taking dad to the ER and federal conspiracies

I'm in a dorm room that belong to me at a college. I'm texting some federal agent who's trying to get some information from me. I catch him in a lie and I have proof of his conspiracy to kill people who won't listen to him on my phone now.

My dad is sitting on my bed and collapses. I pick him up and he fits in the palm of my hands. I run outside, hesitating for a second whether I should grab my cell phone or not. I leave without it. I run around the corner through some doors and run down the hallway where the ER is at. I yell for help, I yell that my dad is dying and for anyone to help me. No one listens. Finally, a nurse comes and disgustingly looks at my dad, who's still as small as the palm of my hands, and asks "What is THAT?", "That's my dad, I yell at her!! Help him!" I'm crying, I don't know what to do. She grabs him from me. I sit down and cry.

I realize my cell phone is still upstairs and my room is unlocked. The feds could come in and grab the only evidence I have. I run upstairs, I can't pick my feet up [I hate slow motion running in dreams. Gah!]. I pass one of the federal agents down the hall [who looks like one of the CPD cops in my Master's program] and he smiles at me mischievously. I open my room door and my cell phone is gone. I run back down to the federal agent and yell at him, "I know you took my phone! You took it! I know what you did! You're killing people and I know it!!"

He just looks at me pretending he doesn't know what I'm talking about. I run outside to get to the other building where my dad is being taken care of. It's really muddy and pouring really hard. There's a little stream I must cross to get to the building. I take off my shoes and step in the stream, it's all muddy, I try to get across.

And then... I wake up.

Master's exam, contractions, and toilet paper

I'm in this building waiting to take the Master's comprehensive exam test. We had to turn in a couple of assignments but I turned mine in a couple weeks earlier. My friend, Brittnie, asks me where I turned my assignment in and I can't remember. I'm freaking out that I may not have turned it in to the right place.

We're waiting outside the lobby, signing our names in. I walk in and everyone's already seated waiting to take the exam. I sit at the front tables so I can concentrate on my exam.

[My dream apparently skips the traumatic experience of the exam and we're all finished]. A lady taps my friend, Reva, on the shoulder telling her she needs to leave. Apparently, Reva was having contractions and someone had called her to tell her to get to the hospital. I'm confused as to why Reva didn't say anything during the exam and how someone could know she was having contractions. We all get up to go with Reva. Her mom is waiting for her at the front door, but before her mom takes her to the car, we all take Reva to this grocery store. Her mom stands by the car, smiling, appearing so peaceful and happy that all of Reva's friends are willing to help her out. Every person runs into the grocery store and starts buying her a roll of toilet paper [what the??? Don't ask me why...]. This is our way to show her that we're supporting her and her baby.

I realize I don't have my wallet but someone's willing to pay for my rolls of toilet paper. By the time we get to the register, I realize everyone's already gone. I run outside and Reva has already left.

And then... I wake up.

snake!!!!!

I'm at work with my dad.

I sit up to get something and when I get back, I see a snake crawling on top of my bag pack.
I yell for my dad since I absolutely hate snakes and he comes by my side. We're watching it crawl everywhere, it's slithering around the office super fast. We can barely keep sight of it. Finally, I go to one of the full-time staff there, Lori, and tell her there's a snake in the office. She tells me she's deathly afraid of them and calls someone for help. While she's on the phone, I keep an eye on the other office to make sure the snake is still there. It's now this huge snake hanging on the wall. I can see its skin and muscles as if someone skinned this snake.

Lori gives me a set of phone numbers to call for help. I don't know where my cell phone is and I'm scared the snake is near it so I use Lori's phone to call. I go back to the room where the snake is and it's turned into a cobra but its tail is super short.
It's looking at my dad and my dad is trying to catch it but I yell at him to get away from it. My dad faces it and non-threateningly moves his hand towards the cobra and the cobra allows my dad to pet him. Then my dad gets scared and moves his hand away. The cobra gets away and I see it slither impossibly through a phone jack. I'm on the phone with whoever is supposed to help and I tell them that it's gone but I can see it move through the wall. They need to come and catch it now!

And then... I wake up.

beautiful hotel room

I just arrived in the hotel lobby where my parents and sister were waiting for me. We're waiting for our room. Finally, my mom goes up the stairs and opens the door. It is indescribable. The hotel room is enormous and absolutely beautiful. There's a couple steps that lead to 2 beds and then there's a couple more stairs that lead down to another bed.

I look up from pulling my luggage in and there are these large windows that show the best view possible--the ocean.
I go up to the windows and I see that they open to a large patio area, which could lead to a track for running and to the ocean pier. The ocean is clear and bright blue.

I realize I've forgotten to pack a lot of things, my running shoes, sandals, and all sorts of clothes. But when I open my luggage, those things are there. My sister and I are changing when we realize that our window is open and other people can see us.

The maintenance lady comes in and my mom asks her a question about the room.

And then... I wake up.

where are my Rainbows?

I'm at someone's house, which is located exactly at the center of this little tourist place with a bunch of souvenir shops. I'm walking around the rooms saying hello to my friends and my old residents, congratulating them for graduating from college.

I realize I have to go to Target but I forgot where I placed my Rainbows.
I'm looking everywhere for them. I go up the stairs, down another staircase to see if I placed them at the bottom of those ones. Too many shoes around but mine aren't there. I go back up the stairs and I find another staircase but it doesn't lead to the bottom. I get scared I'll fall off so I look for another staircase. I go outside where the shops are and try to find another entrance to the house.

Finally, I get back inside the house and look frantically through all the shoes but unfortunately, I can't find my sandals. Then, I forget what I'm looking for and think I'm looking for my iphone [which I do not have]. I realize it's probably long gone by now and someone's taken it.

And then... I wake up.

dog training

I'm in my apartment where I've just adopted a yellow lab. He's the cutest dog ever!
I take him for a walk and it's raining but I have to train him how to sit and wait to cross the street, etc.. As we're about to cross the street, I tell him "Stop" and he does, I just know that he's understanding me and following my instructions.. pretty awesome. I'm thinking to myself, "Wow.. I'm so good at this, I thought it'd take longer for him to listen to me."

Then I go outside of this sandwich shop trying to figure out what I want to buy for dinner. I'm trying to look at the menu from the outside since I can't bring the dog in. There's arrows pointing to somewhere for me to leave my dog there while I eat but I'm scared someone will steal him so I keep him with me. A man from the restaurant next door comes up to me and tells me, "Come to my restaurant.. it's better. Don't go to this one. I'll let your dog in too."

I get suspicious so I look at my dog...

And then... I wake up.
