Really weird dream interpretation? Oatmeal mistaken as drugs?

Question

Alright, I had a dream, I was working on a project in a small closet-sized room for my L.A. class. For some reason, we weren't working in the actual classroom, for some reason we were in that small room.

The bell rings and I scurry to put my red binder up. My teacher goes into the small room I was in, studies my media box (which is full of markers and colored pencils). She has this dude in a white uniform come in and take my media box for criminal investigation thinking that there were drugs in there*. I get really stressed out and I wake up.

* (This actually happened:)I went on vacation to Florida, and I wanted to pack my nintendo ds and my ipod in my media box, so, I stored all of my media in an empty oatmeal container. When I came back, I dumped all of my media back into it's proper place and a little leftover uncooked oatmeal was dumped in it. I have yet to clean that out though.

In the dream, my teacher thought the leftover oatmeal was some sort of drug. IDK, that's why I'm asking you what the heck was going on in my head last night.

Answer 1

Just a little useful paranoia so you remember to clean all the residue out of your media box.......after all the government is a bit focused on white powder.....  

Answer 2

working on a project = responsibilities

being in a small room instead =  limitation, losing confidence

media box being taken for investigation = doubtful, losing trust.

First of all, the media box experience you have is based on your actual experience.  You put all the games stuff in the box and that somehow translates into symbol of doubts, responsibilities and limitation.

Projecting yourself in a small room instead may symbolize something in your life that you feel losing confidence, being investigated as drug added the evidence of uncertainty.

In translation, maybe something happened to you late that caused you less confident.  You may be feeling doubtful and that is why you had this dream vent out your feelings
