dream diary: entry for 6 November 2007

i was at a wedding rehearsal. it was Kat's wedding, at some big old church. people were fitting for their dresses and marching up and down the aisle. the church was full, as though it were the actual wedding day already, but it was evening and everyone was just milling about. though there were lights, the church was dim, and not festive.

there seemed to be a dais up front where the altar was. various people would ascend to announce things, and Anna and her younger sister, Jenny, went up and shared the mic to say some things, i know not what. they were dressed in fluffy white gowns, with puff sleeves and ruffles on the hem.

i was wandering around, now and again clutching Kat's arm to ask a question or make a comment. someone called an elderly lady to the stage, and Kat and i saw from afar that she wore a brilliant, sparkling dress, ever so lovely. we stepped near to take a look, but upon closer inspection it appeared she was only wearing a silvery blouse with many tassels, and jeans. we wondered how she could have changed so quickly. she walked down a side aisle to the altar, her face old and uncertain.

i went over near the doors on the left side, and saw a friend preparing something for the wedding day. i think she was my classmate, and i was a project we had to do. it had something to do with music, so i went with her and her father to their house in BF.

we tried working, but to no avail. at last i said i had to leave, and besides my classmate was feeling lazy anyway. i picked up my things and stepped out of their house, onto a quiet, shaded street, near a bend where the road forked. it seemed to be a small road in a small community, very quiet and very homely. but i didn't know how to get out. i only knew i had to go north.

i got on a tricycle. i don't remember what i said, but he brought me to what appeared to be a terminal. the tricycle passed through a small driveway, and turned into a small jeep. not an owner-type jeep, but just a short jeepney. i had no idea where i was supposde to go; i could only hope that they would bring me to the McDonald's in BF. then Patton got on the jeep, carrying many packages, so many that he had to pay for a seat just so he had someplace to put them.
