The four of us were sitting in a room and we each had a large sheet of paper in front of us with an empty timetable. There were symbols at the top of each column and they seemed to be heavily distorted due to scaling them up before being printed out. We were asked how we would spend the summer from week to week. We were to block our time over the 7 day cycle in chunks of 4 rows at a time, each row representing 7 minutes. Someone complained about the empty and unusable space on the time table and I agreed.

I had woken up and it was already 13:20*. I looked at my phone and saw a ton of notifications from Facebook. I jumped into the swimming pool, balancing a pencil horizontally in my right hand. This was my form of surrender. I opened up my daily planner and saw some scribbles most likely induced by sleep deprivation: “SCROUNGE//OMG//SKY” each taking up two lines of space. There seemed to be check marks next to each of them.

There was going to be a “PE exam” at 12 “mach 8″*. We had been driving on a highway that went through the mountains until we reached a rest area that overlooked the ocean. There was still time so I went in the convenience store which turned out to be rather crowded. I remember taking two bags of candy and putting them in my backpack - not with the intention to shoplift but merely so my hands were free to do other things. I walked to the back of the store and found nothing of interest until someone asked me to help them open a bottle of red wine. I agreed but when I looked at the opener, it was more like a short pin rather than a corkscrew. After poking the cork a few times, I found and resorted to a two-pronged opener that was laying on the side. After opening the bottle and handing it back, I wandered around the cashier until I looked at my watch and saw that it was 12:17. I froze for a moment before panicking and heading out.

It was nighttime and I was walking through the higher levels of what seemed to be a large department store. The floor was extremely crowded and people were constantly entering and exiting through the elevators and escalators. I was just wandering through the mass of people as I usually do and looked down at the street from the window. There seemed to be a party going on one of the roofs of a neighboring building. I looked at the distant figures as Daft Punk was playing in the background. When I turned around, I saw a familiar face heading towards the elevator. I ignored them and turned back to head down by the escalator until I changed my mind and decided to join them. While making my way to the elevator, we met and it turned out that she was actually heading to the escalators as well.

I was walking on the grassy slopes next to the road and picked up a red broom. Apparently I had wandered to a spot where people liked to drink together. There was a tour group coming down the road and the guide was talking about RennFayre. Two CSOs were discussing how it was understandable that people identified as the color green.

I was walking through the neighborhood in the early hours of the morning before I had to go to class. Two people in front of me were wearing a dark shade of green. After walking in a large loop, my dad asked me if I got ready for class. I answered that I didn’t because I took a different path today and wasn’t operating according to my usual routine.

I was walking through immigration and handed them my Taiwan ID card. I hard forgotten that I was supposed to give them my passport and visa instead which caused some confusion. While I got my documents out of my backpack, I explained that I had been in the US for a month and forgot standard procedure. However while my backpack was open, and immigration officer reached in and took out a Japanese dictionary. He seemed to be very fascinated by it and was flipping through the pages of the dictionary.

In front of me was a large mallard with the approximate size and proportions of an ostrich. I started to pet its head with my back of my hand and thought about taking a picture of it. However I kept holding my phone too close to the bird and was unable to get a clear photo of the duck’s head.

I sat up from the mattress and was told that the room was lit with polarizing light. People said if I tilted my head up, everything would appear dark. I was however unable to move my neck at all.

I was browsing through Tumblr on my phone and there was a picture of an orange building on a cliff overlooking a highway. It was supposedly an academic building of sorts and snow was spilling out of the windows.
