What is it about?

This is how Rotten Tomatoes describes this anime (animated) movie:

Sent from her foster home in the city one summer to a sleepy town by the sea in Hokkaido, Anna dreams her days away among the marshes.

She believes she’s outside the invisible magic circle to which most people belong – and shuts herself off from everyone around her, wearing her “ordinary face”.

Anna never expected to meet a friend like Marnie, who does not judge Anna for being just what she is.

But no sooner has Anna learned the loveliness of friendship than she begins to wonder about her newfound friend…

Based on the novel by Joan G. Robinson, When Marnie Was There is the newest film from Studio Ghibli, and the second feature film by Hiromasa Yonebayashi, the director of The Secret World of Arrietty.

Having Class In The MZ Baptist Church Parking Lot?

I can only remember part of the end of my last dream from last night, and the dream took place during a gray day in an outdoor/somewhat indoor classroom with desks and maybe a partial wall in the parking lot of the MZ Baptist Church.

I was a student in this class of children and adults including the actor Patrick Stewart, Ice Cube (O’Shea Jackson Sr.), maybe my former classmate DH, a man with whitish-color skin with medium-to-dark color hair who was probably from somewhere in Europe, an under-sized girl (who the teacher probably nicknamed Little Suzy) with whitish-color skin with yellow hair who wore glasses who probably had a physical disability and learning disability, and more.
