I was staying with my family at someone's house in a rural area. There was a school there where my boyfriend went. My boyfriend was a very studious black kid, and he was very nice. I was at the house and had to drive a couple of kids out to a camp they were participating in.
We drove in a little box-car kind of thing. The road was very windey and there was snow everywhere. I was looking at the grass on the side of the road and all the hills covered in snow and realized we were in New Zealand. I told this to the kids I was driving and they were surprised I didn't know that.
We got to the camp, which was in the middle of nowhere, and I came inside with the kids and took all of my snow gear off and helped the kids with theirs. My mom was working there, and I told her that myself and the kids didn't want to participate in the camp's hike, and that we had just come out here to visit. So after we had stayed for a while I told my mom that we were going to drive back now. She said that we absolutely couldn't do that because it had gotten too cold outside now, and that we would have to stay here until morning. I was kind of bummed about this because I had nothing to do out there, but I decided to make the best of it. I spent a lot of time around some of the kids at the camp that night, and developed quite an affinity for some of them. I really loved them and decided I would miss them when they left.
I was with Erin and Theo in a room at the camp. My sociology professor had given us an assignment that required Theo and I to take a huge dose of shrooms while Erin recorded our reaction to it. The mushrooms came in pill-form and I didn't want to take that big a dose, so i opened the pill and poured out some of the powder and took that. I was excited to do shrooms again, but I was kind of concerned about having a bad time. Theo sat down in a chair in front of a mirror, then I went over and sat on his lap. He nicely told me that I shouldn't be sitting there, and I ignored him. When we stood up from the chair and looked in the mirror, for a split second our bodies turned into one and the image in the mirror was a mishmash of me and Theo's features. We both said "wow" and jumped away from the mirror. When Erin came back we told her what had just happened, and described it as cool but kind of gruesome.
I was in the bathroom at the camp and heard Erin outside the door saying she had just eaten a really hot pepper and that it was going to make her throw up. Then she threw up. Then I heard a bunch of people laughing at her. When I came out of the bathroom I saw that the people laughing at her were a large group of British men, and someone was standing there scolding them.
My mom, my sisters, and me had all come back to Irvine and we were staying in a hostel. My mom was bothered by how small the room was, and I was bothered by how hot everything felt in America. I looked out the window and saw Sam wandering away. I yelled out the window to ask her where she was going, she pulled her headphones out of one ear and said that she was going to go explore. I told her that this is Irvine and there is absolutely nothing to explore. She was surprised because she thought we were someone else. I told her to turn around and look at the name written on the church behind her (which read "Baptist Church of Irvine").
The hostel we were staying at was very close to the beach so I went down there with my family. The waves were huge, and i would have to brace myself so they wouldn't slam me into the rocky cliff behind us. There was a huge Whale in the waves who I befriended. Or at least I thought he was my friend, and then as every wave came in he would sniff around where I was in an agressive way, and I thought he was going to eat me. I told my mom I was leaving, and she said "what, too much for you?", and I told her "uh, yeah... I mean the whale is trying to eat me".
Later on that night I was in the hostel with Theo and some people. I was avoiding the Whale, who had come by my house looking for me a few times. I felt really bad about avoiding him because I wanted him to be my friend, but I was just afraid. Then, for no particular reason, I realized I was dreaming and that I wanted to fly.
I jumped out the nearest window, which was about 8-stories up, and flew out over the ocean. The sun was setting and the whole sky was a deep purple and the clouds had a pink lining on them. The ocean also looked dark purple. I flew over the city with all of it's lights on. Flying felt so good and relieving, I felt completely happy. I saw the Whale as I was flying and told him I was sorry, and encouraged him to fly with me. He tried and did pretty well. The Whale asked me if I could do a "fairy circle". Which apparently meant do a backflip in the air. I told him that I could do pretty much anything I wanted, so I tried the fairy circle and I could do it. The whale then took the form of what he would look like if there was a person. There was a huge tree there and another guy sitting in the top of it. I flew up to the tree and asked the guy what he was doing. He was apparently examining his feet.
