the damn dream returned again...

I have a recurring nightmare.  I wrote about this on a "25 things" meme a while back:
20. I am never ever ever going back to school, and I decided this 14 years ago. Up until about 3 years ago, I was still having regular nightmares of walking into a class I'd been skipping out on (since I kinda knew the subject already) and then having the mid-term plopped in front of me, 2 days after it was too late to drop the course. The dreams have finally stopped, but I'm never going to put myself through that crap again. Ever.
It came back last night, with a variant: I actually missed the mid-term itself, and was trying to figure out how to talk to the teacher about it without seeing the returned test with answers on it that everybody else in the class had in front of them.

Never going back, ever ever ever ever ever.

Funny, I've had that nightmare before too, tho I was thinking I was back in college 15+ years ago.

I still have this dream, too. I dream - constantly, even now - that there's a required math class I've not done the work for.

Used to have a similar dream, but it was all of highschool--somebody found I hadn't done enough credits, and I had to repeat the whole year. In the last 10 years or so, it's changed to I have to repeat freshman year of college (thus adding the fact that there is no dorm room space, so I end up in a bed hanging out a window or in closet). Haven't had either in ca 2 years. Wonder, having read your note, if I will now have that dream again.

I feel your pain.
