Bare-allels (Seriously, please don't hate me)

The spring musical at school is Peter Pan. I consider auditioning, but ultimately decide not to because I don't know my vocal range. Lara gets a decent part despite sucking.

Janet gets the part of Misty as A Villain (I kid you not. That's what the playbill said. "Janet as Misty as A Villain"). She gets a solo which is part almost-Christmas-song, part vaudeville-ish (she's dancing with a cane). I remember thinking that the set sucked because it was basically a porch, with posts and rails in the way of the performance. I see Misty sitting across the auditorium and we exchange O_o faces.

Will is the only boy that auditioned or something because he is cast as every boy in the play (I'd love to see that Captain Hook v. Peter Pan, wouldn't you?). He is explaining this to me as we walk to his house. We rode the school bus to somewhere nearish my elementary school (and nowhere near where he actually lives). I was a little confused about why we were disembarking so far away from his house, but didn't question it.

Apparently my subconscious goes for quantity over quality

1. Silk Market in Beijing with Kitty, Sunny, and Sunny's grandmother. I see something I want to buy, but the latter insists on bargaining for me. Later, she is buying a bracelet for me that I wanted to give as a present. I wonder out loud what the official bracelet of China is (wtf, self?) and she and the store keeper go find it for me. Later again (at Sunny's house?), I insist on paying back the five dollars I, apparently accounting for the rate of exchange, owe her.

2. My brother wants me to please wake him up at 7:15 AM.

3. Brother's girlfriend has left several pairs of her shoes in my room. I know they aren't mine because I do not wear flip-flops. (She does this IRL. Not in my room, but she has like six pairs of shoes at my mother's house.)

4. First day of school, sitting in English class. I have not written the several essays I was supposed to write. We're turning them in online. The structure is basically "On this page, type an introduction. On the next page, upload your paper." I am trying to fake it and write a bunch of essays really fast, when the teacher sits at the computer next to me. Also, we seem to be at my elementary school.

5. The back wall and corners of my panda guinea pig's cage are collapsing. She jumps down and runs straight into a pigloo, sitting on the floor. I suggest getting a new cage.

Pardon me while I remove this layer of dust...

I don't think this was the same place as that first pair of sequel dreams, but I am somewhere with my brother and someone else and we are trying to escape. I'm not sure how I knew that, though, as we were not together. I'm crawling through a very familiar, very large room, trying to avoid mostly unseen guards. Something happened (I think I collapsed or something. Pretty sure I didn't just get caught.) and scene change! Infirmary or something like that. Doctor comments on my bruised knees, Brother teases me, saying I must have been crawling wrong. I tell him my crawling was perfectly fine, thanks. Fin.
