Intruders in the mansion

Something was really off. I was going to a new term at school, and the campus was suddenly huge. It was also a hotel and I was staying there. I was trying to find my new class in the basement and needed to go on so many elevators to get there. I was running late. Along the way I guess I lost my laptop. I get to class a little late, which was fine. I told my friend about my laptop and she helped me track down where it is. It was moving really fast and was miles and miles away. The icon looked like Jack, indicating it was him who had my laptop. I call him and he said he found it in the garage so someone must have stolen it and dumped it in the garage. He brought it back to me and I was waiting for him to return. Later I go to my house. My house was a mansion. My mom and dad were redecorating. Suddenly we had a huge addition to the house, a large sunroom that overlooked the ocean. I bought new shoes and tried them on. They were a different size of the shoes I already have, but when they came they looked different. My mom and I decided the old shoes were better. There was a party happening at the mansion with all of my classmates, and I had a lot of classmates. Things started becoming more and more strange and offputting. I would start walking around, but people would be whispering. I found out there were intruders. I didn’t know if they were dangerous. I was running around to different areas and kept forgetting something was wrong. I saw the girl I liked and impressed her with basketball but suddenly there was a lot of pasta I needed to eat. I couldn’t get the timing right. When I was supposed to boil the pasta I instead put the shrimp in the boiling water. It was a disaster. I decided to throw away the pasta, which was also a disaster. It got messy. Then more people were whispering and it was getting late. Something was more urgently happening. I go to my parents room, the new huge room, and wake them up, telling them we need to do something or hide or go somewhere. Nowhere here was safe but I didn’t even know what was happening. I wake up.
