My Superpower In My Dream

So you know how when people dream, they usually dream of themselves being this greater than life kind of superhero. Well, last year, I had one of those dreams. It was the first in a very long time since I had such a dream. The last time I dreamt of something like that was when I was around 7 or 8, I dreamt that I was part of the Power Rangers and that the house next door was under attack by some kungfu ninjas (it was either ninjas or monsters. it might be monsters though. owh give me a break. i was just 7 or 8. how can i remember so specifically). And since then I continued to fool myself into believing that that wasnt a dream and that it was a prophecy. The fact that we played power ranger in the school grounds did not help much with snapping me out of fantasy land as well. But eventually as I begin to grow up, I begin to forget that I was a power ranger. Instead, I start to perspire to become a ballet dancer. Well, that is a completely different story.

SO back to this dream I had last year. I was walking in the park opposite my language school and the next thing I know, after jumping a little, I realized that my legs were like springs and that I could jump high into the sky. Yeap, imagine that. My superpower was merely the ability to jump like a spring. So unfair. Why cant I be something cooler like maybe a superman or batman or at least a psychic. Geez. That was after all my dream. And the worse part of the dream was I kept getting caught up in the electric cables that was hanging from one pole to the other. I remember cause I thought to myself what a crappy plot for a superhero dream.

So after waking up, I decided that I was not satisfied with the dream. So I went back to sleep. And the next thing I know, I am running down the staircase of my language school. We were being under attack by some invaders ( i am not sure if they were human or aliens or ninjas (what's the deal with me and ninjas) ). And we were completely surrounded and there was no way to escape.

The only thing left to do was to climb out through the window and escape by jumping off a three floor building. But lucky for me, I had the springy jumpy superpower so I could save a few of my classmates. After that, I cant remember what happened. Everything was rather blurry.

When I woke up, I realized I was late again for class. How typical. And the dream wasn't even worth being late for class. Well, at least, there was a happy ending. Sort of.
