May 16th

1) I went to get my hair cut at some big department store. I walked in, and while the salon area was nice, the rest of the place was a dive. It was like some old ghetto house. The carpets were green and blue splotchy. The walls were sort of a camel cover with all sorts of water stains. It smelled. There were bugs. I sat in a chair waiting to get my hair cut, but no one was really coming over to help me at all. For some reason, my mom showed up, and she made tacos. I was mortified because the house was so disgusting. I did not want to eat... I did not even want to sit down. Afterwards we tried cleaning up, but it was hard because everything was so disgusting.

2) I was at work... I had my glasses on, and socks, no shoes. I walked from my cubicle around the front to get my mail. I walked past the IT room and everyone in there was watching hockey. I got around to the mail but it was difficult for me to see. Yassara was there, and some other guy who worked with us, though I am not sure it was someone who really works with us. We talked about hockey. As we (Yassara and I) walked back, we stopped by this huge pile of fruit and juices. But we heard just then that they would no longer be selling juices at our school. Since it was the last day, we hatched a plan to make our OWN. We each grabbed up a bunch of mandarin oranges. I had strawberries back in my cube, so we were going to make our own strawberry orange juice. I had 4 in one and 5 in the other hand. I could not see well, my glasses were gone. Yassara and I knew that Ted (the maintenence guy) had his crew out after us because we were not supposed to take all of those oranges. She takes off with someone else, doing her best to avoid detection. Chip is there, I ask him what he thinks I should do, go up, down, etc. He says that I should ask some students where pigment is. And Ted has to be around because Chip said he would listen to him explain where it is, then Ted would pretend Chip did not exist and explain it to me and send me on my way, then I would be in the clear. We go to do that, but three of Ted's gang walk past... I am unsure if they see me or not, butI take off running. Its hard because the floor is linoleum and I have socks on. Plus I am trying to hold on to the oranges. I run down a long hallway and Chip is looking out for Ted. I race up stairs two at a time and make a beeline for my locker. I am now in my jr high school.... going to my 9th grade locker. I figure if I can just make it there and throw in the oranges, though I am not sure if I remember the combination or not. I race towards it, and I put in the combo, and it even opens.... but I cannot get them in. I had put them into a bookbag and I could not shovethe bookbag into my locker. Ted's gang comes around the corner and spots me. At the other end of the hall, more of his people. I race away from the closest group down the hallway. I manage to slip past them... I turn down into the next hallway and Jae and Karen (people from the science dept) are there andhave a rope they pull out between them to make me trip. I push Jae and he drops the rope and I run past. I keep running, but I am so tired. I *think* I get caught.... I should also mention during all of this that "Nobody Gonna Break-a My Style" is playing in the background. I wake up panting.
