In reply to Angela S. There must be something about the structure -- having 5 minutes to get from class to class; not knowing if you'll have anyone to eat lunch with at the beginning of the semester; that lack of control must really stick with us.

In reply to Angela S. I had another dream about high school last night where they wouldn't let me leave even though I had to go to my grown-up job. This comment thread infected my subconscious.

In reply to Jodi. Yeah, and that's what really sucks. I'm 42 in these dreams and I'm married and have a kid and a college degree and I'm like "WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME BE HERE?"

In reply to Angela S. No kidding! In my dream I was so pissed that I had to go back and I was all "THIS UNFAIR!" and nobody would listen. I was a 41-year-old high school senior. It sucked.

I want to ask people over, say, 60 if they still have high school dreams. Last night I had the one where I hadn’t been to class since the first day and I wasn’t sure what room it was in and I had to do an oral report about a Doris Day song.

There is something wrong with the way school works if we are still having dreams about it 25 years later.
