Hostel of Medicated Girls

DREAMTIME 
Hostel of Medicated Girls
April 20, 2005

I am going away for a trip but it seems like a Mission I am on….and I am packed lightly and in such a way that it seems I am ‘roughing it’. I end up at this place like a hostel….I go around the back….there is a wee boy planting stuff in a big Garden. I am watching him, when two men come out. One of the men reminds me of Lemmy from Motorhead. The men tell the boy that he has planted too many plants, too close together. But I am walking through the garden and I think he has done a great job. There is loads of cabbage and green leafy veg….and most of it is already tall and blooming. Some are still ripening. I am talking to the two men then and they are giving me advice about the ‘Hostel’. I am also asking them about the Garden. I see Fennel and am asking the men if that is what it is, they say ‘Yes, it is very good for you’. I say ‘I love Fennel’. I am thinking the whole time that they are very Down-To-Earth guys and wonder how they ended up here…..in a wee hostel….planting a beautiful Garden. 

There is a fence on the side of the Garden…..and when I look over past it I see that there are many different Gardens all in separate enclosures. I think to myself it is great that the Hostel has room for Gardens and wonder if the 2 men work in all of them, or just this one. At this point I am laying in the garden and have a blanket over me…….still talking to the men, one on each side of me.  The ‘Lemmy’ man seems upset about something and reaches into one of the other Gardens, through a hole in the fence, and pulls out a large Golden Coin, and gives it to me, to use at the Hostel. I thank him. We are out there for quite some time, in the lush Gardens. At some point I see a small growing plant and as what it is…..one of the men says something….then says ‘no, that’s just a weed’. I leave the plant though, not wanting to pull it. As I lift the blanket up, I realize that in the process I have bent over two different plants…..A Flower, and some kind of Vegetable. I prop the Flower up so that it will heal, and stick the broken stem of the vegetable back into the mound of plants so it will re-root. I feel bad for messing them up.  I say goodbye to the men, and leave to check in to the Hostel. 

     On the outside of the Hostel I see a bunch of numbered doors…..in sections. I seem to have been given a certain key/section and am trying to find it. There is a sign on a door that says SISTERHOOD/BROTHERHOOD….and I go inside and see an area where secondhand clothes are hanging and for sale. I go to the counter to check in, etc. There are Girls everywhere. They all seem to be ‘outcasts’ in some way. It almost feels like I am in some kind of ‘crazy house’. But I check in anyway, and decide only to check in for a total of 3 Days….I don’t know how long it will take me to accomplish my Mission, and I do not want to pay for more time Here than I need to stay. I am speaking with the woman at the desk for awhile and sorting it all out....the payment etc. All the girls seem to be watching me. It ends up costing 25Pound (GBP)…and I hand her green Dollar Bills(USD) and they are all out of order…?...this does not seem to be acceptable payment. Then I remember the Gold coin that I was given in the Garden, and I hand it to the woman….it is worth exactly 25Pound. Its very heavy and a bright Gold….She is happy to get the coin, and I take back the dollars. She gives me a room number. 
    
I am then with all the girls, and they are very loud and rowdy and it seems that almost all of them are there against their Will. I ask for a toilet and accidentally go into the Mens room….decide to try and pee anyway…but an older man who is kind of spooky and weird comes in and gets really close to me….so I run out and find the girls bathroom. There are a few toilets out in the open. I have already defecated and now need to take a piss……and I see some toilets that are actually enclosed so I make my way to them instead of the others. The bathroom is not very clean. I go into one stall that has a drain in the floor….and a sign that says ‘ONLY HOT WATER DOWN DRAIN’….I decide that pee is quite warm and so I squat and am going to pee….the door to the stall is half open….and the stall is very large. A girl peeks under the door to see if the stall is occupied….then leaves. Then another girl closes my stall door so that no one can see inside. I am still squatting above the drain trying to pee.   The girls all seem very curious about me. 
   
Next thing I know I am making friends with a couple of the girls. Then we all get on a big bus, to go on some kind of group Trip….I am asking someone something about Warrenton….I think that I see my highschool boyfriend JD on the bus, but realize it is not him, the person is too small to be him. A girl who looks like Jennifer Ellison (actress) comes and sits down on my seat next to me. She is trying to be really tough. I have a rolled up picture/artwork in my hand….the picture that I drew for Mickey D…..and she grabs it and throws it out the open bus window…….but it comes right back in and lands in my hand. She is amazed. I say to her something about ENERGY….that I have the Healing Power….and that she cannot hope to do anything Negative to me. She is then intrigued and sits and listens….and like all the other girls has decided to be my friend.   We stop at the destination which is another large Hostel-type building….  All the girls here are treated quite badly I have learned and it is more or less a crazyhouse. I decide I have to help them. The staff are friendly but manipulative. The girls are forced to take medications etc. We are all in a locker room….and the staff come in with all this Halloween Candy…..handing it out to the girls. I have the definite awareness/knowing that the candy is Medicated, and I have told the girls beforehand all about it….and that the reason they all think they are crazy is because they have been Fed that crap, and since the staff themselves are Unmedicated….they perceive all the girls to be Abnormal/Crazy because of the state they are in due to the consumption of the drugs/medications that are hidden in the candy. But now the Girls are ready to turn the tables….while the staff are handing out the meds/candy….I myself am accepting it too but sneaking a piece each in their back pockets(of the staff)….mostly tootsie rolls….somehow that means that they will find it later and end up consuming it themselves…..swallowing their own medicine. I say ‘let them see how it feels’. Then I still have a handful of candy and a staff member says something to the effect that it comes out of my room payment…or is added on to my bill??...I say ‘I thought it was free….a Gift?’….she says NO, it is not…and I throw the candy across the floor and say I do not want it. Then all the other girls Rebel too. They seem to be gaining confidence. I am happy about what I am doing. It seems that I am getting close to my Destination/where I was headed though and ready to check out………as it turns out I was the only one there who was there voluntarily.
