I had a dream the other night about inter- | viewing an actor. The interview went awesome and the actor in question got me a seat in the | audience so I could watch the play again. Then he | invited me backstage to party with the cast, soon | we got bored and decided to go out for drinks, just | the two of us. We talked about ourselves then he walked me home and kissed me. He agreed to be - a guest director for my play if I would have dinner | with him. Then I woke up.

My | boyfriend and my roommate had an affair, which resulted in her carrying his baby. The strange part _ | isthat they had my blessing! I know my roommate > and my boyfriend are only friends in real life, so what could this dream be telling me?

Iam invariably discovered | by my freshman advisor. He stands in front of me, | pointing and howling in laughter. Does this mean | Lam harbouring secret fantasies of voyeurism? »?Fashion Conscious” Dear Fashion Conscious: By running naked, you are expressing your desire to | disobey the rules of your parents and that you want to be true to your self and become an English major. As | for your freshman advisor... Every night I dream about becoming a vigilante | and bombing the National offices of CUP.(The | Candian University Press, especially the advertis- ing department.)
