Virtual experience II

Well this is my second post in past one month and second one in my Virtual Experience series as well. This is regarding a strange dream, one which is not easy to be fulfilled, atleast in near future. The dream was about… well you read it out yourself…

It was few days ago when I was strained in office as usual, so had a deep sleep and that gave rise to this post. We usually go for a family trip atleast once in a year and my house will be a planning place for that. In that dream, all my cousins gathered in my house to make such a plan and we had a long discussion to decide on the place to be visited next with a lot of suggestions pouring in. After long time we finally decided a place, scheduled it to be visited after 3 months and were forced to start acting as per plan since we had no much time. Well this time the place was something different, really different. It was called “A trip to the Moon” (lol).

In all trips, we will usually be 30 people but this time only 20-25 people were interested (as I remember). We immediately booked seats with NASA (you heard it right) and were actually in need of one entire space shuttle. They agreed for that with a timeline of 3 months; however we were asked to take rigorous training for a period of month before boarding the shuttle. So came the training period.. We were given trainings both theoretically and practically which would be helpful for us to survive in the moon. Well as I remember, we were asked to sit in sophisticated machines, something that resembled a roller coaster and had a rough ride. All kids were enjoying and the old ones struggled to manage to pass those tests.

Unfortunately, I was waked up by the alarm which I cursed as usual and got up cursing the alarm and with a lot of questions still in my mind. I really wanted to experience (atleast in dream) the life in outer space, that of an astronaut. I wanted to know for how long the trip would last and most importantly, how much would be the total expenditure for the whole trip and many more. Let me try to get answers for such questions when I get similar dream next time. However, the thought of going to moon was just superb by itself. Looking forward for more dreams… Good Night 
