My dreams of colors and falling and meadows and trees have been surfacing in my mind quite often lately. Every time I wake up to screaming. My screaming. The dream isn't necessarily a bad one, not at first, but close to the end, it's unbearable. I always seem to scold myself as I sit up and dry my cold sweat-dampened forehead. "Stupid Olivia," I would say, "you're stupid, Olivia Rochelle Crawford. You can't get this restless sleep and keep your grades up at the same time," I would always scold, "You could fall asleep in class and miss homework."

Every morning is the same, the same dream, the same shower, changing of clothes, cereal, brushing of hair and teeth, and leaving for school. "Maybe today will be different," I wonder aloud as I walk to get the bus.
School is normal, just as expected. I meet up with a couple of friends of mine, and each of us walk to class. If it was an exciting day, I would have known, and so would have Daniel and Kinti, two brothers that have called themselves my friends since the fourth grade. Of course, they always try to get me to tell them the disturbing dreams I have, but they always fail as I tell them it was something stupid like a unicorn eating a rainbow.

I thought it was going to be a boring day, until I got to Sociology. That day we were to read about why people believe in ghosts, and a made-up realm that people made out their fear and imagination. This intrigued me, because I am one of those people who believe in spirits. Mr. Shields, though, did not, which started up a debate.
