In this dream, I may be in grade school or high school. Whatever the case may be, I was competing in an art contest where students were to draw pictures on a blackboard in front of a live audience.
I was watching the other students draw and I had to admit, their drawings were beautiful. At the time, I wondered what I'd be drawing. I figured that since I had an interest in architecture, I'd draw houses and/or buildings. I don't know why, but instead of drawing a single edifice, I decided to draw a street scene and a cityscape.
This reminds me of the time I was in high school. Every time class elections were held, I was always chosen as the secretary. That meant, I kept track of students' daily attendance on the blackboard. It was during a homeroom period that we had nothing to do and I was told to "decorate" the attendance section. With chalk in hand, I filled the blackboard with X-wing fighters from the movie Star Wars and the Chrsyler Building from the movie Q. (Back then, I mistook the Chrysler Building for the Empire State Building.)
This is more than I can say for my dream. When it was my turn to draw, I found that I didn't know how to draw a street scene or a cityscape!
P.S.: This dream also came true...sort of. I'm currently working on a couple of comic book illustrations that I'll be submitting to the Viper Comics Talent Search '09.
