| I take it your Canadian passport has found the trash, and that these days you spend a good amount of time in front of a self-congratulatory mirror? Oh, to be noble and righteous! Sounds like you're a bit Canadian after all. |

Yeah well, it's not a teaching nightmare exactly, but it was really strange. Does it still count?
As I mentioned in Tiberious' thread about people sleeping with earplugs to drown out neighbour noise & street noise, my problem is falling asleep with all this stony silence going on. Earphones? Haven't had much luck with those, so I just leave a small stereo playing. Usually 20 minutes of movie or radio play dialogue is enough to put me to sleep. But once in a while I play music.
So the music is playing and I guess it infected my dream. These two fine girls were over, right in my bedroom chilling. And I couldn't find my CDs of this band (the one that was playing while I was asleep). I have almost every album of theirs and I wanted to play it for the girls, and I was tearing through every damn inch of my bedroom. I woke up the next morning and found those CDs and I was soooo happy. LOL. But I was alone, there weren't any girls there. They'd gone.  |

My issue with Canadians is pretty much this:
a) their self congratulatory nature and their assumption the rest of the world actually gives a crap ("Oh you're from Canada! Oh wow! The UN called you the best nation on earth to live for several years! Please spend the night with my daughter!")
b) their need to define themselves as the not-Americans. "I love Canada because we're not like those evil Americans in the following ways..."

Has a whining girlfriend dulled your ability to be coherent? Even you must realize how juvenile it sounds to say you have an issue with 33 million people. |
Do you ever get tired making the same obvious and periphery point over and over again? |

No, it's not in the trash. Why should it be? What major problem do I have with Canada? Did you ignore what I said? |

| Mindmeto: You are so full of crap. You never miss an opportunity to diss Canada and its people, yet you deny all when taken to task and your words are pointed out to you. Also, you're getting a bit tedious with your defensive posture of always asking those who disagree with you: "Didn't your read what I had to say?" Yes, we've read your bullshit, but you fail to see your critical, haughty and condescending nature in just about every comment you make. You render opinions without facts, and then defend them vigorously when challenged, often taking a mean swipe at Corporal and others. Just shut-the-f-k up when I post and I will be a happy camper, you bigot. |

I had a nightmare where my boss was a compulsive liar who habitually paid everyone at least four days late and berated anyone who mentioned it. We also had this pyscho gyopo that tried to drag one of the teachers outside and fight with him, not because he could beat him up, but because the foreigner would be arrested for assault if he won the fight. In another part, people kept getting fired for talking about how twisted the school was, or simply for working there for 11 months. Wait a minute...that was real.
Yay, SLP! |

...Last night I had the strangest dream I've ever had before...
I dreamed I arrived at my middle school to find out that we had lost our staff room. Everyone's desk, the photocopier, shelves, and everything was exactly the same as before - they had just been moved outdoors. When I asked what the deal was (as in real life, I had not been informed of anything) I was told that we lost the staff room due to 'budgetary restrictions'. Otherwise everthing was carrying on just as before: students were coming and going; the secretary was typing away; teachers were going over materials; everyone's desk was in the same order - just outdoors in the corner of the field. Fortunately since my main desk is at the high school staff room it didn't effect me that much.
Anyone familiar with interpreting dreams know what this one's supposed to mean? |
 That's funny. Maybe you need to laugh and have a sense of humour about your dreams. |

Ha ha ha. Why do I suddenly get the image of this guy as Private Pyle from Full Metal Jacket sitting in front of his keyboard in his underwear, oiling his rifle, and obsessively repeating "Seven-six-two millimeter. Full metal jacket" to himself? |

No joke. Can we get back to the original topic? cause that would have been interesting.
I don't know if any of mine are really that strange. Every so often I'll have an anxiety-induced dream about school, involving a normally good class rioting, or me being very late, or something. Once I dreamed that a class I was supposed to be watching set the school on fire. Another time I dreamed that I sent Red class to the computer room and somewhere along the way they all disappeared, and I couldn't find them anywhere.
Of course Red class was the youngest of our kindergarten classes at the time, and when I went to school the next day and they didn't disappear and I had to teach them I started thinking maybe that one hadn't been such a nightmare after all... more like wishful thinking... |

| When I worked at a Second Cup (sort like Starbucks) back in my university days, I'd have this nightmare that I couldn't get a good foam when making cappuccino. That's my only other work-related nightmare. |
