Into the noise and out

To my new neighbour who is moving in upstairs, I have been waking up to the fantastic sounds of your incessant and ear splitting drilling................ I am currently going nuts. Real nuts. Apparently Queen's "I was born to love you" isn't loud enough to drown you out.

Oh well, life is really weird.

There was a time, I wanted to do an internship, and then I did not get it.
Then came a time I wanted to get a good paying temp job and get to learn stuff.
That time came, and I got a good paying temp job, but I do not feel I'm learning much.
And now, I get called up by a law firm, asking me to do internship.
What??????

For me, the vicissitudes of life has taken form of a wacky dream and pretty much sums up what I feel is heading my way.

Dream scene 1: I was in the law firm office. It used orange lighting, and was kinda odd looking. I was seated in what seemed like a receptionist table, and I thought - I'm doomed, So what I expected all along was right. I'm just here to do shit.

Dream scene 2: I was given particular forms to fill up, and in between I glanced up, taking a better look of the office. I spotted a desk with a lady not too far away from me, and there was a label - Reception. Hm. (I think self-delusion works in dreams too)

Dream scene 3: Asked the person-in-charge, whether the 3 other interns were students like me, or were law students. He said they were law interns. I sensed a certain coughcough evasion from his tone.

Dream scene 4: Somehow a few adults from the law firm was to catch a flight. There was a kid too. This scene is really random. Can't remember much.

Dream scene 5: I happened to find myself in the plane, we have reached our destination and were walking down the landing.. Here.. Is the whole point of the dream.
We were trapped in water(just like the scene in the recent Naruto series, where Gai's students were trapped in that Croc guy's water jutsu) and then I believe minimised through a laser technology. Seconds later, a beam of destructive laser ripped us apart and we turned to ash.

Thank you for your kind attention.

You know how you will find me, pile of ash.
