Party in my Pants

I was at school. It was summertime or something because there was a festival-type thing going on. I saw Theo and started to try to catch up to him. I couldn't get closer and kept seeing his red hair in flashes through the crowd. He jumped around this tree as he walked, and when I came to the tree I started to climb it. I found it was a very easy tree to climb and that I was good at climbing it. Theo eventually disappeared from sight.
I was with Justin now and we were about to go to a big party. He asked me if he could borrow my jeans and I said sure. I thought it was funny that he was wearing them, and sort of admired it at the same time. We drove off to the party.
I was eventually drunk and talking with Justin and everyone else there and having a good time.

Flying and Bee-keeping

I was at school walking through campus. There were people outside everywhere lined up along the walls of buildings. Most of them were hispanic, and they all just started at me as I walked by. None of them said anything.
I was with sam walking through a dark place with stone walls. Dana jumped out from behind a pillar with sock-em-boppers on his hands. As he was flying through the air toward us, I pushed sam toward the ground and flung myself over her to protect her. Dana hit to the ground directly next to us, and just cheerily greeted us. He then was like, "oh, I'm sorry, it was just a joke".
I was out in a desert-looking area with a couple of people I had just met. I was telling them how there were great dirtbike trails up in the hills.
I was getting on to a bus with a bunch of people. We were driving somehwere really far away. There was something wrong with the bus, like a leak or something.
I was out in the forest with the people whom I had been on the bus with. They had decided that the bus could run on trees or something like that. I was catapulted up into the air to get whatever it was the bus needed. I rose higher and higher into the air like I was flying. At first it was really fun, but as I started to rise higher than the surrounding redwood trees I realized I would die on the way back down. I started to breathe rapidly and heavily, and then as I willed myself not to plummet back toward the ground, the dream became lucid. I soared back up into the sky even higher this time, and looked around through the fog at all the green rolling hills partially covered in trees.
I flew away from everyone, and eventually ran into this guy who was trying to protect this old woman from bees. Apparently the woman had started raising them as pets, but then the colony had grown to a huge size. Her whole house was had bees flying in and out of it. When the lady had gone out with her friend, the guy went to work flying in and out of the house, spraying bees with insecticide. I was flying around following him, and was afraid of getting stung.

Marajuana Seaweed

I was on a beach in southern california. It was very sunny out and everything looked kind of gold, like it was evening. I was with a bunch of random and rather shady characters. We were all just relaxing and having a good time. I walked over to the water and noticed that there was a really wierd plant in there. I went and pulled it out, and it was like one of those huge chunks/chains of seaweed that you find, except it was kind of bright green. I realized it was a huge weed plant (weed meaning marajuana). I dragged it up the sand to my group of friends and showed them what I found. They were all amazed, and we all started talking about how we could sell this stuff. I started imagining us buying a house right there on the beach. I looked across the street and saw some run-down apartments. I decided that I didn't exactly want to live right there, but I was sure there were some nice houses somewhere around here.
I was in a store with a lot of beautiful, expensive dresses. I didn't look like myself, I looked like a teenage girl from the 50s. I was walking around just admiring everything in there. A young guy walked in wearing a zoot suit. He sat there and just kind of watched me walking around. After a few minutes he told me he would buy one of these dresses for me. I told him that he really didn't have to do that, but he insisted. I walked closer to him and he held on to me. All of a sudden we were in love with each other.
I was in an airport and getting ready to try and smuggle this marajuana-seaweed stuff. I got through the airport and everything and now I was in Chile (or some other south-american country). I realized that I didn't have my passport with me, and got really scared about getting back. As I realized how screwed I was the place started to look progressively less-friendly. I tried to just think about how much money we were going to make.

I Never Drink Soda

Dan = friend from SC

I went home for spring break and went back to work at color me mine. I also got another job making sandwiches at a restuarant. I wasn't sure that I had been clear about the fact that I was only home for one week. I mentioned this to one of my friends and they said that the place was probably going to be pissed.
I went into the sandwhich place to get a sandwhich for myself. There was one that looked like it had fish and vegetables in it, so I picked that one. The guy behind the counter said that it actually didn't have fish in it. So I picked a different sandwhich and the guy said that one wasn't very good. I told him I really didn't care and that I just wanted a sandwhich, so he started making me one.
I was in the dining hall and I noticed a big aquarium in the back of it. There were all sorts of tropical fish in it, along with a lot of dining-hall cups. I thought they looked cool in there. I got a cup for myself and started to fill it with soda from the machine. I saw Dan and he came up and put his arm around me. It made me kind of uncomfortable that he did that but I was happy to see him so I let it slide. Theo came up and said that he really wanted some soda. Then he noticed that Dan's arm was aroud my shoulder and I could tell it was bothering him. I tried to get Dan to take his arm off me without Theo noticing.
I was with Theo and we were at a church. The people there were really nice to us. We were getting dressed because we were going to go swimming with Them. There was a cat that I was playing with. We decided to leave instead, and we stole a bunch of sodas. Theo and I were now walking down trabuco and we were going to play some kind of prank. The cops drove by and we tried to act normal. I was enjoying the walk.

Backstroke Queen

Sarah Merkle, Shayna, Erin, Yana, Rose, Theo = friends from SC

I went to visit Erin at work at Joe's. Sarah Merkle, Shayna, Theo and some other people were there. Everyone I was with was 21 so they were all drinking. This kind of bummed me out. Sarah bought me a beer and I drank it but I felt really sketchy the whole time. Erin's manager, George, started closing up the shop. Theo and I were hanging around in there. Everyone was gone and we eventually found out that they all had been playing volleyball. We told them that we would have wanted to play. Erin said that they were going to have a swim competition tomarow and we could come to that.
Theo and I showed up at the pool the next day. Yana, Rose, Erin, George, and some other people were there. Everyone else had already started so Theo and I hastily got our bathing suits on and jumped in. We were all swimming laps across the pool. We swam one lap of freestyle, then switched to backstrok. I was basically losing by the end of the freestyle, but my backstroke was really good so I pulled ahead. Now we were all doing breaststroke and I started falling behind. Yana grabbed my arm and playfully started hanging on to me so I couldn't swim. She was squeezing me really hard and I was irritated that she was making me lose. I told her multiple times to let go of me, and I sounded really mad when I told her. When we got to the end of the pool I was so fed up that I grabbed her and held her underwater. When she came back up she was gasping for air and crying. Everyone freaked out on my and thought that what I did was horrible. Everyone was getting out of the pool and leaving. It was really hard for me to find my stuff for some reason and George had to wait for me to finish. I walked by Yana a few times who was crying, but I was still really mad at her. Not only because she was hanging on to me but because now everyone was super mad at me and I felt like it was her fault.
Theo and I were leaving the pool and he was giving me a hard time for what I did. I felt like no one was on my side and it was making me very mad. I screamed at Theo and told him that I never meant to hurt her and that I just felt really trapped and angry and didn't know what else to do. I got really angry as I was yelling at Theo and he kind of shrunk back from me and his body language was kind of begging me not to hurt him. I felt so horrible, everyone throught I was tottaly heartless. This group of people started to walk slowly up to me and surround me. They started pulling things out of my hands and tying things to my shoes. They all moved and spoke really slowly. I got the feeling this was some group that had formed to protest what I had done to Yana. They didn't bother me too much, but I started to wonder how long everyone was going to harass me about what I had done.
When I got back to campus I went over to Yana's house and left a bunch of notes in different places. In them I tried to apologize and explain what happened. I told her that I wanted to talk about it and we should work it out some time. I felt a lot better after I did that and felt like it would make things blow over.
