A dream I had last night

**beloitpiper** · 9th February 08, 12:19 PM

Ok, so yesterday I just turned in my application to be an RA at my college. Tomorrow I have to go in for an interview, but last night I had a really crazy dream.

(Begin dream sequence)
So I go in for my interview, but one of the guys stops be and holds up a photo. It's a photo of a guy wearing a kilt, sitting down, so that you can see "whats underneath". He stops me and says, "You're not going to be an RA because of this," implying that it was me in the photo. "This kind of indecency has no place at Beloit!" At first I try to apologize, but then I look at the photo and realize that it couldn't be me! Although the face was somewhat hidden, I explain why that is not me in the photo. "Hey, I don't have a kilt in that tartan! That is Black Watch, and I wear a Gordon. ALSO, I am a gentleman and know how to sit as such." I then walk past him and into the interview room.
(End dream sequence)

Yeah, I chuckled when I woke up.

You're going to be an R.A? Oh you poor lad. Just wait till you see what you're in for.

As far as that dream... hmmmm... sounds like you're going to be fighting the ethnic corner

OK, funny - not how I thought it was going to end.

Sometimes a banana is just a banana, huh.

Good luck becoming an RA.

Hopefully you'll do better than my RA. He and a… friend of his made quite a bit of noise the other night, preventing me from getting a good night's sleep. Had to turn on my bagpipe albums to drown out the noise.

In the best Freud voice I can muster, I say tell me Lad what do you think this dream means? Do you not know that weirdness happens to us all in the negative before the positive?

What's an RA?

As an adult, I rarely remember my dreams, except for the nightmares. So far, none have featured me in kilt or with pipes.

Good luck with the RA position, beloitpiper!

I have vivid dreams that regularly wake me up and I remember. I recall how surprised I was the first time I dreamt of myself in a kilt. I thought to myself: well, it's official - part of who I am now!

Regards,
Rex.

Funny dream...

And good luck being an R.A. I've been one for two years (going on three) at my Christian college...so far I've dealt with grand larceny (literally), cussing, swearing, girls being snuck in at all hours of the day, and many, many other things that you wouldn't expect. But, again, just keep your head up and always remember, payday has to come sometime!
