I had set a goal to achieve good grades to get a gift promised by my parents which would be anything of my choice. I always dreamt and wanted to have a puppy. It all started on the 4th of October at 8:00 am the day before my exams. I was in my bedroom studying for my first exam paper which was commerce. While I was studying a thought crossed my mind. “Are my dreams going to turn into reality, if I answer all my papers exceedingly well and pass out with high grades?” With this thought I rushed to my parents bedroom and told them that I am definitely going to pass out with high grades and questioned them whether they would keep their promise. The reply I t was very assertive. That gave me the zest to study very hard. I came to my room and said to myself that I can make it. I began with my studies so seriously that I barely took breaks so much so that I went asleep while I was studying. During that short nap I had a dream. In my dream I imagined myself in my bedroom listening to music and my parents just entered my room. I was wondering if I was in trouble or if I did anything wrong. It took me by surprise when my mom placed a big box on my bed. All of a sudden I woke up and heard my mom calling me down for dinner, thereafter took a break and went back to my room to study.
Knowing that tomorrow was my first paper I decided to go to bed early and wake up fresh. Finally it was the day of my first exam, I was completely nervous and tensed, but was determined to do my best. While I was answering my paper I was very delighted as I answered the paper very well. After school I went home and declared to my parents that the paper was fantastic. The exams went on for a week, but I was not comfortable with my math’s and science papers although I tried my best. As the days passed by it was time for my results. My parents and I went to school to collect my report card. We met the teacher; she was overall happy with my results but said that I could have done much better in maths and science. This disappointed me very much and I said to myself “I lost my opportunity of getting a puppy inspite of me getting good grades in other subjects.” My parents were happy with the efforts I put in but told me that I should take more interest in these two subjects and realize my dreams. On our way back home I asked my parents if I could get my reward – my dream puppy. My parents answered me that though they were happy with my overall performance and that they were very proud of me I have not yet got the grades to get rewarded with a puppy. I felt very sad but accepted it as I too was not happy with the results of my two dreaded papers – Science and Maths. When we went back home I was still wondering how it would feel to have a puppy.
The Essay on Dream Study Dreams Sleep Rem
Dream Study by Alex Ryaboy Although there have been many psychological and scientific explanations, nobody knows for sure what dreams are. Each generation comes up with new interpretations of dreams. About a third of a normal lifetime is spent sleeping, and much of that time is spent dreaming (MacKenzie 8). Some believe that dreaming occurs during the REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. Others believe ...
I just had to forget about it and try for my next exams – the finals of grade 9. I have told myself that this is the best challenge for me to do better the next time and am confident that I won’t let my parents down. In the evening my parents decided to go out but I wasn’t in the mood, so only my parents went and I kept thinking to myself only if I had done better in those two papers I would have my dream realized. After about an hour my parents returned and came up to my room saying that they had a surprise for me. I began to wonder is it the puppy?? but then I saw a small box realizing that a puppy couldn’t fit in it. When I opened it, it was an Iphone 6 with 128GB it took me by surprise but I was so thankful to my parents. The Iphone was the next best thing that I could get as I wanted one the moment it was launched. Am happy at what I was rewarded and this experience has made me stronger to perform well and get the best grades to fulfill my long awaited dream – having a puppy, and am confident that I will in my next exams.
