In this dream I was needed to travel one year into the future. I was never told what the purpose of doing this was, but I decided to go anyway. I had to get in a car to do this (like back to the future) but I didn’t have to drive it. After waiting a while and getting weird stares because I was starting the time machine in the middle of a mall, it finally worked and I ended up in a park with trees and everything. I went to my house and pretended that I was myself from a year into the future, and my parents told me that I had school the next day and my play was that day as well. I got nervous because I had no clue what the play was about, but remembered I could just let the future me do it. I went upstairs and looked at my phone camera roll to find myself slightly disappointed. After a few minutes of looking, I decided to go to my school. Everyone there seemed to be really interested in talking about the year 1837. You know how every month there’s a new meme? That was the meme; the new hot topic. People had signs saying 1837 all over the place — but something else seemed to be off. After only a few minutes of hearing the whispers and seeing the points from other people I realized they knew my mission. They were all part of it and I still don’t know why. While my dream had ‘jump cuts’ from place to place, I suddenly found myself in a workshop near the park I landed in. I looked around and saw the time machine car, then saw Garrett Watts (that one YouTube personality everyone is suddenly interested in). “Do I know you during this time?” He smiled and softly replied, “Nope, I’m just here to help!” It appeared that while I was completing this mission, I only had one day to stay and he was helping me get prepared to leave. While all of this was happening, a strange man holding a laser gun burst through the door. “You shouldn’t be able to complete this mission!” He yelled this at the top of his lungs. He waved the gun around and I tried to hide, but I eventually decided to run out. Another jump cut. Everyone in the school was with me in the place I landed, including my friends, to say goodbye and to wish good luck. Everyone began to cheer for me. Once the cheering slowed, I heard someone say “What if the future changes now that she knows it?” Everyone looked around in curiosity until an unknown man replied “It’s never changed! It has always worked!” After having to say goodbye to the people in the crowd, I asked my friend a question. “What’s the sudden hype about 1837?” My friend looked offended and gave me a blank stare. Everyone got quiet. I walked back to the workshop to get in my time machine. Once I walked in, I was greeted by my best friends and Garett. They were all wishing me good luck and looked so happy for me. I hugged my friends goodbye all at the same time, then went over to Garett and hugged him. I waved goodbye and went into the time machine.
