"DREAM:
Enormous mansion visit with other Fulbrighters. Exterior and some interior architecture was very classical-looking, cool and antique-y, but lot of actual construction (i.e. bedrooms) inside the mansion was surprisingly modern. I tried to go inside every bedroom to see what it was like just because I am very curious. In one room I found three beds tucked under a low overhang in the wall and I noticed there was a human hand sticking out of it (I was also looking for abandoned bodies in the rooms, for some reason) but when I touched it the person responded by purposely scaring me (Jeremy?). The mansion was HUGE, large enough to hold a city inside of it. I eventually left the group I had entered with (Leslie and Caitlyn?) because * (Fulbright) appeared and was acting really affectionate towards me. He kept putting his head on my shoulder and gently kissing the top of my head. At first I thought that, because he's gay, it was just sort of a fatherly thing.But then he asked me, and I found out he had asked other people too, about the morality of being gay.I took this to mean, then, that he was rethinking it and possibly interested in me. Then % (also Fulbright), who to my knowledge is not gay, got jealous because he apparently had some latent love-feelings for *.
A bunch of us ate ice cream together (I remember that Ilana got raspberry sherbet) and then when everyone else left I ate their leftover ice cream in greedy gulps, discovering along the way that there were tiny laminated pictures of everybody's family hidden in their tubs of ice cream (oh, did I mention they were TUBS?) So I licked off all the pictures and saved them for my friends.
Later I was by myself in a lagoon-like area inside the massive mansion. I had to use my fingertips and toes to slowly move myself across a tiny ledge along the wall above the murky water during a section where there was no boardwalk. There, also clinging to the wall, was Markiplier. I asked if he was being recorded (so I would know if there was a chance I might appear in one of his videos). He gave a noncommittal creepily-whispered answer so I tried to play it cool and be really witty just in case.
I kept seeing an aerial view of the mansion's interior, which was circular and had a big lake in the middle. I saw there was a cathedral area I hadn't visited yet, so even though we were being called back I rushed to go visit it. It was really big inside, and square, with high cobblestone walls and a single statue. I tried to take a picture of it so I could draw it later but it was too dark. When I walked out of the cathedral it was closing time and people were mopping and some of the Fulbright people had come looking for me. It turned out that we had paid for a certain amount of time in the mansion and since I had taken longer I would be charged for the extra time. It would be 1,800 pesos. I remember feeling worried because I had already used almost all of January's money and couldn't pay the bill.
Then I woke up.
Funny how reality mixes itself in... especially what we're worried about."
