Back to School Dream

It happened. I had the "back to school dream" last night. It is a usual occurrence during the summer and only happens once, thank goodness. In real life, I will be teaming with a new English teacher to teach American Civilization, and I am a little nervous about it. The person that I thought that I was teaming with is now going to be the Assistant Activities Director and will not be in the classroom. The anxiety made itself known through my dream. In the dream, it was the first day of school and the new teacher (a male) was very dynamic and had the kids totally engaged with his personality. When it was my turn to teach, I had nothing ready for them -- no copies made, nothing written on the board, no class roster to take attendance. I was mortified and "ran" out of the room to make copies. I couldn't make it to the copy room because stuff kept getting in my way and whenever I try to run in a dream it feels like I'm walking through quicksand.

I woke up relieved to find that it is Saturday and there are still 5 weeks of summer! Thank God! I will be sure to live each of those weeks to the fullest :)
