Yep! Never can remember my locker combination, also that I am in different locations in school, getting from one place to another and that always seems to involve the PE locker room location, going down a stairwell, or crossing over the auditorium. Strange !Also about trying to reach someone but having to get through water and I can't make any headway. Or the one about my teeth falling out and crunching on them or spitting them out. UGH!! Read that one is a sign about the fear of getting old. Well, I'[m old now and some of the teeth have gone, and I don"t dream it anymore. LOL

When I was going to college and working full time I used to have nightmares about going to class, having an exam, and having no idea about the subject matter...totally unprepared. The reality was that, I was always prepared but those nightmares were very disturbing.

I haven't had that dream of dialing an emergency number - unable to complete it for some resaon - for many years. It started in preteen years, back when one had to 'know' the number for the "ambulance" because there was no 911 yet.
I came to recognize that it was a stress dream, occuring when I felt most out of control of things in my life. As I've gotten older I've gotten more aware (and accepting) of the fact that we are really rarely "in control". :-)
But that unfinished high school thing baffles. I didn't care for high school all that much, still feel it was, in general, one of more depressing periods of my life. The dream has nothing to do with HS, I'm sure, but I can't for the life of me figure out what I'm leaving unfinished......epecially that I want to keep hidden. I'm pretty much an open book!

OMIGosh, thanks for posting this. It's so good to know that I'm not the only one. Running through the halls... where's my class? Where's my locker? Which class is next? Why won't anyone help? Is this my class? Why do I have to go through one class room to get to the one I need? Why are they all looking at me? Who moved the office?
