?

Q2: Can anybody teach me teleporting? It obviously works terrific in dreams.

Q3: Why was I not told about the duration of our Hawaii trip?

Q4: Why on Earth was I put on a SAS flight (destination unknown) with a random girl nicking my books?

Q5: Why did I give her ALL my books?

Please put your thoughts as comments (either on the blog or at Facebook where this post is imported) – any input is valuable, as I doubt anybody has All the Answers. I wish you all a pleasant start to 2009!
