Since we’re sharing dreams now, I’d like to share mine:

I’ve dreamt about getting into Princeton twice since I decided I was going to apply ED, but they’re both very bizarre. The first time was in August. I had just finished reading Crime and Punishment before going to sleep. In my dream, I found myself in Siberia in a dilapidated house (holes in roof, snow falling, I’m wearing many layers of heavy fur, and I’m cowering in a corner of the room). I get an old-fashioned telegram informing me that I got into Princeton…

My second dream occured roughly a month ago. This time I was actually AT Princeton for an accepted-students gathering. I’m there for an overnight stay. I go into my dorm room…and it’s dilapidated as well (holes in the roof, creaky floorboards, exactly like my Siberia house except without the snow).

What is it with me and dilapidated housing? I’ve wondered if my two dreams mean I’m getting in but I get stuck in a crappy dorm room (I wouldn’t mind that). Really weird…
