I was in the class. I seem to be in the middle of an examination. My teacher, Miss Yati who is a real former teacher. I remembered that I failed her past examination so she gave me another chance to attend this examination with the new batch of students. I looked at the question asking about writing an essay about some Chinese thing so I jolted down some points. Then a was distracted and began talking to the student beside me. Before I know it, examination time has ended. I was shocked as I have not really wrote even a proper paragraph. The little points I wrote down were in Chinese language. What was I thinking! My teacher can't read Chinese language! I had to do something, I had to write more! I quickly forced my brain to think of what to write then I saw the teacher left the classroom. She has collected all the student's exam paper and did not waited for me.
I quickly ran out of the classroom grabbing my exam paper trying to catch up to her to hand it to her. However, she was nowhere on sight. I quickly walked to the faculty to look for her office but then I was distracted again as soon as I reached the faculty building. There is this large pond in front of the faculty. A large book floating on the water caught my eye. The front cover is facing me and it says "Beetles of the World" or maybe "Beetles of Borneo". It is quite a thick book and old-looking too. I lay open half submerged on the water surface. Strangely, there were real beetles - large black dung beetles feeding on the book. As I observed it, I think a guy swam over and entered the book. The book at slowly moved and grew into a van. I saw the man as the driver in the book van as he drove the van out of the deep pond and drove away. I was really confused but I remembered what was I here for so I quickly continued my journey.
As I get closer to the building, another teacher that I know - Miss Tina, called out to me asking who am I looking for. She thought I was looking for Miss Maria from the Business Department but I said it's not her that I'm looking for. In real life, both of these teachers never taught me. Miss Tina is from the Business Department and Miss Maria is not.
I finally got inside the building and at the foyer, I realized I was with two of my friends - Ho and another guy. Suddenly I saw a pink spider on the floor so I pointed it to them. I wanted to photograph it so I took out my camera and got down. It was moving around so it make photography tough. What a cool pink-colored spider I thought. But as I was photographing it, I realized that I am just photographing some kind of dark brown cockroach!
And some point, I looked at my examination paper and was shocked to see that it is soaking wet and tearing apart. What a terrible condition it is in! How could I submit this to her!
I was really feeling hopeless and guilty. I was given a second chance to pass the test but I threw it away again.
When I woke up, I felt so happy as it was just a dream. Thank you for reminding me to try my best in not failing the second chance I am given.
