Two main parts
A:
It was nighttime on some shore. It must have been Hawaii, Indonesia (Bali) or... somewhere fictional. The beach had a large hump in it, seeming more like a snowdune where one might sled only they'd have sled into shallow waters. I was with a bunch of kids, including George, all hoping to learn how to wakeboard. George was pretty confused and I tried to relate things to Snowboarding... except he's never snowboarded before. A lot of help I was! The kids were getting restless and chatty (half giving advice, half bitching) so I got gutsy and attempted to wakeboard for the first time eve. I know my board was shaped more like an oceanfish (black with red highlights, a high grade plastic, ergonomically shaped to fit my bum) and George's was blue and more... normally shaped. I grabbed the handles on either side of my crazy not so wakeboardy- contraption and slid down the sand dune of the beach. Initially it was rough but once I hit the water my movement became effortless and I glided across the surface. It was breathtakingly fun and mesmerizing. After sliding for sometime I looked up behind me to see the kids, a reasonable distance away, and felt super accompkished.
B:
This time I was in a house, perhaps a friend's apartment on campus. We were watching the princess bride on a small tv in a tv cabinet when commercials or some other flaws came up. In anycase I decided it'd be best to watch the movie on blurry (since I actually own it on blurry) but reconsidered since bluray only really makes a difference on hdtv's. We left the living room to investigate some strange sound or some other phenomena from other rooms. This friend was female, the lighting was decent (florescent or cheap dorm lighting) and since there were no windows I can't accurately guage what time it was: i guess around 5 or 6.
Walking past the kitchenette, the dinning table, and the front door we came across a small room tucked into one side of a closet and peered in. Strange music, a sence of ceremony I really would rather not interrupt, deja vu, and fear consumed me. I want to say it was a Catholic church doing some sort of ceremony but it felt more like the evil church in Eternal Darkness doing dark rituals. It was creepy for sure.
I turned around quickly (having only stepped inside a few feet: there was lots of draperies, tapestries, bright lighting (natural, candlelight maybe, and lots of the color red) and entered the apartment again. Dreamscape had shifted and instead I was in a nice home in Indonesia. I had family (probably distant relatives-- in laws or close friends of the family) and we all planned to go somewhere awesome-- surf? hike? Something outdoorsy, adventuresome, and really exciting. It sure beat the dreary boredom of their home. Walking towards the front entrance I picked up my shoes and watched some rip off One Piece from their crappy front entrance TV. Chopper was a doctor but more fox like, there was a pokemon super hero involved, other characters looked slightly different, etc.
I walked back in to see why everyone wasn't around, thinking along the lines of "WTF Guys, are we leaving or what?!" but everyone was sitting down in chairs watching some TV program. In my frustration I left.
