"I was in school but we were going on some kind of field trip. There were three of us going. My brother and a girl I didn't know. Everyone had backpacks packed for it. We were going up a mountain. As we were walking i realized I forgot to bring a sleeping bag but the cute girl walking next to me said she brought an extra I could use. We got to a steep part and it was covered inside a large tent. We went into it and started climbing. I was held up by the people in front of me I was last in line. I started to slip because I couldn't go faster. Everybody started slipping and went to the back of the tent. A wind gust came and blew the tent of the mountain and it was suspended out in the wind but wasn't falling. It was held by the wind and some ropes."

"4.2.26 I was a newly wed and my new husband carried a solemn expression. We, my new husband and His ex-wife were in a room and it appeared that he was taking in the fact that he was newly married. I had the utmost respect for him because he exuded so much dignity. He had the integrity of a real man. He didn't acknowledge me as his new wife at first, he seemed confused but I was patient. At one time, he was having a conversation with his Ex-wife privately and then he became aware that he had me as his new wife and he was delighted and kissed me. We never consummated the marriage or laid together. Next I was in a church where they were having a program. There were so many people in attendance and I was one of the officials in the background observing. One vsiting ministry got up to sing but they obstructed the view for most to see what was happening on the pulpit and that made me angry. Next, my job was having a picnic and I walked throughout this windy, Hilly park and I couldn't find any of my coworkers so I left. Now, I'm in the train station in New York, trying to get directions and purchasing a ticket to get to my destination. "
