I was in Dr. Rosenbaum's office doing eye tests in a dark examination room. He asked me what numbers I saw, and I told him the ones I saw through the left eye and the ones I saw through the right eye. He was fascinated that I could choose which eye to look through. I could do something he hadn't seen in his entire career.
Real life: eye doctors are always testing to see which eye is dominant, and I tell them that I can choose which one I want to look through - I can choose the outcome of their test - but they never care. (random.)

I was shopping with Grandpa for a new remote control accessory for my house. I wanted this device that would make our remote controls secure, so that not just anyone could bring a remote control into our house and start controlling our stuff. To put this in terms that Grandpa would understand, I explained to him that I would be vulnerable if everyone in the world had a remote that they could control me with, and that I only wanted one person - my mom, for example - to be able to control me. This he understood perfectly. So I showed him the box of the devise that I wanted to buy. I read the features off the box for him. At this point in the dream I don't know who we were buying this thing for. But Grandpa said he would like this for his home. I advised against it, since it wasn't something he would need, or it was something he already had. But he said all those fun things [the features that I read off] can't hurt and are always fun to play around with. I felt sad because I knew that he didn't know what any of those things meant, and that it would just be a waste of money. He wanted it though, and I couldn't say no.
Oh, how this does NOT accurately represent how things are or how I feel in real life.

I was ditching Foothill and spending the day at the beach with Mom and some undefined people. I don't know if the O'Dells were at the beach with us, working for the school, or both. But Mom caught me using my phone and she told me that I needed to turn it off, because Foothill tracked our phones. If they saw what I was using my phone for, they would somehow know that I was ditching school for an illegitimate reason. I turned it off. More things happened - I don't remember what. I just remember having strange feelings about my phone. Wait - I do remember one thing. We were expecting a call back from the school that would mean that I was cleared for my absence. My mom and I figured that since Derek O'Dell was working in the office, and since he was our friend, he might not have bothered to call us back since it was just implied he would clear me. We couldn't be sure, though.
