Dream Diary Assignment 1. Throughout the course of this term, you need to record THREE dreams in the
Dream Diary Bookcase for your character, all IC of course. Each dream needs to be a minimum of three paragraphs, and each paragraph can be no less than 5 sentences. The more details you give, the more you have to interpret!
2. Speaking of interpreations...DO NOT analyze your dreams in this thread. This is just for keeping a log of your dreams. You'll analyze everything later.
3. You can keep track of your dreams one of two ways: Either make ONE post and edit your three dreams into that one post, or make three seperate posts for each dream. All I ask is that when you pick one way to record your dreams, you STICK with it. Please don't make a post with two dreams and then change your mind and make another one. It's very confusing.
4. You MUST complete these three dreams before the final exam at the end of term. Since that gives you plenty of time to complete this part of the assignment, you cannot get full credit on the final unless you finish this part of the assignment first. Even if you DON'T do the three dreams, you can still TAKE the final exam, you just won't get the full points for it. Savvy?
Oh, and extra dreams will NOT lead to extra credit. Sorry. Feel free to write four or five dreams if you feel like doing so, however. They're fun to read!
5. Here is an example dream:
Quote:
Tonight I had a dream that I went on a walk with my cousin Dan and his pink magenta bullfrog named Winston. In the middle of the walk, we were suddenly interrupted by Death Eaters, who began to do a dance in front of us rather than try to suck out our souls. Still, we were sure this had to be some kind of trap, so we pulled out our wands and sent our patronus' after them. Oddly, my patronus had magically morphed into a bullfrog, which was strange since that is not my usual patronus. Our spells worked and the dementors ran away, never to be seen again.
As soon as we sent the dementors away, the Minister of Magic (who was not Allie Carlton, the current Minister, but Minister Cooper, who has long been out of office) and he began to yell at us like a mad man. He said we'd just run off a new Dementor hybrid. They were called Dancing Dementors that were not for guarding Azkaban, but for entertainment only. Since we scared them off, however, they were never coming back and his plan to entertain prisoners at Azkaban in order to get more votes during re-election was ruined. We tried to offer the man some chocolate as an apology, but he wouldn't take it.
Aurors suddenly appeared at his side and took us to one of the courtrooms in the Ministry, where we learned we were going to be charged with destroying Cooper's hopes at re-election. We had a very good Muggle defense attorney come speak on our behalf, but it was no use and we were sentenced to 30 years in Azkaban. On the way to Azkaban, however, they changed their minds and decided we were better off spending eternity as magenta bullfrogs. Once they transformed us, Winston, Dan's bullfrog, befriended us and brought us to his lily pad home (A lily pad PAD, haha!) and introduced us to his wife Shirley, and we all began new lives out in the Lake at Hogwarts.
6. If you don't follow these instructions, I will deduct a few points from your final score. Yes, you are being graded on reading the rules, so be sure you follow them carefully!
