The Truth Comes Out (S&D)
by Mia Davis
(Stanford, CA)
I had the craziest dream last night. So, it all started in my "dorm." It wasn't actually my dorm looking back on it, but it was the idea of my dorm. Anywho, I am taking the computer class offered by my RCC in my dorm. So, my RCC comes to my room and tells me that to complete the class I have to have a one-on-one with this kid in my dorm. So we begrudgingly go for a walk and he reveals to me the secrets of this one kid in my dorm, who randomly appears in this restaurant we end up at.. so we hide.
Anyways, of course it is raining AND also in this world gravity is really weak so I am trying to hold down this saucer looking thing to keep me floating but also keep me grounded. Anyways, I finally find out all this random information about the life and towns of *Jake Truman and finally I have heard too much. At this point, everything becomes slightly hazy and ultimately I wake up. Although explained horribly due to the nature of privacy and forgetfulness, it really was a super crazy dream. Trust me.
The End.
