I'm not sure if I had two interconnected dreams or not, but the first part sure felt different. I was walking in a store with my mother looking at different things and I get sidetracked by this purple glass platapus. I don't know why but for some reason I end up taking it around the store with me. And then things get really different, kind of like the whole getting out/finished with school feel. It was really sunny (almost in a golden sort of way) and I was waiting for a couple of friends near this sort of cabin-esq house. I think I was tinkering with some sort of car part when whomever I was waiting for showed up. Then the view seemed to change and the cabin thing was bigger and there were more people around.

From the inside it seemed like a class was going on at the upper level (where I was seated). I have no idea how I got inside this place, but I remember hearing two people talk to someone about being married even though one of them didn't sound like he remembered it. Outside it was glorious, in a fall sort of way. I walked on this stone like walkway and a spring seemed to bubble up and flow into a river a short distance from where I was standing. To my right it looked like a guiser was going off every couple of seconds. An injured dog caugth my attention as it was either trying to swim or escape another dog (that showed up). I took off running trying to catch the injured dog, but the other kept trying to get in the way. I remember holding this waterlogged branch and shoving it in the other dog's face trying to get it to back off. Eventually I get the injured dog out of the water and back to the cabinthing. From there, things look different again as the people are now dressed in pink button up shirts and tan pants. And it seemed more mechanized too. By this point I'm waking up hearing Catalyst lyrics (but there is no outside music)
