*Not totally sure this is the date. Need to check.
This is the weird school of dead people dream that made me want to stop looking into metaphysical stuff.
I was the new kid in high school and I could tell I didn't really fit in, but it also wasn't a big deal. I didn't feel like they were going to be mean about it. It was also a bunch of kids my age, but also somehow I knew a few of them were not kids for real.
I quickly found out there was a class they all had that I didn't have. It was called Ascension. I wasn't allowed to take the class or go in the room. I never saw the teacher but I also somehow had a mental image of him. The tall creepy white guy from American Horror Story (specifically the Hotel version).
He was having them do all these crazy potions and spells to help them Ascend. I knew in my heart he was a snake oil salesman / teacher. What he was teaching them would never work. But I also knew I didn't have the knowledge of how to help them.
It was around that time that I probably started waking up because I could tell that they were dead now. All of them. Even my teachers (but not the Ascension guy). I wasn't scared but I did think at that moment that I wanted to go home. And just then the bell rang.
I went out to the bus line and couldn't find my bus (a very common dream for me). But finally I did see a little boy I recognized so I got on that bus. Strangely, he wasn't a student. He came with the bus, but I was OK with that. I recognized him. He was about 5 with really dark hair, but no other features I can recall. Not really some one I recognize now.
When I got on, though, I started feeling like it wasn't the right bus. So I asked if she went to my street (301) and she said no she didn't go over that way. I tried to get off but the bus was already rolling. And the bus driver kept saying "I got you," and telling me not to worry. She would get me home.
So I calmed down and sat beside this boy that I somehow knew and loved, even though I was supposedly a new student. I couldn't see his face or I can't recall it now, but we loved each other so much. We sat there holding hands. He also had a white cat in his lap.
