I had a dream about school that wasn't a nightmare

I had a dream about getting a PhD last night, and it wasn’t a bad dream. After having done two master’s degrees, an MA in history and an MBA in international business, I said no fucking way I was ever going back to school. I’ve had plenty school dreams since then, none of them fun. I showed up for a math exam not knowing the formulas, or an English exam asking me to describe character motivations for a book I never read. I failed the midterm and would have to really kick ass on the final but I was so busy why don’t I drop out why am I taking another fucking undergraduate degree that’s stupid I should drop out why am I not allowed to drop out fuck school I hate school.
