Dreams
Had a weird dream again last night. Remember the guy I know that always pops up in my dreams every now and then? He popped in again last night. For a short while. Then someone I didn't really want to dream about showed up too, in a situation I also didn't want to happen. Still, that's not the point, the point is, I dreamt about my professors too. And I'm so freaked out and worried about my finals and grades, that I have a feeling my dream might have something to do with it. Even though, I must admit, it's so far off.
See, here's what happened. I was in this beautiful gray-blue skyscrapper (skyscraper?) building that was really gorgeous. Anyway, I really needed to pee. As in. And apparently, I had gone over to the Biochem department, but Japs (Prof Generoso) said that they didn't have a bathroom in their dept so maybe I should try Anatomy department since they had a bathroom inside their office. I did. It was a big office and in the outer office, the secretary said that I should go right ahead (I guess it was so obvious that I was in dire need of a bathroom). When I reached the inner office tho, Doc Tata (Dr. Sy-Santos) asked what I was doing there and why did the secretary allow me inside? I said that I really needed to use their bathroom and could I? She said no, saying that students aren't allowed inside and the bathroom in the anat dept is strictly for anat professors and members of the faculty. I said I really needed to pee and my bladder was on the verge of bursting. She said that it wasn't her problem and that I should go to the nearest bathroom outside. I protested that the nearest bathroom was in another wing and about 5-10 minutes away. Tata said it wasn't her problem. I stormed out just in time to see Japs enter. She took one look at me and knew that I hadn't been allowed to use their bathroom (could it be my annoyed look? Or my pained bladder-full expression?) and correctly guessed that Tata was at fault. Just in time Doc Tata came out to 'helpfully' tell me the directions to the next 'nearest' bathroom. Japs stared at her with a stunned look on her face. Then proceeded to argue with Tata. Tata defended herself right back. Mostly, Doc Tata was justifying her actions because it was the rules and rules had to be followed. Japs was arguing that my case clearly constituted an emergency and shouldn't rules be broken for those? She kept asking Doc Tata about her so-called doctor oath to help others and medical opinions (since it was so obvious that I really needed to pee and doesn't loads of bad stuff happen to the human body when urine is held in?) and stuff.
I left them to their arguing (since I couldn't very well stay in one place in the hopes that one of them would give in in the space of the next 2 minutes) and went out to look for the 'nearest' bathroom. It turned out that the 'nearest' bathroom was closed and locked, but that's another part of the story entirely.
Anyway, the connection I can see with my grades is that... what if my grades aren't, er, that high? And Doc Tata insists on failing me coz it's the 'rules' while Japs would argue that I be allowed to pass coz I'm a 'special case' (human bio and not yet a college graduate)??? Ugh. I'm so scared.
