Dream Journal Ultimate

(I woke up at around 5am and even got out of bed a little, but then went back to bed as I intended to wake up at 7am. I thought I would just lay there until 7 reaches as I wasn't feeling sleepy at all. However, I was wrong because I woke up at 7.45 after a series of weird and intense dreams.) ******* I'm having my friends over in my apartment (it doesn't look like my RL apartment, but in the dream it feels like my place). We have raised a huge amount of money and were discussing what to do with it. My cousin Jim shows up. I want to introduce him but he seems acquainted with the group already. He is ignoring me to my surprise (as IRL he's always excited to see me). I'm also thinking who the hell invited him here? Soon, I realize everyone is ignoring me, and my suggestions, and only listening to Jim. It's like I'm not even in the room. Then it hits me that all of them make 6-figure salaries and huge tonnes from investments while I'm beyond poor. Feeling out casted, I retreat to my bedroom and close the door. I stare at myself in the full-length mirror. At first, my reflection stares back but soon it becomes her own person. I can see through the mirror that she's moving around the room in the background, arranging stuff. Then I turn around to see if she is really in the room. I freak out when she starts walking towards me. Her look is stern, her eyes unmoving and steadily fixed on me. She moves in a straight line. I'm too terrified but I just stand there. She holds my head and starts twisting my neck forcefully to one side. I jump awake. (Immediately I wake up, I realize that I had been sleeping on my back and my neck positioned poorly on the pillow. I would've have woken with a stiff neck if I continued sleeping this way. So, I turn to my side the way my reflection had creepily tried to turn me. :-D Then I fall asleep again.) ********** I arrive at a basement which has an elevator that's supposed to take me to the school grounds. Although I know I'm supposed to be in class, I never get to see myself there, or coming from school. But I have used the elevator at least 3 times in the dream. The scene is somehow fixed in this strange building with the spooky, dark elevator. All the times, I enter the building via a basement door, and take this one elevator which is the middle one of the three. The other 2 are permanently closed as they don't take people to the school grounds. The elevator goes up and I alight at the rooftop then join a flyover that heads to school. So, as usual I'm at the elevator again today, but strangely it delays. It has never delayed before. The door usually opens immediately one presses the button. Irene from campus finds me waiting and tells me to push the button. I said I already have. Not believing me, she pushes it herself but the elevator doesn't open. She suggests we go to the rooftop via the stairs as we wait for the elevator. I gladly agree. At the rooftop, I can see the road to school. All this time, it hasn't registered now that we have made it past the stairs to the top, I can just walk to school. I chat with Irene as a few other people join us. I also see many elementary school kids in green uniform seated in groups and playing games. The lady who works at the desk in the basement comes up to inform us that the elevator has arrived. I rush downstairs so I'm among the first to use it. As I enter the dark, cold lift, I realize that I don't have my sweater. (I don't even remember having a sweater when I came). I must have left it at the rooftop. So, I step out the elevator and rush to the rooftop via the stairs hoping to get back before the elevator leaves ( :-D crazy, I know). I don't see my sweater where Irene and I sat. I'm worried that I won't survive the school without a sweater because it's a cold season. I check the sweaters of all the elementary kids that were seated next to us. One says that saw Irene leave with my sweater, and she's at the laundry space. I catch up with Irene. She's carrying tattered rags of what were once sweaters. I ask her about my sweater but she says she didn't pick it. I ask her about the old tatters, she says that she's going to unweave them and use the threads to make me a new sweater. But first she has to wash them. I go back to where the kids were. They still insist Irene had the sweater. I give up and go back to the elevator. A motherly woman gives me a flask of hot water to go with, in case I needed to take something to keep me warm. She escorts me to the elevator but when the door opens, the space has become so tiny. I feel like I will suffocate if I got in it. So, I place only the flask and tell her that I will get in once the space widens. The woman asks me if I saw what was under the stone in the center of the elevator as I placed the flask. "What stone?" I turn around and a stone is actually there. I bend down to look underneath and I see brown poop the length and shape of a sausage. Arrgh!!! Disgusted, I walk away really fast. Away from this woman and that strange building.
