          Last night, I had a nightmare and I still feel scared thinking about it now.  In my dream, I was getting on the bus.  After I paid my fare I looked for a place to sit down.  It was then I realised that everyone on the bus was staring at me.  Not only that, they weren’t human, they were zombies!   The bus was already moving now, I couldn’t get off.  I thought, should I dare to jump off the moving bus?  The zombies were walking towards me now, closer and closer!  I didn’t care anymore, I decided to jump out of the window of the bus.  At that moment, I woke up.  I was on my bedroom floor.
