Graduation/Wedding

Date: 11/9/2018

I have had recurrent dreams about “graduating” for many years. In this one, I am still in nursing school. I am taking the blood pressure of several of my patients. Another student is following me around and keeps on correcting the way in which I wrap the cuff around my patient’s arm. This makes me very annoyed. Next we are graduating but for some reason the school administration does not want to give us our diploma. The school had planned a very conventional graduation with all the students wearing a wedding dress, with veil etc but on the appointed date, half of the students appeared wearing the wedding dress while the other half did not. One of the administrator speaks to us. I want to get his attention but it is difficult. When I do, I tell him that there is nothing else to discuss, we just want to graduate and if some want to do it dressed as brides to collect their diplomas and others do not, this is ok. He consents. Those of us not wearing a wedding dress walk into the graduation hall in the way we had rehearsed. I am the first and take my place; the girls wearing wedding dresses are already there.... I must have gotten my diploma but don’t remember. On the next frame of the dream I start looking for a bathroom. Whenever I find one, it is either busy or dirty so I decide not to go. I keep on running into this very pale, short and skinny female student...her hair is almost white...she could be a gnome, she is always very pleasant to me (she is actually a kid I knew in grammar school).
