Outcast, Even In My Dreams

I am one of those people that dreams insanely vividly, like if you were to see one of my dreams you would be blown away by the colour quality and graphic design.

When I was little I used to think of a dream like it was another world. I used to look forward to dreaming because I would be the popular kid and the fairest of them all, but last night that all changed. After a long night of rough comments and derp-y moments, I looked forward to entering my imaginary land of awesome.

As I lay in my bed, playing Candy Crush waiting for slumber to find me, I was thinking about the events of the day, how I needed money and how I was so not the cool kid. I guess sleep found me and I entered la-la land in the state of feeling like a loser.

I was dreaming about being a university student, but for some reason I was in a high school classroom. The teacher was introducing himself to the class and for some reason the students were talking about the kind of car the teacher drove. The teacher asked a question and hands shot up around the room and I began to panic because I had clearly not heard the question and so I did not know the answer. This question seemed to be a survey of sorts and I still had no idea what was going on. He listed off the last thing and I just covered my face with my hands hoping that he wouldn't notice that I hadn't answered in any of the categories, well I guess that was the wrong time to cover my face because he took that small hand motion as my answer and everyone laughed at me. Not with me, AT me. So there were a couple comments thrown out about me being poor and I was like, "Excuse me, I'm in university!" and again they all laughed and said "why are you in high school then?" The girl beside me asked who my grandfather was and I answered a normal, sarcastic, Marika answer hoping to get the class back on my side again saying "My mothers father, obviously!" And they laughed again calling me an idiot. Like what the heck?! Why couldn't the teacher just repeat the question so I could give a legit answer but nope, the damage was done, my dream world was now just like the normal one. My dreams will now have to made up of me avoiding human interaction and locking my self in my room to watch Grey's Anatomy.

Goodbye fantasy land.
