Emails, Birthdays, Elsa and My Sister the Troll

I just received an email from my former internship boss saying that I should make a comeback in the office by applying for one of their open positions. I was still hesitant about applying because I haven't fixed my CV again and it's been a while since I last applied for a job so my anxiety about interviews is going haywire. My co-interns even shared the post on their social media account so a lot of people got interested. I really don't know what to do or reply. At the same time, it was also mu cousin's birthday and it was held in our house. It was weird because they have their own house and all family events were held there. It was time for singing happy birthday so everyone gathered in the dining room. My cousin blew the candle even before we finished the song. Mom called my name and asked me to take her and little sister's picture with the cake. I was in a weird angle so the pictures came out blurry. I was eating at the table when my family was already munching on desserts. My cousin was mixing a salad for shawarma and that got my attention. Apparently, my uncle was grilling some meat for shawarma. My grandma told me to finish the food already so we could go home but I said that I still want some shawarma. My aunt suddenly told me that my hairline in thinning and graying and that I should have it checked out. I got irritated and it wasn't feeling good with the anxiety I felt earlier. The shawarma meat was finally brought to the table and my cousin placed some veggies and rice on my place. I was confused and a bit disappointed because I was expecting pita wrap. It was already night time and there was a performance happening on our driveway. My brother and I were by the entertainment room but we could still see it since we have this wall that is 70% windows. I think it was a class performance and they were singing Let It Go by Idina Menzel. There were multiple boys dressed up as Elsa and they keep on popping up at different locations wherever the light beamed. With the song coming to an end, one Elsa stood on a chair and reached up, and our garage light lit up as Idina sang "the cold never bothered me anyway." From my peripheral vision, I saw someone running and by the time the song ended the light beamed at the center and it was my sister wearing a child's dress with a pineapple leaves headdress above her head. I thought that she looked like that troll that a certain TV series show at the end of the credit scene. I don't if it was a real show or did my dream just made that up.
