There's a college reunion that I'm attending. Then there's this guy, who holds my hand, he is like a lover or something. Then he leads me to cross the street. Then celebration...familiar faces: Bjorn and others. And then my former friends. Then suddenly, a life-size niche is at the back...the engraving says: 97 psychic life cycle. Then a guest is in front, an egyptian Goddess. Then a prof of mine calls me and asks to guess her name. And I'm like, "why me?" then everyone is looking at me. Then they make samples...a lot of people walk near me and then in a banquet table, put every harvest they have. Then I realize, it's the goddess of harvest.
