Elysium

APRIL 2, 2006:

Last night, I was contemplating on how fascinating my dreams could get that it actually foresee things that is bound to happen. It was in the middle of summer 2003 when I had this dream about a few bitchy classmates of mine that seems to piss me off in front of my crush in the midst of a Eucharistic ceremony in UST Chapel. They were at the back, standing and staring at me as I enter the chapel, anticipated my arrival and armed themselves with all the teasing they had muster all their lives. And there, they go lambasting my whole moral with their sassy looks and evil words. I swear, if I could just swear in front of God. Well, here goes the weird part. I saw a grade school batch mate; we are not friends or anything like that, we do talk for formality sake, but that’s it. She just appeared and what do you know, she saves me from those demonic bitches. How she did it I do not know. After a year, she became my classmate, cheatmate, phonemate, secret-keeper, go-home-buddy, since we do ride the same jeepney and one of my best friends! I was remininiscing because she actually asked me to be one of the candles for her début this coming May. Then the second time it happened was when I had a dream about two of my classmate in second year. I was on the rooftop of the high school building eavesdropping on a couple (my two classmates) arguing on something, and as if it’s so automatic that it just slips out of my mouth something like, “Naku, L.Q. na ‘to ah!” The day after that, I told the dream at my girl classmate’s bestfriend, and she goes, “OH MY GOD! Napanaginipan mong sila? Eh, crush nya yun e!” I was clueless. They barely talk so they do not seem to share something like that, a simple crush. And to make things even more wicked is when I found out that later after that year the boy classmate of mine started courting her! They did not end up to each other’s arms though. Well, I guess that explained why they are arguing in my dream. Actually, that is not the end of a series of my ala-Professor-Trelawney’s-prediction. So much for that, well actually I haven’t got that much of a dream these days. I mean they make really no sense at all. A dream of a cuddling moment with my “puppy” doesn’t seems like it’s going to happen anytime soon, but last night I had it. I dreamt that we just received our economics final test result. And guess what I got, 54 over 100! Then I started throwing my things in the air and screaming like hell! I flunk! I AM AN IRREG! I went home, bitter and all, feeling sorry for my never-saved-ass, devastated, cursing and yeah you know when you flunk… or maybe if you haven’t (good for you!) when you get to see student mortified by the last-breathing-most-notorious-professor or over-sized geek tumbling down the stairs, that’s how I looked like. Shame, envelopes the whole me. But, when I woke up, to my surprise I suddenly realized that, that is the exact grade I should have to pass. 54 over 100 means 77% (yeah, I know, ang bobo noh!) anyhow Mrs. Diaz told me that atleast I should have this percentage in my final exam to pass. So, does that mean I did pass? Hay, I don’t know if this dreams of mine could really take me any further. I guess, I just have to pray harder than ever.


and look and behold, i passed! hahaha...
