I Had a Dream Last Night...

I had a dream last night, in which I fell in a muddy stream, almost like a gutter. I was holding on to rocks in an awkward position. I find a small size cowboy hat, a book that I wanted to read. Somehow I am happy that I have found those. Nobody comes to help me even though there are quite a few people at the banks of this disgusting stream. I am covered with thick layer of clothing and yelling "help". I then assume that the cloth almost covering my mouth is the reason why people can not hear me. I then balance myself to get out, and my socks, shoes are soaked. After I am out of the water, I see people leading their normal lives and even though some saw me there, nobody bothered. There was an equal mix of Indians and foreigners around. I walk into a Mall and want to buy something and then I realize that my bag is missing. (This is my company bag, a big black laptop backpack, with Directi written on it, no laptop though) I see one of my friends, who is now in Bangalore and ask for his assistance. He starts inquiring and looking around.
The clothes made me feel like I was in McleodGanj, the Stream felt like a mix of Mumbai gutters and the beautiful Bhagsu waterfall stream; and the malls+my Bangalore friend made it seem like I was in Bangalore.
All in all I was upset and lonely at times. I had to come out of the gutter situation myself and I still do not know if I ever found my bag again that had my wallet, with my IDs, CCs, License etc. I was searching and searching and then my eyes were open. It seemed like 7:30 AM, but to my horror, it was 10:47AM and I had a 11:00AM drumming class, that is half and hour away from my place. wwhhhaacccckkk.....I jumped out of the bed and rest is as usual, chaotic.

  2. It's dream!! But no, I didn't get hurt :P
    I was quite shocked at how indifferent people were. But I guess that happens all the time (in reality).
