Bad Dream
For the first time in ages last night, I had what I would consider to be a Bad Dream, ie. one that I do not feel in control of on some level. Actually, it was 2 bad dreams, with a break in the middle. In the first, I was sitting this strange freeform exam, on some branch of physics that I didn't recognise. Communication appeared to be permissable in this exam, so long as you kept reasonably quiet. The first part of the exam was, bizarrely, some kind of creative piece, so I hoped to try for most of my marks on that. In the second dream, I was called for a viva in the room that was used for our presentations. For some reason, all of the department's research and lecturing staff had turned up to grill me. Some guy I didn't recognise asked me a question about a law I didn't know existed named after a guy I hadn't heard of. I guessed it was something to do with optics (or thermodynamics - for some reason my brain fused the two) but then ran away to the physics library to look the law up, presumably leaving the staff waiting for me to get back and explain where I had run off to.
It was really a standard, out-of-the-box, unpreparedness dream, but it unnerved me all the same. I can, however, steady my nerves by watching several hours worth of pay-per-view while I tape up boxes - watching greased muscle-men hit each other for hours can set anyone straight. ...erm, yes.
Oh yeah, the lyrics not successfully identified from the previous lyrics quiz were: #5 Smashing Pumpkins - Bodies #6 Red Hot Chili Peppers - Venice Queen #9 Queens of the Stone Age - Mosquito Song #10 Flogging Molly - Screaming at the Wailing Wall
