You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25
minutes.

I have a repetitive dream -- Christmas is the next day and I have not
got presents for anyone -- I will have to show up without them.
Interpret that, Dr. Freud, please.

Yeah, mine is that tomorrow is the final exam for a college course,
and I remember that I have forgottent to go to that class all
semester...... I understand that is common.....
My dream variant is over sleeping and missing the exam.
The anxiety upon really awakening takes several
seconds to dissipate. One self argument that works well
to dissipate the anxiety is that my life isn't that
interesting anymore. Then I feel a real loss.

I have the missing the exam dream and the didn't study for the
exam dreams as well. What is interesting is that I was a good student
and never missed an exam and prepared for exams.
It may well be that those who do miss exams
and are generally sloppy about academics never have that dream.
