LC Dreams

pockets3d

The LC does strange things to you. I had a dream there last week that I was walking into French but I didn't know anything.

Read this in another thread and it gave me the idea.
Yesterday i dreamt i had terrible hayfever and every tissue i took out of the box was a timetable for the leaving.

Anyone else having weird dreams lately?

flyaway.

Yeah, I always have weird dreams coming up to exams.

The other week I dreamed my English exam was in Japanese. It was terrifying and the examiner wouldn't listen to me. :mad:

Last night i dreamed about poetry question
5 poets came up, Rich and Kavanagh and Boland and 2 others that weren't on the course , but I was so disappointed that Dickinson didn't come up that I walked out of the exam
Few nights ago i had dream about paper 1,there was a question in composing part "What would you put in a basket?"

I dreamed that I went into English, had a blank period, then came out of the exam, not quite knowing what I had just did. I just decided I had some sort of trance and whatever I wrote was amazing. If only it were the same in real life...

I had a dream about my Irish Orals. The first questions was something like, "Hello, would you like to join the army?" (in irish of course) and I said something like "No because I am from Japan"
I'm not really sure what that all means. If the oral examiner actually looked like the one in the dream I would have FREAKED OUT.
Note: I'm not even from Japan.

I had the weirdest dream other the other night, I was in my history exam and I was doing a question on Hitler's freign policy and Hitler was the exam attendant and he kept trying to whisper stuff to mean about his policies and looking angry at wht i was writing, freaky..

I had a dream the other night where my English paper was in Irish. :eek: I told the examiner, and they had to go to a different school to get me a spare - I just had to wait there while everyone else was writing furiously.
A few weeks ago, I had another dream, where I was doing English Paper 2, but kept leaving the exam hall every 5 minutes to go for a walk. Then I came back in, everyone got sent home and the exam was cancelled.
English will be the death of me. :rolleyes:

i had a dream there at the weekend the manager where i work part time told me i had to work all day wednesday, freaky lol

The dream where I got my results was the worst one I had. I walked into the office to collect my results and the principal had a confused look on her face. She handed the sheet over to me and it was blank! Everyone was cheering with their A1's and I was left with a gradeless result sheet. I just felt like dying.

I had a dream that I got 585 points in the leaving, and I was so happy. When I woke up I was really really really disappointed, 'cause that's not gonna actually happen:(

Fook sake!!!:pac:

Why? Do you not want a good course and a good job after that course?

It's actually very normal, it's one of the mind's ways of coping with the stress.

I'm only surprised that in 15 posts no-one has had the one when they're in the exam hall and suddenly discover they forgot to get dressed, or forgot to put on trousers, or whatever.

That one is normally very common; as is ...

... the sleep in and miss the exam / go in a day late scenario

... get to the end of the exam and glance back over the answerbook to discover that the ink is rapidly fading and blurring on the page.

Ha,ye I thought about that, but then, thought what if I don't wake up in time & English paper 1 is over, that's when bad dreams become reality!

I've never had any of those dreams. :eek: Apart from the two I already mentioned, I've also had the one where you get your exam paper and you just suddenly lose the ability to write/have a massive mental block.

I had a dream were I forgot my pencil case. It was horrible. The examiner wouldn't let me leave so I had to sit there and watch everyone else doing the exam. Woke up in a sweat!:pac:

So this is you're evil plan,intercepting our dreams by plotting idea's in our heads for a bad nights sleep.
What's the bet tongights dream now is, go into exam late , naked & the ink start's to run off the pages.

Nope, just reassuring people that it's a very normal part of the process!

Just mutter "silly brain!", roll over and go back to sleep!

what.to.do

I dreamed last night that the only short story option was, "Write about a ginger on a bus.".

In my mind, I wrote furiously.


Another one was that I got 220 points, but an A2 in maths. I only had four subjects listed on my result sheet, so I rang the SEC, who said it would be fixed next week, but it would be too late for college.


The former was my favourite.

I had a dream where I got alopecia, from stress. Funny thing is I'm very relaxed.. Not nice seeing yourself bald though! Checked the pillow for clumps of hair when I woke up :P

Anyone ever get sleep paralysis before an exam? I'd be terrified if that ever happened to me! It happened to my cousin on the morning of his irish exam 3 years ago! :pac:

I get that about four times a week, especially when I'm stressed so probably will, yes.

randylonghorn

Well, it's a while since I did LC, and I have a feeling a couple of the more recent posters may be in the same situation tbh.

It may be time to hit the hay, lad!

Last night, I had the strangest LC dream, ever.
It started with everyone in my class, me included, sitting in one HUGE row. We were squished beside each other. and right up to the examiner's table, so he was staring at what we were writing.

The "paper" was more like a little booklet with a little index at the front telling you what question was where. There was a new section called "Secant Section" (I honestly have no idea why) and it was basically more comprehensions, but with extracts from our comparative texts.

It was actually a mix of paper one and two, and the poets that came up were Frost, Dickinson, Boland, and.... Emily Brontë.... who isn't on our course.

I don't remember the Frost or Brontë questions, but both the Dickinson and Boland questions were about describing in detail what happens in one particular poem. But the problem was that neither of the poems were on our course.

We were all able to chat with each other and the examiner was also chatting with us. The regular comprehension featured shapes you had to cut out of the paper and assemble to make things, I think it was a tractor.

When one of my friends saw the poetry section he said "BOLLOCK" and the examiner said "DO YOU KNOW WHAT BE QUIET MEANS?!", to which my friend replied. "DO YOU KNOW WHAT **** OFF MEANS?!". He was promptly escorted out with most of my class.

The next thing I know, I'm sitting on one of the tables, and there are two girls in the room chatting to each other, and they're in uniform. Despite the fact that my school is a boys only school. Then I picked up a violin and started to play it, using a green folder as the bow. As you do.

Sleepwalked to the door in my bedroom at 2am saying "I have to go now I have to go now"

I never sleepwalk!

Had a dream Kavanagh, Rich and Yeats all came up again and Hopkins (who I didn't do). And the exact same questions asked!

Rabbitandcavy

I had a dream where our English teacher was handing us out our results and I said to her ''Oh did I do well?'' and she had a really sad look on her face and shook her head. I woke up and thought it was real.

Shanee.

Had a dream i got an a1 in honours maths.. I'll still be dreamin in ten years time! :P

I had such a brilliant dream last night, really enjoyable.

Nothing to do with exams really, except little bits here and there but it was great. I invented a new creature in my dream!!! I can still picture it...great inspiration for an essay tbh.

PJelly, you poor demented soul!

My house was on fire, really bad.

I was running down the stairs the night before my leaving and shouted "Not without my f*cking notes!!" - ran back and ran back down with a pile, then said "Theres more!" ran back up and got the other notes and the laptop ha.
Meanwhile, the house didnt collapse!
