So I was thinking about a reoccuring dream I get now and then, school related. Typically it's forgetting locker or combo, but a new theme in the past years is forgetting to go to a certain class or classes. Usually math. I'll be sitting in another class or at home then suddenly realize "wait, when is the last time I even went to Math? Have I been missing the class?". I wake up in panic and then asking myself the same in real life "Wait, when *IS* the last time I went to Math?" Then a few moments later I remember I'm not in school anymore. Been over 10 years now.

Well looks like this is super common, just decided to google it for fun. Kinda crazy. http://forevertwentysomethings.com/...out-missing-class-when-im-not-even-in-school/

Interestingly with lot of people it's math too! This is kind of freaky.

Yep that's what happens to me, it's the weirdest thing. Today I had a slightly different version. in the dream, I was actually thinking about those very dreams that I get. Then while thinking about the dream I realize that I really was missing a bunch of classes. Was trying to think of what the classes were, I knew it was math, and a bunch of others, and then it occurred to me that I kept going home after lunch, for some reason that just became my routine. Show up for the morning classes, eat lunch, then go home. So I was missing all the afternoon classes. I was panicking for a moment, then woke up, still panicking, then a sigh of relief when i realized I'm not actually in school anymore.

It probably has to do with the fact that schooling is a huge chunk of one's life, so even when it's over, your mind is kinda still in that same mindset. It probably never goes away completely. Having to do good on a test, etc.

I have a recurring dream about missing class, class I've forgotten to go to for weeks.
Sometimes I can't find the class. I'm wandering the halls, peeking in rooms, maybe even sitting down for a bit before realizing it's the wrong class ... and so on.

Another dream is having my car stolen. It's not something that worries or even occurs to me when awake really, but in sleep mode ... it keeps getting stripped of parts, or totally missing, and I discover it to my horror.

I never dream of missing Class ... I guess because I've always had SO much of it :p :)

Ethereum blockchain takes bloody ages to sync.

Blackchain tech is neat, but I really don't know how scalable it really is. They each run into scaling issues with age.

I think the issue is not a lot of people really realize you need to forward ports so there probably arn't all that many nodes that are running. The documentation is kinda scarce and does not really talk much about those technicalities.
