[Magdalen] Dream On.

[Eleanor Braun]

I read once that your #2 dream (final exam for course not studied) is one
of the most common dreams ever.  I've had it a few times.  In the dream,
I'm a senior in high school, and have been suffering from senioritis, and
suddenly discover a final is scheduled.  That didn't happen in real life,
but I've still had the dream.  It seems like a stand-in for anxiety,
especially from not being prepared for something coming up in life.
