I was 10 or 11 and I had a dream I was in a room full of windows all by myself. There was a table in the middle of the room as well as counters lining the walls below the windows. The room was very white and clean. I walked up to the table in the middle and all of a sudden a giant bug with millions of legs appeared and started to try to stand on its hind legs to get to me. I was terrified and tried backing away but I couldn't get very far because of the counters surrounding the edges of the room. I was huddled in a corner because the bug was waving its millions of legs at me and when it was about to get me my mom woke me up. She had came in to check on me because I had shrieked in my sleep. |
