Redemption

For the last ten years I've regularly had nightmares about high school and uni. Dreams where I'm late to exams, in class naked, being made to start again from primary school or being made to do the three subjects I needed to get my first degree and failing them again.

Last night I dreamt that at the start of last year I had, due to my decision to go back to tertiary education, been re-enrolled in the HSC, Even though I didn't go to any classes and didn't sit for any exams I received my new UAI which was 20 points higher than the one I got back in 2000. I still flunked Physics though.

It felt like my subconscious mind has finally forgiven me. The weight of my biggest burden, and biggest regret has finally been lifted from my shoulders.
