👦🏫 Who: Philip H. from Gastonia, NC

💬 The experience: In eighth grade, a friend and I had gotten into a little game with the science teacher. There were three watches without wristbands we would hide in his classroom, and he would find them and hide them in our homeroom. The alarms would be turned on so that they would basically be taunting you for not being able to find them. 

Well, on one occasion, we had been looking but couldn't find the watches. But one night, I had a dream where I looked under my desk and found a watch. The next morning, I remembered my dream and thought to look under my desk – lo and behold, there was a watch, taped to the underside of my desk. I've been a little wary of dreams ever since...
