I was playing a horror game that took place in an abandoned hospital. There were several points in the game where you could help and recruit allies. At a certain point however, it felt more like you were leading a family around the levels.

I walked out of the practice room to take a quick break around the building. It wasn’t until I got back to the front door I realized that I had locked myself out. My ID card was still inside one of the practice rooms.

It was late at night and I was sitting by a group of people playing a three-way game of Magic. Some new expansion recently got released but only one of them seemed particularly eager to play. When it got down to two players left, one of them forfeited - and said they were going to sleep.

I was playing with a remote control car around the pool. It was a small pick-up truck named the Mars on Rover. “In you go” I said, as I used the car to push what looked like model sailboat into the pool. Not only did I misjudge what it was that I was pushing, I also misjudged how far the car went and they both sank to the bottom.

My parents asked me where I wanted to go when my next vacation came around. They suggested a hiking trip. I told them I didn’t have time to worry about that until I finished my thesis.

For our homework assignment, we had to write an algorithm that would help reduce traffic on highways. Unfortunately when the time came to test our results, we had not anticipated that there would be a giant monster on the road.

When I got out of the pool, I noticed that my socks were gone. After looking around, I saw that someone else was wearing my socks. I looked down to see that I was wearing their socks as well. “Well this is fine, I guess”, I said, “as long as you got nothing contagious, like some foot fungus.” Our socks were wet from walking around the pool.
