I was getting on a plane for my eight grade trip and I was surprised to see several of my friends sitting on the plane (which was relatively small for a passenger plane). Delighted I ran to say hello to them because none of them were really going on the trip with me. However as soon as I sat down to speak to them they stared at me blankly and queried "Do we know you?" They then proceeded to laugh at my haircut and I went and sat down elsewhere. The rest of the dream involved a trip to New York where I went to Broadway and all of my friends sat elsewhere and made fun of the funny girl who tried to talk to them on the plane. Eventually I was signed on a contract with a Broadway director and wasn't so bad off. |
