The Scholar and The Dog

Date: 8/31/2020

Different scenes again so I'm gonna just enumerate them. 1.)Scholars. We have a certain school kind of celebration. Though I'm already in college the setting happen in my school from my senior high school days. So the opening scene is me arriving at the front gate to meet up with my friends. There one my friend is selling something (Snacks: Lupak small and large and some balls said to be battered eggs) to help for her allowance (Jean). They told me that I should buy some since they considered me as someone rich (I'm not). Still I decided to buy a Lupak small and a set of battered eggs. The overall cost is 25 pesos. I paid for it then I've got this coin (10 pesos) that looks like a memorabilia since its the first time that I saw it. I don't want to use it however I don't have any other coins so I ended up paying with that one. After that scene we entered the school premises. The celabration is something like a commemoration for the Jollibee working students who incidentally is their scholars. One member that entered this dream is a classmate of mine years before (Ivan*) as they are being disperse throughout the audience area someone shouted for Ivan to seat with our section of the bleacher. So the program starts and the scholars going to showcase their talents. Most of the first number are dances and at some point it got me thinking that dancing** as solo will be much more entertaining and good. Ivan I saw in the background is looking tired which got thinking maybe she is not sleeping well and having a hard time balancing her workload. One of my seatmate got talking and I don't know how but we arrive to the topic about Ivan talent. I said that she's good but I hope that her partner in the video that I followed about her work in the company will join her in her number. Then suddenly I am talking to Ivan why is she doing this. Then she became upset saying that this is needed (the experiences) for her future carreer. That even if she want to stop she can't. I comforted her saying. Just a little four years to be sacrifice for the happiness of your reamining living years is nothing. I got the idea that she got a little offended with the living years part since it looks like I'm implying that she will only live a short time but instead of saying that she just smiled and thank me. The performance (two numbers) before her suddenly is someone from another company (Thai Milkshake - Name: Muay Thai) and got me thinking what are they doing there. After that Ivan's number got called (10) for preparation in the backstage. She goes then. The performance just before her is performed by our student council president. At first we are shocked by the elegance of her dress (blue princess/royalty like) however we are much shock when she started disrobing and dancing naked. Overall her dance is an interpretative dance representing the way human hunted animals and how said animals are left to fend for themselves or worst killed as well. At the end there's suddenly some kind of disclaimer that the show is created by a software usually for games. So with this disclaimer we realized that it's only a virtual reality/hologram and not the president herself is dancing. We also got that the game is made only by her and only guided by a professional game maker. 2.)It's a dog. So in this dream we are trapped in a basement like and a dog is being trapped there for years by his own parents. Something happen for the dog to feel confident again and escaped. However as we are escaping the door suddenly closed on us leaving me and a girl trapped inside. The only other way is through a hatch in the ceiling connecting that place to the dog's parents. Not wanting to be caught but much more not wanting to be stuck there, we opened the hatch and pulled down the ladder. As we are pulling suddenly there's a subtle pull at the other side when we remain stubborn in holding said ladder, the ladder stopped being pulled but the hatch is closed. On a small window suddenly someone is looking in a sec, then gone another sec. I got the feeling that the parent dog thought that her child is dead since from that vantage of window we are not clearly well seen. The hatch leading to the MC dog opened and we are rescue. We told our findings about the parent dog to the MC dog. We add that he might be the only alive dog to ever recieve a death trophy (similar to a death certificate). Then the dog start planning on how to reclaim it for himself. As he was distracted the butler who is on the MC dog's side congratulate hime on such ridiculous feat. Skip scene, then the dog is suddenly in front of a teller disguised as a cat to reclaim the trophy. The teller suddenly became nervous and said 'Cat?'. The dog thinking that he is discovered and decided to rush the teller but security personnels suddenly got there. As he was escaping he saw a wanted poster of the Cat person. Cursing his luck because of all the possible disguise why did his resembles greatly of a wanted person. Skip scenes again, and he is in a bus wearing a hat to cover himself and praying that no one mistaken him for the Cat person. As he was paying the conductor did not notice the sameness and he became relive however since there is no change he is asked to get the change from someone across his seat because her paid money is over the due fare. Instead of handing change he was handed a two piece of candy. Extra Extra The scene above about the game has its own story but I can't remember the exact sequence. *Ivan - the scene baffles me since the Ivan in real life works in Mcdonald and not Jollibee. **This dream shows that I got no talent for dancing. The dance performed are all stilted, lacks creativity and organization.
