These Dreams

Recently, I've been having dreams that somehow give a glance at my future. And no, I'm not a clairvoyant... though I wish I am so I'll know what problems will appear in my math and finance tests and answer them before the actual test.

I don't really know if dreams are just effects of my overactive imagination or there's more to that. Sayang! Kung merong elective about Dream Interpretation, kukunin ko yun!

During 3rd years, I took Th131 under Fr. Dacs. His oral exams were really stressful and had always put me to tears. I had a dream right before the 2nd orals that I got thesis statement number 5 in the orals. I signed up for an early morning schedule in the orals so I woke up early in the morning for last minute reviews and a flow for my orals. Since I had that weird dream, I decided to study more on the number 5 statement.

It was still early in the morning when I started walking towards the Theology department, still going through my outlines. When it was my turn, lho and behold, I was asked to explain number 5! Thank God I decided to review on it more.

Another time was when I took the exams for the Japanese Government Scholarships (Mombukagakusho). We took it last June 24 and the results will be annonced the next week. The waiting time was the most different. I couldn't sleep and couldn't concentrate on my studies. Then I had this dream that I passed. When I woke up, I wasn't relieved at all. I decided not to tell anyone about the dream because I remember my grandmother telling me that if I told anyone my dream, the dream wouldn't come true. I'm not superstitious but it won't hurt following her advice.

I called the embassy Wednesday afternoon and was so elated that I was one of the 16 people who passed the exams in the Luzon area. Meron pa sa Cebu and Davao. The week after that, I was supposed to have a personal interview before the embassy ranks us and sends the list to the Ministry of Education in Japan.

Well, anyway, I decided to post this because I had this dream last night. But I won't tell it... baka maudlot.
