Last night's was a new take on the above. I dreamt that I realised that I forgot to finish my Bachelor of Commerce degree. In my dream, I took most of the courses, but somehow forgot to take the last six.
It felt very real. I woke up and actually had to think "I did finish it right?" I remembered my Bachelor of Science degree because I have a very vivid memory I have of finishing my last exam. But for the life of me I couldn't remember graduating Commerce.
It completely freaked me out. I was WIDE awake at 4:45 am. In addition, there was this odd repetitive humming noise, which I think was the air conditioner that at 4:45 am was just deafening. It's probably always been there, but I just never noticed it. In my highly freaked out state, I was aware of everything.
At some point, I drifted back to sleep. I am guessing around 6 am or so. Come 6:40 am when I usually get up, I was a zombie. A double espresso did nothing to remedy my situation.
Even though in my head I KNEW I had done all the courses and graduated, I still had to run down to the basement and find my certificate that was sitting in one of the boxes downstairs. I know it's ridiculous, but it had to be done.
Standing there looking at the certificate I felt relief, but also like a colossal idiot.
