=== Dream: 'The Classroom' by Nutcracker === I'm in high school (as a student). I'm walking about anxiously, trying to find my next class. I wandered into a room, but this one has all upper classmen in it, this can't be my class. The room is not square, but more 'L' shaped. I recognize a few faces (one is D.R. who committed suicide shortly after graduating). I leave through the back door and wander the halls until I find the room I'm supposed to be in (I get there right as the last bell has rung - signalling that you'd better be where you're supposed to be). The teacher (I don't know if it's a history or music class) takes me to the library. There we meet up with a classmate and friend of mine, Gail. He instructs us to write a paper on Hoover (Herbert Hoover, I'm assuming). He goes and picks out some books on the subject and makes each of us choose one. Gail picks the thinnest book (it has a red cover and is about ten pages long). I say, "Don't they have any damn dam books (meaning on, Hoover Dam)?" I did manage to find one in the selection he had brought us. It was about 30 pages long and had a worn/torn yellow jacket. I chose that book and he left us alone to begin writing. While I'm there in the library, I keep noticing this guy, but I can't make out (see) his face. Though his face is visible, I can't focus on it. He's wearing blue jeans and a dark & medium purple striped t-shirt. He has long brown hair; straight, clean, thick and shiny. It flips up slightly at the ends. Now the third time I glance at him, to try and see who it is exactly, I can finally see his face clearly. He looks like Jesus, but without the beard. His skin is clear and smooth, translucent. He's about thirty-five to forty years old. He's standing there, holding up a 3 foot by 4 foot sheet of white construction paper (a sign of some sort). The sign has three vertical rows of approximately ten dozen words on it (40 words per row); words we're supposed to know (memorize) the meaning of. (4/2/98)
