Rude Awakening

I had a long day today. School was normal, but I was very tired by the end of the day. I had to go to the bank and the post office, but I didn't waste time. When I got home, I collapsed on my bed and fell asleep almost immediately.

While I was snoozing, I had a really good dream. It was like everything important that I'm thinking about right now, strung together for my mind's entertainment. I thought it was really a look at how emotional and depressed I feel right now. It was an unbiased perspective of my feelings about what is happening in my life. The dream was happy, but it was sad, too, especially looking back on it. I think the message of the dream was how important close friendship is to me but how afraid I am of losing it.

All of a sudden, I heard the punishingly loud noise of someone knocking on my bedroom door. It was my dad telling me to get up. Why did the dream have to end? I glanced at my alarm clock and saw that I had been asleep for almost 2 hours. It felt like 15 minutes while I was dreaming. I knew the dream was important and that I would forget it soon, so I wrote it down in my diary before I emerged from my room. I plan to look over it again tomorrow morning. It's not that hard to understand what this dream is telling me, it's just reinforcing what I'm going through in real life. Honestly, do I need the reminder? All I need is some support.
