Being Ill-Prepared for Quizzes

It seems that dreams about showing up for a final exam that you haven't studied for are fairly common, and I certainly have my share of them. In one dream, I somehow got sidetracked and totally spaced out about the class. Only when I remembered to get back to the class, it was time for a test, and of course, I was totally lost. In another dream, during a test (after being away from college for many years and then somehow returning to a class I haven't been to for years), I snapped at the teaching assistant, "Excuse me, I was having a life. So I didn't have time to study for this, sue me!"
