Okay I thought I should explain my dream, since it's the most coherent one I've had in a long time. It's filled with hidden symbolism too :O In the dream, I got pretty freaked out when I saw the lift buttons because all the clues suddenly made sense - I hadn't understood anything that was happening before that.
1. There was a jolt before the numbers started flashing and the lift shot up into the sky, right? That was when we all died - when the corporeal lift switched to the "soul lift". From then on we were separated from our physical selves.
2. MapleStory portal-like doors -- pretty obvious why.
3. I realised at the end of the dream that the principal wasn't a REAL principal - he was God personified! The nice lady was a random angel.
4. The computer lab we stepped into wasn't just a computer lab. It was basically a huge Room Of Requirement which could transform itself into any individual's idea of heaven. Which explained why there was this guy swinging around on bamboo parts in another room- it must have been his dying wish.
(Sidenote: Am I really THAT attached to my computer?!)
5. Duh about the vegetarian food. Of course all the nice people in heaven wouldn't want animals to suffer.
Anyway, I had pretty mixed feelings when I got to the end of my dream. More horrified than anything, though, because I realised that I was trapped in Heaven and I'd never be able to see my family again - we were allowed to go home the day before to see them for the last time. My parents apparently didn't realise I wasn't human anymore O.o But I was also rather relieved, because that meant I'd been a nice enough person to qualify for admission to Heaven.
Oh and one more unnerving thing was watching all my friends and people I knew writing their names in the registration book and entering Heaven School. We were the first in the computer lab, but by the end of my dream the lab was half full X.x Apparently a day in Heaven = many years on Earth.
