School days (Школьные дни)

I wasn’t feeling well yesterday and, because I had a high temperature, my mum said I had to go to bed. After about five minutes, I fell fast asleep and I had a really strange dream. In my dream, I was walking to school. I was really late, so I decided to take a short cut through the woods. I walked through the woods for a long time but the school still seemed to be far away in the distance. I decided to run but I realised I couldn’t run very quickly. It was like I was running in slow motion – like in a movie. I began to panic. Then I heard my teacher, Mr Hickson, say in a deep voice, ‘If you don’t get to school in the next three minutes, you’ll be in big trouble.’ I was terrified. Suddenly, I saw my school up ahead. I ran as quickly as I could – through the doorway, up the stairs and into Mr Hickson’s classroom. He was counting backwards from three minutes. ‘Five seconds … four … three … two,’ he said. I made it to my seat just in time. It had been a narrow escape, and all the other kids in the class clapped. I guess my dream means something, but I’ve got no idea what. Any ideas?

Перевод: Вчера я плохо себя чувствовал, и, поскольку у меня была высокая температура, мама сказала, что мне нужно лечь спать. Примерно через пять минут я крепко уснул, и мне приснился очень странный сон. Во сне я шёл в школу. Я очень опаздывал, поэтому решил срезать путь через лес. Я долго шёл через лес, но школа всё ещё казалась далёкой. Я решил бежать, но понял, что не могу бежать быстро. Казалось, будто я бегу в замедленном движении — как в кино. Я начал паниковать. Затем я услышал, как мой учитель, мистер Хиксон, сказал низким голосом: «Если ты не доберёшься до школы в следующие три минуты, у тебя будут большие неприятности». Я был в ужасе. Вдруг впереди я увидел школу. Я побежал изо всех сил — через дверной проём, вверх по лестнице и в класс мистера Хиксона. Он отсчитывал время от трёх минут. «Пять секунд… четыре… три… два», — сказал он. Я успел занять своё место как раз вовремя. Это было чудесное спасение, и все остальные дети в классе захлопали. Думаю, мой сон что-то значит, но я понятия не имею что. Есть идеи?
