All the time.

Not ALL the time, but pretty damn regularly given that it's been so many years. Heck, I'm not even in the same STATE as the college I went to anymore!
 
It was the best of time and it was the worst of time 😉. It's a shame that the drunkeness good times were often forgotten, but the exams on Monday still haunt me like a ghost.
 
Just the other night, I dreamt I missed the finals and forgot to turn in the final term papers. I worry too much.
 
I do highschool way more often the college. Mine are usually the forget locker combo, forget where locker is, forget where/which class I need to go too type.
 
Yes - kinda. My recurring nightmare involves me still being in the Navy and having to go on an extended deployment. I got out of the service back in 1992... 🙁

I thought I was the only one!

I feel for you, I still have dreams that I'm back in basic training. 🙁

me too
army.. ugh


and the school thing
 
i do, but haven't recently.

i am in highschool... can't remember my locker combination.... late for class... late for class....miss a test....can't remember my schedule.... late for class.... late for class.


it's a reaction to the stresses of the day.
 
I get them too and graduated about 10 years ago. Usually its the same thing, for some reason I stop going to a class and by the end of the semester I realize I have totally forgotten I was ever in the class, so I've missed all of the exams and I'm panicking that I'm going to fail.

Unfortunately for me, the dream is based somewhat on fact. There was one class that I never went to and when I looked up where/when the final was (location of all finals were published in this one packet) I read the wrong section... like I was in section 1 and I read the time/location for section 2. So I was studying away in my room and my neighbor comes over, who happened to be in the same course but the other section and asked me how the final went. I said I don't know, I'm studying now, its at 2pm. So he says he thought mine was yesterday because his was at 2pm that day. We both get this panicked look, check the finals book and realize mine was yesterday. I just sit there in stunned silence, I just missed my final! So I met with the professor, who scolded me out for not going to class as he said he announced the final time every class for the past 2 weeks, which I never went to any of those. Fortunately he let me write an essay instead, which I got a B on, so I still did ok in the class. But I always figured that was the basis for my nightmare.
