1-27: A Bus Like a Hotel

 I was on my way back home from school. It was supposedly winter - I don't know how else it could get dark at 5 pm. Given that I was still going to school at noon, I think I was around 10th grade. 

Curiously, I got in a bus that doesn't normally come near my high school, no.105. What was even more unusual was that a few other classmates came with me. And by the time I was like three stops away from home, my classmates were still with me, although one of them was supposed to take the train home, and we had passed the train station. 

For some reason, I fell asleep in the bus, and went all the way to the very last stop, missing my chance to get home, of course. 

I woke up to one classmate calling out to me - the same guy who was supposed to get down ages back and take the train. To my utter surprise I noticed that the bus now looked exactly like my grandma's bedroom (in the way the furniture was arranged). Also, I had slept on the floor. 

As I explored the vehicle further, I saw it turn into a theatre, with the chairs, the rugs and the curtain all painted in red. Up ahead, there was an indicator showing that we had reached the "Gorj Depot" as I slept. I didn't even care it was like 3 am, I called my mom to ask for help. The dream ended with my casual question: "Mom, won't you take the bus until the last stop and get me out of the depot, please?"

1-7: Notary in a Church

The usual dream in which I had to go to school. So I waited for the trolleybus that would get me to school. Normally, the first stop from home is near a church. In my dream, the trolleybus was passing through the church as if it were a tunnel. As for what could be seen inside of the church, well, aside from the dimly lit space,  there was a notary. I got off and suddenly, I realized I couldn't get out of the church anymore. (To this day, I still ask myself why I chose to get off that trolleybus, I could have just passed the stop if I had stayed in, but logic be damned.) Then I started asking everyone if they knew a way for me to get out of the said church, more like "I'm sorry for causing a disturbance, but couLD YOU PLEASE TELL ME how to get out of here??" The desperate faces I made brought me no answer though. In the end, my mom came to get me out of there (don't ask me how). The "church" looked slightly different when she arrived, more like a train st...

1-29: Medicinal Movies and Shadow Tea

In the beginning of the dream, I found myself at a hotel that greatly resembled my grandparents' countryside house. However, compared to the reality I used to know, the bedroom only consisted of one bed that occupied the entire space.  One day, upon leaving the bedroom, I noticed a familiar scenery unfolding before my eyes - the kitchen of Howard Johnson (actual Sheraton), the hotel where I'd completed my very first practice stage in 9th grade. I explored the long corridor further, noticing a pharmacy right in front of the restaurant. Normally, that was the place where we got rid of the rests of the clients' food. But this time, it was a pharmacy, and inside the pharmacy, there was a therapist.  The therapist gave me a special brand of tea to drink and "calm down". If I may say, she had quite a lot of different brands. Apparently, whenever one drank the tea, they would enter a weird state of mind, and imagine themselves watch a movie they'd never seen befo...
