We asked you to submit the strangest dreams you've had during quarantine. You did not disappoint. Below are a collection of Westridge's weirdest quarandreams!
I dreamed that someone from my old school cut my hair off, and I started crying and ran out of Anatomy and stayed and cried in the bathroom stall. And then had to come back and tell Ms. Hatchman why I missed class.
I dreamed that I went on an Outward Bound trip to Turkey. I was really confused because we ended up staying in a fancy-ass house. And instead of putting up tents and stuff like you're supposed to on Outward Bound trips, we ended up sleeping on pool chairs. The people on my trip were mostly from Westridge. Then somehow I was flying above everyone on my pool chair. I went over the house and then out over the ocean, which was this deep fuschia color all of a sudden. And the sky was dark purple. The waves were really choppy. I looked down, and struggling a bit in the waves on a sailboat I saw an unnamed Westridge teacher. I threw down a rope (that for some reason I was sleeping with?) and brought both of us back to land on my pool chair. Then it was time for goodbyes. My unnamed crush's mom was there, sobbing. And my grandmother was there crying with her. My crush came and took me inside, and we were in the same room as this boy I babysit for except all his toys were gone, and the room was full of instruments and boxes. We didn't really kiss because my crush kept trying to explain to me how to do it, and I got bored and woke up. At least I saved that teacher from the ocean. I love them very much.
I dreamed that I was at a mall, and there was a bull running towards me. I thought I could avoid it by back flipping over it, but instead got fucking SWEPT by it. I rode it for a second, saw Rihanna in front of me, and she saved me from it.
I dreamed that I got pregnant, and I had to give birth in my neighbor's house. To get me ready, my mom made me eat 12 paper plates. I kept telling her I would only feel safe if Dr. Carruthers was there. She also made me drink a shit ton of water. I woke up with three different eyelashes in my eyes.
I dreamed that I, three of my close friends, and my little brother got stuck in a cottage in the suburbs of Florence, Italy, with Ms. Yurchak's baby. We were told to defend it at all costs. This home had a lot of different kinds of beds and different kinds of showers. It also had a Buddhist temple on the second floor. All of us (including the baby) were on different sleep schedules, and we had to all find each other every time we woke up.
I dreamed that my sister woke me up because my friend was FaceTiming me to tell me she was moving to Columbia. And over FaceTime she showed me a documentary-like video (including interviews) to announce the move--had to text my friend in the morning to confirm it wasn’t real.
I dreamed that I was in a room with four other versions of myself, and we were all debating what the answer to 17+6 is. We were all wrong.
I dreamed that I got pulled over right under a freeway with six other people, and three police officers showed up and told us that it was city policy to hold mandatory baseball games with anyone who left their houses and broke quarantine. So as punishment for leaving my house, I had to play baseball with six strangers and three police officers. My car key broke somewhere in there, and I couldn't turn my car off. It just stayed in reverse and moved slowly away. The final group of people was: me, a male police officer who was green for unknown reasons, a female police officer named Coral who was kind of short and strong and had a brown braid and a huge tattoo on her arm of something in Spanish, another woman police officer with a pink bob and TONS of tattoos, a mom driving a minivan who only spoke French, a VERY creepy guy who had a weird smile but could fix anything, a gamer who looked around 50 years old, and the last two got sent to outfield right away so I didn't get to know them really. Anyways, as the male police officer was explaining the rules, I tried to read Coral's tattoo, and she got angry that I wasn't paying attention. I asked her what the real issue was, and she took me aside and said she was dating this woman who was MARRIED TO A MAN, and the woman was refusing to leave him for Coral. I gave her a really long hug and told her she was enough, and she started crying and said we should go back to the group. Most people had gone to their positions at that point, but the creepy fix-it man was still there, and he fixed the mom's car seat in five minutes. I'm not sure why, but I couldn't force myself to ask for help with my car key. He didn't seem like he would help me for free. I didn't trust him.
I dreamed that my friend and I were in this government building walking through long hallways, and at the end of the hallway was a door with a lot of light coming through, so we opened it and were welcomed into this therapy support group on an open balcony with a great view (think Santorini but with more than just blue color). But we couldn’t sit next to each other, and people were saying weird things, but we could only communicate with our eyes.
I dreamed that I missed advisory. The next day I missed advisory :/
I dreamed that I was walking to my hotel room when I saw someone making out with Mr. Seidman at the end of the hallway, and there were three Korean aunties surrounding them.
I dreamed that my mom had a bag of croissants in her closet, and I went into the bag and got one and then forgot about it.
